As an infant, my little sister had a teddy called Two Lumps because of

household bric-a-bric, I exclaimed, "It doesn't have two ears, it has

You'd be extremely rich by now if I

tumbled over and dumped its contents _five

It isn't hygenic to cook with dogs in the kitchen.

Yes, Kate, honestly! Now, you've been warned, or even *forewarned* for
the next time you mix flour with dogs. (Hyush, puppy!)

Forewarned is fore-armed.

Four arms + 2 legs = 6 limbs, which is a very odd number of limbs for
Kate to have.

Six is also an even number.

The only number that is both odd and even is infinity.

Therefore, Kate has an infinite number of limbs.

(It's left to the reader to prove that Kate's dogs are
infinitely-limbed cats.)

Also in the case of my beloved step-cat, talking while eating. She's a
Siamese in gray tabbyskin clothing and the only thing that makes her noise level
tolerable is the sheer variety of her vocabulary. We never know what's going
to come out of her head next. Sometimes I forget myself and threaten to feed
her peanut butter to plug the hole, but then I remember... She'd just look at
me and go, "MEEOOOOW-ROOOWWW-UUUUOOOWW-OOOOEEEEOOOWWWW!"

And then there's the case of my own birth-cat (well, not literally) who
is just THIS side of retarded. For unknown reasons she's never learned to meow
properly and just squeaks instead. When she's excited she goes "eep! eep!
eep!"

but very little of the practical aspects. For example, would one use a

with a number, ship them separately, and then reassemble them? And then
there's the complicated question of whether or not the country would

Iran: Israel is Europe's problem
09/12/2005 09:23 - (SA)

Tehran - Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad triggered a new
international outcry on Thursday - saying the "tumour" of the state of
Israel should be relocated to Europe.

His remarks, made at the Organisation of the Islamic Conference in
Mecca, Saudi Arabia, were greeted with outrage by Germany, Austria,
Israel and the United States.

Ahmadinejad said that if Germany and Austria believed Jews were
massacred in World War 2, a state of Israel should be established
there.

In an interview with Iranian state television's Al-Alam, he said: "You
believe the Jews were oppressed, why should the Palestinian Muslims
have to pay the price?

==================================

German chancellor Angela Merkel said Ahmadinejad's suggestion was
"totally unacceptable".

Speaking after a meeting with US president George W Bush, Austrian
chancellor Wolfgang Schuessel called the remarks "an outrageous gaffe,
which I want to repudiate in the sharpest manner".

German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said the EU's nuclear
diplomacy is "not made easier by the fact that Mr Ahmadinejad comes up
with new ideas, that the people of Israel could move to Germany and
Austria, to resolve the Middle East problem".

I am not sure this sort of thing really needs to be done. I think it
should be sufficient just to move the people. And the reason I think
that this is the case may be non-obvious.

You see, the Jews claim that the soil of Israel is the "promised land,"
that is, the homeland that was promised to Moses. But, I have seen
pictures of Israel. It's a desert. It's flat, and hot and dry.

Now, God surely must hate the Jews if this is all that he set aside for
him.

I therefore suggest that a team of Talmudic scholars be set to find out
where the promised land actually is. My bet is that it will turn out
to be in Tahiti or possibly Thailand. Once they figure this out, they
can leave that desert to the Palestinians who also seem to want it for
some reason. If they can find just a single reference to Moses drinking
something out of a tiki mug with an umbrella, they'll be home free.

Moses ? He was an Egyptian Prince with some Hebrew blood. His task
was to lead spent slave labour out of Egypt. (no use feeding the
buggers if there's no reward in the fruits of their labour).

Any land would have been sufficient so long as it wasn't in Egypt !

Yeah. It's desert and scrub. The Egyptians aren't stupid.

He had a bit of trouble with the unruly (and now free) slave labour
who spent most of their time quarrelling. In a brain wave he
discovered that there were a few Midianites in the mob so he adopted
their religious idealism and it helped him enormously to climb a
mountain and come down with rules on a stone tablet.

It took some time for these rules to be accepted but as it happens we
have inherited them ourselves (mostly due to Roman stupidity and the
"third party hookin").

Midianite

http://www.christiananswers.net/dictionary/midianite.html

an Arabian tribe descended from Midian, a son of Abraham

They inhabited principally the desert north of the peninsula of
Arabia. The peninsula of Sinai was the pasture-ground for their
flocks. They were virtually the rulers of Arabia, being the dominant
tribe.

Like all Arabians, they were a nomadic people. They early engaged in
commercial pursuits. It was to one of their caravans that Joseph was
sold (Gen. 37:28, 36). The next notice of them is in connection with
Moses' flight from Egypt (Ex. 2:15-21). Here in Midian Moses became
the servant and afterwards the son-in-law of Reuel or Jethro, the
priest.

There's plenty of land here in Australia. We can shift the public
servants out of Canberra and they can administer Palestine.

The Australian Capital Territory can secede from the Commonwealth of
Australia and all the Jewish inhabitants of Palestine/Israel can
migrate here.

John Howard can take up residency in Kirribili.

Below that, a mile-thick layer of coffee.

There's some geological uncertainty. It could be Jaffa Cakes.

The league to prevent wildfowl abuse
would be on you like a ton of unleavened
bread if you tried a stunt like that.

i was utterly lost after my first taste of Tim Tams. i'd been
promised a previously unimaginable treat, and i wasn't at all
disappointed. now i must find a way to return to Australia,
where Tim Tams are sold in the 7-11, and chocolate-covered
candied ginger is available in just about any shop that sells
candy. (although at least i *can* get chocolate-covered candied
ginger in the US; it's just a rather rare delicacy.)

There should be a word for feeling less foolish when you finally
discover some mysterious song lyrics online and realise you never had
any reasonable chance of deciphering them yourself.

This happens to my housemate all the time.

Her unimaginatively named, and now
lost to the streets, terrier "Buddy" comes
to her at any hour of the night, and they
converse together.

I only hear her side of the conversation,
of course.

It is unclear during how many of these
visits she is awake.
