I received in spam yesterday an offer to attract men by having bigger
breasts.

So what do you think, guys?
Would I be more attractive with bigger breasts?

I think they're big enough, myself...

I sometimes wonder if there's ph.d. dissertations in the works about things like thread drift. Seems to me that some

In this morning's clutch of spam, I was offered the natural alternative to
marijuana.

The natural alternative to a plant?

Hm...I remember reading a comment by abstract artist Piet Mondrian with
regard to abstract art. He suggested that art with lots of curves and
swirls, etc. was not at all abstract, because nature is full of those. The
only real abstraction is the straight line, because it doesn't appear in
nature.

Maybe it's a similar philosophy here...?

Claude
Hee hee hee hee hee

PS Good overview of Mondrian work and philosophy at:
http://www.artchive.com/artchive/M/mondrian.html
It doesn't mention the "curves as part of nature" argument but does allude
to that attitude.

I thought swatches were supposed to be worn on the arm, where they would

Musta been hopped up on goofballs if he thinks that. He should try
jumping out of an aeroplane without a parachute, and he'll findout

Take the rotation of the earth into account. That's a curve. Basalt

Some few of us have actual religious experiences using the leaves of

The fall would only be a straight line if the airplane was stationary when Wile
E Coyote jumped out, otherwise it be a parabolic arc. It may well *look like a
straight line to the one who is rapidly attaining the earth's surface, though.
IIRC, Bugs Bunny had better science than Roadrunner ever did.

Lists of gay humor . . . a little snicker here. You are
exposed to it all the time. Burce Vilanch which you might
have seen on Hollywood Squares has written for and writes
comedy for many of the top comedians and TV shows. I think
you mean humor unique to gay culture and I will have to
think about how to go about saying what is the underlying
basis for that humor. Gays in general or less likely to
"tell" jokes as to "act out" jokes. More inclined to
spontaneous absurdity based on the human condition. Laughing
at ourselves, our stereotypes, self effacing humor. It is
not unique to gay culture, simply the area we are inclined
to dwell in.

Some good gay humor . . . find a video tape by Margaret Cho
called "I am The One That I Want." Bruce Vilanch's book . .
"Get Bruce" Better still go hang out with some gay friends
because most gay humor is spontaneous fly by the seat of
your pants . . . perhaps I should rephrase that. And the
horrible truth is . . . most gays laugh at the same things
you do. I'm sooo verklempt! It's so hard to give up
uniqueness.

Most of the jokes were heterosexual jokes based on
stereotypes. Some were funny in their tasteless sort of way.
The guy who complied them should pull his head out of his
ass and expand his repertoire . . . or go find out what he
is joking about. Such obsessions should not go unrequited.

Better verklempt than fatchaddet. I should add that bi humor has a
weird twist to it.

Don't feel too bad about exposing your "ignorance", I don't know what
either word means.

Here is an excerpt from a web site.

_______________________
What does "verklempt" mean?

The Yiddish word verklempt {alternately spelled as
verklempt, fahklempt, ferklempt, farklempt, and farklemt due
to inconsistencies in transliteration} was popularized by
Mike Myers' Linda Richman "Coffee Talk" character from
Saturday Night Live. Based on Myers' mother-in-law, the
"typical Jewish woman" worships Barbra: insisting that she's
"like buttah!"

As for verklempt, it's a semi-humorous expression of being
all-choked up with emotion.

Belladonna -- done right -- can also be used as a headache remedy. This
from a gal I knew who had done just that with the variety you can find
growing all over New Orleans. Supposedly it actually loosens the
constricted blood vessels, rather than just covering up the pain of
them. However, I have not tried it for fear of stopping my headaches
(and everything else) PERMANENTLY, which is what happens when belladonna
is done WRONG.

And you wanna risk it just to get high? Tsk.
