You do know how to whistle, don't you? You just put your lips together and blow.



Alternatively,


You do know how to dial, don't you? You just put your finger in the hole, and make tiny little circles.

You've learned to whistle
And I've learned to dial
Let's get us a phone and while
Away the time
(Hearing strains of Sweet Georgia Brown...)



Too much coffee has't thou, O'Patio...

This place has certainly digressed. I think it is back to the apeman days already!

Gezzy,

The table is laid for our cake parade, (ouch !)
Please don't bring lemonade,
A nice chilled chardonnay,
Should help the day while away,
Lets hope the cake is the grade !

Is foo foo related to Deb ?

Chardonnay it is :-)

I'm not sure if Foo Foo and Deb are related. I never asked, but they sure do look like they might be. Hey Deb, could it be that you and Foo Foo could be long lost cousins?

Foo Foo is my bunny Deb. If you are not related to her, maybe you are to my friend here...

Should have cleared that up, soft or hard boiled?

heee heee gezzy - Margo sent me that picture - and I tried to send it on to a number of e-friends - as a photo of me in my winter coat! However, it scrambled in transit - and now here it is again.

I truly do not think of mine as a Foo-Foo - (nor Fifi) sort of a family - but 'tis a wise Bunny that knows its own relatives!

SOFT-boiled, Wilso. Like me.

Yes foo foo must be related to Deb ( nice coat !) as thats what she exclaims when I have posted something particularly abstruse- what does the foo- foo- fool think he's doing.

I have never never in all of Never-Land called you a foo foo fool, or even a fool, or even an i-i-i-i-ii-idiot!

Nor thought it!

I am a little underwhelmed at you limerick scansion and syllableage - but that is a whole other question.

OK OK hands up my use of dactylic hexameters, metric feet and all have been a tad lax.

Once Blatham came in with his size 14's I just continued on purpose non conforming, I will try to conform to the correct limerick format in future dear headmistress :-

If you want to write lim'ricks sublime,
(And I'm sure you can learn, given time)
Forget "meter" and "feet",
Just remember this beat,
And whatever you write--make it rhyme!


Olay !
