Here's some advice: Don't get caught next time.

An old version of Pivot Animator. I think the newer version is pretty shit, really - doesn't save the files as small as the one above and has some functionality & compatibility issues with older .piv files

You won't get very far with that' date=' try the image search instead[/quote']

Got one!

I open them by just dropping them on the floor.

Then what do you do with all the industrial tools?

A little while ago now, I bought a packet of Wheat Crunchies from my works upstairs vending machine and noticed that there was a competition: We believe that Wheat Crunchies is the NOISIEST snack on the market. If you know of a competitor for sheer loudness, e-mail us at noisy@wheatcrunchies.com.

I still believe that a coconut, when chopped into segments, constitutes being a snack, so I e-mailed them:

Dear Mr Noisy,

I believe that a coconut it a louder snack than a bag of Wheat Crunchies for several reasons.

First of all, to open a coconut you require a significant amount of force or a power tool, both of which create extremely noisy scenarios, especially when you compare it to other snacks.

Seconds of all, as with every time I try and have a coconut, my anger boils over - since it's delicious interior is kept so rigidly enclosed by the forces of nature, soon wild outburst attempts such as throwing the coconut up high or against a rock begin to take hold. As my actions become more and more primitive, so do my body actions, and a succession of grunts, sniffs and moans can be heard from myself in my tasty coconut quest as I wander around.

As with every human being on Earth, a vision drawn from my sanity comes into play and it soon becomes apparant that I require assistance in my coconut endeavour. So in comes the power tools! Operating anywhere from 500 to 4000 Watts of power, these tools have a natural knack for being noisy buggers.

And finally, after all else has failed, the coconut begins to falter as I drill down on the hardened shell with an excessively powerful drill bit - more accustomed to destroying a concrete foundation to penetrating a fruit, and with a wild laugh that's mixed with both merciless anger and delirious happiness, the coconut shell splits open and I cradle the fruit in my arms like a mad man. Careful not to spill the precious juice I've tried so hard to obtain over the past 1 - 5 hours, I pour it into a small glass, disappointed as always at the quantity, and use the breached layer of shell to continue on, soon breaking off a layer large enough to cut out the interior and consume the coconut.

So as you can see, Wheat Crunchies company e-mail destination reader, this is why I believe Wheat Crunchies to be only the SECOND loudest snack around.

Regards,

and the very next day I got a reply:

Hi,

Does a coconut count as a snack?

Regards

Brad

Consumer services

So, they weren't sure if a coconut was an authentic snack. No problem - a quick e-mail should sort it all out for them:

Mr Brad,

Evidence suggests anything that can be consumed that would keep one's appetite at bay may be justified as a snack. Similar sized fruits that you could regard as a snack would be such delights as Watermelon and the delicious pineapple, though, like the coconut, would naturally be consumed over a number of days.

As such, I believe you have a minor standpoint in your Wheat Crunchies defence. Although the initial frustration and turmoil of opening a coconut is indeed supreme over all snacks, the proportion of the product of "noise", as is the argument here, would be layed out over several helpings.

I believe the below graph indicates this without bias:

As the graph clearly exhibits, the level of noise from the constituent parts in serving 1 alone, a coconut would easily beat that of a regular bag of Wheat Crunchies, even over a period of seven helpings!

Regards,

and that's where it ends, really. unfortunately the people at Wheat Crunchies either didn't take my proposition seriously, or perhaps they don't give a shit.

Anyway, might I suggest a follow up e-mail to the little input I have already sent.

ANY evidence for my theory or other theories welcome.

i was wanting to dye my hair tonight so its mroe pink for tomorrow. but i dont fancy standing in brown runnign water

oh my god then write it in your livejournal already

(NB)

You don't need an investigation to find out where the water is. My guess is that it's still in the river.

It looks like a great deal, but for that price normally it'd be a rough part of town. The CCTV on the door sort of suggests it is, too

Where is it?

BEING BRITISH

......... is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer' date=' then travelling home, grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV.

And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of anything foreign!!!!

Oh and!

Only in Britain... can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.

Only in Britain... do supermarkets make sick people walk all the way to the back of the shop to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

Only in Britain... do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a DIET coke.

Only in Britain... do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters.

Only in Britain... do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.

Only in Britain... do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place.

Only in Britain... are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink.

Iran have a fraction of the reactors capable of producing nuclear arms. I really cant see what the problem is. What has this got to do with America?

America is scared! They don't want to know about the facts, the figures or the country involved, so that must mean that anything vaguely advanced in technology is being used to destroy everything the believe in, and loads more!!!

I mean, this has to be the case - they're using nuclear power and will obviously harvest a billion bombs in all their vast caves!

I hope someone someday will do what's really needed for the world to sit up and think...

Bush 'Wanted to Bomb TV Station'

Newsroom targeted: President Bush allegedly suggested bombing Al-Jazeera's Qatar studios

US President George Bush had to be talked out of launching a military strike on a TV station in a friendly Arab state by Prime Minister Tony Blair' date=' it has been claimed.

The report, published in the Daily Mirror, prompted calls for Downing Street to publish the transcript of a conversation between Mr Blair and President Bush.

According to unnamed sources quoted in the Mirror, the memo - stamped Top Secret - records Mr Bush suggesting that he might order the bombing of Al-Jazeera's studios in Qatar.

And it allegedly details how Mr Blair argued against an attack on the station's buildings in the business district of Doha, the capital city of Qatar, which is a key ally in the Persian Gulf.

Al-Jazeera had sparked the anger of the US administration by broadcasting video messages from al Qaida head Osama bin Laden and leaders of the insurgency in Iraq, as well as showing footage of the bodies of US servicemen and Iraqi civilians killed in fighting.

Controversial: Al-Jazeera has angered the US by screening video messages from al Qaida

According to the Mirror's source, the transcript records a conversation during Mr Blair's visit to the White House on April 16 last year, in the wake of a failed attempt to root out insurgents in the city of Fallujah, in which 30 US Marines died.

A spokesman for 10 Downing Street refused to discuss the leaked memo.

But former defence minister Peter Kilfoyle - a leading Labour opponent of the Iraq war - called for the document to be made public.

"I believe that Downing Street ought to publish this memo in the interests of transparency, given that much of the detail appears to be in the public domain,'' he told the Press Association.

"I think they ought to clarify what exactly happened on this occasion.

"If it was the case that President Bush wanted to bomb al-Jazeera in what is after all a friendly country, it speaks volumes and it raises questions about subsequent attacks that took place on the press that wasn't embedded with coalition forces.''

Is Al-Jazeera being persecuted?

The Liberal Democrat foreign affairs spokesman, Sir Menzies Campbell, told PA: "If true, then this underlines the desperation of the Bush administration as events in Iraq began to spiral out of control.

"On this occasion, the Prime Minister may have been successful in averting political disaster, but it shows how dangerous his relationship with President Bush has been.''

According to the Mirror, the transcript is the document which allegedly turned up in the constituency office of former Labour MP Tony Clarke in May last year.

Mr Clarke - who voted against the Iraq war and lost his Northampton South seat in this May's election - returned the document to No 10 because of fears that British troops' lives might be put at risk if its contents became public.

Cabinet Office civil servant David Keogh has been charged under the Official Secrets Act of passing it to Mr Clarke's former researcher Leo O'Connor. Both are bailed to appear at Bow Street Magistrates Court next week.

Mr Clarke this morning refused to discuss the contents of the document which he received, telling PA that his priority was supporting Mr O'Connor, who he said did "exactly the right thing'' in bringing it to his attention.

Mr Kilfoyle said that he had not seen the memo, but had learnt of its alleged content at the time of the original leak and believed it tallied with the Mirror's account.

A Downing Street spokesman said: "We have got nothing to say about this story. We don't comment on leaked documents.''[/quote']

As much as this is a highly likely scenario from those spastics across the sea, could you add in the source link?
