11 Jul 07 - 09:13 AM (#2099715) Subject: BS: Poor Ol' Amos From: GUEST,The Giant Squid Did you see this? That's poor old Amos. Used to hang around off the North Island, tryin' to make it with the ladies, cadgin' a few drinks from his friends. Many's the night we'd sit around a swap lies; he'd tell about the boats he'd pulled under and the whales he'd fought and I'd keep the glasses filled. Then somebody'd start a song and we'd sing "Squid Jiggin' Ground" and all the old favorites. Poor ol' Amos. Gonna be CO-llected, DIS-ected, and put on DIS-play. |

11 Jul 07 - 09:48 AM (#2099750) Subject: RE: BS: Poor Ol' Amos From: beardedbruce Has the SPCS heard about this? Doesn't Amos ( the squid, not the Mudcat member*) deserve a decent burial and his remains treated with respect? * NOT to imply that the Member Amos does NOT deserve having his remains trested with respect, but I believe ( correct me if I am wrong) that he is still using them ( the remains, that is). |

11 Jul 07 - 10:18 AM (#2099783) Subject: RE: BS: Poor Ol' Amos From: Bee Poor critter. Cephalopods are one of the sad stories of evolution: great manipulative ability, fine eyesight, good brains - but with an unfortunate short lifespan, often related to their reproductive habits. They'll never live long enough to take over the world. |
