oh lets all see how we can out do each other with words........... next some bright spark will come up with "Brasierre" and all the old fools of the grey room will lay around helplessly riddled with mirth, as if they were 13 once more (or indeed in the VR)
How OLD do we have to be before we all revert back to the mindset of the VR? When do we truly regress into idiotic self absorbed carefree youth?
(please say soon!) |
That'd be "brassiere".  *snort chortle chortle guffaw*

Revert? That implies we grew up in the first place 
Personally, the day I no longer find nob jokes & fart gags funny is the day I'll be happy for someone to nail me in my coffin.

So how did the Auster Aiglet get it's name then, Dean?
I don't think it has anything to do with shoelaces, that's for sure.
And yes, I did have to look up Aglet.
But I didn't have to look up Auster Aiglet.
|
Aiglet is an alternative spelling of aglet and means the same thing. My theory is someone at Auster was asked to come-up with a name that began with "A" and hadn't been used before - he reached the "Ai" section of the dictionary before stopping.
However, what's this got to do with the price of lawnmowers?

 Okay: pics added to photobucket!
Now, how to post a photo here?
How do I post the pic itself (& not just the link)?

Aha!
That's a view from atop a mountain which my kids and I climbed, in Gros morne National park, on Newfoundland's scenic west coast.
Yes, that's snow in the distance -- those mountains top out at over 800 meters.
