I heard there was a lot of talk in the threads earlier today which caused some HEers to fall behind in posts. As one of the talkative morning people, I promise to make a formal apology. In several threads.

If it takes me all night.

Carry on then.

Well, have I found dirt tonight. It seems someone unknown to us knows JP a bit better than we do. Only last year JP shared with us a picture of her feet on a day her youngest said she had large feet. No one paid any notice to her toenails. They were perfectly normal as can be, the same for the size of her feet. When I was visiting her over the summer, I did not pay any attention to her toenails, which had no reason for any notice. However, now...

It seems our JP is quoted to be the best toenail grower in the world. And our JP is apparently not female at all, but I am very baffled over this as many of you must be now as well. Further yet, there is the matter that JP's toenails are longer than Queen Elizabeth's toenails and the queen is rather jealous at JP over this matter. You think you know someone...

JP's cats will be trying to eat her alive. Luckily most cats pay with their food first and then often decide to not eat it.

However, the guest cat has proved himself a mighty hunter, and we know he eats his kill, which is why we decided not to let him roam our yard when we are feeding birds. *eyes Romeo suspiciously* Nice kitty! Stay kitty...wait, why are you looking at me like that?....AUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHH!

317- Before she was Hungary, she was Turkey, you see.

Kerian's sister has only eight toes. What happened to her other two toes, I'm afraid to find out.

I don't understand how she could be Hungary after Turkey. I suppose it is better to be Turkey than Greece.

After spending an inordinate amount of time in the pub, LadyN and Suge took a shark to the Tower of London and have been arrested for treason. Now, they are in the tower dungeon . . . but fortunately, one of the Beefeaters is taking lots of pictures!

Bib has tight fingernails, and expects her rug on the window seat when she comes to visit her mom, and her chew toys right where she left them before.

Mindy has two bedrooms, both of which are overheated and need fans or airconditioning.

Contrariwise, there could be two Mindys who happen to share the same overheated bedroom.

Unless one of them is a Body Snatcher. Don't fall asleep Mindy!!!

That's just not true.

They are neatly folded, or on hangers.
