Chef Mike is good at what he does. Unlike some.

  Chef Mike is awesome.  Until sparks begin shooting out of him.  Then he's done.  :P

Don't blink.

  But blinking helps me to hydrate my corneas!  :eyelash:

The Doctor says "Don't Blink."  (One of the scariest TV episodes I've ever seen.)

  Doctor Who?  Dr. House?  What show is this?  :hide:

Surely you jest!  Dr. Who

If you want to be involved in standards work for the W3C, community groups are a useful option.

Josesh, five cojones on a skewer, made some pretty 'seksy' pictures, centerfold worthy I'd say, but as it turns out my digital camera really dislikes moist climates like bathrooms so.. no pics, I'm afraid.

Bugger.. never ever any pictures from me it is. :sadface:

The residue left by adhesive labels can be removed by using a small amount of lighter fluid to dissolve the glue.

Or a cooking oil or mayonnaise.

  While researching mouse-removal methods online, I read that the glue in glue traps can be dissolved
     with cooking oil.  I'll remember that if I ever step on one by accident and want it off my shoe.  :orly:
