And here I thought I was just posting a lighthearted joke, that frankly I thought poked fun at folks across the political spectrum, and really, the whole dang season itself.

[Cry]

I flunked funny. Sort of like the Roman soldier who flunked flank.

(If you get the reference, I'll send you cookies. First winner only.) [Big Grin]

So really, this is all *your* fault. Well, what a relief. [Kiss] Thanks for taking the blame.


Marcus Vindictus and captain mucus, History of the World Part 1. I like Peanut Butter Cookies. But the postage to CZ might be pricey...

That movie is a hoot. Talk about raunchy humor. I wish MB would have done Part 2 . . .

Peanut butter, it is. E-mail your address. I'll make 'em and send 'em this weekend.

I am a passable cook. There are few Jatraqueros who have sampled my cooking, and they are still alive. *grin*

Nono, Shan I can't ask you to send me anything. Thanks for the offer, but honestly the postage to the Czech republic would be expensive for cookies.

She could send 'em by boat. That probably wouldn't be prohibitively expensive.

I got curious and checked. 2 lbs of cookies would cost $16.90 to send standard mail.

Indeed. How do you think people with relatives abroad send presents without paying the earth?

Carrier pigeon, perhaps? *grin*

That is more likely than you think, actually. The last time I sent my parents a present, the chocolates had been nibbled when they arrived. Presumably by the carrier pigeons, fortifying themselves for the Atlantic.

Perhaps it was an *African* swallow?

Goodness -- I hope pigeons don't react to chocolate the way dogs do . . .

The cookies would be peanut butter. Logically then, you should employ a flying elephant.

Yes, the cookies would be peanut butter. However, KoM was talking about nibbled-on chocolates. I was worrying about his carrier pigeons, not ours. [Wink]
