[Guest Guest]

I knew that ending on 13 hits last year was a bad omen and so far it has proved to be so.More than halfway throough february and no sign of a single hit .When did you last have such a bad start to the year as this?

Check out the DL Statto thread hereabouts, a question I asked this week. Apparantly, the most successful DL year ever started slowly.

Test drive a trebuchet.

Vote Blah a party hell bent on changing politics via protest votes. Led by a certain Captain Sensible. Now then, the last time a dodgy old comedy rocker led a party of political misfits, didn't he - like - end up topping himself?

[Dave to the Grave 11]

Having just read one of One Shot Paddy's recent posts, I noticed his new signature. This got me thinking about the Pogues, and who actually wrote the 'worm song'. It would appear that it is an old children's song, my favourite version being:-

 

The Hearse Song-

 

Don't ever laugh as the hearse goes by,

for you may be the next to die.

 

They'll wrap you up in a big white sheet,

and put you down about 6 feet deep.

 

So all goes well for about a week,

and then your coffin begins to leak.

 

The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out,

the worms play pinochle in your snout.

 

They eat your clothes, they eat your hat,

they crawl in skinny, they crawl out fat.

 

They eat your eyes, they eat your nose,

they eat the jelly between your toes!

 

Your stomach turns a slimy green,

and pus pours out like whipping cream.

 

You spread it on a slice of bread,

and that's what you eat when you are dead!

 

Anyway, the site I found this version on turns out to cater for the hearse enthusiast., and on hearse collection one is a hearse called 'the Banshee', which may cheer him up a little after being 'passed over' on the 'Monkey' awards.

Swim the Amazon

 

Aside from piranhas, anacondas and swimming in your own pee all day because of candirús (the ones that swim up the urethra then latch on with a spikey thing only removable by operation!) the poor chap has to wear a silly mask to prevent him looking like a Sun reader in the costas.

Find out what cheese you are.

 

 

I'm Neufchatel. A traditional soft, white table cheese from Normandy in France. Neufchâtel smells and tastes of mushrooms. It has a dry, velvety rind, and a grainy texture. When mature, Neufchâtel develops a bitter, slaty, acrid taste.

Your name is: CarolAnn Your cheese rating is: King River Gold

 

An Australian semi-soft cheese, made from cows milk in Milawa, about 200km from Melbourne. It has a pink/orange rind with a dusting a grey mould, and has a sharp taste.

[Monoclinic 39]

Fantastic - surely we should be posting a gem like this in the Patrick Moore thread. Highly scientifc. In case you are wondering I am Mascarpone. A soft white cream cheese with a mild taste. Though I guess I am confused asapparently it is not actually a cheese at all, being the result of a culture being added to the cream skimmed off the milk used when making Parmesan, and as such, it is suitable for vegetarians!

 

My alterego, Monoclinic, however is the less confused dolcelatte.

Probably the best known French cheese, Brie is a soft cheese with a leathery, edible rind, and a white, creamy body. Brie is known as the Queen of cheeses, and used to be part of the tributes that had to be paid to the French Kings.

I don't want to be Brie. I don't want to have a white creamy body. Or be Queen of Cheeses. It's embarassing.

 

I have cheese envy.

Ah, Mozzarella. The Italian Stallion of cheeses. 200 degrees in the oven - melt??? you must be joking. I am too robust for melting.

 

I would take the swap if RM hadn't pointed out the grass isn't always greener on the other side. I really don't want to be known as a curd rummager.

you live in childrens lunch boxes. you claim to be 100% cheese, but you obviously have a high plastic content. you probably didn't come from any animal at all, and are genetically modified. no-one can eat you in one go, you must be peeled, it is the law. no-one ever liked your pizza version, and it went out of production very soon.

[CarolAnn 924]

You sure you didn't make that up?
