Er, that wasn't me, but a poetic guest.

But it has maybe shoved the thread, groaning up to somewhere near the top again?

Yoda

Want more of poetic guest.

Jab

Poetic guest has departed, but he's left his scarf behind, so no doubt i will be in contact again. Shall i pass him your email Jab?

No thanks, Terri. I'm a poet too and I dread to think of the exchanges we might have, especially if they're poetic ones. His post was very good though.

Here are some funny animal jokes:

What do you call 10 rabbits walking backwards?
A receding hair line.

How do you know that carrots are good for your eyesight?
Have YOU ever seen a rabbit with glasses?

Why did the turtle Cross the road?
To get to the ''Shell'' station!

A man walked into the office of the eminent psychiatrist Dr. Heidberg, and sat down to explain his problem. "Doctor, doctor! I've got this problem," the man said. "I keep hallucinating that I'm a dog. It's crazy. I don't know what to do!"

"A common canine complex," said the doctor soothingly. "Relax. Come here and lie down on the couch."

"Oh no, Doctor," the man said nervously, "I'm not allowed up on the furniture."

There were two fish in a tank. One said to the other, "Do you know how to drive this?"

Funny!

My liked the tank joke!!!

I have somehow managed to upgrade Mozilla Firefox to the 2.0 whatever version. I am now the proud owner of a toolbar thingy in English.

Plus been persuaded/bullied/shoved kicking & screaming by Snaily & Pirate Wench onto a sort of silly dating site; which is highly addictive...you get loads af daft tests & can bother lots of people. I think it's called OKCupid...

Today i was invited for lunch at a vineyard which produces Organic etc...ye gods, how the other half lives! A different wine for every course of the meal; most of which i couldn't eat 'cos it was dead animals. But there were a couple of kids there; so we went & had great fun digging up Gigantic Carrots & sat around playing...bass, djembe, guitar...much more fun than what the grown ups were doing i reckon!

I think i shall now proceed to the silly dating site & bother some more people. So far, i seem to be highly succesful, have trails of guys yakking away, maybe it's 'cos i spread my net fairly wide, or maybe 'cos i narrow it down "age:18 to 99", keywords: "longhaired musician/artist."

Oddly enough, most of the ones i meet seem to live in California...

Speaking of children,

A guy walks into a psychiatrist's office with his son on his shoulders.

The Doc asks, 'What seems to be the problem?'

The boy says, 'My Dad is always on my ass!'

I am on OkCupid too! I seem to attract turks in their fifties

For the compliments.

I have used dating sites and the dates that I ever been on where more like job interviews, very formal. They were not many only two and it cost a lot in telephone calls to get the dates. A lot of the ads wanted women in their early twenties with bubbly personalities and tall, energetic, party loving, high flying business women.

Abbi!

Abbi!!!!!
I want a date with Abbi more than any fit young turk!!!!!

Terri, see post 415, do you have Abbi's email address please ?, I lost various ones, including hers, after my old computer/windows gave grief, most I got back from friends of course

Hi Jazz! yes, i have it, she changed it a while back though...i emailed her but no response; didn't like to hassle her if she was having hard times with the computer etc.

So: if you email me (at zendevil *not* hotmail) i'll pass it on. However, i think Smurfles is in phone contact with her & would definitely know the up to date email.

Here in jolly old Angoulême, just about everyone i know is suffering from hayfever, we have a certain type of tree which bursts into blossom around now & increases sales of Kleenex by about 200%. It's a town of red-eyed snotty zombies for the first two weeks of Spring! The dilemma of "do i finally get some air into the place now it's now actually raining?" vs "if i do that i may dissolve in a puddle of my own effluvia" *Ed's entry on that is highly relevant*

Any of "you lot" get hayfever?

zdt

it's me

I do not get full blown hay fever but I get itchy eyes and they water, blocked sinuses with some sneezing. We have fields of rapeseed and when lawn has been cut, I am at the worst. I have heard that eating honey from local bees is good for hay fever.
