I ache too, but my pain is not from anything as nice as gardening, if
you caught my post yesterday, I said I was busy in the bedroom, I was,
I was looking for a lost object*everywhere* and as usual at such times
you finish up cleaning as you go, well I was looking under the
bed{doesn't seem like two minutes since I last did it}
Trouble is, I cannot get down on my knees, your told not
to,with two knee replacements, but I wouldn't dare anyway so I have to
wriggle about on my stomache and
that in itself is not easy when your on the plump side, but
try getting up from this position without getting on your
knees, especially when your on the said *plump side*
and your feet keep slipping out from under youI was
all morning at this well 2 to 3 hours till I went to look for Wilson,
believe me I was shattered by that time
cheers Jean.P.

Youch Jean. Yup, that is way worse than my self inflicted gardening
pains. I hope you're feeling better today and don't have to retrieve
anything under the bed for a while!

month cause I can't get right under the middle unless I

Most people who have seen a bat up close seem to feel that they're
cute. My mom once told me a story of how a bat once got into a
hospital where she was a nurse. She and the other nurses knew nothing
about bats, but they thought this one was so cute! They drew some
blood from a patient and tried to feed it to the bat. I'm just glad I
was never a patient at that hospital! From her description, it
sounded like it might have been a fruit bat.

Poor bat probably went and told all his friends about the horid
hospital food ;-)

That's a great story! May I ask where the hospital was? I'd
like your OK to quote that on my urban folklore newsgroup. I'm only
surprised that this one hasn't made the rounds.

Thanks in advance.

Would that be AFU? Ah, what a group that is, (or was?) with Joel
Furr, Kibo... I'd love to be quoted there, even though the bat's
voracity would be in question because it didn't drink the blood. I
hope I'm not a vector! Actually, I don't really see why this
particular story would make a good urban legend. I've heard plenty of
stories with much better "propagative" properties.

The hospital would have been in Japan, BTW. I don't know where,
though I could ask my mother the next time I talk to her, of course
(which actually is less frequently than I'd like, but ya know).
