    Excellent, Jess! I can use you also....I need to send you samples of mysterious things that I see growing in my husband's hockey bag... If I recall correctly, Van Gogh was one of the artists at the time who integrated things into his paintings. Cigarette ash, skin, blood....perhaps bread crumbs?

    Mornin' all....Reporting for duty! I've been pacing around, unable to get my breakfast down....the true identity of Scott...Hmmm. This is troublesome, as I think of the past weeks and how my dad has seemed...well, different. Trying to...moderate...edit...control things. Correcting me on a medical point, criticising when I emoticize too much...And what...

    So many quotations have stayed with me over the years, and it's impossible to pick a favorite. The wittiest, I think, was by (who else?) my hero, Winston Churchill: Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.

    I second that swoon!! ...Nikki said "dosh"...

    Nikki, I must say that when we were in London I ventured into a Tesco's to get some food staples and it was mahhhhvelus. Better than the quickie stop shops we've got here. But two of the three times I stopped in at the big one near Trafalgar Square, at around three in the afternoon, there were several inebriated souls staggering down the aisles. We were...

    JESS! Superb! You must be in our band, The Badass Snow Poodles, and join us on our float in the NY parade. You must be quite a singer if you're managing in musicals, so we could head up the vocals. By musicals, do you mean what I hope you mean? Like, great ol' showtunes (think Showboat, Fiddler on the Roof, Porgy and Bess)? Or something more...modern...

    I Lurrve it, too! My kids watched it with me recently, and both were entranced, proving once again that they are truly bizarre.

    Poor ol' Vince...I'm certain he was so full of toxins, and gluten could well have been one of them. It's probably more brain-addling than lead is! Could it have been the brain fog of celiac disease that caused this great, tormented master to hack off his ear and send it off to his prostitute mistress? Perhaps the schizophrenic rages, the gorging on...

    Van Gogh also consumed his lead paints...hence the eventual reputation he assumed as village madman. Hmmm...Shot of absinthe, with a cadmium yellow chaser.... Susie, I want to see your Fauvist works! Please avatarize them, one after another! ...I said avatarize......geesh!
  10. elye
    I'll bring the absinthe to the parade. Canada remains one of those twelve countries that has quietly kept producing and selling the stuff. Fauves, you say? Have a look at Emily Carr's early work, or ANY of the Group of Seven's...What inspired those horrific totem faces? Those crazy trees and gardens? I hereby proclaim (with the Fair Queen Amanda's consent...

    Maybe......At least others noticed my lines squinching together, so it was not simply me hallucinating. Someone else type a long post like I did and see if it happens to them. I'm beginning to suspect it's a vendetta against me from the board, trying to get me to shorten things up (not the first time in my life such hints have been dropped....sigh...)

    "Tom and The Badass Snow Poodles appearing live at the Toronto Convention Centre"... That sounds great. At one time on here, while planning the first parade, we were talking about who can play what. Well, now we have the makings of a band, and we've got a GREAT name! Perhaps we can quickly arrange a song, climb up on one of the floats, and perform it in...

    Good morning, Crazy Brethren... New York Parade sounds fantastic to me. Gus, my dad and I will have to leave from here quite early, as the lineups to get across border are HEINOUS...Canuck shoppers cashing in. Who could my father become to speed things up, maybe play on the guards' sympathies, or subtly indimidate them? Perhaps his Central/South American...
  14. elye
    Peter, this is fantastic. I'm SO pleased you've joined us, and talk about doing things right--none of this jump-right-in, try-to-stay-afloat-and-catch-up nonsense. Peter is studying us, getting the history, perhaps laying the groundwork for a new direction in this madness...Your name means "rock", Peter, but I bet you can bring a lot more to us here than...

    300 bucks! Awesome, Susie....it's the dingos, I'm telling you... BTW, Nikki, if you're around at this hour (it's what.....almost 10 in the UK, so possibly), you have the BEST new avatar since Richard began photo-pimping!! SPLENDID!

    Mygawd...we've been circling through this vortex for a lot longer than I thought. I think this kind of thing commonly happens within vortexes--time bends, and perhaps even disappears completely. I have spent a moment on here, and the sun has set, the kids are suddenly home from school, Gus very badly needs out...an hour, not a moment. Guess it'll be ...

    Oh, Amanda, thank gawd you're back! There was the threat of mass anarchy, as we were searching for a repalacement for you in your royal duties in your absence. Somehow, Gus was the one. You wanna talk about the fall of an empire.. Gotta try to keep the honeymoon goin' forever...
  19. elye
    Ah, Peter....should be quite an adventure, wading through the madness of our plans from so many pages ago. Sit down, and grab an alcoholic drink... Susie, we really shouldn't put Annie under added stress. We'll forget the squirrels, and Gus can just be entertained with the smell of yeti. ...Ah, and the smell of The Hoff!! Man, that may just do in the...
  20. elye
    Well, I've just run this idea by Gus...see, he apparently looks pretty awesome in this crown, so I thought maybe he'd like to stand in while Amanda's away. He is a dog (not a cat), so he is happy to do absolutely anything you ask of him. So, he's game. He is also a wimpy breed, so he'll fit the role of Queen. he just wants to ensure that there will be...

    HEY!! We'll ditch the tiara as the official Silly Monarch Crown...I have the perfect thing!!!.....(check out the avatar....) Janet, this royal headdress, I promise, does NOT add an allusion of bulk to the face. It sure as hell can add some things when worn out in public, but chubbiness? Never! So, you must now reconsider....
  22. elye
    Yeah, Susie...I seem to recall you scrambling around that race on page 299... Someone could go and check...who had the last post on page 299? I cannot be bothered as I am certain it will not be me... Probably a VERY good thing, however...I would make a HEINOUS Queen!!
  23. elye
    Well....Methinks this kind of decision is up to our Queen, but she is unavailable to preside over us all right now. Unfortunately, I don't remember Queen Amanda proclaiming a second-in-command for her absence. Goodness, no governing monarch may destabilize Sillyville to the point where there is mass chaos. I move that we remedy this post haste...How about...

    Wow, what a troupe, Peter! Cats certainly fill a different void than dogs do, but I've always needed both in my life. It's quite an interesting home atmosphere with two tolerant cats and a big, accutely immature, goofball dog. Have you mixed your feline grouping with a dog presence? Can be wonderful, and...interesting... HEY!! This troupe would have...
  25. elye
    Gah..I took a photo of Gus in a pair of my red shoes that I KNOW would really sell, but he has the most disgusted look on his face....I simply cannot post it. He needs the gaunt, cocained look of the Parisian runway girls to sell anything, methinks. My BIL has run the Yukon Quest and the Ididerod a number of years, and had a team in the year the Power Poodles...
