C ya, compañero ** takes the spliff from Beldin, draws a deep breath and passes it back on ** @Beldin: naturally

@E-Man : Well, basically natural... ...

It could have been -
"The position where you're able to : "

Cuius testiculos habes, habeas cardia et cerebellum.

"When you have their full attention in your grip, their hearts and minds will follow."
BTW - 'Testiculos' does not quite translate as 'full attention'.

[size=0]-- (Terry Pratchett, Small Gods)
The correct version of the quote originates with Chuck Colson, one of Richard Nixon's Watergate henchmen. [/size]

**takes back spliff and tokes again before opening a can of beer**

No worries,

I say, well put mate! ** takes another swig from his Jack Daniels ** (reading the Science of Discworld now, till I get Equal Rites and Mort)

Beldin:

**puffing away on his spliff**

Enjoy, mate ! And if you're not sure if you get all the jokes try this.

No worries, mate !

**opens another can of beer and drinks it**

I bookmarked the page already - thanks again, mate . I just don't read the annotations for the books I haven't read yet... wouldn't want to get spoiled ** pours himself another glass of J.D. **

Spoiling isn't the problem, but it helped me understand some of the more difficult puns on the english language..

English can be a ***** that way, a lot of the puns Pratchett uses are a bit obscure as well.

DONE.

Now let's wait and see if any girl in this forum dares to follow my steps....

**downs his beer and gets up to move the dispenser closer to the bar**



**draws a pint from the dipenser**

I think the best question is... who is that guy behind you, and what is he doing?!?

So much for "Are you sure you can't hang out this weekend." Nice to see you too.

Just so you know, Tammy says he'll be okay for next weekend if you are. Just thought you might like to know.

No worries I am indeed enjoying myself... although I'm running low on funds now, so I've got to find a job...

My apologies for not being able to drop by more often

Well, it's not like you miss much... some drinking here, some pot smoking there, yada yada yada...
