My worms came second again! Muscle tone, obedience, speed and even polish were first rate, but the judges said my worms did not conform to the new earlobe standards. They said I need Laulobes now. I told them worms don't have ears, but would they listen? No, Laulobes are what they want, Laulobes are what they will see in any worm but mine.

They will! Just watch me. I'm out of worm breeding. It's old fashioned anyway. The future is wombats!

Worms are busy creatures.......

Worms crawl in, worms crawl out.
They play pinochle on your snout....

So true, especially in your part of the world. Isn't Paisley in Strathclyde?

BBC wrote:
Force is strong for Jedi police

Eight police officers serving with Scotland's largest force listed their official religion as Jedi in voluntary diversity forms, it has emerged.

Strathclyde Police said the officers and two of its civilian staff claimed to follow the faith, which features in the Star Wars movies.

Yes,that's right.In the UK as a whole,over
400,000 people declared their religion as "Jedi" in the last census and Strathclyde Police seem to have a fair proportion.
Unfortunately these days the reputation of the British police in general would suggest most folk view them as more likely to be worshippers of Darth Vader than Luke Skywalker !

All I know is that ancient weapons and hokey religions are no match for a good blaster at your side...

By the bye, some of you might recall that a while back I cited one of my favorite battle cries. I finally ran across its etymology, deep in the Looking For Group archives!

For Pony!!
