*ponders* Maybe she uses her crutch as a pool cue?

Oh, never mind me, I'm still fixated on the similarity between "crutch" and
"crotch" :)

The Nick has now been sucesffully confused :*)

Pinballs? I remember pinballs! Great big analog things, weren't they? With
lots of flashing lights? No, I must be thinking about fume cupboards :)

Well, you know what they say... I'll get _bi_ with a little help from my
friends. Whether or not they can play pool...

Now, if we form a MelbUniBiBimbos club, we could claim the $100 as a club

And what a *function*! And what a club! :)

I dunno, maybe the Acharnians? What about the Frogs? I've run out of wit
right now, so I don't know who'd do Dionysus...

Ah, Joe, you are very kind. And kinda furry? Hm, that pun would have worked
better in Middle English. "Whan that Septembre with his Shoures doure/

wilco. I might just comandeer Timbo's handy electronic diary thingy for the
purpose. It's such a *cute* thingy! Everyone should have one (as long as
their name is Tim and they sing alto in a church choir).
