A joke that rewards reading out loud. So that...Yes. A joke that rewards reading out loud. So that you saw it as kooky speaks to your advantage. The letter "C" can be pronounced as "See" (soft c) or "Kay" (hard c). Communism and Socialism both start with a "C" one hard c and one soft c in the form of a "S". A very insipid joke.<br /><br />I am sorry that I accidentally called you Cuckoo.This is a case where bad textual layout and text which is open for multiple interpretation has lead to an insult. Normally you would address a person with "name," and then type the message. It was my aim to do someting different. When I responded to "The brothers G" (Tom?) screaming to me that I should open my sheep eyes I said bleat. Where you said "....kooky" I responded with: "cuckoo,". Not with the intention to call you Cuckoo at all. I should have written: This Cuckoo says cuckoo, and This Sheep says bleat,. This way it would have been clear what I meant to everybody instead of only me.casiovlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310790568616728433.post-58687344492211778542010-10-31T16:29:56.752-07:002010-10-31T16:29:56.752-07:00was that a joke?

Classes and all. Basically it mentions most every subject you talk about. It's an easy and quick yet very good read.<br /><br />As for the "Imperial" system, I think it's one of the stupidest things ever. The increments have no discernible pattern.

...A very good episode, just what I expect from you.<br /><br />Danny, your DIY approach towards your elderly customers is brilliant. You know the saying, if you build a man a fire you keep him warm for a night, if you set him on fire you keep him warm for the rest of his life.<br /><br />I also like your philosophical approach towards historical things. <br /><br />And Tom, part of the joy of studying history is the fact that you never quite know which things of a given historical period will make it through time. Sure, for some things you can say right from the start that they are important and therefore are more likely to being preserved. But there is also so much stuff that the original owners/builders/founders would have hold cheap. And yet these are now precisely the things that "survived" and tell us more about a certain time and place than precious gold coins or the like would have.<br /><br />Hope to hear from you soon<br /><br />ontic5ontic5https://www.blogger.com/profile/17002776409032818378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310790568616728433.post-64148883891516825302010-08-07T08:40:11.096-07:002010-08-07T08:40:11.096-07:00Great Show!

The cans started exploding, we realised this was probably a bad idea, and furiously ran away from the flying shrapnel. As I was tearing up the hill, possibly hollering and laughing, a bug flew into my open mouth and I stopped and realised that we were now stranded in the middle of a large gorse patch, me wearing shorts and gagging on a bug.
