belfastguzzi Posted August 15, 2006 Author Posted August 15, 2006 Mistakes? On this forum? Never!! Arthur C. Clarke's dictum of 1962: "When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is almost certainly wrong."
belfastguzzi Posted August 15, 2006 Author Posted August 15, 2006 Isn't it time to stop repeating yourself? If I may take the liberty of repeating another gent of the Forum: Never!! PS You have made a serious mistake, as the above is not a repeat. The other thread is the repeat.

belfastguzzi Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 Does anyone know what time it was? It was 1918, though I can't be more exact about the time, when Hemingway left the Star to volunteer in World War I as an ambulance driver for the Red Cross. He was wounded in both legs by mortar and machine-gun fire, and while recuperating in a hospital in Milan fell in love with a nurse.

helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 What time was it when those were the days? Certainly not this thyme!
mdude Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 I think the correct term is that was the day... as in "that was the day my dead pet returned to save my life" (A.Cooper) and the question is what time was that?? I think the correct term is that was the day... as in "that was the day my dead pet returned to save my life" (A.Cooper) and the question is what time was that?? and to answer myself: those were the days: I think the time was 8 o'clock in the evening, mostly that was the day: much later in the evening

Wowee zowee! That's another Significant Question all in its own right! It seems that there are more things to think about that I had first realised. PS Be careful about that Alice Cooper. Better dead flowers than dead pets. Check with the Bard of Salford (J. Cooper Clarke): "the day the world stood still the day the world stood still no traffic noise or sparrows trill from the dead flowers on the window sill this is the day the world stood still" As for Henry Cooper, well, that was the day... when fans reminisce about old ’Enery, they talk about the potent left hook he landed to the jaw of 21-year-old Cassius Clay. And they talk about what might have been ... Biff! Mini Cooper – ah things ain't what they used to be. I remember when a Cooper was a Cooper
