"Even if it's fubar?" "Especially if it's fubar!" A nice easy one for yas. Don't poo poo conspiracy theories. Remember that everything ever discovered started somewhere as a theory. |

Well, I suppose I will have to let you have that - I looked in the movies page of my local paper. Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

I think it's StarWars Episode IV, the first one where they head into that town looking for a freighter. Oh I feel old.... ![]() |

Bingo! Ben Kenobi talking to Luke Skywalker on the outskirts of Mos Eisley. The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, the second best time is right now. JAQ |

Just discovered this thread ![]() Ok heres my favourite famous quote (not from TV or movie though - sorry Grogs), but like anything, easy if you know: "I may be drunk, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly." Back to 'absorb' more of Geoff's liquid recommendation - hic! (I'm even listening to UB40 'Red, Red wine' at the moment) |

Private Ryan is correct. Now I gotta come up with another one.... OK..this one is not a spoken quote, but appears in film as some graffiti. ( in almost the ending scene.) "Up yours, baby." and tagged by Kilroy. Don't poo poo conspiracy theories. Remember that everything ever discovered started somewhere as a theory. |

Pretty soon Glenn will find his server overflowing and this forum becoming a Mecca for film lovers instead of an F&P & RE site! Have tax problems and am sour and cannot participate in the fun! Taxation as a means of achieving prosperity is like a man standing inside a bucket trying to lift himself up. Winston Churchill |

Its good harmless fun. Besides the forum hasn't really been about RE and F&P for a while, the sites growing, and is more "Back Shed", which can cover a range of stuff. The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, the second best time is right now. JAQ |

Glenn, Good to read that. Did you read one of the latest Silicon Chip letters to the editor? In one of the letters a contributor has been working on Chinese-built stuff and like you in a much earlier rant on this forum complains about lack of standards in the equipment. From memory he criticises cabling standards and a whole host of other things. It is only when larger importers, like Walmart, etc. demand local electrical/electronic standards that the Chinese manufacturer has to oblige.

Too true Dom. In light of the sad news of Robin Williams passing, I thought we should try a few quotes from some of his movies. "Okay, mister. All right, show's over. Now, you put that thing away! Now, put it down before you poke somebody's eye out." The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, the second best time is right now. JAQ |

I'm glad about that. I did wonder after I stated this thread, if it was......appropriate. Yes, on the Robin Williams thing - truly sad. ![]() I have no idea on the one you posted, Gizmo, but I add one of my own: Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |
