Be Excellent To Each Other

You probably shouldn't meet him.

If you did, he'd try to snoop your name and your surname troubles would cause his mojo to implode.

It's the tiny glance to the camera as he says it.

I went to the zoo today and did not get pee'd on by a tapir. I did see a parrot poo on a man's face, though.

I got pooed on at Paris zoo.

What animal poo did you encounter?

His wife's. That's howw some couples get their kicks. In public, the danger...

Merely pigeon, disappoointingly.

We met this funny giraffe

Perhaps he knows this guy I met once:





(that second one is shot up through my car's sunroof)

You mean he's not eating you?

Malc

Hehe, that is a special kind of wonderful.

I love the colours in the first photo. My camera has done a good job of punching the contrast up juuuuuust enough.

The blue sky looks gorgeous in it, too. We had a lovely blue sky for most of yesterday, but the giraffes were right at the end of the day and the sun had gone in so that sky was just white. She was funny though, kept on walking off and then tossing her head back over her shoulder like a stroppy prima-donna.

Giraffes are soooo cute.

Awww, they are - it is their giant eyes and long eyelashes, they're so funny.

Your car has an ejector seat?

Giraffes? Brrrrr.

They have vocal chords yet make no sounds. How sinister is that?

My mum's husband when I was quite young, Ian, used to tell me that the button on the glove compartment was what set the passenger's ejector seat off. I must have been five or six years old one day when he parked outside a shop to get some drinks. I sat in the car and waited and I tried to make sure that my seatbelt was on as tight as possible. I sat there, feeling tense, took a deep breath and stuck my finger out onto the button, I screwed up my eyes really tight, held my breath and pushed. A little click and thud and I didn't shoot up into the air. I opened my eyes and there were some sunglasses and a packet of Polos.

What a disappointing conclusion to my great adventure.

I met a funny Ostrich.

Hehe, what an excellent, excellent photo, Mali!

I didn't know Derren Brown was gay. Well done Derren for not being one of those mincey poncey type gays!

Also: Giraffes are awesome.

As far as *you* know. He could just be making you think that. And all the while he's mincing around in a tight sky-blue t-shirt carrying a manbag over a limp arm.

Fanks.

Chester Zoo's re-enactment of Jurassic Park really does lose something in translation, doesn't it?

This thread makes me sad now.

He could be *up* me right now and whispering a card sequence into my ear in preparation for a future episode...

*shudder*

Heh, is that how he knew Grim... was called Matt by bumming him into a trance like state and reading his personalised grunderwear

Are you frightened of giraffes too?

lo lgays.

No, giraffes are excellent beyond words. However, people discussing how Giraffes are excellent makes me incredibly sad.

MR CONFUSED FACE?

Does it make you pine after your old friend, Mr LongNeck, who died in a tragic rollercoaster accident?

I got licked by a giraffe at Twycross. That one in Dicky's photo is obviously a window licker.

So now you're sad at yourself Dave?

Happiness at the excellence of excellent giraffes makes you sad, Mr Dave?

What about monkeys?

What a loser!

HAHAHAHAHA!

"I disagree."

The System: Brilliant.

Did you think? I knew what was going on from the first couple of minutes in - both with the coin and with the horses.

I think it was a brilliant display of the idea he was trying to convey, but I knew from the start.

I mean as a show. I'm not going to say I had it sussed from the start, but I picked up enough of the clues early on to raise enough flags to figure it out.

I think I worked it out from as soon as I saw the coins. What I wasn't sure of tho, was that last race included in the pyramid or not? (ie did they actually film 6 people that day or just her?)

Malc

The bit where he predicted which photos hanging from the ceiling would be chosen was quite interesting (was that this special, or something else I am thinking of?)

It was this one. And yeah, it was good.

Malc

Wasn't as impressed with Fridays episode, even though he threw a girl, in a bag, in a cold lake.

It was just a bit, meh.

I didn't see that episode.

I did, however, start reading my copy of 'Tricks of the Mind' this weekend, and all I have to say about it thus far is:

Telephone, sausage, monkey, buttons, book, cabbage, glass, mouse, stomach, carboard, ferry, Christmas, athlete, key, wigwam, baby, kiwi, bed, paintbrush, walnut.

That's a lot of stuff to hide in your sleeves/gullet/anus.

Be careful.

Panama!

Mr D, are you suggesting Curiosity has a canal like anus?

Heh.

To be honest, I'm amazed I can recall that, and my memory is shit.

I read it a couple of months ago and I can still repeat it.

Can't get the hang of the number one though
