     Well, I'm not much of a cricket fan (I like the kind of grasshoppers
we used to get around my hometown Saskatoon a lot more), but the bouncer in
the bar out here at UBC is a real pain.

     Not personally, but I had a friend who was kind of rowdy that had a
run-in with him once.  He only came up to the bouncer's shoulder level.

     Not sure what you mean.  I don't usually wear hats anyway.

     PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE keep discussions about abortion out of
net.general!!

     I take it that you meant "one bouncer per oven", indicating that the
number of bouncers depends on the size of the cooking facilities of the
bar.  I think this is a good idea.


     Thanks for posting this poll.  I've often wanted to post to net.general
*myself* to get people's opinions on this subject.  However, I've always
hesitated because I thought it would not be of general interest -- it would be
like posting a poll about that obscure British game, whatever it's called, you
know, the one like baseball, which I don't think they even play in Britain much
anymore.

Thanks again
