    Well, to be perfectly honest, regarding both the "Sidhe" and "goblin teasmade" references...

    I had to both. "Sidhe" - excellent BG. I did find the "goblin" joke (naughty naughty). Now I get IA's reference ( ) but, alas, I don't get the joke.

    GG, I'll tell you that Sidhe is pronounced "shee" and it is the term for earthen mounds in which people used to think elves and fairies come from. Now go back and read BG's post (#3).

    I ain't goin' near the golin reference...

    I hope he doesn't hurt his elf.
    Damn, these kinds of threads are just asking for low class puns.

    Sidhe,

    easy 'nuff. Though I must admit I had to wiki'd it to get the joke.

    Of the goblin teasmade allusion I have no clue whatsoever, except that a teasmade is some sort of An Apparatus Whereby a Cup of Tea or Coffee is Automatically Made (tm), whatever that's supposed to mean.

    I know what "Sidhe" are... but the goblin teasmade, I have found out what it is but I have figured out what the joke is... although it seems to be a product for suckers made by one.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    In the article the letter 'a' in the beginning is too much and in error.
