UH OH...think I'm in trouble here.. ::drinking::...on my left hand both ring and index are they same length, and then I close my right eye, hey I can count to 5  ::drinking::
THEN on my right hand my ring finger is longer, so if I close my left eye I can spell Ornithorhynchus (that's a Platypus for you non-marsupial owners :)::drinking:: but when I open both eyes and look at both hands  ::drinking::  everything is a lot harder to 5pe11 and c0un71ng is r311y hard.... but if i wrap both hands around this cold bottle here....
::complaining: OH NEVER MIND.... I think I'm just as airtac once told me......irreverent  :D :D  ::drinking::

 ::sulk:: ::sulk:: ::drinking::

Tell us what kind of marsupial you own and you may be today's winner in the CW wierd pet contest ::bow::

While we're talking of index fingers, I've noticed there seems to 2 main variances in flipping someone off (the bird-American style)  (oh yeah babe, this is scientific alright !)  ::whistle::

1. Three fingers folded against the palm and held in place by the thumb with index finger protruding full length
                                                            OR
2. Three fingers bent at the second knuckle with index finger extended alone from second knuckle and thumb aligned with side of palm

International versions vary but the general meaning is one of derision and disrespect.  ::rambo:: ::complaining:

How about a straw poll on versions------Oh shoot, I should have started a new thread.....................lets keep it clean OK ::type::

Franklin.... :P I have to 'fess up, he's not mine :( ....Don't want National Parks & Wildlife raiding my house :o ... :'(  just wanted to win Airtacs CW weirdest pet prize....and No you can't actually have one as a pet (mores the pity they are too cute)...Bilby's are HIGHLY endangered and very protected lil' fellas, foxes and orther introduced preditors have nearly wiped them out, so the conservation guys are trying very very hard to breed them at zoo's and wildlife parks and the like to keep them from extinction....and they are doing a great job too!!!

And Gilly actually i think its a Rat and a Bandicoot :D



P.S. in true CW style i have accidently Hijacked Moms subject..sorry Mom

Friend of mine has a pet... sugar glider I believe it's what it's called.


It's a little nocturnal flying squirrel type thing.   When it gets mad it makes this horrible shrieking sound that seems to come from the gates of hell itself.

He lives in TN and I'm under the impression he got it at a pet store.

Baradium ::thinking:: I had a bit of a poke 'round on the net about owning these lil' fellas. WOW  :o you guys have breeder, Vets, stores that sell 'em, VERY responsible Breeders on the net who won't sell you one unless they meet you in person first!!! State by State laws on owning them.....I must say "I'm IMPRESSED".....but then on the other hand.... ::complaining: I live in their native country and I can't have one as a pet NP&WL won't let us :(  ::sulk:: ::sulk:: ::sulk::....

Thanks For opening my eyes up to this  ::bow::
YEWWWwwwwwwwww
