Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: GUEST,Penny S. (somewhere else) Date: 02 Mar 00 - 01:37 PM Rear Fog Lamp - brighter than normal rear red light for use in restricted visibility, such as fog (not much in London nowadays) sea mist, low cloud, heavy rain, snow or for indicating to the idiot investigating the contents of the exhaust pipe that he's too close.

Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: jeffp Date: 02 Mar 00 - 01:29 PM I refer to these rare (yeah, right!) moments as "brain farts." My wife still laughs about the time I went out the patio door, shut the screen behind me and, realizing I had forgotten to bring something with me, turned around and walked right into the screen door. |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: catspaw49 Date: 02 Mar 00 - 01:26 PM This makes me think of all those great expressions like "a few bricks shy of a load." Some even musical (and otherwise, of course):
A few sandwiches short of a picnic. And on and on.....but I don't want to be hoggish here. Spaw |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: Willie-O Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:50 AM what the hell is a rear fog light? (I can just picture this...car designer goes 'damn, can't see to back up in this fog...') sounds like a luxury item to me even if it is a '72. Or is it a London (?) necessity?
when my attention wanders, my subconscious heads me over to the mudcat cafe...for a lattay. W-O |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: GUEST,Patrish Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:46 AM I have just gone out to the car and I left the window open at lunchtime. It has been raining. I will have very wet bottom by the time I get home. (sigh) Patrish signing off - not really looking forward to getting in the car, yuk |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: GUEST,Patrish Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:26 AM I took it as a compliment and lavished many hugs and kisses on them Perhaps I am a mad cow...... |

Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: kendall Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:23 AM This is nothing new to me. Back in 1965 I was in Halifax, NS. Had a few beers and a local guide showing me around. She also had a few beers. We left some joint, walked down the street, entered another joint (so I thought) bumped into the bouncer, I looked up at him and asked "How many jobs do you have anyway?" Turned out to be the same joint!! That Moosehead brew will raise hell with your compass. |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: GUEST,Patrish Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:21 AM Thats strange, I faintly remember someone calling me a mad cow - on several occasions Patrish |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: Skipjack K8 Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:17 AM Patrish It's one of the side effects of British beef. Delicious! Skipjack |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: GUEST,Patrish Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:12 AM Yes indeedy......... yesterday was one of those days. I was typing a report I had hand written at home and after some time and two pages worth (Ihave to look at the keyboard)it was all in capitals I highlighted it and promptly deleted it. I could have used the undo button, that would have been sensible, but the brain cell ordered otherwise sad Patrish |
Subject: RE: BS: Light on - no one in From: MMario Date: 02 Mar 00 - 11:05 AM I share a brain cell (singular) with a minimum of 27 relatives scattered through the eastern part of North America. Bandwidth is stictly limited, and there are days when the connection seems to go down completly. does that answer your question? |
Subject: Light on - no one in From: GUEST,Patrish Date: 02 Mar 00 - 10:56 AM Today when I tried to start my car(very old 1972, but new to me as of yesterday), instead of using the choke I used the rear fog light. It did not work. Does anyone one else have no power over the brain cell........... Patrish |
