You tell me; you're the one with 'Astro' in his name. I can barely read a normal map, never mind star charts.
I'm sure I know the answer, but I was looking for independent confirmation. I was reflecting upon Wolram's comment - "We are dealing with an alternate reality here Astro . . . ". Maybe it's just the vapors from the Garum someone put in the visitor's tent.

Finally! Excuse me while I eat.:smile:

You guys should offer chocolate: the universal food currency, you can have white, dark or milk. It's very multicutlural, God bless the South Americans :smile:

I'll have milk obviously, and Cadburys if you've got it, minus the salmonella of course:wink:

Don't complain. They got the ones with the optional rear-window defroster, so you can keep your hands warm while you push it around all winter.
You are hilarious, turbo. :smile:

We're not giving away the chocolate! It's taken us months of threatening bans to extort that much...erm...I mean, the membership has been so generous in sending us chocolate gifts that we wouldn't want to insult them by re-gifting it. :biggrin:

The new official song of PF. I've loved this song since it came out. Yes, it will stick in your mind and you will all hate me.

(warning - the video is weird) but the tune and lyrics are great. :biggrin:

The video "[MEDIA=youtube[/URL]

(you can fast forward to 02:06 to where it really starts)

Fish Heads
**********

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

In the morning
Laughing, happy
Fish Heads
In the evening
Floating in the soup

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

Ask a Fish head
Anything you want to
They won't answer
They can't talk

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

I took a Fish head
Out to see a movie
Didn't have to pay
To get it in

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

They can't play baseball
They don't wear sweaters
They're not good dancers
They don't play drums

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

Rolly polly Fish heads
Are never seen drinking
Cappacino in Italian restaurants
With Oriental women...Yeah

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm...
(Yummm)

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm

Fish heads, Fish heads
Rolly polly Fish heads
Fish heads, Fish heads
Eat them up, Yummm
YEAH!
