What is a "tosser" I've seen it used many times here and have yet to figure it out.

Actually the expression wear it in good health can be found in greek language. I am not going to translate it now

That is actually a good piece of advice, I believe! Just wear your Rollie on your RIGHT wrist and start tossing!

Will boost the power reserve enormously!

That is why JJ recorded such a high PR on his Explorer II lately

I believe we can toss away as much as we like now, without having a bad conscience about it, since we are basically merely throwing or casting something away!

What has a question about 'wear in good health' got to do with the direction this thread was taken in?

supermarz · 13 August 2007, 11:11 PM

i was wondering about this myself the other day ...it seems like a congrats slogan that every memebers are throwing around someone who just got a new rolex.

well i guess u wouldnt exactly go
" congrats on the new watch ...wear it and i hope you die" right ?!

Scooby · 13 August 2007, 11:16 PM

As for tossing, well, as I sit here at my braile keyboard, I can honestly say I'd never do such a thing.

As for "wear it in good health", I can remember my grandmother always saying that to anyone who got a new piece of clothing. It became a big family joke. When I was sick, I used to ask her if it was still ok to wear certain things because she told me to wear them in good health. Used to crack her up.

What a tossed-up, healthy thread this one's turned out to be!!

Yes, a superb example of hijack art. I guess the new phrase we should use when making a comment about a new watch somone has purchased is... "Wear in good health, TOSSER!!!
