Helps you get tight pants on.

Reduces that blasted arse friction.

Once the brakes are applied, it shouldn't make any difference, as the forces involved are far
greater than any force the spiring is capable of appling.

<scientific fact> Mine can too, but that's nothing to do with it - _Hope's_ aren't crap. When Hope's
brakes squeal, it's just them reminding you how well they're working, with the Hayes, it's them
telling to to buy some Hope Minis. <scientific fact>

Shaun aRe - 'strue.

You're welcome at any rate. Peace, Bill

The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.

PS - Posting your grammar FAQ is now just going to open you to world of abuse every time you post a
