I had always wondered what MB (We're talking Michael Bolton here
right?) looked like, I didn't realise thats who it was (sorry LisaD).
Next time you might notice that my tastes run more to SC (Sean
Connery) CL (Christopher Lambert) and the bloke out of Terminator (He
was Hicks in Aliens too, but I can't remember his name)

What time was it for you when you sent the vision? because I can
assure you that it could have been better timed ;-)

Now imagine if you will, a scene out of nightmare. A circle of firelight
stands awaiting it's victim. A beautiful belly dancer gyrates slowly
around the circle, causing commotion and tight leather loin clothes
on all sides. A birthday boy (40 yrs) watches raptly as she comes to
a stop in front of him, undulating in sinuous grace. His attention
enrapt in the scene before him, he fails to notice the 7 big guys coming
from behind him, many wearing little or nothing. 4 grab him from behind
and jerk him from his chair down to the dew covered ground. In seconds,
the other 3 have COATED him in peanut butter (chunky AND creamy) from
head to toe. They let him up, but what's the use ? No hot water for
an easy mile or so.

Important PB safety tip:

If you thought it didn't come off easily in HOT water, try it in Ice-cold
stuff...

LA has been known as the 'City of Lost Angels' for quite a while ... it was 
just one of the local 'things'.  I've used that term in the past; it seems 
to intrigue people ... then again, I also love "Under The Bridge", so maybe 
it slipped it subliminally! ;-)

That's right. I was having some trouble posting and wanted to check

Hmm, I can just see the Magpie fans putting the IE on a spit. ;-) When
I left Collingwood was THE most popular football club in Melbourne.
Nobody could come up with a good explanation for why this was so. And
of course those who didn't care for that particular team seemed to
express negative sentiments about it (Just like IE does here.) From
what's been going on in another thread I suspect IE's favourite team
probably comes from St.  Kilda (which is where Fitzroy St. is).

I have to admit escaping from Melbourne's winter football madness is
one of the better things about being in the US!


	Chris!
