Reminds me of the famous sledging" encounter between a Pakistani and Australian cricketer. I can't remeber who they were or what way round the comments were but the conversation at the crease sort of went like this:

Ozzie fielder: Hey fattie. Why are you so fat?

Pakistani Batsmen: Becasue every time I f**k your wife she gives me a biscuit.

Que pandemonium and international incident.

Wonderful. Simply wonderful. Too bad I can't link to it from our blog (just too rude for government, I'm afraid)

Brilliant

As a dataminer, I find this cartoon very funny. As a Canadian whose personal data is extremely protected by PIPEDA, would that mean the Gov't would be fucking my wife?

This one is going on the wall, regardless.

Hugh:

It's good to see that you've got your groove back.
Keep the faith, bro.

I do believe that this is destined to become the new sys-admin t-shirt - call it the Web 2.0 version of "yes, I read your email"
