We don't lam-Baste people for changing the topic, MrBooks.

I wish some of that French rain would make it this far south. Dream on, too many mountain ranges in between.

Morning all, gonna be a hot one, at 9.30 I was wishing I'd gone out with my hat. The summer, she is here. This city has no sense of proportion. Monday I shivered at that time and wished for a jacket. Thursday I'm sweating just walking to the corner.

British does not mean "English." All citizens of England, Scotland and Wales are indeed British, but only people born in England are English.

Eddy: ripple, mini-whirlpool. My quote is from one of the volumes of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy...can't remember which.

The Welsh mostly feel the same way. When I was in Pontyclun, there was more than one person who spoke of "going to Britain" when they meant England...LOL

There have got to be enough silly water jokes to TIDE us over!

Is "dour" pronounced "do-er" or "dower"? It's one of those words I've only ever seen written down, never heard it said.

We can always just do the wave!

Have to have a think; I don't think I'm all washed up.

I gotta find me a pun or I'll be up the creek!

If it isn't, I'm gonna cry me a river!

I can't allow the new topic to be a washout--go with the flow, gang!

Well, the doctors seem to say that it responds well to chemo, but his wife talks a mile a minute and tells her ideas for facts...so basically we're on our own. I hope so anyway, that he'll make it I mean.

Just found out my pastor has lymphoma. They say it responds well to chemo but he won't be able to start for another 2-3 weeks while they set things up.

We must pray.

Until somebody whips you up to a peak and knocks the peak off!

Brown eggs have whites but all whites are yellow, so what does that say about this yolk?

This convo is getting a bit scrambled, I think y'all are cracked!

I like Hemingway's version: "Why did the chicken cross the road?" "In the rain. To die."
