A bezoar is a ball of swallowed foreign material (usually hair or
fiber) that collects in the stomach and fails to pass thru the
intestines and is thought to be used as an antidote to poisons.


I think I still have one of those wandering around from my Parisian summer
of '68. Anyway, I've never been poisoned. <burp>

Dude! You can't be that old! I thought you were a young'un.


Thanks DM. That really felt good. Bless your little pea pickin' heart
(remember who always said that?).

I have a blurred foto of De Gaulle driving by in what was to be his last
Bastille Day parade (a gun would have missed him too). I also have a
souvenir program from the Lido where I saw Siegfried *et* Roy with their
original cheetah. Would that convince you? (And, yes, I was served
champagne.)

But I do notice that my mind seems to be starting into second childhood,
if that's what you mean. On the other hand, I would have appreciated some
sort of warning before reading about your new Barbie so that I could have
taken an anti-convulsive.

Wow! Chris is going to owe you big time for that great comment!


I kind of picture you as being very young as well. But then, I always
pictured Troels as looking like a hobbit... (Damn, I hope he isn't
lurking around here and takes offense!)

I can picture any HP fan here is still being young at heart. Preserving a
certain well mannered sense of mischief certainly adds to the fun in this
group. I like you best when you respond to something by going into
satirical HP fan-fic mode. You can be quite entertaining.

I recall seeing a photo of Troels and 2 kids somewhere in the Hogwarts
Library (http://www.hogwarts-library.net/) but I haven't been there for
quite a while. He would certainly blend in somewhere in Lord of the Rings,
but I see him more in the role of a better groomed Hagrid.

I have never seen him take offense. If ever he did, he probably just
didn't reply or he found a way of outing the offender as a cretin while
making him think he was receiving a major compliment.

He is most assuredly lurking around here.
