Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Jeri Date: 07 Jan 08 - 11:58 AM It's 'Live Free or Die' Mary. It was started as a campaign by our founders against restrictive underwear, which they believed caused fatal gangrene of the personal parts. Many people aren't aware of this fact, but the 'tea' thrown into Boston Harbor was actually 'T' - a load of wooden thongs. George Washington wore one, and all his teeth fell out before he had it removed by his carpenter. Boy, did the media of the day ever get THAT story wrong! |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Morticia Date: 07 Jan 08 - 12:34 PM I hope Jimmy never gets to hear about this |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 07 Jan 08 - 12:44 PM Didn't realise the jimmy'T' was that old, I assume the thongs were his design and manufacture, Jeri? That explains the family dentistry business though, and the connection between the chopper and the cherry tree. Didn't he get splinters in his bum? Oh and incidentally, is there any tie in with the John Birch (Birch John), Society here? I need to know, because it may even explain Forrest Gump. Can you let me have a copy of the family tree? Giok |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 07 Jan 08 - 01:22 PM Oh...Live free or die. Same difference if you die free, I think. But if you die in jail you get freed unless they bury you in the penitentiary. Then you're still in jail. HMMMMMM Explain Forrest Gump? heh heh |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: jacqui.c Date: 08 Jan 08 - 07:16 AM Today Micca will be returning to his own home after his stay amongst the ice and snow of Maine. Last night Mary, Micca and I went out for dinner at a floating restaurant on Portland waterfront. The Cap'n was suffering with a headache brought on by his meds and didn't feel like joining us so he had to cook his own supper! We had a great meal and a very enjoyable evening. Here's looking forward to Micca's next visit............... |

Safe journeys Micca Dear, hope you're wearing the kilt so Security at the airport can enjoy the Frisking experience. Thanks to all who've looked after the hairy little fella! Hil |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Micca Date: 08 Jan 08 - 08:38 AM The pirouette" was due to them being SNOW boots and not ICE boots, hence the "Torville and Dean "number on the driveway which was a solid sheet of ice. I am packed and I hope, having breakfast at TJ Hookers with Tami and then taking the 12.30 coach to Logan and then my evening flight home, I will not leave the snow with any regrets at all, but the friends here in Maine, that is a different matter, Mary, and the other Maniacs, my sincere thanks to you all for the welcome and wonderful time I have had amongst you!!, You are such a bunch of Whats the word? Maineiacs!! I am already looking forward to my next visit. That is me and "the horse" |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: GUEST,LTS pretending to work Date: 08 Jan 08 - 08:46 AM Dammit Sins... we were hoping you'd managed to clean him up a bit. Still the hairy little fella's cat will be glad to see him and I shall be glad to relinquish responsibility. LTS |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: katlaughing Date: 08 Jan 08 - 10:58 AM Safe journey, Miccadarlin'. Sins, last night Letterman said after the "boring" debates, NH had changed its slogan from "Live free or die" to "just shoot us!" |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 08 Jan 08 - 01:25 PM LOL |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 08 Jan 08 - 01:28 PM I will shoot them if they elect Hillary! |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 08 Jan 08 - 04:43 PM Nominate, Giok not elect. That comes later. If Hillary runs I will have gnu find me a nice little home in Canada - it will be time to go. |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 08 Jan 08 - 04:56 PM Exterminate would be preferable. gnu is a diligent and experienced carer, you could do worse than move up there, he is also an enthusiastic cook. So if you move to Moncton, you will be nearby, and I know he delivers! Giok G |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Becca72 Date: 08 Jan 08 - 05:58 PM I'll be coming with you, Mary... |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: ranger1 Date: 08 Jan 08 - 06:42 PM I think we should just secede. As for Micca, he treated me to a lovely breakfast at Uncle Andy's and then I dropped him at the bus. Fortunately, I didn't drop him very hard, so he should be all in one piece. |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: katlaughing Date: 08 Jan 08 - 09:37 PM If Hilary getting nominated would make you leave the country, why didn't Bush? She can't be as bad as he's been! |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 09 Jan 08 - 03:46 AM Apparently he's home now. Can we stop asking where hi is? LTS |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 09 Jan 08 - 06:06 AM Heard somebody on the radio this morning, say that the the Republicans would be ecstatic whichever Democrat out of Obama and Clinton gets the nomination. She said that between the misogynists and the racially prejudiced, the Republicans would be a shoo in. Don't know how true this is, but if I were gnu, I'd be going into the real estate business, real soon! G |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 09 Jan 08 - 08:22 AM i don't know Liz. I will have to poll all those interested in Micca's whereabouts and get a concensus. It is an election year you know. Perhaps a caucus is in order. We will let you be a Super Delegate - you still get one vote but you don't have to be elected. He is in a new house, What if he goes to the grocery store and gets lost? We may need to keep this thread going forever. Secret ballot. All concerned PM me with your wishes. Or we can let Micca decide. He may be tired of being "watched'. |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 09 Jan 08 - 08:23 AM By the way - he PM'd me and he is home but has a cold. Maybe we should start a thread about his health... |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 09 Jan 08 - 08:36 AM That'll be man flu likely. G |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 09 Jan 08 - 09:45 AM So...one vote from Giok to continue this thread. Antone else? |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Tinker Date: 09 Jan 08 - 10:32 AM If ever a man needed watching .... I'd say we wait til he figures out the new computer hook ups and we can track him here again... |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 09 Jan 08 - 10:45 AM He does a really good line in the 'I'm only a helpless cuddly loveable wee man, please look after me' stakes, doesn't he? Micca mate, I don't know how you get away with it, but if you're giving lessons, put my name down for a session will you? Jealousy is a terrible thing isn't it ? Giok ¦¬] |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Becca72 Date: 09 Jan 08 - 11:02 AM Cuddly lessons from Micca and a coat like Kendall's and you'll be fighting 'em off with a stick, Giok. :-) |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: ranger1 Date: 09 Jan 08 - 11:03 AM I'm always concerned as to his whereabouts. One never knows, he might get mistaken for the Roaming Gnome and kidnapped by some obsessed fan... |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 09 Jan 08 - 12:04 PM Giok on the other hand... AHHH you're curte too sweetie. Would you like a thread of your own? The unbirthday thread seems to have disappeared. How about a thread on sheep? |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: TRUBRIT Date: 09 Jan 08 - 11:41 PM I LOVE the thread -- I vote for keeping it going...... |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 10 Jan 08 - 06:41 AM But going where, Deborah? Isn't tht the point? If Micca stands still, all is lost. Today at least he is going to work - that's a start. |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: jacqui.c Date: 10 Jan 08 - 08:35 AM And he's just confirmed that he has done me a real favour since he's been back. Tank you your Miccaness - you're definitely in my good books. |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: maeve Date: 10 Jan 08 - 09:28 AM I rather enjoy seeing the thread pop up out of the blue. "He's on the move again, is he?" says I. maeve |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 10 Jan 08 - 09:36 AM HEY! You, sir, are in big trouble! Bought me a box of chocolates and he ate them. All of them! Grumble... Didn't even leave me the crappy chewy caramel. Even Jason and Tami had the decency to leave me a chewy caramel. SINS, slinking away from the airborn S**t about to fly. And laughing out loud. |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: jacqui.c Date: 10 Jan 08 - 09:38 AM Mary - he was doing you a favour and helping with your diet - taking temptation away. You know it makes sense. |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: lady penelope Date: 10 Jan 08 - 10:05 AM Doing Mary a favour? I think not... I reckon his gnomeness is attempting to apply the well known phenomenom of "other people's chocolates have no calories" with regards to his diabetes...... |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 10 Jan 08 - 10:22 AM That's what we used to call a 'Native American Giver' Mary. Perhaps we should start another thread, entitled 'Where is the peripatetic diabetic?' G |
|
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Micca Date: 10 Jan 08 - 01:21 PM Mary, it is quite simple, I ate them A To remove temptation from your vicinity so they would not interfere wuith your efforts at dieting B and as a preventative measure to prevent them going bad. I therefore see my actions as both a Humanitarian issue (helping a friend with their will power, or in this case "Won't" power) and as a Humane destruction of potentially dangerous material. Also, you will notice , I left you some Lindt Chocolates on the table in the round tin (in case you are overcome with desire..... for chocolate) |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 13 Jan 08 - 10:32 AM I need some UKers to organize a search party. Apparently the moving boxes have created a maze of such proportions that he is trapped somewhere in his own home and can't get out. I told him not to light a signal fire but I am not sure that in his panic he might not just go ahead a try. S.O.S S. O. S. Dit DIT DIT DIT Dit |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 13 Jan 08 - 04:04 PM I'm not going back in there - the cat ate the trail of breadcrumbs I left (well, I think it was the cat) and it was traumatic to say the least. LTS |

Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Little Hawk Date: 13 Jan 08 - 04:06 PM Look, people, if you still can't find Micca after all this time...it's bloody well hopeless. Give it up, I say! ;-) |
