Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina. They have to share, since they only have 1.

Chicken Butt



I'm bored. Someone tell me a story.

Once upon a time there was a princess called talula. She lived in her castle, with her prince. She was having a baby, who was taking like, forever to be born. She was extremely bored. So she summoned her courtiers.

Her courtiers came into the great hall looking noble and stuff, and wearing the most awesome clothes ever. One of the courtiers was called Lady Lucretia.

"Lady Lucretia", the princess began, "Please put down your wine and listen to me. We need pies and firemen of the highest order, and in many quantities."

All the courtiers agreed, for who is not pleased by either pies or firemen, or a combination of both?

Um .... I have to go and dry my hair now, and consider where this story is going.

In the meantime, one of my favourites:

A kindly, old stranger was walking through the land when he came upon a village. As he entered, the villagers moved towards their homes locking doors and windows. The stranger smiled and asked, why are you all so frightened. I am a simple traveler, looking for a soft place to stay for the night and a warm place for a meal. "There's not a bite to eat in the whole province," he was told. "We are weak and our children are starving. Better keep moving on." "Oh, I have everything I need," he said. "In fact, I was thinking of making some stone soup to share with all of you." He pulled an iron cauldron from his cloak, filled it with water, and began to build a fire under it. Then, with great ceremony, he drew an ordinary-looking stone from a silken bag and dropped it into the water. By now, hearing the rumor of food, most of the villagers had come out of their homes or watched from their windows. As the stranger sniffed the "broth" and licked his lips in anticipation, hunger began to overcome their fear. "Ahh," the stranger said to himself rather loudly, "I do like a tasty stone soup. Of course, stone soup with cabbage -- that's hard to beat." Soon a villager approached hesitantly, holding a small cabbage he'd retrieved from its hiding place, and added it to the pot. "Wonderful!!" cried the stranger. "You know, I once had stone soup with cabbage and a bit of salt beef as well, and it was fit for a king." The village butcher managed to find some salt beef . . . and so it went, through potatoes, onions, carrots, mushrooms, and so on, until there was indeed a delicious meal for everyone in the village to share. The villager elder offered the stranger a great deal of money for the stone, but he refused to sell it and traveled on the next day. As he left, the stranger came upon a group of village children standing near the road. He gave the silken bag containing the stone to the youngest child, whispering to a group, was not the stone, but the villagers that had performed the magic."

OMG! I was just thinking of the this story a few days ago and have no idea why. I've always liked it too.

I know! It's a childhood story, we used to listen to it on tape and read the book.

I was thinking about using it in a lesson plan for the children in my class. We could do a little project on it and discuss what it means and what the morals are.

[Ghost]

So the moral of the story is that lying is good if it gets you what you want?

No, it's "if you want soup, get other people to do it."
