Cellotaphs

[padanarm]

Sorry. Gotta have a rant.

Just been out and seen another cellotaph. It's got fughing hanging baskets! For Funks Sake!

Are there any drivers out there who want to be remembered by hanging baskets?

And again in English?

I think they mean cenotaph, for a start.

I'm well known on AB for my view that all funerals and memorials are a complete waste of time but, if you're going to have a floral memorial to someone, it would seem to make sense to have one which (unlike cut flowers) lives on for some length of time. So what's wrong with hanging baskets?

Ah, so it seems Cellotaph is a humorous play on the word cenotaph.

My rant and ire is for the fughing hanging baskets at the side of the road. What fughing eejit decides that a speeding youngster who kills his mates wants to be remembered by a fughing hanging basket?

Aw mum! Not a hanging basket.

I've mainly been reading the administrators guide to server 2008, the MS best practices guide for exchange 2007, along with some adobe stuff in preparation for this season.
