Hey, good !
If a bit less poetic than the original ...
I guess I'll have to find something more tricky !

What? That was actually close? You gotta be kidding. LOL I was thinking you were gonna tell me it was a poem about trees.

Donut, I've seen the London Bridge! I was stationed near there(Yuma, AZ). It looks funny in the middle of the desert!

It must look pretty silly. Nice of you to take it off our hands though

I stayed overnight in Charlotte once after a few nights in Asheville NC. Great mountain scenery.

By the way LoA. How did you come by your title? Did you buy it, because I am the true Lord. Perhaps I'll throw down the gauntlet and if you pick it up we can have a virtual drinking duel.

It's in Icelandic Tobes. My native language and it's a relatively nasty thing to say to people!

Well, I'm afraid that I'm gonna have to ask you to translate that one for me then, cause my program doesn't cover Icelandic. If it's too baudy, you can e-mail it to me.

my outlook program doesn't like me at the moment so I'm gonna put it here:
Don't read if easilly offended.
.

..
..
.
.

.
I mean it, stop scrolling!
.
.
.
.
.
.
Ok here goes:
A raw translation would be:
"Jump into your asshole and have it shitty!"
It would probably sound better someway like this: "Put your head up your ass and have it shitty" but it doesn't say that!

Don't start yelling now because I did warn you!

This preceeding program contained extreme scenes of violence and should not have been viewed by younger children.

Hahahahahahahaha. I about fell out when I saw that. No wonder that my program had no clue. Even if it could read Icelandic, cuss words aren't in there. At least not that I've seen. Odd thing that, cause it does have a Robbie the Robot text to speech program that I can get to say cuss words though. I gotta get the speech packs so it will talk in other languages. Only does English right now. BTW, I did get the C3PO remark before, sorry didn't say anything, was time restricted. And I do understand BOCHEE (sp?). It's a derivative of machine language code. Uses Tri-Ebcdic.

Donut, I'm on beer # 4, hope your keeping up! So what were you up to in Asheville? I've gone through there a couple times and it is nice.
