Though I fear a scene from the Simpsons might be relevant ... once when Homer had gone missing and the rest of the family were working out where he might be Lisa said "we need to go and look in the sort of place where sad middle aged men gather" to which Bart immediately replied "you check out the library and I'll do Radio Shack" :-) Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

TROY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks like you had some bad luck, mate. You were born a day too early (or late). Or maybe it's because you live in Australia where everything is upside down so you should've been born in May? Or maybe you're just an exception to the rule. :) Ps. aliens have birthdays, too. - Greger http://www.kolumbus.fi/ghuttu/
