RE: Dumb things people say
I was once asked how wide the tape was in an 8mm video cassette
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

The answer would have been interesting, methinks.
I don't know whether I need a bottle in front of me or a frontal lobotomy. Diablo

We went into a pub-cum-restaurant-cum-hotel thingy and had a cream tea.

On the wall was a flat screen TV about the size of a minor planet.  It was playing old vids.

The place was actually better than it sounds.

Anyways, there was a vid of Simon & Garfunkel playing.  Well, I said it was an old vid.

My partner and I were having a conversation.

The guy on the next table, without a by your leave, interrupted and said to us, pointing at Art Garfunkel, "who's the guy with Simon Garfunkel ?" 

At first I smiled.  I though it an unfunny joke. 

He then continued "It's that actor guy, what's his name ...?"

I then realised that the guy was serious. Doh

Well...who was the guy with Simon Garfunkel?

"His name is 'Rymin'."
