For me, it would have to be when my family tells me they love me.

I have been married going on eight years, and I never get tired of hearing that and it always brightens my day.  :D

Surely an HAF desert spoon would be more appropriate?
All types of cutlery are welcome at HAF  ;)
Even triune cutlery?


(This gives me reason to be cheerful.  ;D)

I think anyone who could use the pictured cutlery would be regarded with awe.
Do these things come with a warning to wear eye protection?

Does the word awe originate from some greatly impressed open mouthed person going orrrrrrrrrr...?

Congratulations on having a highly developed trivia knowledge centre, very impressive. Were these designed for amputees?

They would definitely be a strong addition to food fights! ;D

I was sad enough to look this up.  Apparently it comes from the Old English "ege" meaning fear.  This rather confused me until I found out that "g" in Old English is "yogh" - a "y" sound.  Wikipedia fills me with awe, and is another reason to be cheerful.  ::)

Thanks - I like to call it "Google". ;)  They don't appear to have been designed for anyone...

Hmm, I was thinking hammer.
I was thinking shiny hammer, I found a beer hammer I liked.
But I decided on this Thor hammer.

It says this but it's hard to read.
"Whoever holds this hammer if he be worthy shall possess the power"

And I must point out it's poor form to hit someone with a gifted hammer.

Not many beers require a hammer these days do they?

I checked my marks from my last semesters modules and on PDP (Personal Development and Planning) I got 100%. By all accounts this is the first 100% on any module in the last 5 years. Now I was expecting a good mark as I had done everything expected tons of times in real life so it was just a question of doing what was asked of me by a very good tutor. But none the less it was a nice surprise to get a bulls eye!  ;D
