My thoughts exactly...


"cookies = biscuits

potato chips = crisps

soda = carbonated water mixer for whisky

pop = a mildly alarming soft explosive noise

jelly = Jam (preserved fruit product for spreading in a sandwich)

jello = jelly (gelatinous sugar product that wobbles like a natural breast should)

right, hope that clears it up, now you can all start speaking in proper english....

hehe ;-)

*winks like the chimney sweep in Mary Poppins and disappears into a pavement chalk art painting*

Edit: silly me, forgot one....

Chips = thick fried or oven baked vaguely square lengths of potato. (like french fries, but much thicker) "

You must be...an Englishman! No wonder why they have bad teeth, drive on the WRONG side of the road, left is right; they don't know whats what!

/joke/sarcasm



LOL.....wrong side of the road bit i dunno about as i dont drive (dont need to in London, u cant physically be more than a 5 minute walk to a train station)

the bad teeth bit, thats more because the dentists in this country like to charge a fortune for even something simple like a clean or a filling and even then dont do a proper job as there is no real regulation........

oh and its not the food that gives us bad teeth, its the drink, we consume FAR more alcohol per capita than u guys in the USA.......made me laugh when i came over to USA and realised how quickly you guys get drunk....lol

I haven't seen how much americans can drink, but by god, I'm Canadian and i'll gladly challenge you to a drink!

After looking throughly at your post I have also noticed the following...

"Dell 8400
Pentium 4 3.06GHz HT (800 FSB) "

You cannot possibly have an 800mhz FSB if your chip is running at 3.06Ghz. That is actually the older P4 with the 533Mhz FSB.

So either you might want to change your spec to 3 Ghz or change your FSB to 533!

Bah, im done nitpicking the bone :p
