The office motorcycle man always said that.  His pelvis is broken in
four places and an operation has managed to salvage his urether.  A
lorry simply pulled over in front of him.

I always said that.  I used my left leg to smash up the offside front
wing of a Mini which swung to the right whilst I was overtaking.  (We
drive on the left).

A friend's husband always said that.  He ankle is sort of better from
the car which drove out of a side-turning whilst he was already in the
mouth of the side-road.

A car pulled out under our wheels on an Italian Autoroute a few weeks
ago, whilst we were doing about 100 miles per hour.  I was driving a
large red Saab with running lights AND headlights on in broad daylight.
I wrestled a weaving 1.5 tonnes of metal away from the Armco and didn't
hit anything.  Had we actually made contact, we'd have walked away.  Not
on the bikes I've owned :-( And I don't fancy a panic stop from 100mph
on a loaded motorbike that much anyway.

Anyway...it's fun.  I love riding motorbikes.  Just be very careful.

"This is how you tune a Rolls-Royce" he said, vibrating his
tongue as he stamped his foot in time with the pulsating
coils of the refrigerator.  The freezer was empty; we had
arranged the ice cubes in a small but accurate replica of
Stonehenge.  All that was left was a pool of water which
slowly evaporated in silence, an eighteen-minute gap.
We had held our breaths as long as possible, watching it.

"You judge me!  You distance yourself!"
Holding to the countertop with his fingertips, leaning into
his good side, his long neck stretching and his hair falling back.  
Good expression, poor respiration.  His accusation was true.

I was careful not to let the screen door slam as I left.

The thing is, I've got a date tonight and I really want to know how
you can tell when a woman's interested in you.  I mean, it would be
great and everything if we were friends, but I really want to get her
into bed and find out if she knows the difference between boys and
girls!!! Know what I mean??!!  Heh, Heh !!

BTW, what is the difference between boys and girls, i've just forgotten
for a moment?

Anyway, I mean, should I stick my tongue in her ear first, or shake her
hand?  Do I ask her how much money she has before or after I ask her
to marry me?  Actually I'm getting a bit nervous about this red hot
date and all the big, big sex afterwards.  Would any of you like to
go out with her and, you know, say nice things about me?  She's really
nice and is tall with long legs.  I know a joke about that too. Her name
is Kevin.

to restrict my acct to mail only by putting a login.com on my acct which 
automatically puts me in mail when i log on. unfortunately if one hits ^C 
before the login.com file executes it aborts it and puts you in your acct

We were driving through some wooded areas west of Lafayette on our way 
to spend the weekend camping.  I looked down at the map momentarily, 
but my attention was jolted back to the road when my fiancee gasped and 
I felt a sickening thud.  There was a rather large deer riding on the 
hood of the car.  I pulled off of the road, and the deer flopped onto 
the ground.  It had apparently died immediately on impact -- at least 
it didn't suffer for a long time before dying.  The front of the car 
was pretty well crunched in.  The hood was bent up, the grill destroyed, 
and the radiator sprayed steam through a long crack.

About 30 minutes later a police officer showed up, called a wrecker, 
and took us to the station to file a report.  Several hours later we 
got a call telling us where our car was.  By a cruel twist of irony 
it had been towed to a shop called "Deer Radiator."

This isn't isn't a flame about this post. I don't do that. This is a protest

Annie:	See what I mean? Nothing. Placidly. Big deal. It leaves no room

Larne:	(Takes another spoonfull of soup) Uh-uh.
Annie:	No, really. The character should be humming something *_SPECIFIC_*.
	Something to illuminate the character. The writer's got to think,
	"Okay, what's a placid thing to hum?" Or maybe the writer doesn't
	really mean placid, maybe mock placid, like the way my mother used
	to hum in the car when Dad would pass on the double yellow line.
Larne:	Ok, I think I've got you.  So a character humming something by Enya
	is likely to be a rather different character than one humming
	Parcival's Canon.  Both 'placid,' but each with a bunch of other
	implications.  Right?  <Slurp> Even if the character in question
	IS a printer.
Annie:	Gee, you're quick.
Larne:	So which of us is Simplistico?

Every day, every day this god forsaken poem was read on the god forsaken
mini movie screen of satan, I would scream and scream until flecks of
blood from my ripped vocal cords splattered the t.v. screen.
I would turn to Larne and say, "HATE,HATE,HATE!"
I would say, "If I gave a big enough of a fuck I would listen closely 
every time this fetid pustulant piece of prose came on and
ridicule it on talk.bizarre."

Thank you for saving me the pain.

"Foot fits ass, so ride it.
Throat fits fist, so squeeze that trachea tight.
Lips say nothing, so shut them,
and the face they adorn
pummel until
it reminds you of someone you once knew
and hated one hot night, long ago
as familiar as the idoit's skin that fit you like a glove,
like the last idoit you skinned,
who's flesh curved into the shape of your thigh,
like they were custom made to fit by Hannible Lechter.
