So flour = snow. Check.

I think he learned it from the same place I learned Botany. Particularly in the study of Lupines and the mighty Larch. The Larch are among the dominant plants in the boreal forests of Canada, where my papa was a lumberjack.

Leo,

The previous references were from a Monty Python skit about using humor as a weapon. It involved British WWII infantry going 'over the top' whilest reading from this humor weapon as they marched forward.

A number of developers of this humor weapon died during it's creation-laughing themselves to death. Thus, for safety sake, no single developer was allowed more than a few words at a time.

The Germans, of course, tried to counter with their own joke creation which was faithfully (mis)translated for the audience. I believe Hitler himself attempted the 'how does your dog smell?' joke to his Hitler jugen faithful. Of course, being Germans, their efforts at military-grade humor were subpar.

Hope this helps.

Ahh I see... thanks for info!

While I like British humor very much I never ever liked the Monty Pythons (and never realy watched their episodes)...
