with her.
Sorry to post to both lists but I don't know which she subscribes to.

Hi David and everyone
ow - that hurts my head! Weird! It works if you turn your left foot
clockwise and write a reverse 6 in the air with the left hand (that is,
you can't do that either without the foot switching direction).

Hi everyone
I have been disoriented enough after shopping to forget where my car is,
but here's another twist:
In the days when every guy around here drove a pickup truck, one got used
to recognizing them by little details - the trim, the style of canopy (or
lack of one), something on the antenna

Your foot will change direction and there's nothing you can do about it!

Sorry David, but there is always the exception to the rule, and you have just
met it! Me. I do wobble a bit, but I do not change directions.
I assume it may have something to do with the way my brain is
I was told about a woman who had her own way of solving the "now where did I
park?" syndrome - she kept a toilet plunger in her car, and when she parked,
she put it out on top of the car. Whatever works!

I bought a T-shirt last week in the Hawkshead shop in Edinburgh. They gave
me a free gift with it - a Christmas pudding. I can't help looking this
gift horse in the mouth - I'm sure it was left over from last Christmas.
But it's 'best before' the year 2006, so I'm not complaining!

Hmmm. I don't doubt that the level is dropping. But

Dear Lynn,
Few of us have lace making supplies in our towns/cities. Our suppliers
world-wide will send catalogues, most have web sites, many take credit cards,
all take checks or International money orders, and supplies are only a phone
call or a click away. Don't dispair. Clarksburg is a wonder
It is easy to recognize our generic blue stationwagon by the little doggie
nose prints on the front window and the big doggie smudgie prints on the
back windows, except of course on the day the car gets washed.

Grammatically, I've got my choice of underlining "automatically", saying

Many years ago, I lived in Dartmouth and took the ferry to Halifax to work
every day. One day as I was half way up the ramp for the ferry back to
Dartmouth, it struck me that a car I had passed in the carpark looked
familiar. Of course it did, it was mine, I forgot that I had driven to work

Fabulous idea Noelene, it would be great to see all your poems.
