Stir it up, I feel things need spice sometimes.

I agree.

It would not be interesting if we all agreed, hahaha as if that would ever happen on here.

There is a broad church here but it'd be boring if we were all of one mind. Still, I'm sure many of us here like U2.

Check out mp3raid.com for their newest album. I believe in paying for bands you like, not getting free listens but some clowns have manipulated a financial crisis so the ballgame has changed.

I hear hints of many things. Clint Eastwood film music (White as Snow), Iggy Pop and Pink Floyd (Wearing the Inside Out). Still, not so close as to allege that they have copied anything. Inspiration from others is a natural process.

It is good to be back from the dead, ladies and gentlemen.

I have this recurring nightmare where I log on here and find Sokrates has been joined by Descartes, Plato, Aristotle, Kant and a few others and I can't understand a single word of any post.

Nice work SeanB.

Thank you, I think everyone will agree, that I have at least made your good self and Szarlotka baby look good;)

I can't understand a single word of any post.

Welcome to my world, what?.

Which in my case is no mean feat ;)

Oh sod it. I just have to write another Omnibus Edition. I thought I could fight the addiction but it’s too strong. I know Miranda and SeanBM have taken over and I’ve lost my mandate (which is pretty painful I can tell you) but it’s the only therapy I can afford in these troubled times. Which is a polite way of saying that I don’t give a monkey’s cuss whether anybody reads this or not.

Pistols at Dawn

Looks like the big falling out at the moment is between Sokrates and Randal. They just don’t seem to be hitting it off at all. I’m still trying to figure out which of the forty three levels of disagreement has tipped them over the edge. It could be the Jewish position or the liberals position or even the missionary position. Probably best to leave them to sort it out. If there are any volunteers to be their seconds then drop them a line.

I would post 10,000 times and I would post 10,000 more.

Proclaim it from the rooftops, Seanus (after a suitably theatrical pause on 9,999 which may have been some form of vertigo) has racked up 10,000 active posts. Considering that the monthly purge of the off topic lounge is so draconian these days then this is a stupendous achievement. Some of us choose to see this as an indication that the Sheep should get out to graze more often whilst others have heaped praise upon him.

Semper Filios

Yes he’s back. Filios1, our resident half Greek, half Polish and half cut super hero has returned. Mystery surrounds his allusion to having suffered a near death experience. Perhaps he will tell us more about this in time. For now let us rejoice in his return. Bubbawoo has already made him most welcome in that inimitable style that is all his own. I think it ended in off.

Lurking on a sunny day

Would you Adam and Eve it, Mufasa popped back in briefly to demand to know who had deleted the only useful thread in the whole Forum. Does this mean we have more lurkers out there just waiting for someone, anyone to post anything that is a) informative, b) interesting, c) useful, d) juicy or e) not full of bile? Of course, as a gold member with access to the logged on list I know the lurkers. However, it would be wrong of me to name then, especially when for a small fee you could all become gold members and see for yourselves. Tight fisted they are Master.

Site leaders take Woman’s Day battering.

It seemed a simple message to readvertise the existence of our ‘sister’ site Polishwomen.com. A simple banner headline that told you to check it out of you were one of the unlucky ones not to have received the long stemmed red rose. Some of us objected to that message and launched into long tirades about us turning into yet another exploitive dating site. Must be me but I just found it quite amusing.

Don’t patronise me

This started off with JulietEcho’s plea to avoid Jewish or Zionist businesses (bit of a difference there so some clarity might be in order). It’s now spread to all sorts of things that we should avoid, like Polish girls with tattoos or women that are 24 years younger than their partners. It’s nice to see PF echoing the general gloom and doom out there that can make a case for anything, even in moderation, being bad for you. By the way, I would like to know whether there is going to be a problem with a relationship where the woman looks 24 years younger than her partner.

Shall I compare her to a Summer’s Day

Wyspi has shared some of her writing with us. It was very well received and she has been encouraged to carry on. Now how many of us Brits would have penned our first musings in Polish in such a short space of time? Good on you Wyspi.

Well that’s enough literary therapy for one day. Time for the Guinness therapy now. There were other things going on of course. Like the cocks going back in the US of A and the usual banter between Harry, HB and Cellinski but time is precious as I once said. Take care all.

Get me roaring drunk, and perhaps I will.

Borrowed from my golfing partner. You should hear him when I miss a three foot putt. I don't think he's saying tough luck old boy ;)

Seanus? Did you hear that a spanish historian now says Kolumbus was
in reality a Scot named Pedro Scotto? :)

(He was also contrary to the common image a blond with light eyes and freckles...)

Hehehe, funny you mention that BB. The Poles get angry when I even suggest that Columbus may have been German.

I never did have much time for Spanish historians, never understood them :(

Good to have Mr Owl at the helm again. The other 2 are worthy successors for sure. Great summarisers. Still, this was Szarly's baby :)

Honey they shrunk my thread.

Still never mind. Most of it was not very good anyway, although what I consider to be my best effort has gone I think.

St. Patrick's day aftermath?.

I expect a full report as soon as your hangover has finally hung over.

Dear Szarlotka,
The PF - Omnibus Edition is the conscious part of PF.
The part that tries to give some meaning and make some sence of the sub-conscious chaos.
With out it we would be lost in virtual space.

although what I consider to be my best effort has gone I think.

Must try harder :)

Best regards,
A gibbering idiot.
