Found on EBay:

> THIS IS A VERY NICE METAL CHESS SET, THE PIECES ARE GREEK LEGENDS,
> EXAMPLE: ARCH ANGEL GABRIEL IS THE QUEEN, DAVID IS THE KING.

Eh? WTF?

I don't think David and the archangel Gabriel are greek mythological characters, dude. I mean, I know both Greek and Hebrew have "funny letters" but that's as far as the similarity goes :)

Onk?

E-Bay should require the auctioneers to cut down on the drugs ;)

Heehee - or ask for a certificate of surgical bypass of the backside when talking :) Looking at the picture with the listing, someone out there is going to be quite upset that their "King David" piece isn't wearing any knickers...

Does that mean Archangel Gabriel, being the sexy queen that he is, will be cast in the pose of royalty strutting proudly around? I suppose we could further scar small children for life just by putting His Angelicness in a tutu as well. ;)

Heheh - before the EBay listing finishes, and this whole thread gets impounded by fundamentalists for being an example of modern immorality, Gabriel (or very possibly Gabrielle) is illustrated here:

*chortle*

There's an interesting bit in last months PC Pro about an interesting piece of software.. it takes the sentence structure and removes the buzz words, bull shit and poor literacy then feeds out the actual meaning...

Appears to work quite well!
