Mmm.... I have no idea what you mean, Ally... Perhaps I should look up "Esoteric"... Would that help?

It has evolved into mediocrity. If it follows the trend it will evolve into nonexistence.

Re: Tolkien and evolution?
Nah, just need either a) to move the keyboard closer to the sensor, or, b) buy some batteries, cause its doing my head in too. c) stop drinking- a ludicrous idea obvioulsy not be considered by any sane thinking person in a kilt.

I will believe that Petty has stopped drinking on the day that pigs evolve wings that permit them to fly.

What do you mean Baingil? I see them all time. Very pink they are too although they have to be careful, what with flying inbetween the roller skating pink elephants.

Are you sure those aren't hogs, Petty? Hogs are more likely to fly than pigs, I mean they want to hog the skies and have them all to themselves, after all!

Ahh you could be right Baingil, hogs of the sky- yes I've heard of those. Good thing too they aren't pigs if it means I have to stop drinking. I'd be sober, I can get a bit crabbit when that happens, well I say a bit I mean a *!#*ing lot. (see what even just thinking about it does to me )

I've pretty much had enough of pigs, to be perfectly honest, Petty - and now - flying ones!
