[turbo]

Thanks, again, Greg! Its (ANOTHER!) rainy day here, chat is a nice way to spend some time. So far, I can only chat with myself - maybe Father's Day will dampen participation a bit.

 

[Redbelly98]

FYI, chat is still open ... come join in the fun!

 

[Hootenanny]

Hmm ... it seems that Greg's forgotten to turn off the chat

 

[Astronuc]

Still open.

But I have to work.

 

[negitron]

Huh. STILL on. And no one to talk to .

 

[turbo]

Yep! I dropped in a while back, out of curiosity. Kinda echo-y in there.

 

[Astronuc]

Overtime!

 

[turbo]

Still open, with a small, but select cadre of chatters. ;-)

 

[Borek]

Still open. I dropped, said 'Hello Borek' and 'gotta go'. Noone replied.

 

[Lisa!]

shhh...don't tell him about that...

 

[turbo]

shhh...don't tell him about that...

Can you visit tonight? I'll hang around. I appreciate Greg's leaving PF chat open during this time. Intentional or not, it's nice to be able to talk to folks in the ME.

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

I know all about this sillys

 

[negitron]

Big meanie turned it off.

 

[turbo]

Big meanie turned it off.

Big meanie bought the bandwidth and storage and took a chance on US.

Be really thankful for what we've got.

 

[negitron]

Yeah, I'm not really mad. Thanks, though.

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

chat is now open!

[Evo]

YAY! Thank you master!

 

[negitron]

Still open and I am alone. Entertain me, dammit!

 

[Pengwuino]

No, you entertain ME!

 

[turbo]

Darn Penguino! Left Chat just as I logged on!

 

[negitron]

Open again!

 

[Evo]

Bad negitron!

Yes, Greg opened it, and I was supposed to announce it.

Get out yer GOOBF card 'cause you're going to need it now!

Chat hours are Sunday from 10AM to 4Pm. Anything before or after that is at Greg's discretion.

 

[Pengwuino]

I'm in chat, FEAR THE PENGUIN!

 

[Redbelly98]

I'm in chat, FEAR THE PENGUIN!

Thanks for your contribution Pengwuino

​

 

[negitron]

Alright, who left the danged door open? All the riffraff (i.e., me) are getting in!

 

[Pengwuino]

I have taken over the chat, do not disturb me.

 

[Evo]

Thanks for your contribution Pengwuino

​

I would like to thank Redbelly for the magnificent, improptu Peqwuino roast. It was a wonderful, tender, moist, bonding experience.

 

[Pengwuino]

Evo tried to hook me up too but I was shot down... quite easily since I can't fly.

Roast was OK, but please, next time - degut whatever you put on grill

 

[Redbelly98]

I propose a new rule: only flightless birds are to be roasted.

Seems like a no-brainer to me. But given half a chance, there are those who would roast flying birds. Nature's most wondrous creation must be protected!

 

[Astronuc]

Penguins flightless?! They fly underwater.

Just stick Pengwuino in the ice box and he'll feel right at home.


Was that "Fear the penguin", or "Free the penguin" or "Feed the penguin"?

 

[Evo]

I think that was the problem, he was gutted (innards removed), but then someone degutted (or re-gutted) him and his innards were stuffed back inside.

Well, if you hadn't regained consciousness right at the end... I should've known that a redbelley would be able to peck itself free. That was some impressive pecking. Although that was a valiant attempt by christina at the end. If only we'd had the titanium net...

 

[Borek]

Covering your tail feathers, 'pecker?

Gut, gutted... When a house burns up, it burns down.

Not that Polish is easier.

He was reverse-engineered?!

...and when an alarm goes off, it actually turns on.... Who wrote these rules, anyway?

 

[Borek]

1) The bandage was wound around the wound.

2) The farm was used to produce produce.

3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.

4) We must polish the Polish furniture.

5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.

6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.

7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to
present the present.

8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.

9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.

10) I did not object to the object.

11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.

12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.

13) They were too close to the door to close it.

14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.

15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.

16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.

17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail.

18) After a number of injections my jaw got number.

19) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.

20) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.

21) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?

There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger. Nor is there any apple or pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England and French fries weren't invented in France.
Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?
If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth?
One goose, two geese. So one moose, two meese? One index, two indices?
Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend.
If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?
If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?
Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane.
In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital?
Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?
You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.
Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"?

 

[Pengwuino]

It's still alive! GO team chat!

 

[Borek]

lol, I have just checked - and I was there sitting alone, all rooms just for me

 

[turbo]

All alone, for now. I have left the sound up so I can tell if someone else checks in.

 

[turbo]

Chat is open, but there's just Penguino and myself there, and he's not responding. Gotta poke him with a stick...

 

[turbo]

Oops! Just figured out that it's Saturday. Maybe tomorrow someone will show up.

 

[negitron]

Or maybe someone will show up today but there won't be anyone else in there. *grumblegrumble*

Got 3 chatters, currently

 

[Pengwuino]

I was in chat yesterday and I dispersed penguin poop on the door.

 

[Redbelly98]

I was just in chat. Pengwuino is there and sound asleep, in case anybody is hungry.

Ahaha...let's put mascara and lipstick on him!

Paint his toenails and sew up the fly on his tighty-whities.

 

[turbo]

Chat is back!
