what di you mean 'when they aren't'

sounds like science fiction to me

Most of what comes out of my mouth is fiction ... makes telling stories more fun!

ah, but i bet you are clever at science as well

for example recipes

we are having a kind of multi-ethnic multi-cultural festival in my town all week. yesterday i ate some very interesting moroccan sausages with bulgur spiced with olives and capers (and lots and lots of garlic, according to my workmate ) and the day before that i had a very tasty indonesian curry wish you were here

Ooo! I wish I was there also! I love garlic! You just have to be sure to share some of your garlic-y food with the people you're going to spend the rest of the day with! My mother calls it "self-defense"!

i never payed a thought to the fact that there would prolly be garlic in those sausages, so was actually surprised to hear my colleague yell EEEEUUUUWWWW the next morning

your mother is right. garlic always reminds me of the motto of the three musceteers: all for one and one for all

Garlic has a funny way of permeating the bedroom air, doesn't it? You never really know how much garlic you had until the next morning, when the room reeks of it!

indeed. but i can also feel it in my throat in the early hours. and a little later also some more unmentionable body parts

Thanks for not mentioning them!

my lips are sealed

as are my... oops, i nearly did it

I'm not sure that having too many sealed body parts is a good idea. Ya gotta let the air get to 'em sometimes!

aye. and out of them as well

like for instance - the lips

Good instance!

it just came to me instantaneously

You're amazing!

it's a

maybe i got it from you?

You wouldn't believe the postage to send it from here!

Here's to purging the evil Hermes!

aye. hermes. the god of s (among others)

I recall him being a trickster ... they really named that program properly!

yeah, sounds like they are mocking us, doesn't it?
or at least all those that payed good money for it

(holds up finger in the shape of a hook)

Yar-har, I likes me gold and rum!



I s!
