230.0. "Where is Everyone?" by COMET::LINDBERG () Thu Jun 23 1994 02:57

    Hello everyone!!!!!!
    
    Is anyone out there?
    
    Whatever happened to being able to meet anyone, or even meeting someone
    nice without having to deal with the only three places people meet are:
    
    Bars
    Church
    Friends
    
    If there is anyone out there who enjoy the simple things in life and is
    seeking a friend to just bum around with who would enjoy something as
    spontaneous as driving up into the mountains for an all day picnic, be
    sure to respond or even mail me sometime..................
    
                                            John

    Hi There People,
    
    Just a short note to let you know that I exist.  Stewarty the name and
    fun is my game.  From a beautiful part of the world called Bonnie
    Scotland (anyone heard of it?)  As for Raberto, he really does need to
    work on that English, we've only been trying to get him to speak fluent
    english/scottish for about 10 years....his spelling is pretty bad as
    well, but however I must say what a guy he is..you's would die to meet
    him.  Anyway, back to me, I'm located at the lovely South Queensferry
    plant situated outside Edinburgh and at the waters edge of the Firth of
    Forth.  A short distance away many tourist locations can be visited,
    ie..Loch Lomand, Glencoe, Loch Ness (the home of the monster)..... and
    not far down the road from the plant is the hoose that Raberto lives
    in, you must call us up if and when you visit Scotland...... the home
    of Rabbie Burns...anyway one know of him?  I'll give you's a clue he
    was based in a Small village in Ayrshire called Mauchline and travelled
    between Ayr and Alloway...   give me your thoughts!!!
    
    Stewarty.

Horace

Much to his Mum and Dad's dismay
Horace ate himself one day.
He didn't stop to say his grace,
He just sat down and ate his face.
"We can't have this!" his Dad declared,
"If that lad's ate, he should have shared."
But even as he spoke they saw
Horace eating more and more:
First his legs and then his thighs,
His arms, his nose, his hair, his eyes...
"Stop him someone!" Mother cried
"Those eyeballs would be better fried!"
But all too late, for they were gone,
And he had started on his dong...
"Oh! Foolish child!" the father mourns
"You could have deep-fried that with prawns,
Some parsley and some tartar sauce..."
But H. was on his second course:
His liver and his lights and lung,
His ears, his neck, his chin, his tongue;
"To think I raised him from the cot
And now he's going to scoff the lot!"
His Mother cried: "What shall we do?
What's left won't even make a stew..."
And as she wept, her son was seen
To eat his head, his heart, his spleen.
And there he lay: a boy no more,
Just a stomach, on the floor...
None the less, since it was his
They ate it -- that's what haggis is.*

    Re .23
    
    Although as a mod I may be guilty of slightly neglecting my duty, I've
    decided to let the preceding note under the wire, even although it
    refers to Horace eating his dong ..not that li'l ol' virginal me would
    ever know what meant.. hehe.
    
    Having read the whole ditty through, I think that the dong bit is only
    a small skerrick of what is a most humourous piece in the overall
    sense, in which case, I think we're all mature enough to handle the
    poem in its entirity.
    
    Thanks Kat for your effort on our behalf.
