Time Jif got another CMP to return him to complete sanity.

C'mon Jif, we Aussies and Kiwis (with a few Northern Hemisphere exceptions) can't always be the ones discovering and rescuing CMPs all the time can we?

Good gawd... right now I have nowhere to work on one even if I had it! If I'd had the money, I'd have bought Skagfeld's in a flash (and apropos of nothing whatsoever, mebbe border-raided Churcher's yard for a certain C15TA to-boot... ), but the fact remains, YOU upside-down chaps have most of our good stuff, so piss-off!! I'll settle for collecting kittehs for now...

PS: When these two arrive, it'll make five in our Toronto paradise, so there!

Hanno - Yes, ok, I'm a suck for baby fluffies. Get over it!



PPS: Please note we haven't yet heard from M. Boobee yet... methinks there's some significance in that...

Oh dear. Perhaps you'd better take a look at this, Jif - I think your mind is in danger.
Know your limits

You can't find any cats in Haiti - but that's 'cause they taste better then dogs.

You would think that the Force fed their cowpoke better than that. What are you doing, Clive? Stashing your grub money and eating cheap so that you can buy a CMP upon return??

I was about to say "I suppose you figgered that out for yerself, eh?", but then it occurred to me to opine "...when they're not eating each other". That last is in terribly bad taste however (nudge nudge wink wink, a nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat, eh?) so I won't say that...

Ah.... good to see you're researching for your next book, Clive! "Chef Law's Exotic Cuisine", or perhaps "The Law of Haute Cuisine"? Hahahahaha!!!! Yeah, that works...

Guess I'd better not tell you about 'Old Retriever Stew'.... but honest, I had to do SOMETHING with my poor Sadie after she was run over - there was just too much good meat there! (here's a clue though... they oughta hang for a while before ya cut 'em up... )
