If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I had an old application do that in 2008. It turned out that the program had the year 2007 hard coded. It cost me $97, which I got back after I joined a bunch of people in a lawsuit about the issue. The company was going to have people buy a new version every week, based on data gathered from an investigation. That company no longer exists.
I think the high level management are now working at McDonalds, as no one wants to hire someone that tries to scam people like that.

They also stole and sold private data, such as social security numbers, emails, and even credit card numbers. Some managers are still in jail AFAIK.

Thank you - that was a joke, but never mind! 
To "tag" someone in a message, go to the profile page and look just below the user name. You'll see a link that shows with an "@" at the front. Enter that into a message thus: @User-11407112 and it'll get linkified and an email sent.

By "real birthday" do you refer to OG's current primate incarnation; or, do you refer to the date when the aliens finished with his brain ?

No, it ain't. He told me yesterday that 01-Jan is his 'Real' Birthday. But he was joking

Did that ever happen in history?

Don't forget that Bill can be a little... odd... at times. I often wonder what he's smoking to come up with some of his posts.

Ahan! will start noticing that oddness from now on

Now how come that you came up with this thought that he smokes something to come up with his post? May be a glass of fresh juice refreshes his mind and improves his creativity

And I have pictures to prove it: Dropbox - Bacon Curing[^]
For our American Friends: it's Back bacon, not the type you get over there that's 50% meat, 50% fat - we call that "Streaky" and it's made with Pork Belly, not Loin. Maybe next time...
Only eaten 1/2 a slice (Herself ate the other half) and it was deliberatly a thin slice, a couple of mm thick.
Taste wise: it's BACON all right! Not as salty as I'm used to - but that's a good thing - and pretty much the best I've ever tasted. But hey, "I Made This!" could be influencing that quite a bit.
While it cooked, no "white stuff" came out, the fat rendered beautifully, and the meat cooked quickly and evenly.
I've cut off 6 more thicker slices to include in a Full English at lunchtime as it's Herself's birthday and I think this is going to be a good 'un. If the thickness works, I slice the lot and vacuum pack it for the freezer over the weekend.

well done
mmmm, real bacon, no nitrites - enjoy, and happy birthday to 'herself'
|
|
|
|
|
It was cured using Sodium Nitrite (not a lot, 6.25% to 93.75% salt in the curing salt, which was only 8% of the meat weight) to avoid botulism since I can't get the meat direct from the pig and have to use supermarket joints. You can make bacon without the nitrites, but you need "clean" meat and a longer cure if you just use "ordinary" salt, apparently.
The nitrites should break down and be removed during the curing process anyway at this concentration. Again, apparently!

hmmm, maybe you need to befriend a butcher or even better a pig farmer - unless EU rules prevent them from selling direct from a carcass
enjoy anyway, I'm salivating you rotter
