    This is an interesting twist, rather like clash of the titans.
    Memories of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker light sabres in hand, a duel to the death if you don't mind. Maybe we have gone full circle and the apprentice is ready to challenge the master!! Only on mse folks....

    Actually, you're right. You're the coolest.

    Perfectly judged. Do I say "yes I know", or pretend not to have noticed. Do I say "au contraire mon fis, you are the special one". Do I heck as like. False modesty is probably the best. "Oh no, shucks, that can't be right".

    Medals, stars - I don't know. I always thought people with loads of them (no offence anybody) were probably lacking in something. However I like to think that since my promotion yesterday I have gained a certain gravitas. Although I have not, as yet, noticed any additional respect paid to me by other members (you know who you are).

    Nope in previous times we would all be down the pub wallowing in the mire. At least we would have the satisfaction of knowing that we were keeping the pub in business and leaving with a warm glow..........:beer:

    They are the one and same person, they just don't know it yet...

    Which one believes that not only can you live without material needs, but that self-destruction, the collapse of society and making dynamite from soap might not be such a bad idea???
