It's 5 in the afternoon where you are, lucky g*t. http://www.thenational.ae/article/20080910/NATIONAL/2531293/1001/FOREIGN

My sister married a Smith, now she's a Smith

Snakes on a train?

Agreed

What do you mean? Is it not 9th November?

Ah, on TSF I made many a good sensible post in the Lounge, most popular one was on "Philosophers", the Dubai thread was also a great

Saw that, 5 years

On the news this morning they had a report saying that he had collapsed and was seriously ill.

If they can dig up any info i'll trade you a beer.

About as interesting as Maggie Philbin's coal bunker.

Dot Cotton and Pauline Fowler's dead body, nice little threesome there.

Tee hee google it, the film looks alright too.

Well, there's no 'site closed for maintenance' page yet so I guess so

Don't say they're being sucked up by some black hole created by man?

The biggest and most expensive machine ever built has finally been switched on. At 8.30am UK time, scientists at the CERN particle physics laboratory began their first attempt to fire a beam of particles around the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the £3.6bn atom-smasher that will open a new window on the Universe. The LHC team is initially trying to pass the proton beam around just one of the 27km ring’s eight sectors, to ensure it is properly lined up. A “beam-stopper”, or block, is in place at the end of the first sector, about 3km in, to prevent the particle stream from passing further around the accelerator. Once the beam is aimed correctly and can be seen passing through the first sector, the team will remove the first beam-stopper, and attempt to fire protons around three-eights of the ring. Over the course of the day, they hope to get it to pass around the entire circuit without touching the sides, and thus to start circulating. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/science/article4722261.ece

If the world does end, will we get that sh*tty 'site closed for maintenance' page?
