CJ's most noticeable quality is her modesty. This must be very awkward for her. Therefore, I will spend half of this post talking about myself:

CJ was born in Germany
I was born in Germany

CJ joined A2K in 2004
I joined A2K in 2004

CJ loves to post photos of her daughter
I love to post photos of my daughter

CJ thinks Gus is great
I think.............................CJ is great

Yes, we Krauts have to stick together - no matter what! Laughing
That is very sweet wandel, thank you!

If your daughter ever makes it down to San Diego,
please tell her to stop by.

Waited outside in your tree for 3 hours...and nothing. I see how you roll.

I'm very fond of you too, as you know.
One of these days Piffka, we'll get together and drink
a good bottle of redwine, or two.

Fugleman? It had to be German, what else? Laughing

It's nice to see that this thread is still going. I will stop in periodically and post some inane comment to ensure the thread's survival.

Gus, you should be thankful. At least you aren't missing a colon.

You're right, Piffka! And not one word of explanation as of yet! Doesn't Gus realize that his unapologetic and cavalier attitude towards the proper rendering of the titles of threads is a direct reflection not only on himself, but on the entire community of A2K! This will not--CAN NOT--stand! I demand that Gus proffer a properly-worded apology and correction immediately!

Actually, I think gustav had intended to open a thread
about Calamity Jane, the original wild women of the west -
not me, who is only using the name as a pseudonym.

The period after the headline meant, there is nothing
more to come...

I was driving down the road and I noticed a pheasant in trouble. A car had hit the poor bird and one of its wings was broken. As I approached the poor bird struggled to escape, its healthy wing fluttering in a rapid fashion, the broken wing immobile, causing the bird to rotate in a comical fashion. I swerved to the right and managed to hit the bird head on, putting the poor thing out of its misery. Milliseconds before I hit the bird I thought back to my Calamity Jane thread and remembered with horror that I left a space between the y and the j.

I braked my truck, stopped, put it in reverse, and headed back to the dead bird. Getting out of my truck I examined the bird. Not a sign of life. I picked the beak off the pavement and headed home to correct my error on the Calamity Jane thread.

My blood ran cold when I realized, because of Craven De Kere's latest edict, I could no longer edit and my error was there forever, like soiled laundry flapping in the breeze for all to see.

I set the pheasant beak on my desk and gave it a little flick with my finger. I watched, amused, as the beak twirled in such a fashion as to appear to be a solid orange circle.

Oh my goodness, you killed the bird. Sad It's Cravens fault, he should change things back to the way they were. I get nightmares thinking of the mistakes I leave behind in the threads. Shocked Rolling Eyes

So theorethically, the pheasant is mine gustav.
I am willing to share however - how are we going to prepare
the pheasant? What's your recipe on it?
