Looks like affirmative action to me. A man would have had to have worked twice as hard to get hung like that.

So…back in 1954 the cure for lunacy in NSW was to cross the River Murray…

By the 1960s subnormal children were still being neglected, luckily for me.
It doesn’t matter which body of water you cross as long as your shrink sees you walking on the surface.

Do you ha’ to mention shrinks? Wet blankets all of them!
Anyhoo, I’m crossing the River Livet from which a particularly splendid drop
of single malt scotch whiskey is distilled.

Sooo….I’ve nutted something out here. If you’re in Portugal you have heteronyms;
if you’re in North America, you’ve got Dissociative Identity Disorder…..narrowing
down this body of water to the Atlantic Ocean.

That’s because DID is probably entirely iatrogenic and they don’t got so many shrinks or screenwriters in Portugal. So the poor Portuguese have to make up their multiple personalities all by themselves instead of workshopping them with a publicity crazed psychologist who then slaps a pseudonym on your case-file and options it to Hollywood.

I was wondering the same thing about you.
The last couple of weeks have been pretty exhausting and brain scattering but I finished the pills yesterday and expect to pick up a bit over the next week or two. Hope my guts get back to normal soon.

Well….it you are in the market for some old-timey remedies, yesterday I rescued

On my goodness golly me….the treatment for CRABS. Cleanse the parts carefully with an antiseptic soap, moisten with tincture of larkspur, and use stearate of zine as a dusting powder to prevent chafing. If this does not prove effective, then the part should be shaved and blue ointment applied day and night.
D’ya think this is how the pseudo-medical condition of blue balls arose?
I seriously want to be buried with this Mighty Tome of Nine Centimetre Width, so I can thumb through it in the sweet harryafter. I have my stiff career sorted, dude, disincarnate spirit for Edgar Cayce and medical advisor to the A.R.E.

Blue ointment was the mercury-based treatment they used to kill syphilis patients with. Unless you wash it off very thoroughly you might end up with blue turk. Oh, what to do …?(right-click and save-link-as/save-to if you can’t stream this).
Feeding your crabs seamonkeys is a waste of valuable resources. A friend of mine bred tropical fish (he was also the vocalist in Jeffrey, Jeffrey, hysterectomy) but his main income came from breeding seamonkeys (brine shrimp) as fish-food that he sold to his fellow piscaphiles. Quite lucrative I believe.
And I think you only want soy sauce if you’re infested with mud crabs. Be sure to confirm the diagnosis before you tuck in though. According to Derek and Clive you might be infested with barking toads instead and they’re a protected species.
I’m told their bite is worse than their bark.
