yeah oz "always look on the bright side of life"

Julie will smile thats its monsieur perfect

who 'ALLEDGEDLY' made a boo boo on his application.

Being from manchester and toronto one has to keep his wit,

now In general I LIKE CANADIANS but their humour is a bit conservative,

face to face.

now the likes of Ackroyd,belushi,murray mike myers ,gilda radner, plus the cbc satires

are really funny, but then they are all "newfies" .

now regarding these forums there are some very serious people.

not much to worry about it seems "we have to hurry up and wait"

'whiteout ' USE sounds like you are Will be interviewed by the "gestapo"

I have a vision of those old grainy WW 2 movies

"PAPERS PAPERS VERE R UR PAPERS"

tHE REBEL in this red devil wants to use whiteout

cos the loverly NVC gal told me I could !!

THAT SHOULD get the panickers typing -- NO NO its a sin !! arf

laters red d

Note: re teachers note....an apple always worked for me :unsure:
