But be careful - it can become quite addictive

OK -- I have found out what S.P.U.D stands for.
Zaphodistra I can guess
... but re-caffiennated Peter Pan?
Are you male or female -- as I said I am curious.
What are your real interests -- one I missed was the English Language.

I'm not sure what caffiennated means...
You could just go to my own Space and try to find out more...

Floh
I said I was interested in English -- not that I could spell. WORD usually takes care of that.
OK -- I have been in your space and at the moment as I get used to this little haven -- can only assume you are mad.
I have been told alabaster is not a nice skin, I am writing in plain text. Should I change to a new skin and use the HTML type text input?

Mad? Me?
Who's talking?
Alabaster? I use the classic skin. The blue helps me to calm down after drinking too much .

I'm starting to get the hang of this place now.
I was a little concerned that it was unmoderated but I see that isn't so.
Has anyone been thrown out for violent behaviour?
Btw -- I have been trying to suss out the id Floh.
All I have come up with so far is a collection of photos by Tacita Dean.

Hi there dd, as you can see I'm a fellow DD around here. Which is why I decided to swing on by your spaceto see if you had already been ACEd and I see Floh has done an excellent job.

With all your wealth of knowledge on a great range of subjects I look forwardto seeing what little gems of wisdom you will eventually notice are missing from the guidewhich you could fill the gap with a thorughly researched article. I'll be keeping an eye out for dd trying to outdo DD on the article front.

I am still learning -- do not expect too much.
I am away for the next 4 days so you will have to get on without my sparkling wit and wisdom.
So, to keep you busy -- what nationality am I -- the clues are in my intro but don't let that color your analysis.
Must dash

I'd say you live North of Hadrians Wall the same as myself. Or else you are an exiled Scot with a perchant for Scotch.

Make mine a though

Wrong. Seek your next clue from Wagner's Ring -- Wotan's other identity.
