Try a nice bottle of Guinness and a Pukka pie. You'll soon feel better Mr Corelis.

Yeah but we all need to wait while the announcer reads the bio piece.............

My name is Jon Corelis and in 2005 a rhinoceros chased me across the African grasslands. Cornering me in an elephant graveyard, he attacked and ripped my bag off. A pack of hyenas ripped off my dick as well and I was left to be eaten by vultures. Fortunately I was rescued by a great white hunter who took me to a local witch doctor who was able to fasion me a new penis from a roll of aardvark jerky as well as new nuts from two nuts. I am now on a world tour telling of my journey and recovery from the attack. Sadly, the only lingering condition seems to be a raging case of the shits which hits me every 9 minutes.

(Insert commercial break here while all the Jon Corelis' take a shit)

Why are you appalled, Jon? It all sounds pretty good to me. You majored in classical languages and managed to get a job. How many people can claim that?

And now you're in Northeastern Wisconsin. Are you a Packer fan?

You're in the north woods. Why don't you join the Sasquatch thread and get my tips for seeing wildlife?

Looking at some of the above replies, I seem to be turning into a myth before my eyes. Maybe I will turn into a Sasquatch.

Here in Northern Wisconsin there are two predominant religions: football and hunting. Ever the stranger, I don't subscribe to either.

I don't know if there have been Sasquatch (or similar creature) sightings in our woods. I could ask some hunting acquaintances.

I think perhaps you'd better not. You could ask them about hodags, however.   

Can I ask you a question? If you were a classics major, how come you're not posting to the Latin pronunciation thread? True Mudcatters can hardly keep themselves away from discussions of language. Somebody even uses the word 'ablative' (whatever that may be) on that thread.

I've always like the pluperfect. I've never figured out what it means, but I love the word.

I haven't been able to keep up with all the traffic here, but I will look at the Latin thread if I can find it.

Pluperfect in grammar means the perfect viewed as being in the past, e.g. perfect "Now I have seen" (action completed at present moment) becomes pluperfect "by then I had seen" (action completed at some past moment.)

Ablative is the name of a case, but it would take a tedious explanation to explain what that means.

It is entirely unclear, aside from your statement of emotional condition, what it is that outraged you so, Jon.

As a writer, surely you know the perils of ambiguity and obscurity in your declarations; they bring about failure of communication.

Scratching your nuts will not help this condition. Ignore Spaw's suggestions. He has a disorder.

Better to get outraged and appalled first. Then when something outrageous and appalling happens, you won't get upset.

Actually 'M' I don't myself eat Pukka Pies, but I do love the name! I mostly make my own pies, as I know what goes in them. I live in terror of finding a fingernail or a boogie in a bought one!!

Do you make your own aardvark jerky as well. I think that Jon "Pissed-Off Sans Dick" Corelis might be interested in something a bit larger than what the witch doctor gave him..........Doubt if he needs a Pukka Pie as he already has a raging case of the shits......................

Aardvark jerky? Whatever is jerky??? Sounds a bit rude to me!

Think "meat flavored strips of leather".......Never thought of it as rude before, but you have a point.

I always maintained they were liquorice, but my old dad wouldn't budge and tried to convince us girls Charlie actually ate the real leather.
