Gary, I'm very, very sorry mate. :sad:

I don't know what came over me; I do know I'm one (there 'tis) very stressed monkey.
I'm about to go back and wipe my comments; it's not for me to "pass the law", but rather to lead by example.

Your deft manipulation of the text showed great wit and skill, IMHO, and was funny. :D
Thank you for not complicating my already frayed-at-the-edges life by reacting negatively.

Bravo bud!

Bill's Guinness-drinking squirrel reminds me of an old joke:

An Irish poacher's out checking his rabbit snares in the mountains one boiling hot summer afternoon when he hears a small voice crying, "Help! Help!" He spots a bog-hole nearby and there, at the bottom of it, lies a leprechaun caught in one of his snares.

"Well, well, well," says the poacher, "what class of a rabbit have we got here?"

"I'm not a rabbit, you blind gobdaw. I'm a leprechaun. Now get me out of here."

The poacher thinks for a moment, then says, "And what'll you gimme if I do?"

The leprechaun looks up slyly at him and says "I'll give you one wish."

"One wish? I think I should get three."

"Do I look like a bloody genie? Two wishes, then. Take it or leave it."

"Done, you thieving rogue."

And so the poacher climbs down into the bog-hole and frees the leprechaun.

"Right, so," says the leprechaun, "what d'you want for your first wish?"

The poacher thinks for a moment, then says, "I'm as parched as me maiden aunt's insides in this heat. I want a perfect pint of Guinness that'll always fill up again as soon as I drink it."

"Ah, the old everlasting pint wish, eh? Consider it done."

And a pint of Guinness magically appears in the poacher's fist. He looks suspiciously at it for a moment, then gulps it down. And, sure enough, the glass fills up again with another perfect pint and his face breaks into a huge grin.

"That's amazing," he says. "How the hell d'you do that?"

"Never you mind," says the leprechaun. "That's a trade secret. Now, what d'you want for your second wish?"

The poacher looks at the pint of Guinness in his fist for a moment, then turns to the leprechaun with a crafty look on his face.

"Gimme another one of these."

Kind regards.

Thanks for the laugh, Dave. That was a good ONE, and realistic, too. I think I've met that poacher.
