Multitasking, H1N1, and Curry

Oh come now, a loud arrogant redneck who doesn't know what skunk smells like? Turn in your shotgun at the door.

Haven't been to London lately, have you? grins... it's nothing but Americans, immigrants, and other tourists last I was through.

The last of the Angles, Saxons and Normans were defeated not by weapons, but by a hefty parking surcharge... and it's not entirely a bad thing, as evidenced by the general improvement of the food...

OH, I have smelled skunk. I have even had to hose skunk off my truck tires. But the closest thing to a ferret I have seen would be a skinny groundhog.


Anyway, I thought we were talking about people sniffing weasel butts.

I know an English girl, she refers to all English men in London as "drunken wankers". But of course she isn't really English, she is Canadian and just lives in London.

I thought I'd check in on this thread... having second thoughts...

Once that sentence put the image into your head, you can never forget it.

Ferret is "skunk lite". Quite nice in moderation.

No, cat butts. Bringing in weasels was an attempt to muddy the waters.

Well that proves everything right there, then. See! Perfect example!

If you are looking for the English look in Spain, or Germany, or maybe even California...

Portland, Oregon has a good population, as well as one of the best English dives [the Horse Brass on SE Belmont] , although the smoking ban has ruined the ambiance.

I nearly regret the cat butt comment now, but having an interest in zoological oddities, this proves entertaining. On the cat butt commenter's behalf, I am familiar with the cat butt to which said commentator referred. I would have said old Nacho Dorritos, me.

Like cat owners don't know what I mean. When they (cats, not commentators) prance about your newspaper, rears swiveling and shoved in your face, I have yet to smell antique rose.

London is full of the English. They commute from Winchester.

People still read newspapers?

A blog.. Jig needs one.

Would that be an antisocial networking tool?

I cant help it, I love Diet. I like the way it tickles at the back of my throat and doesnt make me feel full.

I know that girl. And she's right; they are drunken wankers.

I know but I just dont have teh time. And yes, people do read newspapers. And I get Times Literary Supplement also sent to me. I have them ironed first so they are nice and flat. All civilized people iron their newspapers.

I read the newspapers. Online, that way I don't have to worry about them getting soaked or stacking up before I can get them to the compactor's recycle bin.

Sure you can!



Ugh, that's the aspartame/phenylketonurics that're eating your brain talking



Sparkling water with lemon does that. So does sparkling green tea. So do a few other things that I can think of ))))

I still drive my husband crazy being able to read a book, carry on a conversation, actually listen to our kids, and follow a TV show at the same time.

At work today, during an hour of time: worked on updating a computer access permission list of 927 students, assisted several teachers with files students had sent via email (MS Works at home, all the school computers don't have the converters installed), helped two other students with Movie Maker and music files to use with their movies, disinfected two workstations (not what you might be thinking. 2 special ed kids were in and the keyboards were kinda saliva dripped on by the time they left), finished installing an astronomy program on 25 workstations for a teacher. I'm sure there is more, but can't remember right now

My kids can't figure out why we eat quick to cook stuff during the week, LOL! Dang it! I'm TIRED by the time I get home.

Oh yes, am also trying to avoid any flu for at least 2 weeks. We have non-refundable plane tickets to use!

NO!!

The Media & the Government would NEVER LIE to us!!!


Sad too, is how we now have to call it N1H1. Swine Flu was "upsetting" the pork industry, and "Mexican Flu" was considered 'racist'.


Is it me, or is this world more F'd up than a Football Bat???


Oddly enough, I've encountered several british & scotish folks in Pittsburgh.

I noticed one guy had a very light british accent. Another was more thick.

I also noticed, no matter what the woman looks like in person, on the phone that accent makes her sound like the sexiest thing around.

Heh! You can go somewhere and have people recognize your accent and say "OH! You're British/Scottish/Southern", BUT.... when they hear "Yinz goin' dahntahn for a sammich??", they know EXACTLY where yer from!!!

OK this person is multi-tasking and really impressing me. Amazing educator and facilitator (and I dont even have kids or like schools)
More power to you, Sue Peregrine!

But you have only managed 60-odd posts here in five years.

Pep (Slacker! )

As you wake Pep, I must sleep. try to have a happy time without me, my little welsh lambkin.

If the cats allow it.

My rabbits are also extremely up to date on current events.

I find that the weekly fliers from the local grocery store are quite enough to keep our snakes occupied. Reptiles simply don't demand the same kind of intellectual stimulation as mammals.
