Love dolls? Drink tea? Have jewelry?
A place to decorate
with a different sort of beauty?
You've never worn a dress like this,
But you do have friends!
Don't want to give the same old gift?

Discuss.

In order, no (though they tell me that they are very realistic these days),occasionally, no.
My beauty is certainly different, in fact from beauty.
I've never worn a dress at all ( except once in a very bad play, I just remembered).
Pleased to know I have friends. Wish they would finish that game of hide and seek soon.
Any old gift at all would do really.

Can you now arrange for my ride camel back down the old spice routes, with cargoes of silk, myrhh, amber and peacocks, camping nightly in the shadows of ancient fortresses and sharing fermented mares milk with enigmatic strangers as we watch the dancing girls in the light of the flaring campfires? If not, why not? And is Iraq part of our route?

Ahh! You got that same spam mail this morning then?

Me too

Matt, you've also got the Klez virus, you dirty man. Get it sorted, see a doctor or something.

ah that would be the tribal wise man, who can assist with camel dung poultices, laid on by the dancing girls ( in a spare moment) whilst chanting ancient incantations to the sound of finger cymbals.

three weeks pass...
They are now getting utterly desperate - this is the opening kine from a standard Nigeriaspam I got today -

"As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday"

Pathos, Zuma Idrisa, pathos.

Nigerians are famous for their pathetic opening kines. Zuma, I think, would have much better luck soliciting money from us well-to-do white people if he would just say that he needed the money for breast augmentation for his horribly ugly wives. I have recieved this silly shit so many times, I broke down and sent him a subscription to "Playboy".

Hasn't reached me yet- did you get the address absolutely right?

C/o 3rd bonfire to the left, by the old legion fort and to the north of the wadi where the infidels perished beneath the swords of my great grandfather ( and indeed grandma). You can't miss it, although there seems to be a lot of modern development these days- bonfires springing up all over the place.
