ALL dogs can count. Like the story goes: Try putting 3 treats in your pocket and giving your dog only 2 of them . . .

What was the question? Can Oprah count? Does it matter? Can't she afford to hire someone to count for her?

I too, try to avoid all shopping areas on the weekends, especially Saturdays. Not only because of the occasional murderous boyfriend that might appear to defend his girlfriend's status in the checkout line, but mostly the shums you mentioned. Shums and shumettes everywhere and no parental units keeping the little heathens under control. We could only wish the world was "going to the dogs" rather than being taken over by THEM.

I often go late on Saturday afternoons, on days when there's a rugby international, especially one involving Wales. (Important football match days are also good.)
The store is generally nearly empty. All the chavs go earlier, in order to stock up on beer and snacks, so I can do my shopping in perfect peace.

Don't you think that's a good idea?
(She said, hastily adding a question.)

That's a brilliant idea - why didn't I think of that (aside from not having the foggiest when these things occur, and not living in area that seems to have a a large amount of sports fanatics)?

Would screaming mimi girls, about 7 to 11 years old, yelling at the top of their lungs in yet unbroken voices for no apparent reason, in our courtyard, be classified as shums?

Is there anything else they could be classified as? Incidentally, should SHUMS be subject to extraordinary rendition? Or should we show our humane side and allow them free, automatic entry to the next Big Brother show? (Exit? now that's another matter....)

well i had to look up "extraordinary rendition" but i would have to say that either one of those options seems reasonable to me. wouldn't allowing them to exit be *more* inhumane (to the rest of the population) ?

For some reason I was thinking about trebuchets and The SHUMS: Targets? Projectiles? Transport media? Cheerleaders? Decorations? Lunch? Does any of this make any sense?
