I had a Far Side calendar on my desk when I worked in Chile. Every day, I’d read the cartoon du jour and laugh. Every day, my officemate would ask what was so funny. I would try to explain, but — the Far Side just can’t be translated into Spanish for a rural indigenous woman who has never had a single science class in her life.

I learned quickly not to laugh out loud.

LCG – I’d have to agree with you there. It wouldn’t be the best start to the day.

I’m fairly certain that if one is having dreams about shitting in their hands that said person actually has shit for luck. Naturally.

Hee hee – thought you’d like that. Well, ok, as a scouser of repute, I’ll take it out, just for you. Any suggestions for a replacement?

scouse parlance, she says…state of her.. (said in high-pitched scouse accent..) nope. even with the accent, the stitching isn’t doing it for me..

Well, not being particularly up on Scouse parlance, I looked up some phrases. And that one was in there. So, I guess if you use a scouse accent it could work.

If the Queen was a Rangers/Celtic/Kilmarnock fan, she may say `Ay stitch tha’ pal`, but I doubt such phrases are common parlance in the stands of Anfield
