Do you think a good way to threaten somebody is to light a stick of dynamite ? Then you call the guy and hold the burning fuse up to the phone. Hear that? you say. That's dynamite, baby.

Clique-clique and me were "Just Good Friends" so technically, she can't be your aunt, and since that nasty fall in the bathtub, she's given up the tap dancing

Just glue a fat rabbit on your head for extra hare...and I'll leave the cat-flap open for ya! Ok?
I will employ the services of a fat rabbit if the Bobby Charlton wig I have on mail order fails to turn up.
I have taken the unprecedented step of forsaking my sticky toffee pudding and custard in order to have a cat in hells chance of getting through the flap on my mission impossible.
P.S. I prefer the rabbit flavour whiskas, but I'm not too fussy Rapunzel

Uncle Kram how bout some humor on this one, so it dont get to serious on the other threads where I asked the same thing!
How can we live with the "Militant Radical Islamic Fundamentalist" that follows a Jihad order?
How does this differ from the Islamic fundamentalist that supports the Jihad but wont fight?
And What percentage of peaceful Muslums exist on the earth in contrast to the Milatant Radical Islamic Fundamentalist?
Can I ask the audience or go 50-50 on this one Far?
The whole issue of Jihad is one that I find most depressing as I can see no end to it. As long as hatred is indoctrinated in the young and impressionable, I only see radicalism spreading like an incurable cancer.
Even though my hometown was bombed by the IRA in 1974, we never felt particularly at risk. But of course the whole world turned on its head post 9/11 and I think very few of us feel safe anymore. Fact is , there have been, and almost certainly still are, Al Qaeda cells in my hometown, so we're probably gonna feel like that for the rest of our lives.
Personally, I can't see the difference between militant radicals and those that support them. Killing in the name of religion?- That's why I don't buy into it.
I suppose that the majority of Muslims are as concerned about the state of the world and the safety of their families as we are, and if there is a voice of reason to be listend to, it has to come from them.
Trouble is, when you distort a religion to justify your own agenda, you're past the point of listening. And it's not just Muslims that are guilty of that.
Anyway Far, I don't do serious so I'm probably talking bollocks and I'll leave this one to my more learned friends
My female cat is in heat. However my male cats are both fixed. The poor thing is in need of some loving. Is there anyway you can come do a housecall and help poor Lilo out?

I saw a news header regarding the proposed remake of the tv show, 'The Office' for a french audience.....
..........how are they going to make the French David Brent even more of a social nightmare than your average frenchman?
I think you've hit the nail on the tete there Clancy. This idea must surely run out of steam and fall at the first hurdle. ( blimey - I can't get a metaphor in edgeways)
Not being au fait with French humour, and I'm led to believe they do have one, it's difficult to say if it could work. This of course was said about the American version and that became a success as it's more or less the same language.
The key element of course is Ricky Gervais - I mean, who else could dance like that outside of a wedding reception?

Dear Snooze
I would love to answer you question, but I'm reluctant to transgress the stringent code of The Magic Circle or I'd never be allowed to "find" coins behind childrens ears ever again.
I once had "Tennis Elbow" in both elbows simultaneously which was extremely painful and required Cortisone injections.
The funny thing was, I had'nt even been playing tennis!

Sure Sheryl
Always happy to do home visits in Texas after morning surgery. Would you be able to send a photo? - ..and she's definately female right?...I' mean there's nothing odd about me.
I've got a few domestic shortcomings to attend to this morning then I'll be off to get "Lilo" tattooed on my arm
SnoozeControl wrote: Is being punny an inherently British ability or can anyone learn?
There is no doubting that puns are an intrinsic part of British humour, and the British press are prime exponents of playing with the quirks and double-meanings of our native tongue.
Of course, they're not everyones cup of tea at home or abroad. I'm led to believe that in some Mormon controlled areas, an over-exposure to puns if delivered in a Scottish-English pincer movement, may induce loud and prolonged screaming in the victim.
This has yet to be verified by wav file evidence though.
You could consider an Open University course in puns Snooze, but you already have the requisite credentials
Dear uncle kram, do you think that it is good for one's mental health to operate a cyber advice column that it viscious and cruel? I believe it is an excellent method of catharsis for one's own troubles, however, that may be just speculation?
