Today I bought an appliance, and when installing the chinese made
batteries, I noticed that they were labelled.. DINRCELL. lol! I wonder
if one day the land of copycats will start making computer programs by
Mikrosoft? lol!

"Natlonal" with red writing on a white background.

LOL! Were they the "CopperBottom" variety of DINERCELL?
Or were they the "CAPPERTOP" battery?

I'd just love to see what the Chinese clone of the
Eveready Energizer Bunny looks like!

My bench drill has the word "MACHWERY" on the name plate (ie the IN

I doubt that Microsoft would let them. MS has recently tried to shut
down a web site set up by Mike Rowe, a young web designer in Canada.
He chose to name his site mikerowesoft.com.

The site's still there though.

At a place I used to work there was one of those Sidchrome tool
cabinets mounted on the wall. Some of the original spanners must have
been replaced over the years - the replacements were branded "FUKUNG"
- no kidding!!

It was a bit of a joke within this place for people to say things
like:
- Where's that fukung spanner?
- Who used the fukung spanners last?
If you asked someone what they were looking for you usually got the
reply "The fukung spanners!!".
