True as the North Star

18 September 2005


I may be jumping the gun a little, but at least this way you may get some practice in. Tomorrow (Monday the 19th) is Talk Like A Pirate Day. And in honour of this day I direct you to wavs and mp3s from Dodgeball, but you are only allowed listen to Steve the Pirate’s quotes.

Also it is Week 137

  9. Fence says:

    Andi, you seem to run towards school rather than away from

    Don't worry Anne, I'll forgive you, probably.

    Does that "harmless little rabbit" happen to have nasty pointy teeth Carl?

    Isn't it strange how many of us associated horses with glue?

  11. Fence says:

    Another cuts to the bone. Yeah

  12. Anne says:

    Probably? OK, what can I do?
    Sean Bean is the greatest, Sean Bean is the best. There. How am I doing now?

  13. Fence says:

    well in that case all is forgiven :) The question now becomes, would Sean Bean make you take his seat on the bus?

  14. Carl V. says:

    My horses=glue association goes back to the first time I saw Young Frankenstein. And yes, he does happen to have nasty, pointy teeth. :)

  15. Fence says:

    Mine is, as you may have guessed, related to Animal Farm, I've no real memories of the book, but the cartoon… Poor Boxer :(

  16. Anne says:

    I doubt Sean Bean would be on the bus… But, being the greatest and the best, if he were on it, he'd probably do, yes.

  17. Fence says:

    Maybe, being such a gentleman, he'd give you his seat next to a certain Jeffrey Lynn Goldblum at some film "do"

  18. NineMoons says:

    Jeffrey LYNN? That's nearly as bad as poor old John Wayne's real name.

  19. Anne says:

    Actually, NM, I like to think that Lynn made Jeff Goldblum in touch with his feminine side, which Marion obviously failed to do with Wayne.
    But let's talk of Sean Bean. Bean. That's all I'm saying.

  20. Fence says:

    You know that Sean Bean spells his name wrong. Cause it should have a fada on the Seán to give it that awwww sound. But without a fada sean should be pronounced shan and means old. So Sean Bean really means Old Bean ;)

    How was your first day at your new job?

  22. Anne says:

    Thanks for making that point even clearer, Fence. ;)
