    As the that old song says "From Hull, and Halifax and Hell, may the Lord deliver me." I've lived in two of the three, - I wonder where I'm going next.

    That would be fine if the mother's a vegan!
    That didn't quite occur to me. It's funny, in the states, they use road kill as fertilizer; I wonder how many vegans are getting a bit of extra protein in their spinach from 2 week old deer....

    My Illinois assignment is finished !!!
    The project manager sent me home with a bottle of Wild Turkey 101.
    After two days driving, I am back in the saddle getting re acquainted with my dog.
    Oh yeah; and my wife, son and cat too.

    Gg
    Well, those girls look like they could make a fair breakfast; but I think I'd go elsewhere for cuddling.

    If you really cared a small obstacle like the Atlantic Ocean should be no barrier. " Frailty, thy name be woman."

    Try as we might, we vegetarians can't succeed. There are measures set by the food regulators in each country as to how many insect parts are permissible in rice etc. Perhaps we get plenty of protein that way.

    I can slip from the TV to a DVD to the computer in three easy movements. There's just so much to do these days.

    I also like hotels - for the same reasons - and I have lived in a few when we were travelling. Superb. It's finally nice to go home and cook in your own time though.

    No worries with me. If it isn't over its limit, the available balance will be about $2-98.

    It's part of an ongoing thesis of mine: Avoiding Credit Card Fraud; keep your card at its limit!

    I don't know, I've begun to notice that since men have been trying to become sensitive for their women folk; they have also increased the irrational behavior.

    Maybe jocky should get some sheep too; or an old jalopy. My dad spent hours tuning up his old cars. I remeber when he ruined 2 tires on the new family car driving through junk yards to find a piece on his old 51 ford.

    You're right Jocky, how could I be so cold when my friend is in need...I'll steal an airboat and be right over.

    I'm not terribly fond of meat; but I try to do my part to keep the food chain balanced...
