The sort of thing more civilised nations do with horse-shoes and cabers and the like; just hurl a rubber boot as far as you can - it can keep a largish group of farmers amused for hours. (o:

.......     ........God, I lead a sheltered life.

I have to say those carrots are almost as scary to me as that... that... succulent. ::shivers at both::

The Ostrich Farm is very cool, though. And the tank. (If only it would be used to enforce fairness in that cake-judging. It's absolutely criminal that a hedgehog won over your sister's Dali cake! But yay, her wine!)

Thanks for posting these ::smooches you:: -- I gather that's 'shamelessly' though, right? We're not supposed to ::smooch:: and all, haven't I been reading something about that -- we're supposed to be dignified and merely pleasantly, yet unenthusiastically, civil? With which there is nothing *wrong*, of course, but it just isn't nearly as much fun...)

I hope your shelter protects you from flying gum boots.

Re: the smooching - are we supposed not to? I have heard that writers are too self-congratulatory and spend way too much time smooching each other when they should be critiquing each other sensibly and being properly snide, snarky and bitter. Is that what you mean? Or is there some other counter-smooching movement that I've hitherto missed?

I'm not actually entirely sure -- just remember reading something somewhere recently that passed along a somewhat uncomplimentary non-LJ comment about how we on LJ squee and smooch so much. Eh, I don't know -- I have hot buttons of my own, so I should let other folks have their smooch and squee hot buttons in peace. (I'm just having a weird and not entirely comprehensible day -- certainly not an intelligent day. ...So naturally I pick today to send you fifteen not entirely comprehensible comments on a single afternoon. ::pities you::)

Well it certainly made for an interesting inbox when I opened my lappy this evening . (o:

I've heard many times on the lists that LJers are too fond of mutual back-slapping; personally I much prefer the smooching to the nastiness of the lists so smooch away, hon as I smooch you back like a shameless doxie.
