Mine is self-explanatory, really----I love camping, and I love cats!!

I like ?peaceful relations? but I have this 'foot in mouth' ability that astounds me with hindsight; it?s to remind me to be thoughtful in my interactions.

I cannot escape them
No matter how I try
They wait for me everywhere
I cannot pass them by.

Driving down the street
I see "Jesus Is Lord"
And then immediately after
I hear the word "FNORD!"

Innocuous sayings and parables
And on the evening news
I hear the word "FNORD!"
And suddenly I'm confused

I sit alone in my room
And I'm feeling rather bored
I turn on the tube and guess what
I hear the word "FNORD!"

"Don't see the fnords and they won't eat you"
That's what I've heard the wise men say
But I can't get away from those beasties
There's just no Fnording way!

I was born in 1962 and I've always been called Robin Redbreast.

Mine is a humorous internet slang word for a shut-in. Literally, "own-home security guard".

Jory is a character in Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik.

I'm a rebel who has a Cockney accent. Where I was really born doesn't matter. I've had the accent my whole life though nobody else in my cookie cutter family did. I'm a rebel in a family of sheep.
