Oh, brilliant! Then you can answer a question which has been bugging me for a while:

 

Why can't you get cars with square steering wheels any more?

Funny you should ask!

I worked for a time with Harris Mann (he of the Austin Allegro square steering wheel) - what a nice chap. Oh and all his engineering solutions were still spot on, so I don't fully understand how he came up with that idea!

Putting this aside - notice the shape of F1 steering wheels have not been round for over ten years now so maybe he was the really well ahead of the game all this time.

P.S.

Its often said that the Allegro is more aerodynamic in reverse than driving forwards! I would like to help dismiss this rumour, even though I can't stand the car.

Clive Dunn.

Dressed as you are in your avatar Anubis, Clive would be straight after your fuzzy wuzzies. So it probably is a match made in heaven. :referee:

Re that job predictor a few posts back. If I find the git who rigged it to make me a 'Housekeeper' my ideal job will become ruthless assassin.

 

Then again, I typed in my real name and became a 'Superstar Goalscoring Hero.' Exciting but complete bollocks, I played football for years at the other end of the pitch, shutting out the goalscoring heroes.

I was just coming on this tread for another reason only to notice I've been mentioned in dispatches thanks very much Football Fan. (oh and by the way I liked you more without that Manc' avatar) 

It’s a temporary fix until I get a better one. For right now I am using this one to express my support for my favourite football team. :P

 

Now I ask you FF what's a "Soccor Team?"

<_< I have no idea.

 

To all those people who say we should get a life!

Just like to update you all that I've landed my self a new job after being without a contract (real job car design CAD engineer not mad scientist) for about a full year.  Not only that after having nothing for so long, I was 'phoned today with the offer of a second full time job!  Talk about two busses coming together!

Congratulations on your new job, Rotten Ali!

 

Regards,

 

ff :)

Football? They don't play football in the UK; they play soccer and rugby. So who's your favourite football team? The Bears? The Raiders? Who?

 

P.S. I played rugby in law school. I still haven't recovered.

Football, soccer. It is a matter of debate, depending on what side of the pond you live. <_<

 

So who's your favourite football team? The Bears? The Raiders? Who?

It would have to be the Indianapolis Colts. That quaterback, Payton Manning will be in the NFL hall of fame for sure.

I got the same two people.

 

Do you think that there only a very limited no. of options and that, basically whatever you say, it's going to come out with the same people?

 

Ah well, Jennifer and Pierce. I could do worse I suppose.

I suppose we could twiddle our thumbs until someone dies...that sure would be fun.

 

It would also mean that we could exercise other digits asides the ones we use when opening lots and lots and lots of new posts. :lol:

Join a Forum that interests you, and post more irrelevant nonsense a day than any sane person would dream of doing.

See if this annoys anybody, (it will) but you'll be surprised how long it takes to get banned.

Oh, and insult the moderators. And their mothers.

Interesting - who would have thought he was an internet troll.

 

Is that the right term? - I don't know...
