Question What is making you happy today?

Now it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mindbogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen it to see it as a final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God.
The argument goes something like this: "I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."
"But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED."
"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.
"Oh, that was easy," says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets killed on the next zebra crossing.
Most leading theologians claim that this argument is a load of dingo's kidneys, but that didn't stop Oolon Colluphid making a small fortune when he used it as the central theme of his best-selling book Well That About Wraps It Up For God.
Meanwhile, the poor Babel fish, by effectively removing all barriers to communication between different races and cultures, has caused more and bloodier wars than anything else in the history of creation.

Happy towel day mofos.

You need help MK, you really do.
 
Had a poor review left on tripadvisor that was so not meant for us which we pointed out to the reviwer and after 3 days it was removed and at the same time Tripadvisor awarded us a cert of exelence so all in all on the up.
 
The short version of a long story is that my boss blamed me for funking up an urgent bit of work, but when she checked her emails she made the error. I like my boss but......IN YOUR FACE!

For your future job safety please re read your post as it looks like you want to jizz over a female bosses face which of course is fine by me.

Did she apologise?

I had one once when I worked in banking. I didn't have a huge amount of respect for my then manager because he was rubbish and was quite immature. (I have no idea how he got the job because nearly everyone else in the office was brilliant.) Anyway, someone else in the team brought a mistake to his attention. It was a mistake that someone had made the day before. It was only a small issue, but he wanted to make an example out of someone, and that day it was me, so he went mad, and demanded that we get to the bottom of it, and that whoever had made the mistake would be in serious trouble, all-the-while staring at me.

I kept out of the investigation, and got on with my normal stuff because I knew it wasn't anything to do with me. After about an hour someone else in the team found the offending transaction, which had his name literally written all over it. To say this manager was extremely embarrassed is an understatement. Unsurprisingly there was no hint of an apology.

As it happens he was a nice guy, just a crap manager. In the end he got an internal move to New York, and worked out there. He also met a local girl whose parents live somewhere miles away from NY. When he ever met her parents it was always in New York when they were visiting her. In the end they got married, and only then did she take him back to the family home, which turned out to be an obscenely large house on an extremely large estate. It turns out her parents were billionaires. Talk about landing on your feet.
 
Getting a customer in my taxi who didn't pay a few weeks ago. It's quite nice seeing somebody cry after you have rollocked them. Got all the money plus more.
 
Getting get with the kids on Saturday.Going to Primavera Sound....to see Brian Wilson perform Pet Sounds.

My first appearance there since Neil Young was on the bill -4/5 years ago now.

Would have liked to see Richard Hawley again but his gig clashes with BW's.

Also tempted to see the Orchestra BaoBob rather than headliner PJ Harvey (playing at the same time).

And an address to share? my guess would be the scamp would have done it at least 20 times before and not paid a penny.
