Simone- I kinda don't get the Dr Who thing, unless we are talking old school, like Tom Baker or something. Cool scarf.
Sophg- I love that you even thought of mulesing! What a great job. No shower could cleanse you from that evil.
Joanna- Yeah, 'look on the bright side' should always be met with a punch in the mouth. It's only right. My worst one in that vein is 'you'll get over it'. Get over THIS!: Wham!!
Goldy- Wow. Never wanted to be anyone? I envy that own-skin-comfort..
Laetitia-Toowoomba and Germany. Yes I can see how they could be on par. Very similar in so many ways.
Chris L- Yeah, I don't like correctional either. Children should be corrected, but for adults, just call a spade a spade. Jail, baby.
Maso-I don't like 'touching base' either. Maybe it's just me, but for me it conjures an image of innapropriately invaded personal space.
Izaac-Oh, it would definitely tase better. I don't think meat consumption is bad at all, but what I think is bad is taking it for granted, and not really appreciating where its come from. Dumb consumer society!

I have one on my left ankle/calf of the virgo sign, and the inside is colored like earth, another on my right ankle of a rose...that one's starting to blur...thinking of getting is covered with another, and for my birthday i bought my most recent, hearts and rosebuds on the top of my foot...quite painful, but worth it.
