I had at least three great-grandmothers named Mary Wheeler. I don't think they were the same person, but you never know.

*waits to see if Hippie_Alchemist and Paul are related*

"They also serve who only stand and wait" - John Milton

Did Milton serve food in a restaurant?

*wakes up and scratches head* Whaaaaaaaaa....I miss something.......*falls back to sleep*

Did you miss something? I'll say. Something went by. Some say it was a giraffe, others a flock of potfors...

no friggen clue what a potfors is but my first dorm in collgeg had a veiw of a lake and i wake up one morning, opened teh blinds and there was a flock of white Pelicans. 30 to 40, that will wake you up scepially if you aren't wearing the glasses you need to see far away.

A giraffe, a flock of potfors and pelicans.... this place is a zoo.

wnet to the zoo once with some people i know. one of them got sneezed on by an Elk.

OH! don't forget my glora's birds.....or is taht another thread?

Have you been to the safari park?

The birds were another thread, but that's ok.

well if we include her 2 birds, 3 dogs(?), 5 wild turkeys, and tons of birds she feeds, plus the two cats out back she watches....*starts to build an Ark*

The five store cats, the racoons in the shed and the possums that have startled me a few times in the early mornings at the store...

*looks at the forecast*

*hands you some more wood*

5 eh? i've only seen teh two. Thanks for teh warning bout the racoon and posseum.

*looks out again* ummmm mighty dark outside *scrapes the Ark and makes a raft* Well techincally this IS more apperiote for down here right? Besides i get lost on teh cubic thing.

The other cats are only around at mealtime.

A cubit is 18 inches, if I remember correctly.

*blinks* something like that i think..........*goes back to building the ark*

I take it you have seen the weather updates.

yep, wow um want i should save space for you on teh ark? Think the animals will be fine so we can turn it into a Party Ark.

BTW Is May 25 Towel day?

*looks at weather channel(again)*

Yes, I would appreciate a space on the ark.

I think you're correct about May 25th.

You were supposed to ask, "What's a potfor?"

Then I would answer, "To cook in."



It's a groaner.

After four and a half years of encountering British English, typos, and eccentric spelling on this site, I just assume it was meant to be a real word.

I had chickpea creole for lunch.
