... thereabouts there lurk'd
A wicked Imp they call a Poet,
Who prowl'd the country far and near,
Bewitch'd the children of the peasants,
Dried up the cows, and lam'd the deer,
And suck'd the eggs, and kill'd the pheasants.

 ^ Don't know the poet, Danbo, but I LIKE IT! Who wrote it?
You want some more? Right here on the floor? And how about you, Fauna? You wanna?
"Speak roughly to your little boy, / And beat him when he sneezes: /
He only does it to annoy, / Because he knows it teases."

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'

There are holes in the sky
Where the rain gets in,
But the holes are small -
That's why rain is thin

Starkle, starkle, little twink,
Who the hell you are I think,
I'm not under what they call
The alcofluence of incohol.
I'm not drunk as thinkle peep,
I'm just a little slort of sheep.
Tee martoonis make a guy
Fool so feelish, don't know why
Rally don't know who's me yet
The drunker I stay the longer I get
So just one more to full my cup,
I've all day sober to Sunday up.

Time waits for no one
The wisemen say
The moon follows thoughts to your grave
When we think that we hear
the glad man sing
We carry our lusts to the brave
Waltzing on corridors
of long forgotten dreams
Noticing the movement of the moon
I came upon your face
In the quiet of the dawn
Then lost it as the sun played its tune
In the moonlight
The sadness reflects in my eyes
In the new light
Dreams follow love thru the skies
On the wings of my heart
Where your face starts
and my soul begins...
Seasons turn to dust
as the dream fades
Colors show the stream left behind
I follow its trace
That your smile has left
Hoping that your soul I will find
In the daylight
Reality pains me to see
In my true sight
I awaken to find only me
With a hole in my heart
Cause we were so torn apart
and my soul waits..........

 ^I'm not sure I agree on your statement there, frenchie. I haven't seen that old movie in years, let alone quote it. However, I do have excellent grammur and spulling.
But seriously, why do they say "Ni" anyways? It has no particular meaning, except to make one laugh at the nonsense of it.  Interesting, isn't it?

All:
I agree wholeheartedly with Peter's statement. "Ni" should not be used in these forums at all. It is simply too vulgar and crude. Refer to the "civility" thread for more information.
Peace.

^I was just joking, obviously. In fact I very much enjoy "Monty Python". My friends and I watch it all the time.  I especially enjoy the sketch which includes the exploding penguin on the television from their "Flying Circus" show on the BBC (even though I live in Canada). The shows are great hits in America as well, something of a cult hit.

I recall reading a part of Monty Python about the greatest Joke ever made, all who read or hear it die. On television it wasn't really funny, but the plain text was hilarious (trully the best joke I've ever read and survived(do'h). The scene was called "The killer joke".
My dog has got no nose.
then how does he smell,
Awfull
