That also solves my identification problem in post #204. That is a female of
that species. Here is a female of my species, my mom in fact.





What a lovely singing voice she must have (Ghostbusters).

That's Gornier Go-217 to you. I must admit my mama had a dalliance with a horned toad once. Whether I am the issue of that I have never pursued.

Can you pick off flies with your tongue? How about drones?
And if so, do you demonstrate in bars to get "attention" of the female persuasion? The world wonders ...

One time I did. I think her name was St. Pauli Girl. I can't be sure because I was blasted, but it might have been.

Maybe it was having teeth pulled. Mannerheim wasn't that bad but he was pretty tough. I think Adolf was on cocaine when he came to visit so that didn't much matter.

With some evil twats it is at least possible to see how they could mesmerise and en-trance their audience by the power of their oratory performance. But Mussolini..... I mean seriously.... Mussolini... how could anyone not just want to laugh at the buffoon as soon as he stood up and started doing all those ridiculous pouty expressions? What a truly ridiculous (as well as evil) individual....

Knowing that you would be beaten to a pulp if you laughed would put a damper on things. Not cheering was probably enough...

Well you really should pop into the General Discussion Forum from time to time. We don't bite and even Gorns are welcome

I think you would like the Australian Beauties thread for some reason - and your postings would be a welcome addition.


I was there a long time ago and nobody appreciated my complete and utter infatuation with Rachel Ward.

I am not sure, but I think I must be nobody then.

You are admitting to a complete and utter infatuation with Rachel Ward? May I buy you a Guinness? That's all we'll ever get out of that.

I don't explain things to dummies. To intelligent fellows such as yourself I may give clues.

I just find that individuals who gesticulate a lot and make goofy faces do that to give the impression that there is an actual mind at work. Now I do appreciate people who believe that persons who don't know much of anything about much of anything but pretend they do or say they have good minds and will figure it out are heroes. I also feel it would be foolish not to entrust your family jewels to people like that, if you can't trust them who can you trust? I most respect individuals who point out that they are the best at something they never did, or that they are the only one who can solve a problem they never thought of before. If these are not heroes, who are?

I will no longer need my current signature as soon as one of these heroes steps forward and begins to solve all our problems.

I am admitting my complete and utter infatuation with all females. The few exceptions are not worth mentioning.

She did make quite an impression on me when I watched The Thorn Birds.

She made quite an impression on you? As Richard Nixon said (about this exact thing, trust me) I will say this about that: Can you give me any pointers as to where I should expect her to make impressions on me? Do I need to provide her with any special tools to accomplish that?

I am so envious that you have a furnace. 40 degrees outside and they turned off the central heating.

That would be Temperatures of slightly less than 0 degrees Centigrade / 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Despite perceptions that Canada is North - Toronto is geographically south of Minneapolis St Paul / Seattle and other significant American cities (including all of North Dakota and Montana)

2) I am solely responsible for the weather.

I opened my backyard pool last Thursday. I am actually pleasantly surprised it did not snow.

If I open my pool it will be cold.

If I wash my car it will rain.

If I store my snow blower it will Blizzard

etc.
