You snooze, you lose.

The answer to your question, BTW, is "no". When it's 15º and sowing lightly, bicycle shops aren't generally very busy.

People use words like "computer" instead of the French word "ordinateur" and Fre-nglish is sometime rampant. It's sometimes funny to me at times all the variations and mis-matches that can come up ...

Just for fun ... and page 1,000

Arg!!! Its the mighty hammer of the livE hociR!!!

We are doomed! Doomed, I tell ya!

I also have no plan to have any of it. You have to eat it on bread. Gluten free bread sucks.

Nah. Just use a spoon! To hell with the bread.

It looks like your n key is working OK.
My son recently pointed out to me that mine wasn't. Apparently I emailed him and said I was doing "a AV presentation".
