Wednesday Worry

I'm signed up on my local Freecycle group. For those who don't know of it, Freecycle is a mailing list in which you can offer items for free (as in you don't get paid for them) you no longer want/need; or ask for items you want/need. It's a useful way of recycling stuff that isn't so decrepit it's worth junking; and that you don't want to, or can't, sell.

Checking it today I noticed that some-one was offering hamster bits, and later on that the hamster bits were taken.

My first thought was "what sort of person offers bits of a hamster?"

My second thought was "what sort of person asks for bits of a hamster?"

My third thought was "both these people live in my area - maybe I should move!"




(and yes, in case anyone was really wondering, it was bits FOR a hamster, not OF a hamster. But the subject line was "Hamster bits" )

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That was my first reaction as well. What the heck would you do with pieces of a hamster

Hmm, I've been looking for something to replace the current amuse-bouche on the Chateau Pompette party menu. Good idea, VR. Here, have a venison snausage.

Cheers,
Marc

Oh Great! Now I've got Brian Blessed's performance in Flash Gordon stuck in my head, dancing to the sounds of Prince's 1999. I am going to have seriously weird dreams, I fear.

No, no, no. Young Frankenstein. As in this clip where he says "They're ALIIIIIVE!"



This is the right clip, right?
