Crossy Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 it is spell check, checkers is a board gane Ah, but in this case "checkers" is referring to 'people who check' and so is correct Meanwhile, I think you'll find the board game is called draughts. These two posts are demonstrating perfectly that the OP is 100% correct and therefore is not a joke and should be in 'forum support' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samui Coconut Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 13 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs" I am one of the 13 Doctors remove lightbulb from man's ass On Wednesday, Fateh Mohammad of Multan, Pakistan underwent surgery to have a lightbulb removed from his rectum. The prison inmate says he has no idea how it ended up there. From Reuters: Mohammad, who is serving a four-year sentence for making liquor, prohibited for Muslims, said he was shocked when he was first told the cause of his discomfort. He swears he didn't know the bulb was there. "When I woke up I felt a pain in my lower abdomen, but later in hospital, they told me this," Mohammad said. "I don't know who did this to me. Police or other prisoners."
