OT. Dining companions
The following question was put up on another group/forum I subscribe to and
I wonder how this newsgroup would answer it: (******* shows deletion of theme of group) "Sat here on a dull Sunday evening with no ******* to look forward to ( Pondering, and was thinking about my 6 ideal dinner companions (not including spouses):" Who are your 6? By the way, can be dead or alive. |

Or do you mean we can invite 6 who we hope might be dead after eating our plate de jour of roast potato-fruits avec le sauce Hemlock ? Perhaps the ***** group is necrophilia annonymouses ? and I checked to see if this was one of those xposted trolls we have had of late, but no, seems that you were 'serious' !! |

6 dead dinner guests ? Doesn't sound like a bundle of fun to me. Or do you mean we can invite 6 who we hope might be dead after eating our plate de jour of roast potato-fruits avec le sauce Hemlock ? :-) No, the idea is to invite 6 people from any period. For example one of the group listed Queen Elizabeth as a young girl, another Henry VIII :-) Perhaps the ***** group is necrophilia annonymouses ? Not at all. A highly respected group by invitation only subject to certain criteria. and I checked to see if this was one of those xposted trolls we have had of late, Not at all :-)) but no, seems that you were 'serious' !! Very much so :-)) Had one email asking if I am expecting the 'click of Jack Boots', "I think not" :-)) and your 6 are? Mike |

Perhaps the ***** group is necrophilia annonymouses ? Not at all. A highly respected group by invitation only subject to certain criteria. Well, yes, I am sure it (the one I referred to) would be ! ;-)) Had one email asking if I am expecting the 'click of Jack Boots', "I think not" :-)) heheee ! and your 6 are? Still working on it :-) Roger Penrose would be high on the list of alive/pro/good guests. I have some members of this group shortlisted for my plate de jour tho' ,,,, (just a joke, honest guv),,, but there may be a little delay whilst I try some seriously ontopic stuff of preparing a website with some photos of my putative poplar/aspen mit zee mistletoe for Rusty and Stewart & peeps to contemplate,, more later ,,, |

But, to be fair, you would call the diners "Mr", which is rare these days; so let's compromise: I'll call it a mere A flat. -- Mike. |
