OK, you asked for it. I'm licking my chops........

 

Then do join in and please enjoy yourself....that's a prerequisite. We welcome slightly warped humor. Nice to have you amongst us.

 

You're going to love QM2....as the originator of claw marks in the carpet left when being dragged off repeatedly, I can assure you of that.

 

Oh, and by the way, a napkin works better for cleaning those chops...;)

 

Cheers, Penny

 

Penny’s Affair to Remember QM2 Review

http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=471053

November 10,2007...the “Affair” continued...did it ever!

 

October 16,2008...the “Affair” goes transatlantic as we sail in tandem with the grand QE2 on her final transatlantic voyage...what a thrill!

 

December 9, 2008....the “Affair” resumes again....Life is good!

 

July 30, 2009....transatlantic again...some “Affairs” just get better

 

August 7, 2009....the “Affair” goes on...this time “home” to Norway

 

Feb. 7, 2010....the “Affair” takes a sunny detour when Penny meets a Princess

 

Aug 14, 2010....the “Affair” returns to Norway, all the way to the top!

I wonder if he's realized that you're a megalomanic CAT.:eek:

 

Cheers, Penny

Our discussion has drifted far from the tie/cummerbund question I asked, but it's fun to share, so I'll ask: Wasn't Mark Twain accepted outside our savage soil?
Yes, and (back on topic!) Mark Twain had interesting opinions about what to wear. Here are a couple of examples.

 

Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence in society.

 

You see, when a man gets to be 71, as I am, the world begins to look somber and dark. I believe we should do all we can to brighten things up and make ourselves look cheerful. You can't do that by wearing black, funereal clothes.

Sebastian and Mark T didn't see eye to eye then? :D

Nonsense, Mark Twain also said "I simply can't resist a cat, particularly a purring one. They are the cleanest, cunningest, and most intelligent things I know, outside of the girl you love, of course." And Sebastian always purrs during photo ops.

And an English Gentleman knows to make an exception for Americans.

 

Still feeling a bit peckish about lost of Empire, I see. And then having to play lapdog to all those unappreciative and truly ignorant Colonials. John Bull we feel your pain. "When can their glory fade..all the world wonder'd."

You're pushing an open door here, I defer to no one in my love of cats.

 

I was just referring to S's rather fetching formal night outfit in your avatar. He seems to favour the more traditional black approach. He bears a staggering resemblence to Lord Stanley when seen from the front although I know that they are actually very different.

The only good cat is a dead cat.

 

Lord Stanley and Sir Martin desire me to commend to you the thoroughly amusing tome "Cat's Revenge : More Than 101 Uses for Dead People" by Philip Lief. By one of those rather bizarre coincidences that come up now and again, a copy can be obtained from Zarak Books, Norwich, UK (the address is not a joke - you can draw your own conclusions).

Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash.

That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat, it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat. Mark Twain

Nonsense! We still have the Falklands!

 

"Morrisons for Me," you gave as good as you got this afternoon. What an entertaining way to spend a boring afternoon arguing inconsequential things as if these "old grey cells" could function as they once use too. Bravo! and your Falklands islands are an attribute to the Empire. I've been there and they are wondrous and charming.

Hiding from Morrisons For Me, in case I end up on the deli counter:eek:.

 

Sir Martin

 

I thought that had been tried already...and unfortunately failed...:rolleyes:
