I hope you like Tilapia, mushrooms, tomatoes, and yeast-cakes.

No tofuburgers?

[null and void]

NO tofuburgers!

This is a class establishment!

[NoCmpromiz]

This is a class establishment!

Ok...

Then.. why are we here?

I don't have on my "proper attire required" disguise...

[NicknamedBob]

"This is a class establishment!"

Where'd ya get that notion?

We've got beer, our own distillery, a dwindling supply of barefoot wine, and kudzu.

Anything we need, we have to make for ourselves, and we haven't seen a fresh magazine for years.

This place is like a time-warp barber-shop. (With a big back room!)

Would you join any club that would admit you?

[null and void]

Nearly out of whine?

[NicknamedBob]

"Would you join any club that would admit you?"

Not any, no. I do have standards, you know.

There has to be a reading room, at least.

[NoCmpromiz]

Now you did it, you said time-warp again...

[NicknamedBob]

"Now you did it, you said time-warp again..."

By odd coincidence, ... maybe ... I wrote this time travel poem exactly six years ago.

Doo doo do doo. (Twilight Zone music)

Time Travel

Well, Otto had an attitude -- the world owed him a living,
His every act was take, take, take. He was so un for giving.
He made his phone calls all collect, his postage went out due,
And if you dropped a hat on him, you knew that he would sue.

All in his life was backward. Contention made him thrive.
But all who knew him wondered why he even was alive.
His constant usurpations, his grabbing, stingy ways,
One wondered how he dealt with such a gift of endless days.

The answer was, he felt it wrong that time be wasted so.
Much better that control was used, to interrupt the flow.
And so he made a time machine, to garner all he could,
He got the theory right enough; designing, not so good.

He ended going sideways, through shifting constant days,
Of sun just peeking up above a distant morning haze,
And people frozen in their tracks, but changing even so,
Before long he had lost his way, and knew not where to go.

Alas, he'd traveled much too far, to find his way again,
He journeyed in a circle then, of ever-widening spin,
The classic searching pattern, of fable and of rhyme,
But he remains a lost soul yet. No one would give him time.

Thank you!

[Silentgypsy]

Oh, that was good!

[NicknamedBob]

I appreciate your saying that.

Getting away from depleted shuttle reaction tanks, Tomato Hornworms, tofuburgers, eating locusts, and time-wa, er, you know, I have a question for our over the pond person...

Hey Moose, is there something in the water over there up around Newcastle? I ask because of THIS...

Seems to me that if teaching is unnecessary, so are teachers. Wonder how the NEA will take to that. Wonder if it's cheaper to replace teachers with smortphomes. ;-)

404 document not found.

What happened?
Newcastle is a never ending source of wonderment, and an unintelligible dialect.

[NoCmpromiz]

Does FR block you from linking to other threads? Thought I had done that before. I'll try again:

Professor says kids no longer need to learn spelling and grammar because of smartphones

[NoCmpromiz]

I note the link that did not work somehow ended up with a backslash in it the the DNS server didn’t like..

[moose07]

That kind of BS has been peddled over ‘ere for the last 30 years.
It’s progressive ,you know.
The Conservatives are now talking about re-introducing Spelling and Grammar to the State school system, so this spanner is pushing the Leftist agenda to made a name for himself.
Yes, he is just fitting to the Education system like another left-hand glove.

[moose07]

The trouble with backslash is it makes your shoes wet.
Sorry

[NoCmpromiz]

makes your shoes wet.

Isn't that what you get when you don't stand close enough to the urinal?

[moose07]

That is what ‘Backslash’ is slang for.
The Internet caused much mirth when they began reading out web addresses on the TV.
