TimTams sound delicious... but vegemite!?!?!?!?!?!

Victor, shuddering at the thought of vegemite....

Yeah, I somehow doubt I'll be getting into the vegemite once I become
an Aussie. I like tim tams, like the beer, like the wine, haven't
tried cherry ripes, violet crumbles and twisties, but will stay far,
far away from vegemite!

us to take care of them.

Did you ever drop a bunch of them?



The computer at the first college I attended "spoke" Fortran, which used
punch cards. One of my friends worked in the computer lab and came up
with a program to put musical "notes" on cards shuffle them up and feed
them through the computer. Some of the compositions were pretty good,
some stank.

Ok, I'm curious. What does everyone in here do for tuna money? I know
we have some, ok a lot, of computer geeks, educators (or what passes for
one) and so forth.

Before desktop publishing was ever heard of, I was a "typesetter." There's
a
word you don't hear anymore.
More recently I managed the art department at a metro newspaper and did ad
design / layout, page layout, etc. Then my health just didn't allow me to
work
anymore.
Now I think I'm what you call a recluse.

Sherry


It's always been my aspiration to be a recluse. :)


Mine too. I wanna be a recluse.

Purrs for your allergies to clear up, Pam. I hate allergies. Selena does
too and I suspect Sam isn't very happy with them right now, either.

ROFL That reminds me of a funny. When I worked at Prudential in the 80's
we had a new regional VP. He was showing some clients around and tried to
introduce me as a "Jack of All Trades" but he said, "She's basically a
Jackass - uh, Jack-ESS! of all Trades"

ROFL!

I hear it's an acquired taste. Yowie is training Cary to love vegemite
as we speak. How's the carpet?
