My furry friend is celebrating his son's acceptance in college, and I am celebrating my son's improvement.

Not nearly as hectic a day as yesterday <I actually got some work done today>
bunny..... are you familiar with squashes in Oz-land? I had a lime squash in St. Kitts and it was the most refreshing thing I can recall. We also had them in Belize, so it might be a Caribbean thing, but they are fabulous!
If you don't have lime squash, then maybe another glass of white wine will be a nice cap to today.
I notice that you're tired of summer. How I DREAM of summer in the end of February. While, I do blame those bug worriers for our current situation (no names mentioned), I am genuinely looking forward to a gathering of some fun A2Kers in the next 24 hours.
Thanks for the respite, it's greatly appreciated.
You're currently travelling? You're going to a gathering? Whaaaaa........????!!!!!!
And bugger summer......I NEVER have reasonable summer clothes! NEVER!!! It's because I love stuff for cooler days a lot more.....

For you, dearie, anything.
Now...just demolish intelligent design as a "science" for me in a nutshell, will you?

Jesus I'd love a glass of wine and a quaalude.
I'd be ever so quiet and agreeable, and wouldn't bother with the cucumber sandwiches or make crude remarks.
Are quaaludes anything like mandrax? Mandrax I remember.

Here you go......now, what are you gonna converse about?

What we know as squash is probably not the same as you. Lemon sqash is quite popular the commercial varieties produced by soft drink companies consists of sweetened carbonated water and an artificial lemon flavouring along with variouse additives as with most commercially produced foodstuffs.
similar, but yours sounds bottled, and probably too sweet.
... we arrived at our hotel after 14 hours of travel. The porter took one look at our exhausted faces and said he'd bring us some dinner. Before dinner arrived, we heard a knock at the door and the porter handed us two glasses of freshly prepared lime squash. Fresh lime juice, powdered sugar (not too much), club soda and cracked ice.... it was perfect! Dinner arrived a short time later - grilled pork chops that tasted like pork chops (Americans will probably understand), side dishes and two more lime squashes. Ahhhhhhh, the perfect beginning of a fabulous trip.
Well, we have real limes here...or the joys of Bickford's Lime Juice Cordial......(which now comes in a non sugared form, too).....
We also still get real meat, and increasingly organic free range stuff is available...I had some guilt free ham over christmas, which was wonderful....and one knew the pig had had a decent rooty scampering about and having pig style fun sort of life...and was killed on the premises, not driven to an abbatoir.
