That reminds me of the Monty Python movie "The meaning of life" where they
started to talk of sex in the Third World and they used Yorkshire as an
example. The Brit at work said that is an old joke about Yorkshire being
dirty and backwards, etc.

MV content: I need to get all the junk off my Mule so that I put the
electric starter on it!

Glen
May the Joys of today be those of tomorrow!
May the goblet of life hold no dregs of sorrow!
