    I guess, really, the only 2 parties that can say if it's disrepectful or not would be Dillon's descendances or the church (as he was an ordained Archbishop).

    A pair of Queen Victoria's knickers were recently auctioned.

    So no, nothing is sacred to us.

    I have noticed though that people in the US seem to hold many rights s 'sacred', such as the right to bear arms (ducks and runs away), whereas in the UK we just want whatever we can get for free then whinge a bit when it gets taken away.

    All this talk of false teeth reminds me of a works team building weekend in Wales....


    After a days team building and a evenings drinking, most of the ganag had turned in for teh night. The fitter on the course, was sat in the bar talking about the bottle of whisky he had in his room that he was saving for later. when he got up to relieve the strain on his bladder, he'd left his room key next to his pint. So off i went, key in hand to his room. Opening the door i found teh whiskey bottle next to teh bed and in a rush, nicked it and then hid it back in my room acrosss the hall.
    when i got back to the bar, the fitter had returned. Half hour late he decided to turn in saying he was going to finish his bottle and drink himself to sleep. About 4 of us were left behind to carry on teh drinking session. All was peaceful for all of the 10 minutes it must of took him to walk back to his room. He came charging back to teh bar, and not very quietly, demanded to know which little fek had taken his night cap.
    Well being honest i had to tell him it was me, all i can remeber after that is being attacked by his pair of false teeth held in his hand and a few choice names he called me!!
    I had to hand back his drink, but we had a good laugh about it in the morning. ( i did get him vback later at work, i screwed his tool box to teh bench!)

    So teh motto here is, if you leave something lying around, some oppertunits will always find something to do with it!

    Oh my god! That is funny and disturbing at the same time? Why would someone want someones underwear? I am betting it wasn't a g-string. :biggrin

    I don't know if I would could consider my rights for anything as sacred. But the dead should always be respected. Nuff said.:dry

    Just everyone do me a fav, and don't let joe bury me with a bottle of wine, or arroyn will have me dug up before the grass has a chance to take root. :twisted::biggrin

    Might be that way there... but it's not that way here. A bunch of them can't stand us, and a bunch of us can't stand them. Ever since the end of WWII, the French have grown increasingly unhelpful and even arrogant towards the US, not only with regards to Vietnam, Libya, Gulf War 1 and 2, but also in regards to our culture: link1, link2, link3. It's "cool" to hate on Americans right now, and the French are all about looking cool. :dry
