"Standing on the waters, casting your bread

While the eyes of the idol in the iron head are glowing

Distant ships sail into the mist, you were born with a snake in both of your fists,

A hurricane blowin'."

They say her lips
Are sweeter than honey
But how can they know that
When no one ever tried

Her daddy's there
High on the mountain
And he protects her
With a gun and knife



One day
I'm going to
Climb that mountain
Fetch her to this valley
And she'll be my wife.

He's into marriage by capture. He must have fatasised when young about those drawings in comics of a caveman carrying a club and dragging a cavewoman along by the hair.

That's from before poets could entice them with sweeter charms.

Blimey- that's the best evidence you will ever see proving that Mathos and myself are not the same.

I'm totally illiterate in that vein. As he is in mine.

I don't think you need to resurrect that topic again Spendi.


Marriage by capture, a little like 'Seven Brides for Seven Brothers'


And what about you Spendi, are you the original bachelor boy, ugly features that can't pull, or as you have mentioned numerous times on these threads, celibate by choice?


You could be hiding a great deal of inert psychological problems here bud.


Problem being with inertia, once it releases, it causes mayhem.


The feral cat which appears to live on my property, (and I don't mind that one iota) was in the yard eating the dogs left-overs about 20 minutes since. I have tried for over two years now to make physical contact with it, it don't want to know though. I put my dog in kennels when I go away, the cat has no one to do that for him/her, so I buy it some tinned food and get a pal of mine to call round every day and feed it when I'm not in the UK. Some people I know think its a crazy course to take. I just know I would not enjoy being away the same if I thought the roughnecked monster was hungry. It might boil down to knowing what real hunger is, not a lot of people in the UK do. We are very fortunate to be in this country.

I went to Tesco today, (my wife is not so well) and did the weekly shopping. I was talking to a young lady behind me at the check-out (late 30's I'd say). She remarked on it being unusual for a man to be doing the shopping, it is certainly unusual for me to do it. I explained the position, she asked me if I had remembered the bread, milk, coffee and sugar. I'd forgotten the tea bags, she went and brought a pack over for me. I thought how nice it was of her. We carried on talking and she came up to me whilst I was putting the goods in the boot of the car.

She said, I don't know you, but I feel as if I do. I thought it was strange, if not eerie. I replied, I didn't know you before speaking to you in there, if I had, I would not have forgotten you.

She simply smiled and turned to walk off, then she turned and said, See you next week if your coming again.


I mentioned it to my wife, 'Thanks for telling me that when I'm like this' she said, 'Don't worry, I'll be doing the shopping next week.'


Isn't life peculiar.

I don't know.

If I had to do the shopping I don't think I would last long enough to come to a decision on a question like that.

But had I got myself into such an embarrassing situation as you describe I would not have let the lady down as you seem to have done.

When you were putting the goods in the boot of your car was the moment.

That was a plaintive begging you gormless plonker.

I like goig to the supermarket, gets me out of the house now I'm retired.
One of these days I might not go back home. Maybe I'll just stay there



THE CLASH LYRICS

"Lost In The Supermarket"

[Chorus]
I'm all lost in the supermarket
I can no longer shop happily
I came in here for that special offer
A guaranteed personality

I wasn't born so much as I fell out
Nobody seemed to notice me
We had a hedge back home in the suburbs
Over which I never could see

I heard the people who lived on the ceiling
Scream and fight most scarily
Hearing that noise was my first ever feeling
That's how it's been all around me

[Chorus]

I'm all tuned in, I see all the programmes
I save coupons from packets of tea
I've got my giant hit discoteque album
I empty a bottle and I feel a bit free

The kids in the halls and the pipes in the walls
Make me noises for company
Long distance callers make long distance calls
And the silence makes me lonely

[Chorus]

And it's not hear
It disappear
I'm all lost

Gee! I'm glad I never listened to The Clash. I need an injection of dejection like I need typhoid.

I dunno. After the Sex Pistols they all looked like mummie's little luvvies in a pantomime. The idea that any of them could be like Sid or JR is laughable. JR went to a posh Catholic school and there's no imitating that.

Oh yeah! Benny Hill should have done it eh? In a flowered frock with all the mannerisms.

Black leather 'hacking the urban jungle' kit is a tounge in cheek so far it might be caressing the lower colon.
