BTWD sent me an e-mail about this. His typing is poor but I believe it was something about a pot, a kettle, and black.

LOL..... the thing is, BTWD is a girl. Now she has even more neuroses!!! And I am not neurotic. I'm just a little eccentric, that's all!

He was an emotional basket case for a while after that......Irish men can get redder than any other race of men....he was so red, he was redder than the lipstick I put on him. His name was Bill.

I hope he isn't on this forum by some horrible hand of fate....he will know itis him, and probablynever come back

Gabriel,

Here is the male form feminised to the 'nth' degree. Pete Burns is a 'pop artist' taking part in the current UK Celebrity Big Brother. You may not know the name ... but perhaps you remember a group called Dead or Alive ... they had a hit called 'You spin me round' back in 1982 / 3. He is the lead singer.



However he has been courting trouble - claiming that a coat he wore, was made of Gorilla fur. Yesterday the 'house' was visited by the police who took away the coat for analysis since Gorillas are protected.

---------------------------------------------
BBC News update :

Big Brother coat not gorilla fur

Burns boasted a coat he wore in the house was gorilla fur
Police have confirmed a coat worn by singer Pete Burns on Celebrity Big Brother was not made from gorilla fur, but originates from colobus monkeys.
Officers took the coat following complaints Burns had boasted of it being gorilla, which could have been a of breach of endangered animals laws.

The matter has been passed to the Crown Prosecution Service to decide whether the coat contravenes importation rules.

Celebrities Rula Lenska, Traci Bingham and Maggot face eviction.

They were chosen by their fellow housemates to face the public vote to leave on Friday. Whoever leaves will be the third contestant to leave the Channel 4 series, which sees celebrities living in a camera-filled house.

Hertfordshire Constabulary said it treated wildlife crime as seriously as any other following complaints from the public about Burns bragging on TV of wearing gorilla fur.

Expert analysis

If it had been found to be gorilla fur then Burns could have been prosecuted under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites), which was passed in 1975.

Experts from the Natural History Museum in London were asked to analyse the coat after two officers collected it from Big Brother's base at Elstree Studios, Borehamwood.


The Colobus monkey originates from Africa

They found that it did not originate from gorilla but from black and white colobus monkeys, which are native to Africa.

The experts reported the coat was in a "relatively poor condition" and had been relined at some point.

My mum actually did something similar to what you described, to my father who was passed out in a drunken stupor - he was due at a RAF Squadron dinner that evening

Lipstick, Eyeliner, Cheek Rouge, Chanel No5

You know, I saw the video for that song the other day and we were debating whether he could be gay. He was so manly in the video, but then again he was wearing a pirate eye patch, so we couldn't be sure.

[DublHelix]

Di,

Apparently he is married ( or at least was) with a daughter.

Though he has referred to a boyfriend.

He is now at least very camp, collagen lip implants, holds ciggies like a woman, drinks even tea through a straw. That had me flummoxed - then I concluded it was because he didn't want to smear his lipstick.

He walks round the 'BB House' in full female attire.

The other day he wore a blouse and fishnet bodystocking

One of the other contestants looked at him departing and ( seeing his *ahem* cheeks) commented ' At least he'll always have somewhere to park his bike.'

Apparently he's 44.

He is definitely still male - he answered that question ie no transgender surgery.

Not sure about how the pirate eye patch would determine orientation though.

LOL Me either, but pirate jokes are really funny. To me, anyway. Ahem.

BTW the word of the day is flummoxed. Should I say it flah-MOXED (which is how I always thought it was said) or FLUM-oxed (how I heard it on Gilmore Girls the other night). However you say it.... still the word of the day!

You might like to check out this link :

For a children's tv show I watched back in the early 70s.

As you can see - the urban myths about the show are debunked - yet still pretty amusing.

Yes, i agree...it is a great "word of the day word"...gee, even the word confused me til I looked it up

I have two threads/posts that made me laugh out loud today.

First one is in "Tech Tips and Tricks" and someone that was spamming all over TSG about his own forum had just been banned. His final thread was titiled "Five Steps to a Super Fast Windows." This person was banned within a couple of posts on this final thread after only having been here for eight posts (all of them spam).

Dude044 says:

Yep, I think the thread title should have been '5 Steps To A Super Fast Ban'

The second one is in the "Site Comments and Suggestions" forum. AcaCandy mentions she's been having computer troubles so JohnWill says:

think the cat put bullet holes in the machines, that's why she's having so much trouble!

You gotta' watch those wild cats with machine guns.

AcaCandy:

I guess bullet holes could create shorting against the case?

DaveC:

Shorts....Hmmmmm.....
Have you been marking your territory?

Great,

My extensive vocabulary has confounded two ladies - so my mother's constant imputations regarding my supposed lack of intelligence are likewise consigned to the dustbin of falsehood.

Thank you ladies, and hope you both have a good weekend.

My vocabulary is just fine, Mr. Man!!! Please note that I knew what it meant, I just wasn't sure on which was the best way to say it. And Gabriel was smart enough to look it up instead of just acting like she knew what it meant. Maybe if yours is so extensive, you should start a word of the day thread!!!

Hope your weekend is a good one.
