    Why are you never willing to back your claims? I am GENUINELY interested in this. Please provide the evidence.

    Why do you seem to think we give a fuck about your farmyard ruttings?

    Surely you don't need evidence to bust myths?
    Yeah, nah.

    One thing about KB is it clearly sorts out the intelligent ones with a sense of humour and the unhappy sad sacks with no life.

    can you bust a myth with another myth? I don't think so. To say that the earth is flat and support by Atlas is as much a myth as to say it is supported by a turtle.

    Many times I have heard of research saying married men are happier and live longer. Do married men live longer or is it that a lot of men die whilst they are still single as in too young to have married? As to happiness? it is often the grass is greener effect that makes for unhappiness whereas a synic could argue that a good number of married men have had the ability to dream of what might be knocked out of them, they are happy because they nolonger know any better

    Is that because women live longer than men? Therefore by the time they cark it they are widowed/single.

    Sent from the deathbed of a rich happy widow, using her dead husbands money.
    Yeah, nah.

    Yeah? I thought married men didn't die that early.

    They just wished they did.

    You really have to wonder about the members who follow me around religiously just to try to get at me personally. If that is their only way to get their jollies they must be truly pathetic individuals.

    I must be the highlight of their lives, how sad is that..?
