Monks living on an island off the west coast of Wales have flown in a satellite dish to watch the Pope's funeral on Friday. - Language Log

Wheee! Does it have seatbelts?

"Which is a strange enough new play on words..."

Your subtle sense of humor is highly amusing :)

after reading the article I might note that I hope they are not flying in this satelite come evening time since the pilot and co-pilot will be under the tenets of their vow of silence.

I love your icon. The only way it could be better is if it were in color. She always had the craziest colors in her hair.

yeah :) But, then it being in greyscale allows the imagination to fill in your favorite color.

We (my family) used to bet a dollar each week on what color we thought her hair would be - always fun!

And just to be tangentally random, a quote..

"The central heating was broke again. I had to hold my pussy in front of it. It was frozen solid!"

That's hilarious. I watch the few episodes I have much too regularly. I think the purple was always my favorite. Oh and when her pussy got out in the rain and was sopping wet. She had to dry it out in front of the fire. Yes, I am easily amused. :-)

Purple was always my favorite!

I haven't gotten to watch in years. haven't been able to watch much Brittish comedy. The only ones I own are Red Drawf and I have watched those to death.

When I go to visit my folks I catch Keeping Up Appearances occassionally, but my life is WOEFULLY lacking in good, solid, witty humor. Perhaps I could borrow a couple episodes?

Ah, man after my own heart. Thank you for the morning chuckle. Have you read Eats, Shoots & Leaves yet?

Not yet, although from what I've heard, like she goes on about things the way I would, right down to making the same kinds of grammatical mistakes while she's complaining. :)
