I've been waiting for that for weeks :wink:
Ten stories up, I run the joint;
You man the firm's front door.
We're nicely placed to prove a point
Of economic law;
For, if I choose to urinate,
And if my aim is true,
What I dispatch will very shortly
Fall, alas, on you.
Which illustrates, if I'm correct,
The so-called 'trickle-down effect'.
(by Evan Elpus)
I think I'll stick to Lord, if that's alright with you
For when I choose to urinate
I know my aim's not true
And as for Evan Elpus, I'd never heard of he,
A poet in America?
Well, goodness gracious me,
I'll just sit here in my Castle, to think what might have been,
Sued by Evan Elpus, Me?, a cousin of the Queen?
Maybe he's a relative, one "L" instead of two,
I'll trace his geneaology
That wont be hard to do
A family in America? Now wouldnt that be fine,
He thinks he's just a Yankee
But his blood's as blue as mine
He could visit us in Droitwich, and have a cup of tea
Good old Evan Elpus, Queen Elizabeth, and ME !!

Why? It's nice to know there's a fellow Richard Dawkins fan out there with me.

I agree, if I see Eorl's name around anywhere I'll usually click there just to see what he's got to say.
Thankyou for your input everyone, I've decided to change my name after all.
You could change it to Horologists Guidedog?
I used to have another name...my REAL ONE!
I was brand new to technology, and didn't realise it would show
Send a note to support (click Contact Us) all the way at the bottom of any page) and we will do the name change on a one-time basis. That is, we will only change the name on your account one time.
I use the same tag everywhere - it's my name!! If I had to change it it'd be one of my goth nics - at the moment I'm on Razorblade Kisses, and before it was Damaged Roses...
I'm also thinking about changing my name, JoeFX has been with me for too long and well I'm beginning to like it less and less. It's just that I haven't found an alias I really like.
watchmakers guidedog and boomerang are great nicknames.
(I still don't get why Watchmaker's Guidedog started a whole new account -- Marquis de Carabas or whatever -- instead of just changing the name on the old account.)

Maybe it is not him? hmmmm
I have used Intrepid for so many years that I am thinking of changing my real name to Intrepid :-o
Intrepid, you can change your name to whatever you like, as far as I am concerned (although it does have a certain je ne sais quoi to it), but never, repeat NEVER, think of using Celine Dion on your Avatar.
I know she is Canadian, but there is a limit, y'know!
Celine Dion and William Shatner are two acts of revenge wreaked upon the American public by the Canadians in reprise for two centuries of invasion-fear anxiety . . .
. . . and we'll get the bastids for it, too ! ! !
Blame Canada
South Park Parents
Times have changed,
Our kids are getting worse
They won't obey their parents,
They just want to fart and curse.
Should we blame the government,
or blame society, or should we blame the images on tv No!
Blame Canada! Blame Canada
With all their beady little eyes,
their flapping heads so full of lies
Blame Canada!
Blame Canada!
We need to form a full assault, it's Canada's fault!
Don't blame me, for my son Stan, He saw the darn cartoon,
and now he's off to join the klan!> And my boy eric once,
had my picture on his shelf, but now when I see him,
he tells me to fcuk myself> Well, Blame Canada!
It seems that everything's gone wrong since
Canada came along
Blame Canada!
Blame Canada!
They're not even a real country anyway.
My son could of been a doctor or a lawyer, it's a true,
Instead he burned up like a piggie on a barbecue>
Should we blame the matches? Should we blame the fire,
or the doctor who allowed him to expire. Heck no!
Blame Canada!
Blame Canada!
With all their hockey hubaloo and that bitch Anne Murray too.
Blame Canada!
Shame on Canada!
The smut we must stop
The trash we must smash
Laughter and fun
must all be undone
We must blame them and cause a fuss
Before somebody thinks of blaming us!
So, please, stop bashing French Canadians solely on the language they speak. If you can find a witty insight about the war, please go for it. However, don't jump on the French bashing bandwagon. It's pretty apparent they can't defend themselves.
Because of the language they speak?
I'm afraid I was bashing Celine for her
a) Voice that sounds like a set of bagpipes being re-tuned, and
b) Her preferred style of music, which is normally heard either in Lifts(elevators to Colonials), or at Funerals.
Apart from that, she's OK, I suppose, in a French canadian sort of way.
I'm thinking of changing my name to:
Which would make you TMFKAJ?
Should be more TAFKAANKAAP, I think. :wink:
