Older folk are more likely to have a problem with profanity.
My parents, who will be 69 this year, have spoiled me rotten for other adults.
I've been tempted to wash my mother's mouth out with soap from time to time. She actually gets worked up and angry when she thinks about people thinking "hell" is bad language, and I've given up arguing with her about it.
My brother-in-law once remarked that all the women in our family say the word "shit" with the same sort of lengthy clenched-mouth hiss. I'm honestly not sure if I picked that up from Mother or from Alison or from them both.
Fay has the bestest stories evah!
Anyone up and around?
Not me, should be sleeping. How goes it, vw?
I'm here, but not really posting
HAH! I think Billytea should totally include the bunny-ears photo. :)
t blows raspberry
I have to retain
some
mystery.
How could someone say no to that, huh? Booooo.
Seriously, if they say no to that, it's their loss, not yours.
Oh, I love that picture. --
It's a good one, isn't it?
I have one. Possibly two.
It's ok, I have located a copy on my laptop, and have added it to my profile. All is well.
And Brits. But I already have a crush on you anyway, so it may not be a fair way of judging the efficacy of the profile. (When meeting Meara in person there was perhaps an unseemly degree of "You met Billytea!!! Did you go to the zoo with him?" bouncing, when she recounted her travels up to that point.)
Aww. Now I'm blushing. See this, right here? Blushytea.
I've had one response from my profile today, but I'm going to have to decline. It's the old story, she's a little bit country, and I'm a little bit rock and roll. But it's nice to be contacted. I need to compose the "thank you for your application" letter tonight.

Good morning, everyone. Fay, are you escaping from evil school and going to new school, soon?
Two more days of teaching, two further days of packing up, sorting out files & planning etc etc, and then I'm out of there. Hopefully with money in hand, but there's still no guarantee. Sigh. New school starts September 11th, of all days. It's still being built, but it certainly
looks
shiny.

Heh. I'm a hat-wearing, fan-wielding Brit who educates children in the desert and writes Big Gay Porn in her spare time. Billytea is the Australian guru of all things natural historical and in his spare time he pretends to be an Investment Consultant. Together we fight crime.
Or, you know, continents apart, we fight crime.
Or at least disapprove of it.
Unless it involves infringement of copyright, in which case at least one of us is a bit less in possession of moral highground with regard to some specific criminal activities.
Er.
Continents apart, we regard most crime with marked disapproval. And talk about the works of Joss Whedon. Amongst other things, including (but not limited to) echidnas,
The Lord of the Rings,
the serial comma, swearing, ant farms, art history, Science Fiction and duct tape.
Snappy, no?

Snark, trivia, Powers-of-detention-giving and Stinky Feet of Doom? Or is that just me?
