Some bad news. I went to have my eyes examined today, Thought i had started to see a little less well. Wanted to fit out a new pair of glasses. Obviosly i saw a lot less well. They sent we straight to the eyedoctor. Before i can get a new pair they said i should check thouroughly so it gets as good as possible. Means it takes a lot longer time to get the glasses. I saw shockingly bad with these glasses. Hopefully this will blow over when all that can be examined has been examined. I say as Richie Tozier said: I probably be wearing coke-bottles next! (you can always find a good quote in IT)
From a fellow optically challenged person, I feel your pain sir. Next up for me is bi-focals, but apparently they make bi-focal contact lenses which is cool, I rarely wear my glasses. Glass lens technology has come a long way but the ones I had in high school and up until around the year 2000 you could have used my glasses to spot high flying aircraft and read the tail numbers...lol

I've been seeing & smelling it coming.
Usual suspects on one side, ULTRA COOL KIDS to the other........just remember Robin Williams barroom speech in Good Morning Vietnam.
You know! the one that ends with "....now what kind of fun would that be?" ;)
Ya lost me. :biggrin2: (I can't find that speech anywhere, and don't remember it.)

Let us know how you get on Kurben, eyes are such a pita! I hope they can get you sorted quickly, inexpensively and that it's not going to have undue on-going consequences.

This is the only one I could find that ends with that line:

(Robin Williams) "That's all right. I did. Hey, come on now. If you kick out the gooks, the next thing, you have to kick out the chinks, the spicks, the spooks and k ikes. All that's gonna be left in here are a couple of brain-dead rednecks, and what fun would that be?"

Okay, I had to chuckle. All those words are offensive but only one got the star treatment.

:laugh:

I didn't even notice it censored it when I posted it but I definitely get your point. :) Just for the record, folks, we don't manually do that. It's an automated software program that decides what words get censored.

EDIT: I added a space so people can see the word used in the original quote.
