I’d rather bash the Bishop than Mangle it.

i liked that painting somebody did of Mrs Mangle, where she had a really long neck.  
You’d think Kylie would eat more, especially since with those teeth. she could chew an apple through a postbox.

I couldn’t spot cottage cheese on that rear if I had a microscope! She looks A-OK to me.

I think it was Helen, Scott’s gran who painted the portrait of Mangle.

Hold on I feel an incoming flashback of _plain Jane_. Ahhhh there she is.

She was a bit ropy in Neighbours but she was a proper ride as Mrs. Jessop in the Sullivans.

Hey, you’d practically be able to name your own price to join Calista Flockhart’s entourage.

Put me down as one that has forgotten to eat while intensely busy or engrossed in something before.

I’ll test out that theory this weekend.

Since last posting (which was in a lighthearted vein, believe it or not) I found out that my father’s in the hospital and my dog has a probable malignant and inoperable tumor.

Not that the news particularly relates to this thread or to **Revtim’s** response, but fuck it all anyway.

Sorry to hear that **jackmanni**. That would likely put me off my lunch for a while. Hope things turn out OK.

Heh, I was just being evil. I can’t forgive her over that damn song that got stuck in my head for a few months. Ach, now it’s in there again. Come, suffer with me:

_I just can`t get U out of my head Boy your loving is all I think about I just can`t get U out of my head  
Boy it`s more than I dare 2 think about_

La la, la  
La la la la la

It’s not an eating disorder if she’s making sure she’s eating.

She’s avoiding an eating disorder, or, she’s recovering from an eating disorder, or, she’s just stressed out.

Check out [www.kylie.com](http://www.kylie.com) for more pictures and video clips. If you don’t know who she is, click around for the video for “Love At First Sight.” Trust me. You heard it.

Peace.
