# Dancing Saddam!
Any chance someone could stick Saddams head on the guy from the Lynx adver,like the MC Hammer one a few weeks back??!

# I think
that was Saddam Hussain.

/edit - My friend is trying to convince me to go to Cardiff this weekend but I said my girlfriend wanted me to meet some of her friends. This was his reply:

just turn to her one day and grip her by the arms, look her dead in the eyes with a weird grin and simply say in a low gruff voice 'id love to meet your friends'. keep staring....keep staring...keep staring. nothing but silence now. you can hear the bells of st Christopher in the background. 'i should leave she says' and turns to pull away her gaze to the floor whilst trying to step back. 'NO!' you bark, letting go but circling her now...swinging your arms back and forth like an ape. 'No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no' you repeat, spinning round and patting your head at the same time. Her eyes bulge out on their stalks in terror at your transformation. you now look like a very large, very angry, mallard duck. she shrieks *scene fades to black with large duck chasing girl round in a circle with loud exaggerated quacks roughly every 1.5 seconds*

He is v strange... but I think I'll go to cardiff...

# Oh Yes
I remember it well

Those balmy nights by the ponds watching formation duck farting.

Those heady evenings with the mallardinos, the self cooking dancing troupe from Slovenia.

# fred jack
Why is word so fecking shite? It's more like a bloody fight than a tool to write documents.

How do I do this?

  * something - my description goes here but
                wraps onto the next line.

and not this:

  * something - my description goes here but
    wraps onto the next line.


Edit:Thanks for all the suggestions. I've done it now but word is still fecking shite.

then drag the little bit on the ruler until its all in line...I'm using a 1994 version of Word so it may have changed...

but the whole thing shunts along.

Edit:Okay I was moving the wrong thing. fanks.
(I helped save b3ta! Mond, Wed 9 Apr 2003, 11:35, archived)
# there are
TWO little slidey things!

One of them offsets the first line of paragraph, one of them offsets the rest. THey're on the top and bottom of the ruler, not sure which is which.

Luck!

Also, mess around with bullets if you're still having problems. Bullets and those slidey things.

they shift just that line along and no bullet points etc...
