Okay, so I'm stuck here while my car is at the shop, and I decide to experiment with uploading files, then became distracted by this site... Since there are multiple jpgs that are already accessible via a link here's the address: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/cloningwrong.html

What I can't understand is how you got my photo -- I haven't posted it in the member thread! (But you'll have to guess which one is me, hehe.) :smile:
 
Let's see...I'm trying to figure out which pic it might be (well, and if I'm doin' this right...)

I remember from high school days a Playboy issue had a similar feature, but drawn by an artist. There were quite a few of them: a cross of a bee and an eagle called the Beagle; the Vamoose, a flying bloodsucking elk; and I believe that the Armadildo should be self-explanatory. :biggrin:

And I thought "Armadildo" was a Southwestern thing...but ya-all know about it up Canada way, aye?

As I said, it was a Playboy (based in Chicago). I have no idea where the artist came from, though.

Incidentally, "A" is spelled 'eh'; 'aye' is pronounced "I". :wink:

Yeh, but down in these parts, 'eh' is pronounced, well not as 'aye' so for those who may not know that, well I'm hooked on phonics... :smile:

I bet you're one of those people that I'd be totally incapable of understanding if I heard you speak. Sort of like Jeff Foxworthy with a lisp. :biggrin: (In fact, that last post gave me a bit of trouble. Maybe it's spilling over into your writing?) :-p

Arizona has been a transient state (not to be confused with transvestite) so there isn't a southern or Texan accent here--Arizona is more west coast. As for me personally, if I talk with a lisp, the guys don't seem to mind. :-p :confused:
