I cant remember where i read it .. but a member of Ironworks has a quote that goes something like this:
Insert text here, but the second mouse gets the cheese. Thought that one was kinda clever, but I cant remember the first part ![]() Anyone care to shed light [img]tongue.gif[/img]

[img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img] Well, yeah .. but not really what I was looking for [img]tongue.gif[/img]
The whole point is that the first part of the saying described an event where the nr.1 gets the prize,.. while the second part of the saying explains that being nr.1 isnt always the best thing. [EDIT] Oops, I think that last one was what I was looking for. Thanx to the both of ya [img]graemlins/shine.gif[/img] [/EDIT] [ 05-03-2003, 04:48 PM: Message edited by: daan ]
