Right. Me too. Now what should I do?

I've been repeatedly misreading Andrew F's "Parthenogenic" as "Parthenongenie" for a few days now.

Also, "Keats 200" --> "Keats ZOO." Nightingale, grasshopper, cricket, etc....

"Eat Old Women"

(Apparently, a cross between Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal For preventing the Children of Poor People From being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and For making them Beneficial to the Publick," and Susan McLean's workshop thread titled "Fat Old Women")

Cute! Julie, it reminds me a bit of the old saying, Eat the Rich. Evidently Motorhead and Aerosmith both have songs with that title now.
The Swift is brilliant.

Cheers,
John
