No. Feck off.

But, other than that, this thread will not die.

Surely it must die some-day?

I suppose we've all gotta go sometime.

 

But this thread will always live on. If not here, then in our hearts, and the tales of glory that we tell our grandchlldren. For they will come to know the pain and the glory of teh cracked ball.

 

Except I still don't know if the customer was happy :( 

I'm sure they were happy.

 

The crack merely adds to the overall perfection. And gives them something extra for their money.

Particularly if he gave them the link to this thread as part of the package.

He should.

 

Then we could charge them for looking at it and become rich.

W00t! We'll retire to the Caribbean. I'll bagsie the sunloungers if you order the drinkies.

It's ok, I emailed our order in half an hour ago.

 

The coconut-clad waitresses shall have them ready at our private sun-loungers for when we arive.

You think of everything! \o/

I have my secretary do it for me.

Um, the thinking, I mean.

Thanks for clarifying that :') 

Right, if you post any more in this thread you must include an interesting fact about the year corresponding to the post number.

 

So, I just want to say that I like vanilla.

 

* On March 3rd, 1875, the first performance of Bizet’s Carmen was at the Opéra Comique, Paris. *

I also like vanilla. Interstingly, did you know that music was sent down a phone line for the first time in 1876, the year the phone was invented.

Pah. I reject your proposal. Much like Ottoman Turkey did with the proposals for internal reform and Balkan provisions in 1877.

It's all coming together now, because I once ordered Vanilla ice-cream over a telephone and 1878 is the year that the originator of this thread was born.

1879 ~ Rorke's Drift

And in December 1880 the American Society of Mechanical Engineers was founded, in NYC (apparently).
