I just saw an ad on Yahoo saying that if one has yellow teeth one should not pay
for white teeth and that there is a secret trick.

I think I know the secret.

Ok... nice notices about 4/20 or 42/0 or whatever... it wasn't nearly as
confusing as it might have been... then again I am not chemically enhanced.

3 posts in a row...

Is that all there is my friend?

It seems that we may not be able to stimulate a renewed interest in silliness...
though MW appears to have tried... and I certainly jumped through a few hoops
and sidestepped some well considered protocols of using higher brain functions
in an attempt to do so.

So... let's make a decision here...

I say we take this Group and make it a discussion forum on some deep and arcane
discipline.

May I suggest a few?

The deeper meaning of the songs of Groucho Marx.

The true nature and etymology of platypii.

A discussion of the 12th chromosomal pair in the genetic mapping of amphibians.

The melodies and structure found in the subharmonics in the leaves of Hibiscus
(I'm thinking about a doctoral program in this field)

Here is an oldy but a goody:  PEEPS!  Can we trust them?

A related field:  Marshmellow Bunnies... Unsafe at any speed.

So... let's let all the 232 or something others who are members of this Group
and undoubtedly lurking about just waiting for an opportunity like this speak
out.

chirrup  chirrup  chirrup...

Was that crickets?

Oh well... if nobody likes these and no one comes up with something that just
grabs hold and pulls real hard... Oh I don't know... I don't intend to spend
much time trying to revive the silliness...

Oh well...

good luck to us all and keep your towel dry.

Let's ride Pancho.

Ok... now here is the deal.  Since mkworkman is one of the two... or maybe three
I haven't checked lately... corporeal entities with the responsibility of
maintaining the integrity of the semi-sentient ego expressions of the other
members of this Group it is apparent that in the fullest understanding of
psychic synchronicity any instance of his talking... or for that matter my
talking... and then subsequent posts in response to these expressions will
always be uhmmmm... talking to ourselves.

Uhmmmm... wait... what about the possibility of there being other sentient
corporeal beings who have been lurking about the Group...

Eeeeek!

Or even worse... what if all of this is just an ethereal dream...

Cool!

No wait... uncool...

Uhmmmm... I'm confused.

I am personally hooked on Dexter -- that show is great. A show about a serial
killer who kills serial killers...heh

Today the price of a barrel of oil rose over four dollars to more than fifty two
dollars a barrel.  This indicates a downturn in production related to the
availability of oil.  Exploration is difficult though as anyone in the know...
uhmmmm... knows.  They look for oil in Texas.  They look for oil in certain
places offshore.  They look for oil in the producing fields in various parts of
the country (all of these are of course domestic production opportunities)...
Now, for those who have noticed there is a definite problem that is evident. 
They are checking for oil in all of these different places.  How are they going
to find any oil checking all of these places when everyone knows that all of our
dipsticks are in Washington D.C.

I think it's about time I re-read The Hitchhiker's Guide and reconnected with

Anyway, happy 4/2 Day everyone!
