(I just love this icon, it's fantastic)
I'm OH-less at the moment anyway - his trial for Wed to Fri this week settled on Tuesday evening, so he flew to Israel on Wednesday to see his new-born cousins, and won't be back until Sunday night....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

Er - something like that!
it was an employment tribunal case (he does employment, housing, and benefit law), and once it settled, off he !!!!!!ed!...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
What a fantastic aray of subjects coverered on this thread, with the odd contributer having not read from the beginning, trying to make it serious.
I for one am really impressed that as well as giving great advice most of the time, most people of MSE HBR+S board have got a sense of humour, and a great talent for witty writing.
P.S. It was me that started the decking thing, which then morphed into cheesecake....so.......
thank away..... only need about 944 to get to my 1000!!!:rotfl: :rotfl:0 -

It isn't a very common name. The different spellings we get for him shows this...Izac, Issac, Issacs...
Mind you, I have an Aaron as well, a more common name but equally impossible for most people to spell, it would seem0 -
Mucho appreciated
Really wish I had some skill like NDG law or the likes, great respect to those people that can come up with real advice and financial savvy. I can only offer an opinion from experience that I've gathered over many years (great stuff botox).
Me, I'm just a people person, like to make people smile and hope it spreads a little.
I think after some of the cutting stuff thats been going on, I think thats happened.0 -

Wow, you have a think for double "a"s in names, I reckon!
The mis-spelling we get a lot is "Issac". I think that's from people thinking, "there's a double letter in there somewhere....."...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
