I Quit!
Scaryduck writes, "I celebrated my last day on my paper round by giving everybody next door's paper, and the house at the end 16 copies of the Maidenhead Advertiser. And I kept the delivery bag. That certainly showed 'em."
What have you flounced out of? Did it have the impact you intended? What made you quit in the first place?

The American way of doing dates often seems counterintuitive to us Brits.
We at least do dates in order, as it were - day/month/year - but the Americans mix it up as month/day/year.
However, as a scientist, I'd say the logical way to do it would be most significant to least significant.
So you would write today's date as 2008/05/26. Time then follows, e.g. 14:51:16 as I write.
Scientists don't get to make these things up though....
