I even understand most of the English ones, but rarely get to create one in English myself... If you ever happen to dig out that email again, *please* forward it to me! *drool* ;=D And to add a cross-language pun on "hose": The German word Hose means throusers, so a German like me might accidentally say "I hosed my Hose"...

Just created an English pun all by myself! ;=D Best regards, Martin Stricker -- Homepage: http://www.martin-stricker.de/ Linux Migration Project: http://www.linux-migration.org/ Red Hat Linux 7.3 for low memory: http://www.rule-project.org/ Registered Linux user #210635: http://counter.li.org/ -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
