It is now time, for me to share with all, the age-old question: <raised eyebrow, maniacal smile, sweaty knees>
...
How long is a piece of string? <flapping robes, evil cackle>
The answer iiiissss..........


Twice as long as half it's length!
<nonsensical muttering, shuffleing off back to whence I came...>

Bah! Now that you come to mention it... well it it sounded good in my head, and I can never resist a few stage directions. <cautious sideways glances, surruptitious prising of eyes away from keyboard and back to homework>

Uh...huh. Oh well, that's no stranger than some of the rest of us have gotten from time to time.

S'apleasure! <annoying self-rightious grin>, I can also tell you the kicking force of the average full-grown ostrich or the hobbies and interests of most yellow-striped sea slugs, should you be interested... <Knowledgeable snort>

EDIT (from my alter-ego):Don't encourage her or she'll never stop, and this forum will be turned into some kind of twisted sea slug lovers web community!

YES PLEASE! I dated one once, and I never COULD figure out what his hobbies and interests were. I think we had a failure to communicate....
