I know. Even some of the recent Poppy Day (veterans) collections were stolen, which is lower than snake-belly low I'm really surprised that there isn't much vigilante-ism Although this tagger got his just desserts, to most peoples' delight http://www.nzherald.co.nz/topic/story.cfm?c_id=500849&objectid=10509312 NZ has changed a lot in the last few years -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist |

Yeah, well I think I enjoy using it more than the child did.

Here is an strange bicycle theft story...
My dad was a policeman in Buffalo, NY. The federal government instituted a program where they funded police cars that would be taken home by policemen, something about a more visible police presence in the community. Well, one evening my dad's police cruiser was parked in our driveway while we ate supper. Some lowlife actually walked past the car into our back yard to steal my brand-new 10-speed English racer bicycle.

> we ate supper Recently had a discussion (heated debate) about words used to describe meals. My Take is Breakfast Usually 7:00 Thats easy First meal of the day. Morning Tea about 9:00 if you had Breaky then this is a snack usually involving tea or coffee Brunch First about 10:00 meal of the day but later than breaky Lunch Usually 12:00 AfterNoon Tea 15:00 same as morning tea Dinner 18:00 Main meal Supper 21:00 a snack before bed I think I have heard Dinner or the main meal refered to as Tea and Supper so I figure it must be a local use thing.

When we used to visit my (now long since dead) grandmother, if she served a hot meal at midday, she would refer to is as "Dinner mid day" Russell > Breakfast Usually 7:00 Thats easy First meal of the day. > Morning Tea about 9:00 if you had Breaky then this is a > snack usually > involving tea or coffee > Brunch First about 10:00 meal of the day but later than > breaky > Lunch Usually 12:00 > AfterNoon Tea 15:00 same as morning tea > Dinner 18:00 Main meal > Supper 21:00 a snack before bed > -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist |
