I have no sense of humour but I felt bad for you and added some positive rep. Looks like it wasn't enough, though. You're still at zero.

I'm an expert on rubber. That's not a joke. There's nothing funny about rubber.

Try checking into a hotel for a meeting of the Statistics and Forecasting Committee of the Rubber Association of Canada, or Rubber Manufacturers of America. I've heard them all.

Rubber chickens are marginally funny, but in my hands they lose all humour.

Poopdeck - you need to help me out, then. Because without a sense of humour I never know when to laugh. I can trade you rubber statistics for your help if you're interested.

Hyperion, the first thing we need to work on is your issues with rubber chickens.

Once you can amuse yourself with a rubber chicken, then we can move on, this IS basic RC 101 stuff



PS: As a side bar to this expert advice, choking the chicken does not count

On this, my 900th post (I need a life) I must say that
I am nothing but a cabin boy on a ship of fools, setting sail in a sea of mediocrity.
That and an ass, full of crap...
(but TheCuban is hot so I got that workin' for me)
