what was the longest person in africa

― natnael russom, Tuesday, 20 April 2004 12:00 (twenty-one years ago)

It was a tie.

― Aimless (Aimless), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 13:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Their finest ditch digger.

― Michael White (Hereward), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 14:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm about 5ft 7ins, which is quite long for a girl, and I've been to Africa, too. So I win.

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 15:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Why, CJ!

All this time I thought you were metric!

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 16:05 (twenty-one years ago)

My verse is metric. At least, my iambic pentameters are anyway.

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah, what feet she hath.

― Michael White (Hereward), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:25 (twenty-one years ago)

One's short, one's long. It's a wonder I can stand up at all.

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:15 (twenty-one years ago)

That must be a horrible financial burden on you. ONE pair of Nikes is expensive enough...but TWO!

I will endeavor to find a support group for people with asymetric feet and if I can find your opposite, with the same taste in footware, it will be a financial windfall for you both.

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:35 (twenty-one years ago)

My footwear tastes horrible. I think it's the fungal infection that does it.

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:37 (twenty-one years ago)

Is it the anapestic kind or the trochaic?

― Michael White (Hereward), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 19:54 (twenty-one years ago)

'Anapestic' sounds sort of prehistoric.

― Terry Dactyl (C J), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 08:54 (twenty-one years ago)

"prehistoric" sounds sort of glopalyctic.

― Matt (Matt), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 09:33 (twenty-one years ago)

glopalyctic sounds sort of didactic.

― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 09:48 (twenty-one years ago)

You rang, Sir?

― Otto Didakt (Hereward), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 13:57 (twenty-one years ago)

"didactic" is closely followed by didapper.

Can't leave the grebes alone, can you.

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 14:36 (twenty-one years ago)

*ducks*

― C J (C J), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 15:29 (twenty-one years ago)

At 5'7" ( and blessings on your imperial soul), surely you must live in a mediaeval house, or possibly a coal mine? Even Wimpey homes don't have ceilings that low ( though stretching out in the room might be tricky for you...)

― Weebleman (StillSimon), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 20:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Perhaps even a medieval Wimpey coal mine.

― Michael White (Hereward), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 22:08 (twenty-one years ago)

suck!

― $corpium ($corpium), Wednesday, 21 April 2004 22:10 (twenty-one years ago)

I always hit my head on the door frame of that pub where Jerome K Jerome wrote that book about those men and that boat (and the dog). The Barley Mow, at Clifden Hampden. It's got a sign above the door saying "Duck or Grouse". Oh, how I laugh.

― C J (C J), Thursday, 22 April 2004 05:05 (twenty-one years ago)

When I say 'laugh', obviously I really mean 'cry'.

― C J (C J), Thursday, 22 April 2004 09:07 (twenty-one years ago)

Is anapestic any good for fungal foot infections?

The longest person in Africa? David Livingstone was there pretty long, wasn't he?

― Dorien Thomas (Dorien Thomas), Thursday, 22 April 2004 15:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Long perhaps. Pretty? I don't think so. At least not to my taste.

― Michael White (Hereward), Thursday, 22 April 2004 20:43 (twenty-one years ago)

How very presumptuous of you.

― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Friday, 23 April 2004 07:34 (twenty-one years ago)

"Dr. Ugly, I presume."

― Michael White (Hereward), Friday, 23 April 2004 15:47 (twenty-one years ago)

one month passes...

You presume correct

― Dr Ugly (C J), Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:15 (twenty-one years ago)

I have even presumed erect.

― Michael White (Hereward), Thursday, 27 May 2004 15:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Boy, did that get me in trouble.

― Michael White (Hereward), Thursday, 27 May 2004 21:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't call me 'boy'

― C J (C J), Thursday, 27 May 2004 21:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Sorry, ma'am. *Bows and scrapes while walking backwards* Will that be all, Doctor?

― Michael White (Hereward), Friday, 28 May 2004 18:22 (twenty-one years ago)

ten months pass...

I wish I were a doctor. I'd know how to get rid of this flippin' awful streaming cold I'm suffering.

Any suggestions?

― C J (C J), Thursday, 7 April 2005 08:34 (twenty years ago)

A streaming cold can be deleted from your temporary files.

― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Thursday, 7 April 2005 11:08 (twenty years ago)

Is a flip pin anything like a hat pin? Just prick yourself with it - should do the trick.

― MSW (MSW), Thursday, 7 April 2005 11:52 (twenty years ago)

CJ might I suggest a concoction that has been of great help to me in the past under similar circumstances.

Fill a quart jar three fouths of the way full with a bourbon of your choice.

Place the jar in a shallow dish of extremely warm water... about 105 degrees F.

After the jar of bourbon has warmed to the temp of the water cut either a lemon or a lime into wedges. Keep one of the wedges and place the rest into the fridge.

Slowly sip the bourbon.... DO NOT GULP!

Nibble the lemon wedge between sips as needed.

Before you know it your streaming cold will not matter to you in the least.

Go ahead and try it, you'll like it!

― Ðµdë §téè£, Friday, 8 April 2005 02:11 (twenty years ago)

Simply imagining the the things CJ might like gives me a thrill.

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Friday, 8 April 2005 10:54 (twenty years ago)

I've noticed a reference or two to hat pins. Has someone returned to us?

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Friday, 8 April 2005 11:01 (twenty years ago)

CJ, Zen has been taking hints from the lyrebird lately and has constructed an elaborate dancing ground, decorated with fiddly bits of colorful trash he has picked up along the Florida seashore. This he offers to you in salute to your pulchritudinous pleasingness, in hopes you shall lay his brood.

My advice to you is the same as given to Matt in another thread. Make him learn to burp his sweet nothings before you pay him any mind. It might be fun to teach him to grovel as well, in the manner of a whipped lackey. If only we could find a proper instructor in the grovelling arts. Who among us might serve? Hmmmm.

― Aimless (Aimless), Friday, 8 April 2005 17:11 (twenty years ago)

I was thrown from a horse on a grovel driveway once. It smarted.

― M. White (Miguelito), Friday, 8 April 2005 20:32 (twenty years ago)

I GROVEL TO NO ONE SIR!

Chihuahuas and bartenders don't count, do they?

(You're groveling.)

Shit!

― Zen Clown (Zen Clown), Friday, 8 April 2005 22:19 (twenty years ago)

It is true, the more you grovel the closer you get to shit.

― MSW (MSW), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 21:13 (twenty years ago)

one year passes...

Now they are answering to one another! Soon they will mate and multiply.
