nice things come in small parcels
and many big potatoes are rotten in the middle.
Grandma taught me that.

Zen-Grandmothers

Mine on the other hand gets drunk and abuses the methodist priest who lives opposite her.

She makes me proud.

My dead-hard nana
has just died. She could knock men out with one punch. She was like Bender from Futurama. I wish I was like her. Maybe one day I could be... *stares into space and orders a Guinness*

I can't wait to be old... you get to be crazy and no one can stop you.

no-one stopped her when she was younger either.
She was nails.

I've never read it
but I remember reading the first one, the Iron Man, when I was a kid.

The Iron man was ace
That one looks preposterous

Ahh-suum!
I get mormons into trouble with their elders on buses, simply by eating an apple and singing along to Fleetwood Mac.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 15:47, Reply)

Do you
specifically search out mormons on buses? Are they easy to spot?
(Zapiola zip-zap-zop, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 15:48, Reply)

They have a badge
with their name, their 'rank' and 'Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints' under that.
Is that mormons? Ish?

And I don't seek them out. They're just handed to me on a plate. On a bus.

I only
know one mormon, and he stopped being a mormon when he discovered alcohol, sex, and drugs, in that approximate order.

you don't
know Donnie Osmond. So stop lying.

Ha
No I don't know Donny Osmond... but I do know a fallen mormon
