For really deep sleepers who can't get out of the pit in the morning?

What was missing from the article was any quantitative data. No superimposed traces from valve against transistor showing a difference. No frequency response diagrams etc. Just lots of talk with no attempt to prove anything. Certainly in terms of playback, the sound engineer at the mixing desk has more effect than (within reason) the playback equipment.

I knew before my wife both times. I had to tell her to try a test!

It sticks out from the wall instead of being parallel.

Ah - the axis of our loo roll is normal to the wall. Of course, that still leaves clockwise/anti-clockwise winding....

Are we back to "designers being arses" again? It doesn't look like there's an shortage of space that would make you choose a form of staircase that is less accessible than one that's easier to use.

Our two loved the Br'er Rabbit stories. They liked the way he won by being sneaky and clever, and sometimes mean, but never vindictive. And also that he didn't always win.
They're not so well known in the UK, and I don't suppose many of our kids' contemporaries know them at all. Shame - they're good yarns.

In my case at least, the double-chin comes from having both feet in the trough.

This really sums up most "designers". I wonder how many toilets he's cleaned, and how many loo rolls he's changed. And how many dribbly widdlers he's cleaned up after.

When I was a kid, we hadn't heard of glue-sniffing, but being A-Level chemistry students we worked out how to make our own chloroform and got bombed on that instead. It's not actually terribly nice.

Yeah - can't remember where I saw that, but I nearly wet myself laughing. Trouble is, when I tell our son to move out he asks for a pay rise. Perhaps when I retire and he runs the show he'll shove off? Or more likely when he finds a partner.

It's a thing for pointing to a space between two rods.

Electric shower. I wouldn't turn the lights off - that might be dangerous!
Don't know about the US, but most showers in the UK are electric. Not those scary things that sit on the end of the arm above your head, but proper wall-mounted things with safe wiring.

Always got our kids out of the shower. Flick the circuit breaker and hear 'em holler.
