Quote of the Day..

To Laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch.. to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeded! -- Emerson

Good think learning to spell isn't required for success.

I didn't even look at the spelling. I Just cut and pasted from the source. Guess I'm guilty and have been caught by the grammar police

Rowdy,

An inspirational message. Was that in one of your many (I'm sure) get-well cards.

As for the spelling, the first spelling mistake I found was in Grimey's post...
"Good think learning to spell isn't required for success"

Glad to hear that you are feeling much better.

Sick Boy: It's certainly a phenomenon in all walks of life.
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: What do you mean?
Sick Boy: Well, at one time, you've got it, and then you lose it, and it's gone forever. All walks of life: George Best, for example. Had it, lost it. Or David Bowie, or Lou Reed...
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Some of his solo stuff's not bad.
Sick Boy: No, it's not bad, but it's not great either. And in your heart you kind of know that although it sounds all right, it's actually just shite.
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: So who else?
Sick Boy: Charlie Nicholas, David Niven, Malcolm McLaren, Elvis Presley...
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: OK, OK, so what's the point you're trying to make?
Sick Boy: All I'm trying to do is help you understand that The Name of The Rose is merely a blip on an otherwise uninterrupted downward trajectory.
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: What about The Untouchables?
Sick Boy: I don't rate that at all.
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Despite the Academy Award?
Sick Boy: That means @#$! all. The sympathy vote.
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Right. So we all get old and then we can't hack it anymore. Is that it?
Sick Boy: Yeah.
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: That's your theory?
Sick Boy: Yeah. Beautifully fucking illustrated.

A Trainspotter ???
The worst toilet in Scotland

Have you seen that other Scottish classic 'Acidhouse'
A similar theme of poverty drugs sex and despair dark humour mixed with a little violence.Kinda like a saturday night out in Auld reekie

Makes some reservations look like paradise
