    Yes, even I didn't think the Falklands being invaded meant that Scotland was in imminent danger and I get lost after about 100 yards from my back door...

    There was a great quote from a film I watch a while back, but I forget the film. It was something like "War teaches Americans where different countries are".

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Unless you're Sarah Palin, of course. Does being a soccer mom mean you get hit in the head a lot?

    That's the one!

    OK, so it was Mark Twain who originally said it. Probably should have known that, although not being American...

    Anyway, now to try and work out what the film was I heard it being quoted in.

    One of my all time favs still has to be Fanny Craddock making doughnuts, followed by the comment by the announcer, 'I hope all your doughnuts turn out like Fanny's.' I still wonder if he realised what he was saying at the time or whether he was enlightened by a third party afterwards. It's not like Autocad, you can't type OOPS and make it all go away.
