oh, mr chancellor? jed's being cryptic again, but in this case, I
think you could translate for us. Help!

You thought *that* was funny?
no, I didn't. and in translation, it was clearer that it was less
amusing than it might have been. (department of "better to be silent
and thought a fool than to open your mouth and prove it")
but I wasn't sure, hence my request for clarification

I meant, and I'm sorry if it was unclear, if *any*one thought the
cartoon funny. Then again, I don't like lutefisk.
We still haven't gotten to the bottom of the pearl issue. Although
Pearl was one of my grandmother's names.
Then again, as the much revered Dame Gwengolyn noted, if it was good
enough for Tsarina Alexandra (who would easily qualify as an Oriental
despot) I suppose we could make an allowance for a certain Canadian panda.
