Subject: RE: An Irish Tale From: Matthew B. Date: 04 Jul 99 - 10:17 PM But who cares about fish wen there's a perfectly healthy cow right here. Anyone for a barbecue? With a shudder of her udders, she dashed (as much as any cow could dash) behind a groupf of vegetarian, we-are-the-world folkies. "Fear not, Bovine Babe, we'll save you" they cried, when to everyone's astonishment, out from the crowd came... |

Subject: RE: An Irish Tale From: Alan of Australia Date: 05 Jul 99 - 05:31 AM We've been condemned to bear this punishment for all eternity. When swords were turned into ploughshares and guns into musical instruments, alas, accordians remained accordians. Even worse, we are forced to associate with a banjo player." The faery replied, "Faer enough, let the punishment fit the crime." |
Subject: RE: An Irish Tale From: Banjer Date: 05 Jul 99 - 06:32 AM ....Whilst the banjo player, having recently crossed and beginning his just rewards thought to himself....'If I had known HELL was gonna be like this I would have lived my life much differently!' |
Subject: RE: An Irish Tale From: bseed(charleskratz) Date: 05 Jul 99 - 04:30 PM "There are benefits to being a banjo player in hell," he mused. "At least I get to be one of the tormenters, not of the tormented." Little did he realize that neither lambskin nor fibreskin could withstand the fires of perdition... seed |

Oh, yes, those fires wouldn't bother him a bit. "Granfer! Did the banjo player really meet the Divil and go to hell?", little Bridgett asked. "Sure and tis' me own granfer was 'im!", replied her grandfather. "An', what about me, Granfer", cried Colin, "Shall I go to hell since I'm learnin' the banjo, too? Is this banjo yer granfer's?" "Ah, me boyo", the Grandfather began, "Anither story is wotch'er askin' for is it? Well and good, here ya go, 'tis time fer bed and all. A wee bit more surely won't bring the divil down amangst us this night. Settle in now and I'll tell ya anither!" |

Subject: RE: An Irish Tale From: alison Date: 07 Jul 99 - 09:59 AM Just then the leprechaun woke up and said "I've had a really strange dream", he remembered the line from a really bizarre episode of Dallas, which wiped out an entire series.... when he awoke.. he found himself back in that lushious green valley.. which now was devoid of blue clicky things, and concentrating on the story in hand **grin** As his eyes adjusted to the dawn he saw the giant Michea/l Mo/r kicking the last of the banjo players through the middle of the two pillars where they disappeared, (don't you wish you could do that at folk clubs.... NOI) Not far away he noticed the little faery, she was sitting alone. As he looked, he saw to his surprise that she was crying. Large tears flowed down her cheeks. Bodhran asked gently "Why do you weep fair one?" She looked at him with those big hazel eyes and said....... |
