Thanks for clarifying, hope there's no hard feelings [img]smile.gif[/img]
Just for the record, I am a very direct, practical, down to earth sort of person. I tend to read things in a direct and literal way, so if I see a post like that I will almost certainly assume that what is written is exactly what was meant. I have a warped and very lively sense of humour, but I find it difficult to tell when someone is joking if they are doing so in a 'deadpan' fashion! (Just ask any of The Collective about the winged termites ;) ) I appreciate that not everyone communicates in the same way, but I do sometimes miss subtleties because of my very direct nature. It's a bit of a nuisance sometimes, I'm a crap liar too!

</font>[/QUOTE]Heh heh. Of course there are no hard feelings Epona m'dear [img]smile.gif[/img]
It's hard to pick up tone/inflection/sarcasm in written language. So I should really be taking more care to indicate when I am and when I'm not being serious in my posts.
It's all good [img]smile.gif[/img] I think we've all learned something here today kids. Just what that something is is probably markedly different from person to person but ah well. So long as we're learning.

Would it be possible for you to list your experiences of Pitbulls, Ninjas, landmines and, most especially, dismemberings
The landmines were my advice. Wiring them up was part of what I learned in the military. Only we called them anti personell devices since landmines are illegal according to some silly set of rules for a freaking war. With $15 worth of materials and a little know how you can wire anything from a rock to a car sterio to an optical mouse to a fountail pen to explode on contact or with a timer.
