The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Quote of the Day

"Very sorry to knock you up, Watson," said he, "but it's the common lot this morning. Mrs. Hudson has been knocked up, she retorted upon me, and I on you."

British people probably don't think you're funny at all. I'm sending this link to Nicola in New York, just so someone who doesn't think your funny will read your post.

Yeah, but British people don't count.

Surely, they must count, don't they? Wasn't Newton a Brit? I think I read that in "The da Vinci Code" so it must be true. He invented Calculus, didn't he? That doesn't have much rat in it, but its got numbers. Oh granted, Calculus is more than 1,2,3,4,5....ad infinitum, and so on, and so on. But its got some numbers and if you know numbers you can count. So, if Calculus uses numbers, and Newton built Calculus, and Newton was a Brit, he must be made of wood. Ergo, Brits do, in fact, count!
