Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: HRH ted of hull Date: 17 Aug 04 - 10:11 AM There have been so many Kerry/gay threads that I am beginning to miss the days of endless threads on Iraq, so I have dug an old one up. Enjoy! |

Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Sweetfia Date: 16 Jun 04 - 04:21 AM John! I am ashamed of you...don't you dare bash any Zebra's over the head with a big stick! |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 15 Jun 04 - 09:31 PM Never thought of rubbin' myself with sardines. You Catters are one very strange breed. However, if I did, do you suppose it might attract Little Hawk's goat? Just askin'. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 15 Jun 04 - 04:18 PM They'll drive you to groanin, and burpin' and belchin'; You'll wish you had never got cod liver flukes. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rapparee Date: 15 Jun 04 - 02:57 PM Sardines and whisky and old roadkill rollin' They'll drive you to nausea, they'll drive to puke. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rapparee Date: 15 Jun 04 - 02:38 PM Whoa! Wait a minute! If I rub myself with sardines or roadkill or...and go hunting...hey folks, there are mountain lions in them there hills! Really! And black bears! I could get hurt or worse! |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Sttaw Legend Date: 15 Jun 04 - 11:28 AM Whisky loved sardines but struggled to get them out of the tin |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Sttaw Legend Date: 15 Jun 04 - 11:01 AM I once had a cat called Whisky, at night I stood at the door calling for Whisky....the rest is history |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Once Famous Date: 15 Jun 04 - 10:25 AM Brucie You are probably right about the sardines. Montreal should have bragging rights on this. Now if you want to talk about an Italian beef sandwich........or do I have to first describe what this very famous culinary delight is? |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: el ted Date: 15 Jun 04 - 10:07 AM If you stink of fish jOhn darling, the cats will be hunting you. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 15 Jun 04 - 10:00 AM OK, we could be onto something here guys and gals. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 15 Jun 04 - 09:27 AM I've just covered myself in sardine juice, now i am going hunting I am going hunting for zebras and lions, down Marlborough Avenue, i got no guns, but i will take a big stick, to bash them on the head with. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Amos Date: 15 Jun 04 - 09:13 AM El Ted: Sensitive sniffers. A |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: el ted Date: 15 Jun 04 - 09:13 AM Try it Mr Rapaire. I'm sure it will work. Why not save yourself the trouble of tracking down roadkill, and simply rub yourself all over with a couple of tins of sardines? |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rapparee Date: 15 Jun 04 - 09:10 AM So, I'd have better luck hunting if I rolled in something that was long dead? I'm going to suggest this to all the hunters I know: collection roadkill and roll in it before going afield for the purpose of taking game. Wow. I'll be famous. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: s6k Date: 15 Jun 04 - 08:51 AM it wasnt me |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Sweetfia Date: 15 Jun 04 - 07:01 AM Yeah, then when it comes home smelling something awful it tries to sit on your lap...so you've got this huge great smelly thing trying to lick ya face...aww, bless! |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: el ted Date: 15 Jun 04 - 04:08 AM Brucie, My beloved's dog is a lurcher, and whenever we take on the moors it will roll in the first dead animal it finds. It's a hunting reflex, they do it to mask their smell to other animals. Once the bugger has rolled in a dead sheep it then goes on to happily splatter rabbits all over the place! |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: el ted Date: 15 Jun 04 - 04:04 AM Amos, The plot thickens!! How would a cat know it needs Vitamin A? How does it know that fish are salty? |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rapparee Date: 14 Jun 04 - 10:19 PM Are the Montreal Sardines some baseball team or something? |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 14 Jun 04 - 08:36 PM Hey, Martin. I bet ya Montreal sardines are better than Chicago sardines. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 14 Jun 04 - 06:28 PM I once had a dog that really liked fish. He didn't care to eat it, but he loved to roll in it. Strangest damn thing, because he knew when he did that he ended up in the bath, and he hated the bath. It was a regular Keystone Cops fiasco when Ginger found a dead fish. Jaysus, talk about bad news on a warm day. And, that dog would try to 'get affectionate' with anything that had fur--and a few things that didn't. Musta thought the fish oils made his coat look attractive to other furry creatures. Heck, maybe it was his way of getting cats to come closer. Beats me. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Amos Date: 14 Jun 04 - 04:02 PM Their appetite may not have anything to do with the fishness of them, but rather for the vitamin A, or the natural oils, or the saltiness, for example. A |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 14 Jun 04 - 03:37 PM THAT is a darn good question. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: el ted Date: 14 Jun 04 - 09:05 AM How come cats like fish so much? I mean, the little buggers don't like getting wet do they? so how did they develope a taste for something they would never catch in the wild? |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rapparee Date: 14 Jun 04 - 08:51 AM Well, actually, sardines aren't really fish. They look like fish, but they were genetically engineered from peas and slimy salamanders as a WPA project back in the 1930s. The proto-sardines are put into the cans as larvae, the equivalent to human teenagers. They would do what teenagers do, and while the can was in shipment to the store it would be filled with the larvae's offspring. But the contraceptive linings have cut way back on the number of offspring per can. Bet none of you knew this before, did ya? Sardines as fish...humf. Who'd go fishing for some puny little thing like that, anyway? |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 14 Jun 04 - 08:38 AM Does anyone else remember when there were about 20 sardines to the can? Now there's four. What's that about? Y2K, Bruce, Y2K. There was a huge run on sardine stocks when everyone thought the world was going to stop working on Jan.1, 2000. All the 20-to-a-can sardines got bought up and all that was left was the 4-to-a-can size. Nobody has fished for sardines since 1999 so the 4-to-a-can size is all you can find nowadays. Nobody really eats the damned things anyway. They only buy them for emergencies like hurricanes. Then, when the all-clear signal is given, the sardines get fed to cats. Cats don't care how many fish are in the can. When enough 4-to-a-can sardines have been eaten by cats someone will send a boat out to catch some more sardines and the 20-to-a-can size will be available until the next disaster impends. Th' other Bruce |

Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: el ted Date: 14 Jun 04 - 03:39 AM Agreed. Sardines are way too bony, and they stink! I have a bottle of anchovies lurking in my kitchen at the moment, they are pleasant. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 14 Jun 04 - 03:29 AM I prefer mackerel, 59p a tin from coop. Eat Fish, its good for you. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: el ted Date: 14 Jun 04 - 03:25 AM Iraq to sardines in 30 posts. Well done everybody! |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 14 Jun 04 - 02:17 AM Oh. The sardines aren't gettin' any, so neither are we, is that it? |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rapparee Date: 13 Jun 04 - 06:03 PM Brucie, the linings of the sardine cans now exude a contraceptive chemical. They didn't useta. You're lucky if you get four these days. |
Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Peace Date: 13 Jun 04 - 02:53 PM I can't stand it when the little ring on top of the sardine can snaps off. That has got nothin' to do with the country about which this is a free thread--or something like that. So, I keep plyers handy just in case. Does anyone else remember when there were about 20 sardines to the can? Now there's four. What's that about? |

Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: CarolC Date: 12 Jun 04 - 05:08 PM Martin, have you also noticed that the majority of threads about Iraq are also CarolC free threads? I'm guessing you haven't, but if so, I'm not at all surprised. |

Subject: RE: BS: Iraq Free Thread From: Rapparee Date: 11 Jun 04 - 01:45 PM Well, try: Twain-Tritt Twitty Trenton Tribute Tour. That's the one that Shana Twain and Travis Tritt were going to do in New Jersey to honor the late Conway Twitty. It didn't get off the ground, because no one could ask for Twain-Tritt Twitty Trenton Tribute Tour tickets. |
