698.0. "The infamous white oyster" by KAOFS::M_COTE (I'm a mod, not a rocker) Fri May 07 1993 13:26


        On my long but invigorating bike ride to work today, I was noticing
   along the bikepath, small creatures which seem to congregate around the
   trails edge. More so during the cooler seasons. Upon questioning the
   local natives, I acquired the creature name as "The White Oyster".
   I was wondering if the White oyster is native to the National Capital
   Area or if it has been seen throughout our Great country?
   Should I limit the search to Canada? Might this be a global phenomena?

          Accidentally treading over such an animal, (though I've never done
   it myself) I'm sure would be disastrous.


       Would anyone know were there native habitat is?

    I've heard it's the more flamboyant relative of the swallow.

    At lunch time every day in Kanata recently, there have been
    sightings of the rare blue oyster.  The habitat of the blue oyster
    seems to be right next to Charlie's(alias pud, now defunct member
    of the Canada notes file) lunch plate.  The gathering of observers
    is being monitored by one of our southern neighbors investigative
    bureaus.

    	Ahh yes, Chuck! 

     It has been said that the man actually sees wind!  I've seen a blue 
    Oyster object which would sit directly under his Yota of yesteryear, 
    but the Yota is now not part of the DEC parking lot. It's been replaced 
    with some Fancy Yuppy Foreign Runner (FYFR) of some sort or another.
    It's very easy to recognise, it's the one which is always covered, to
    keep the dust off.
    	Last time I looked, the FYFR was sitting on four of those little 
    display carpets bought from some sleazy carpet wharehouse (I always get my
    a's and o's mixed up), one under each tire. Go ahead and look! Oh sorry
    it might rain today, he probably left it at home.
    	To add to the renaissance look of the man, He rides a Moto-cycle which
    have pedals to help him gather speed. The wood blocks taped to the pedals
    to give added height only increases the P&L value. (point and laugh). 
    Nothing could be safer than a red sparkle helmet, and a bubble face shield 
    it has been said! (NOT!)

698.6Just call me Jean....I'm back!!KUTIPS::LACAILLEHalf-filled bottles of inspirationTue May 11 1993 18:4137
	Leave it to the cot� to get me back into this notes conference
	with his rapier sharp wit...is that why the guys call you sharp?
	I always thought it was because your head comes to a point. The
	dog was kind enough to forward me the note BTW.

	Sorry to say, but the Yota you have described belongs to, none
	other than, Lord Duncan of Exlogistics (a little known fifedom
	in the heart of Centerpoint, a well known yuppy stronghold). My
	Yota is the one that usually gets parked beside your grey sextosex
	when you pop bye on visitation day. I am sorry about the mud clumps
	which fell off on your hood, but I haven't had the chance to wash
	it this year. By the way, the streamers on the Fadzas mirrors don't
	look half bad, but I especially like the trick with the hockey
	card in the spokes, makes it sound so macho.

	I don't know if you heard, but my Binford 9000 intercooled turbo
	snow throwing tractor and dragster, injested a snowbag during the
	last great white snowfall and had to go back to it's country of
	origin for extensive repairs. I almost gave you a call to have
	my driveway cleared but I wasn't sure if the 'lectric broom
	ran off wall current or batteries (doesn't it use 40 nine volts?)

	Anyway, it is nice to be back and I thank you for the effort in
	getting me here. I'll give you that pearl necklace the next time
	we cross paths.


	Saut�ed with blue oysters and a twist of wit,

	Charlie


	ps I understand that the $500,000.00 stereo is still plagued with
	the fridge noise when you play the NHL theme song. Try this; pour
	some beer over the big amply electric thinga-ma-hoozit, it's
	probably thirsty.

      :-)	Saut�ed with blue oysters and a twist of wit,


    	I've always said, "Get the IS(organisation) out of anything and
    you'll finally get some wit!



    	Yeah sure, tell my life story! No wit there, that was pure
    sarcasm.


    	Was too.
