Hahaha~

Don, she said "bring batter". The poor homeless woman. She must need it to fry a squirrel. Honestly, the way some people are forced to live, these days. No! Don't give her any money, honey, keep walking.

wanna hear a funny Hyde Park story along those lines??

too bad, i'm telling....

Me, my 14 year old niece and my good friend Becs were staying at the London Hilton. It is directly across the street from Hyde Park, a street which is very busy. It took us Americans waaay more time than it should have to figure out how to cross the road to get to the park (do Not insert chicken joke here). I believe we finally asked the bellman directions on how to 'cross the street'. It turns out the answer is: you can't. You have to take the stairs leading down to an underground tunnel that crosses under the road. Yee Haw. So we find the stairs and discover despite the moniker "tunnel" it is not too bad...shiny white tiles and even some artsy ones with various colored leaves strewning the works...alas there was a cot set up with some long-term bedding and assundries stationed around it...a little further down the tunnel was a scrappy man with a guitar singing a lovely Willie Nelson song. anyways we listen approach (tip) and pass by and I say, "he sound just like Willie Nelson." And my smartass niece says, "that IS Willie Nelson!" Maybe you had to be there, but we laughed for way too long about it that day and it still amuses mio....

now back to playing dead (battery)

"Oh my God !!! Those drunken, crazed women are highjacking another beer truck...!! Hope they don't run into my old Cortina...

Meanwhile, on another note

~ I'm laughing out loud, just getting to your Willie Nelson story

.

So, there goes DB3, got sober and uppity. "Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease don't pass me by" ~ Ring any bells, Mz. Snoot!?!

Laurie ~ will you get back on track? Here ~ take the batter! ~ Now GIMME the keys! No!!! Not your penlight, dammit ~ the keys!!!

Here we come alllllll the way to England, so Andrew doesn't have to come to Alaska or Florida to get back with us. We finally get a chance to get him a series of beer, and you're chasing down the street, like some beggar, after Mz. Snoot, trying to win her favour by telling her a story? Please pay attention! Gimme the keys! The driver's coming back NOW!
Just watch and tell me if I get too close to that old Cortina!

Laurie? It's ok now. I'm just going to call an ambulance, and they'll drive you home...ok? Everything is fine. Come on now...hold my hand...

Well, now that i am en-er-gized, i don't need anything but an umbrella and another beer....cept maybe another shoe....We should take this beer truck to Stonehenge to watch the sun come up.....

GREEEEAAAAT IDEA, DB1.

I got to Avebury, but not Stonehenge this year! Avebury's much less commercial, you know.....and just beautiful. But, they had a public, parking lot that I think would be similar to one that Stonehenge might have. We can park the truck there and walk in. Or, if we get too bad, we can watch the sun come up from the back of the truck. Another fresh one right handy

.

Did you need the batter-y for your penlight? That's alright. You can use mine. I don't need it to drive. Hey! Did Don jump in with DB3? Is it still just the three of us, or are we four? If that man's here, he's gonna drive. Give him a beer [Well ~ after we get there, of course. No drinking and driving. He NEEDS to be here, so we don't get interrupted. We have a reputation to uphold, you know.]

DB1 ~ You're good with words. Can you leave a note for Andrew, so he'll know where to find us? He still needs to address us individually [if he's still speaking

].

~ DB2

Don dumped me when I let it drop that I knew the girl with no shoe. Someone crack me a beer, please. I think we're going to have to get SWITZ to drive ... if he's still around, that is.

SQUEEL...!!!!

lizzytysh · Post by **lizzytysh** » Thu Jul 28, 2005 9:32 pm

You don't need that type, anyway

~ Sounds to me like SWITZ already took the wheel. Trying to miss his own, old Cortina. Looks like we're in good hands, while we've got something good in ours

Here's a Mythos. Sure am glad London caught on to what makes for a good, mild beer.

SLOW down, SWITZ!!! I just hit my tooth on this bottle. Last thing I need is to come outta here lookin' like Albert

. Andrew will be asking, "To whom do I address?"

....there's really no room for those naked little froggy native boys in their tight leather aprons you picked up in this car...and I wish they would stop licking those toads...its disgusting !! This seatbelt is killing me...m-m-m- must be this cheap beer..do you..? Do you..? Think that my chest is too broad for my finely narrow tapered waist ? #@+*&@% theres cops everywhere. NO you look good with that tooth missing...here put on these wax lips.

...why you look just like Phillis Diller on any given morning..

I spent a small fortune; a king's ransom; on getting young Albert the best counselling that Euros could buy, in order to divert Albert's introspective lack of self esteem coz of that d*mn toof! and now you dear lady have dredged all of the old pysychoseses back into the fore with a throw away line about his appearance. Shame, shame, and double shambles, and I can't afford any more treatment for the poor fella and he'll have to suffer in silence with nothing to raise his spirits but a sympathetic glance from the old lady what lives in the flat below who has been having trouble with her haemoroids again on account of sharing her curry with Albert in an attempt to bring him out of his shell and allow him to blossom and flourish in a way that won't remind him of the 'thing' what you just mentioned.
Woe is me (and Albert). I must throw myself at the mersey of the money lenders in the hope that they can lend me 89 million euros to ave' his toof eradicated from his dishevled mind-set.

What are we to do? The 'orse 'as well an' trooly bolted from the staples an' it's too late now.......................(I need me pills) Matron!!! (exits stage left, no longer persued by a bear)

Me pity to ya, ladth, but if thith driver THWITH knew how to uthe a brake, we wouldn't be in thith meth ~ before I got a chanth to thay thomething, he hit um again, thoh here I thit with a thtupid pair o' wackth lipth, and poor Albert theeking thtill another round o' that quethionable therapy, and th' old lady down below with her curry gone completely to wathte now. It obthiouthly wath not a throwaway comment! WELL, THWITH, you jutht thtay in that theat and keep driving. Act like all ith well, cuth the offitherth are looking for three, drunken ladieth, and you do not look like a one of our dethcriptionth, with that broad chetht and narrow waithte of yourth.

And, if you don't wanna go to jail, you'd betht quit inthulting my favourite beer. We can alwayth scthream kidnapped y'know. They can getcha for falthe imprithonment. They won't thuthpect me of anything when they thee me back here lickin' toadth with thethe native boyth that I gueth DB3 brought on. I know I didn't.

Jutht wave to the copth and keep goin'.

Do you...do you mind facing west when you do that Lizzy? It gets all over me. This could be like that movie "Blind Date"

In any case I'm going to take off all my clothes and march to Florida and surrender to the Seminoles but come to think of it the La brea tar pits are closer (I shall cast myself into that) ...doesn't sound dramatic enough... (FX: sound of 5 beers

being cracked open) Glug...glug...glug....glug....

...glug..glug.....
