But... I like "stone" as a unit, folks.

FS, pray tell... What is "palt"?

I can't keep typing in martians.....

JRO 25 Jan. 21:13, from: 209.141.24.159, brown

FS 25 Jan. 21:14, from: 130.240.2.112, turquoise
1 pound = 0.4536 kilogrammes (kg)
1 stone = 6.350 kilogrammes

JRO >> "Palt" is slimy stuff made of potatoes. FS claims they're good,
but the only time I tasted one, well, it tasted just as slimy as it
looks...  :-P

Oh, by the way, Haley Jane writes me email, and says she does

because it has pork in it. I don't think that pigs are cannibalistic,
are they?

Jabba woke up screaming, another one of her nightmares.
     "Hamsters," she sobbed, "Thousands of them. Combat hamsters, 
built like Rambo, like Arnold Schwarzenegger, machine guns and 
little ammunition belts on their shoulders, medieval armor and 
broadswords, little hamster chests bulging with muscles. AND THEY 
WERE COMING FOR ME!  It was horrible, just horrible. I clawed 
one, bit another, but they kept coming..."
     Another one of her hamster nightmares.
     I petted her and scratched behind her ears, but it was 
wearing on her, you could tell by the bags under her eyes, the 
way her paws shook as she poured herself another gin.
     "When is it going to end?" she mewed. "It wasn't my fault, I 
thought it was a bleach blond mouse, or some kind of 
strange mole. I didn't know it was a pet. How could I have known?  
Nobody told me! Hamster, mouse, you can barely tell the 
difference when they shoot across the floor like that. I 
was just going on my instincts, like any self-respecting cat. I 
didn't know. Why is god punishing me like this?"
     She emptied her glass of gin and reached for the bottle. I 
stopped her and took her paw in mine. In my hand, I mean. 
"Listen, baby, this stuff isn't going to help things. Its in the 
past, kiddo. You got to learn to put it behind you."
     She shook her head and looked out the window at the night. I 
knew that her fear-wracked mind was filling the streets out 
there with revenge-crazed hamsters, the pets of a thousand sweet-
faced, sleeping kids. Bloodthirsty hamsters, armed with daggers 
and poisoned tunafish, waiting for their chance at her.
     "Get some sleep, baby," I said. I rubbed her scruff, the way 
she liked, and she curled up on her side, licked a drop of gin 
off a paw, drifted off. Poor kid.
     She was something else, that Jabba cat. A Blue and White 
British Shorthair, a real classy dame. It was a shame to see a 
feline driven to drink like that. But it was out of my hands. I 
had taken out a hamster myself once, an accident, sure, but I knew 
how the guilt could gnaw at you.

Crap on Your Hat
without apologies to the silly doctor

The crap on your hat
Dripped into your lap
Slap it, oh, slap that
Gross crap off your wrap!

A fat flying cat
With a spigotty tap
Wakes you from your nap
To crap on your cap.

Listen! You hear that?
That ?flappity-flap??
ZOOM goes the sky-cat
Your hat?s on his map!

ZAP goes the sky-cat
He sees where you?re at
SPLAT goes the cat-pat
THERE?S CRAP ON YOUR HAT!

this the Dead Poet's Society?  (movie title)

"dead presidents" 'cuz they're pictures are on the bills.  If everyone
is from elsewhere (Canada, Sweden, etc.) reference is lost on you.

is on the $5.
   I bet no one can name a president on the US $10 bill.  No one.
   Or the $100 (old format or new, doesn't matter)
   In US it's a good question.

No, wait a sec.  I DID see it.  They absolutely crushed the spirit of

viewing it, it did make me angry at the ending.  You are right.

Aha! I found it.

FT;
That Nash poem always reminds me of
my recollection of a poem by anonymous:

                       ,,,
                     ~~'J'       As I was walking down the stair,
                        =    M
                       _|_  /    I met a man who wasn't there;
                      | | |/
                      | |        He wasn't there again today;
                      | |        
_________________     | /\       I wish, I wish he'd go away.
                /|__  E | \
______________ /   /|_  |  \
              |__ /  /|/_  |

                                |/________________

Although someone claims that it is:

>I met a man upon the stair,
>A little man who wasn't there.
>He wasn't there again today.
>Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

Yours is all that dull green. (also called lettuce in the movies, I think.)

THere was a young lady from Crete
Who was so exceedingly neat;

She stood on her head
To be sure of not soiling her feet.

on the road and decide to travel with them because it seems more friendly.

FT; Look at the poem again.

                       As I was going to St. Ives,
                       I met a Man with seven Wives.
                       Each Wife had seven Sacks,
                       Each Sack had seven Cats,
                       Each Cat had seven kits.

                       Kits, Cats, Sacks, and Wives,
                       How many were going to St. Ives?

The person going to St. Ives would certainly be travelling faster by
himself than the Man with all those heavily laden wives. Then, being
friendly, might try to help those poor ladies....

answer itself, which would have been apropos and correct!  If you
didn't pass anybody (cute and reality-based supposition), then...?
I.e. you held up a mirror to me (your mirror based thingy was not
postedto anyone in particular!) to look at and it contains the actual
answer and person who's going there!  Understand?  Just great!

llizard [home] 25 Jan. 23:50, from: 209.161.225.233, green
FT; I just looked at the Rackham to see if he had any feeling about
which direction all these folk were going.

You have to love Rackham's illustrations!

(I hope you have now understood that I know what the answer is supposed
to be....)
