Q

C'mon, Dave. That's cold.
Yes, but you know what would have happened if I left them out.
You did the right thing. :)
Dave - looks like we have a couple of members from Antarctica! ;D

(http://www.akrondesign.com/teaser/musketeers/muscateers1.jpg)
Which one of us is without legs? ;D
George - looks like 'one' of us is missing a left leg (of course, unless he's kneeling?) - but when I get back to work @ the WFU Med Ctr on Monday, I'll check for a prosthesis - but you guys need to let me know who needs one! ;D
It's hard to figure if the creature is about to jump on her, or if 'it' just finished its business... But I guess the intact bathing suit suggests the former ::)
Hi, my name is Gallagher. This is my brother Gallagher and this is my other brother Gallagher. ;D
Im not sure if they have moustaches?
Mozart - Moustaches definitely present on all - use to have one, myself, so I'm sure! - ;D

"There are far worse things awaiting man than death."
That's a great quote, who said it?
Staff Development....... ;D
I love this quote which is from the 1931 film "Dracula" and was spoken by Bela Lugosi (who played Count Dracula). The scene in the film is when Count Dracula is attending a concert with Mina and her father. Dracula says "To die, to be really dead, that must be glorious." Mina then says "Why Count Dracula?" to which he answers "There are far worse things awaiting man than death."
Ahhh. Nice bit of script writing. 8)

BTW - we've had this kind of poll before, and there's always one or two members from Antartica, one shown below - assume a 'wireless' internet connection? ;D

London.
It feels like continents.
Everybody from everywhere seems to be here.
Even in my borough High Street (London is divided into 33 Boroughs) I hear Eastern European, African, Asian (Indian sub-continent and China).
The other day I walked past a group demonstrating outside the Civic Centre. I took a leaflet which was about human rights abuses in Sri Lanka.
I went into a local Chinese restaurant on a weekday evening and it was packed...with Chinese. Good advert! ;D
