But but but - I don't think 'apropos of' is correct. ;-) Apropos as
in, 'with reference to' or 'in this regard' or 'opportunely' doesn't
take 'of'. I think! ;-)

You're right, I didn't snip all I meant to when I made a change. But do you
like the mugs?

I had a hell of a job getting out of that site, had to close all windows
to get rid of it.

It is a very bad idea to open more links in a browser instance than
you absolutely have to - one thing that you may not realise is that
any site that you link to potentially has access to much of the data
you communicate to or obtain from the others. I haven't worked in
that cess pool for a couple of decades, but I know that it is merely
different in detail and none of the original design faults have been
corrected. I recommend that you kill and restart your browser
frequently, and never access a 'privileged' site (e.g. one where you
are ordering things) in the same session as more general browsing.

And, for geeks, running your browser in its own virtual machine or
chroot ghetto is well worth the effort!


Regards,
Nick Maclaren.

Yes, they're fun and would manage to annoy quite a lot of people. ;-)

No trouble getting out of it at all, but I did like the There, They're,
Their Mug, so few people know which are which. Rather like the apostrophe. I
actually saw one yesterday after the 's' in the correct place. .........
Gents' Toilet ....

I meant to add that there's one missing from the set, given how things are
going. It's the one that says "I would HAVE made you a cup OF coffee (but
you called me a grammar nazi, so make your own)
