Hey, there, **fizzygoodmakefeelnice** , how are ya this fine morning? No point in guessing me coz I’m about to head out to the barn of 30 horses, five ponies, three goats, one mini mare named Whitney, one mini donkey named Dudley, two rabbits up at the owner’s house, assorted cats, and the raccoon that raids the grainroom. The wild turkey, named Tommie Girl, is still, alas, dead. An ex-turkey. Pining for the fjords of Massachusetts. But she lives on in my sig. ---

Good morning **EddyTeddyFreddy**. Have a good day with your animals, you are so lucky! I am suffering this morning from not being able to sleep last night. And I’m mourning for that wild turkey. I’d got dibs on that, you know. Hmmmm, is anyone playing this game anymore? **Angua** are you around? ---

_Laugh In_ and _Star Trek_ are the two shows I watched in order to learn human customs and languages. Relativistic physics are funny, if you ask me. (Hi, Angua!) **Chronos** ---

I just have lots of nasty work do to. ☹ **NoClueBoy** , relativistic physics is hard. Very hard. I know, I do it a lot of the time. But its still hard, even though I got the top first in Part III Tripos on my general relativity exam.
