I see this thread has re-surfaced, Auntie.

Does this mean you're open for business again, answering the queries of those in need of your advice & wisdom?

Advice? Sure.


Wisdom? Maybe.... :wink:

Oh good!

OK then!

I've been wanting to know, Auntie, when will my ship come in?: In a shortish, middling or a long time, do you predict?

I hear your ship is a bigun (you certainly deserve it.) and cant get in until the dredging is finished in the bay msolga.

Jeez, dadpad! After the bloody bay is dredged!

So it's a long term thing, then?

Aye, aye, msloga. It can be a long voyage, but in this greatest of all possible worlds, the lengthier the passage, the greater the ship's bounty.

Aa has oft remarked that she hopes her ship comes in before her pilings rot and the dock collapses.

I share her worst fears, Debacle!

And I do like this!: "the lengthier the passage, the greater the ship's bounty" .... It adds a rather heroic element to (perhaps) a rather shitty, dragged out voyage!

Ms Deb, what exactly is "rabbit fever" anyways?

It is that state of feverish excitement and joy felt by those who come truly to appreciate the wonder and wisdom of the wabbit.

So, if we are in doubt, we gut the rabbit to see if there is any yellow masses or spots growing? Thanks!

What gall, what a gal! Partial to the name, I call her "Deb."

squirrels are evil. Cute... but evil.

I've been feeding a wabbit all winter, not by intention. The cracked corn and sunflowerseed mixture is meant for the birds, who apparently don't fancy it. The wabbit does. Every morning she's out there scarfing under the patio tree. Or possibly she's just poring over the seed patterns, getting a handle on the day's horoscope.

Be damned if I didn't forget to put the seed out last night, and so this morning the wabbit pecks on the kitchen window, flips me the bird and huffs off in a hop.

You better be good to her!
