Just to let you know I am now an IKEA assembly expert!!!
Water squirty bottles work for training cats but only if used to deter bad behaviour..if used randomly you end up with a cranky cat. I only have to reach for the squirty bottle now when Piglet is being a bad cat and he rushes off to do something else......
usually attack Bruce......

No IKEA products in my house .. I dont think I have the patiance for their crappy instructions. I like things which arrive assembled or dont require much. I wont be buying from Bev Marks again that is for sure.. They brought me my bed head and side tables in bits.. and it is so heavy I cant put it together, instructions are horrible also. Ive had it now in my house since August 07 and still sitting in parts. It is really pissing me off (not that its not put together) but because they couldnt have done it. I walked back into Bev Marks few weeks ago to look at dining tables and the guy comes up2 me to ask me if I know much about them and how they are all Australian made. Felt like telling him where to shove it. Ordered my study desk and first thing I said "does it come assembled" and if it didnt I was ready to ask them to do it.. even if it cost me more. It is a nuisance when its not assembled.
Julia I only use the squirt bottle when hes having a scratch at my furniture. Nate seems to think its funny and does it when hes not doing anything wrong! See Nate.. told you you cannot squirt when unless he is doing something wrong THAT moment! grr lol

Make sure it is not allergy to the metal bits in the razor? They make of stainless steel nowadays?

I much prefer my Mach V Turbo He-Man Follicle Exterminator (TM). 
Because I saw a guy older than me in a black Supra ***** extension with gay green underbody lighting pick up a hot teenage girl in tight black leather, so it's only a matter of time...

It dosen't cut as good as a razor does, (although their claim is it does) but I'll try it for a few more times. If the problem persists I'll go back to my Schick disposable, a nick here and there dosen't hurt.

If you get knicks a lot, get one of the vibrating gilette razors ... I've been using one of them for quite a while now.

Now, fingers crossed that our pampered cricketers rapidly learn how to play swing bowling, or it's gonna be a very short match and a very long rainy weekend...

Good competition makes for good sport, and you've got to admit Australia needed bringing back to earth.
When you consider the India team are in a foreign country (copping flack), and win by such a margin speaks for their ability.

As for bringing back to earth - more crap. You've read too many hysterical Roebuck crying fits (not to mention pieces by ***** PC generalist journos who wouldn't know a googly from a flipper). I used to respect Roebuck's talent but he's jumped the shark this summer.
Those of us who had to support Aussie cricket through the desert that was the '80's (and haven't just jumped on board since they started winning everything) appreciate their well-deserved dominance. They work bloody hard to stay on top and thoroughly deserved to celebrate that Sydney test victory.
Full credit to the Indians - they played very well in Perth. However, when Johnson and Clarke (i.e. the other one) started showing our openers (please, please get better Haydo!) how it's done late in the innings, I nearly dared hope we'd pull off the miracle.
Mind you, we were hardly short-changed by being able to flick over to the Federer match - what a contest!! And if 'our Casey' wins again she'll never pay money in Target again methinks.

Well said. And in addition, if anyone saw the carrying on of Singh after they won can see that its not limited to Australia. Especially when you have achieved a remarkable feat, such as becoming one of only two teams to win 16 games straight or beating a team who was on track for their 17th straight game.
