Oh, it's a public holiday for me my dear - but I am about to make a run into work in the next 15 minutes - someone forgot to take home the power cord for his work laptop for the long weekend, and he's also the one that scored weekend duty (sigh) [img]graemlins/troutslap.gif[/img]

So, did you like my riddle - huh - didja, didja, didja???



Don't think I haven't considered a formal protest . But it turned out okay, the lecture was scheduled from 2-4, but only lasted until 3 since it was the first day and all .

Did I like your riddle? I liked the way it rhymed . Though how anyone could get soap on a rope from that I have no idea [img]tongue.gif[/img]

At the request of Davros:

A man is opening a Bed & Breakfast place and is having a new sign made (saying 'Bed and Breakfast') His instruction to the sign writer is:

I want the distance between the words bed and and, and and and breakfast to be two inches.
