"..... comparable to the buried horse. "What buried horse ??Edit - Just thought - is this the one we were all flogging earlier ??:-lol

Yeah, he don't do so good with Americanisms.. Like "Don't hold your breath" as in don't hold your breath waiting for it to happen, or the reverse "Hold Your Breath" as in go ahead, hold your breath cause its going to happen soon.The reference to the buried horse comes from "This horse has been beat to death". I thought that was an easy one. :-lolGeez, am I so obtuse that my humor is lost on everyone??? :)

Ooops I edited mine whilst you were posting by the look of things !!!That is a new one on me .. guess that it has not made it to this side of the pond yet !!!!

Tom,Let's just hope the Aussies and Scots don't decide to regale us with some of THEIR humor, nuch mess the Nordes!. :-lol

Yeah, or the Fijians and their jokes about tree crabs. Man, talk about obtuse!

So what was the question ???????????? :-hmmm :-hmmmI don't mind being made fun off... but I want to be able to grin about it as well.... ;-) :-outta Francois :-wave

Sorry Francois, the my original post made the point about Tom asking you to hold your breath - but I changed it when I edited it !!!

:-lol :-lol That's what I figured.Now to figure out a way to make Tom know when I am joking as opposed to the times I really have no clue what he is on about... :-hmmm :-hmmm :-lol :-outta Francois :-wave[table border=0 cellpadding=10 cellspacing=0][tr][td valign=bottom" align="center]"At home in the wild"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:avsim.com/alaska/alaska_051.htm|Don's Alaskan Bush Charters]"Beavers Lead the Way"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:www.avsim.com/vfr_center/mainpages/vfr_flights_main_page.htm]VFR Flight Center]"Looking Good Outside"[/td][/tr][tr][td valign=top" align="center]http://avsim.com/hangar/air/bfu/logo70.gif[/td][td valign="top" align="left" colspan=2]http://www.fssupport.com/images/moose2.gif[/td][tr][/table]________________________Francois A.

Haha, put it in binary; everyone can read binary :-)

Nope.. only techno-weenie-geek-azoids can read binary. I can't read binary, therefore, I ain't one of those... :)

LOL... wouldn't work for me either. I forgot long time ago about binary strings and hex dumps...... and I never was much good at it to start with. Nope, I'll have to find another way of communicating with Tom. Pictures would work probably.... I try that via the BFU jobs....:ahem:... and sometimes write angry emails too... :-lol :-lol But then he thinks I am French, or much worse; Belgian :-(Nah... pictures work best!!Here's my new pet Tom... he STRONG !!! So everybody be warned !!!http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/3d08b9db6825c07a.jpg :-outta Francois :-wave[table border=0 cellpadding=10 cellspacing=0][tr][td valign=bottom" align="center]"At home in the wild"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:avsim.com/alaska/alaska_051.htm|Don's Alaskan Bush Charters]"Beavers Lead the Way"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:www.avsim.com/vfr_center/mainpages/vfr_flights_main_page.htm]VFR Flight Center]"Looking Good Outside"[/td][/tr][tr][td valign=top" align="center]http://avsim.com/hangar/air/bfu/logo70.gif[/td][td valign="top" align="left" colspan=2]http://www.fssupport.com/images/moose2.gif[/td][tr][/table]________________________Francois A.
