My brain in pants

LadyM: “Is it possible to crack an engine block?”
Me: “I think I’ve heard of that happening. Google for ‘cracked engine block’.”
AkaW: “You don’t bother actually knowing anything anymore, do you?”

Actually, I’m having the daemon’s own time googling for anything right now. Our net connections’s been flakey and intermittant since Friday afternoon. That’s before we got the WiFi hooked up, and well after we hooked up the hub, so neither of those is a likely culprit. It did stay up long enough for me to find a Romany phrasebook a little while ago (yes, you-know-who, it takes more than that to keep us in the dark).

Now that's the funniest line I've heard in some time... if (or because) a bit uncomfortably close to home :-)

The correct answer is "Yes, you can crack an engine block and it's a very bad thing." ;)
