Is that a threat or promise? Promises are broken, threats are always kept.

This "Unutterably Silly" suite is pretty interesting. It should have its own forum.

very nice...
too many of mine depend on puns and you can't translate them. here's one for making fun of someone butchering your language : "he speaks french like a spanish cow." can be applied to people with poor english skills as well ; spanish cows are notoriously bad at languages. |

Well, being an Australian, I am completely unfamiliar with any colloquialisms, and might have to leave this thread alone.
Besides, today I'm as busy as a cat burying shit, and I'll be flat out like a lizard drinking all day. No doubt this banana bender'll end up as dry as a dead dingo's donger and I'll knock the top off a coldie later, no doubt. So, rather than sitting here in this thread standing out like dogs' balls, I'll have to shoot through and be off like a bucket of prawns in the sun. I'll still be within cooee though, not down the far end of the long paddock, so if you want to give me an earbashing, don't get all cross as a frog in a sock. Just say g'day and I'll be down quicker than I can skull a throw-down. Hooroo, Marc (a coupla snags short of a barby) |

This thread makes me more nervous than a long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs... no, make that a sparrow at a skeet shooting contest. I've gotta tell you, I should probably stop reading this thread because I can't afford to pay attention.
Boy, I'm funnier than a screen door on a submarine Heard said to Marty McFly... why don't you make like a tree and beat it. BOb |
