Tuber Mirum

Thin end of the wedge, mate.

Phil the Greek's outstanding health

He was always a bit of a cantankerous old sod. In spite of his cheery affectation for the cameras. Prime candidate for a premature demise. I wonder if all that healthy red wine could have a life-prolonging effect though?

I found a translation back into english of the German version of the lumberjack song. Really rather senseless if you ask me. I'm a lumberjack and I feel strong. I sleep all night and chop all day I fell trees, I skip and jump I go the the WC On Wednesdays I go shopping And have cookies and coffee I'm a lumberjack and I feel strong I sleep all night and chop all day I fell trees, I eat my bread Put flowers in a vase I slip into women's clothing And lounge around in bars I'm a lumberjack and I feel strong I sleep all night and chop all day I fell trees, wear high heeled shoes Stockings and a bra I'd like to be a little girl Just like my uncle Walter and here's Google's automatic translation which has a better entertainment value by far: The Lumberjack song How are the surviving Pythons keeping? Any of them likely to kick it? Greetings from Germany,

No, it isn't that either.

Just a short word as a new list member to say how honoured I feel to belong to such a fine and respected community. This is how I imagine it must feel to be in the US government.
