I do not want him in my bathroom!

Save for the occasional porcelain serenade, I should only want him over on the odd year.

It would be an odd year, Mr. Tubbsbottl, if he came.

This isn’t an even year, Mr. Tubbsbotti.

margueitem - Thanks for www.freerice.com yesterday. Fun, educational & worthwhile!

margueritem, dear friend, regarding our little exchange yesterday on the interactive lesson; me too, I’d be embarrassed to say how long it took for me to even figure out how to make the tags stick!

Now she’s going to have to mop the entire house…ewwww

That must be one heck of a clog. Wow.

With a suction cup at the end of his pogo, you’d think he’d stick to the floor and not bounce.

Actually, oldseadog, I think that’s a plunger at the end, but still it should stick to the floor.

He’s on a carpet, not enough good contact to make it stick, same with the concrete sidewalk and steps.

I can’t take credit for that, it was m_ortal who mentioned the site. It was fun, wasn’t it?

I had trouble with Bahrain. When you tagged Qatar, Bahrain’s tiny dot turned yellow, too.

margueitem, I liked www.freerice.com too. It’s addictive.

Woot! Single-handedly ending world hunger! I got to lvl 38 before they got me with effuse = pour forth. Great site! Thanks margueritem!
