    Not that I know that much about transformers movie (only what you had as a kid) so I did the reverse and worked on the medico angle and came up with the number of all but 8 I think are drugs, I must admit there was the odd guess. How did I go?

    And here I was thinking Willis was the nerd!

    It's quite confusing indeed! You got the number right, but there's only 8 Transformers. The up side is that if you ever have the misfortune of needing those drugs, you can be rest assured that their name sounds like it'll kick some ass!

    After a year and a half of living with Willis, I must admit that I'm starting to morph into a super server-hugging computer gleeben who loves silicon not for it's use in groundbreaking plastic surgery procedures, but for its ability to carry massive amounts of information on a computer chip.

    I couldn't be prouder.

    FYI - you forgot my favourite decepticon: Cialis (true to the theme song "more than meets the eye").

    I can't believe you just said "Microgynon" on your blog... you'll get indexed in google and have confused teens stumbling across your site. Let's hope they don't replace their Microgynon prescription with a healthy dose of Optimus Prime.

    That, I don't even want to know what "FemTran" is used for.

    ...or "Probitor" for that matter...
