Female adults of the human species are a source of endless fascination. For instance, most of them are on a perpetual diet; how silly is that?

That may not be so silly if they fail to become horrendously obese, threatening their health, job prospects and wardrobe budget. Diet is just aa preferred eating pattern for most women.

Women come in all shapes and sizes. There's roly-poly ones and thin stick ones and there's tall ones and and short squat ones and there's officious nagging ones and suspiciously sweet and silent ones and they are all equally beautiful in the Green Zone in Baghdad or up the Khyber Pass.

To burp after a meal is considered polite in some societies, they say, but most people don't like you to be quite so unrestrained or uninhibited. My wife has very strong views on the matter.

matter of fact , as teenagers growing up in germany we always claimed that martin luther was very much in favour of it . we claimed that he had said : "why did you not burb , did you not enjoy your food ? " .

Food is very necessary for our continued existence. If that was not the case I don't see how the goverment could maintain law and order.

Order is preferable to disorder but much harder to maintain for me, at least. I prefer to sit at the computer with a pile of unsorted papers on the table behind me.

Good grief, Spendi, you've been at the furniture polish again. I'm wondering how England failed to score at least one goal in Israel.

Isreal is a place I would never dream of going to. I prefer the pub to which I am now setting off for.

For better or worse we all promised when we got married. As we get older most people regret that statement because we're being told we are getting worse all the time.

"Time for bed" said Zebedee. Ah, yes; who could forget The Magic Roundabout? And wasn't it written or produced by whatserface's father...Emma Thompson?

Thompson's gazelles, despite what many people think, are really Thomson's gazelles, mainly because the explorer they were called after, Joseph Thomson, did not have a 'p' to pot in. Emma's father obviously did, for which I am sure she is truly grateful.

Grateful dead's allusions in songs always amaze me. Kind of American beauty..

Beauty may be "in the eye of the beholder" or in this case the ear, but I must confess I do not know any Grateful Dead lyrics. Maybe I'll improve my education in that respect.

Respect is what one needs. It eases relationships.

(Grateful Dead allusions, American Beauty is an album of them)

Relationships often break down these days. I sometimes wonder if this also was the case, say 60 years ago?

agoraphobia is one of those things it is best not to know about. I don't know what it is myself but requiring people to begin a sentence with a word like "ago" may well be one of the manifestations of it.
