Nathan and I went to the zoo today.

He asked me what my favorite animal was.

I told him the porcupine was rather stuck in my mind.

*giggles*

You have a sharp wit, Shan.

Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :

That takes a lot of spine, Shan.

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :

Stop needling her, Storm Saxon.

Posted by Beren One Hand (Member # 3403) on :

He meant well. He's not trying to be a prick or anything.

Was the porcupine down on the docks? I've always heard that where there's a quill there's a quay, but I've never seen it myself.

Posted by Icarus (Member # 3162) on :

That was painful.

ROFL.

No pointed barbs at my amateur puns, Icky!

*grin*

I'm so unpunny! I can never think up good zingers in these threads. [Frown]

Posted by Shan (Member # 4550) on :

It was purely by accident, Cecily.

Y'know - Nathan's at that awkward age where he's torn between laughing with me, and bristling at my pithy attempts at humor.

Get it? He "bristles" . . . *laughs more*

*goes back to coffee and making breakfast*

Why did the Chinese doctor hug a bristling baby porcupine?

He wanted to get a cute puncture.

You've scored a mighty pun with that one, Beren.

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :

Hmm. You have a point there.

Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :

*laughs* Shan, I did that once too, and had myself rolling. If you can't make other people laugh, making yourself laugh is a close second.

We were at the zoo looking at the Bengel Tigers. My son said something about being glad he wasn't in the cage with them. I said I was glad I wasn't either, because with my feline allergies, I'd be catatonic in no time.

Posted by Shan (Member # 4550) on :

LOL.

Maybe we should have a zoo pun thread. Has Bob already done one of those?

*can't remember*

I need to get myself a kid so I can have an audience for my jokes.

I've offered to share Nathan with you - he'd enjoy sharpening his up-and-coming attorney's teeth on you, too, I'm sure.

[Wink]

*bites Nathan*

While visiting friends in India I realized that there was almost no meat to be had. I tried the local ribs, but they weren't the good hog-ribs I get at home. I started crying to my host about it. He said either, "Its Pork you pine" or "Its porcupine".

I don't know which. I'm just glad I am not there anymore. Pass the pork fat.

I love these threads.

Just cause I needed to remember the funniness . . .
