Just got back from a food and wine tasting at the beach with Larissa and her two funky neighbours. It was hard to find veggo options but there were all sorts of exotic dishes featuring rabbit, lamb and venison.
After sampling a least one of each, Larissa was just finishing off her last delicacy when she casually announced, “I think I’ve eaten an entire petting zoo.”

Charles spent the entire pubic holiday this Friday fixing the TV system he built. Until now, it has taken no less than 6 steps to turn it on and the following instructions to turn it off:
Ctrl + Alt + F1
“root” + Enter
“G%!!tr*f” + Enter
“halt” + Enter

Bush flew in last night with 3 jumbo jets, 700 people and 20 cars (including his one bullet-proof limo).

And just think of all the carbon off-setting that will take.
sigh.
