Virtual Shopping

January 16, 2000


raisins could do not better!

and I thought I was reading all the posts and suddenly there are whole new threads (well, new to me) cuz I reset and redownloaded the NG...

so I must know... were the faggoroyes a matched set or would they be available separately?

were the half lizards half of the same lizard therein forming a full symmetric lizard if purchased and stitched together, or were the two halfs of two different lizards that would form a mismatched pair?... and if the latter, would there be compensation from the government?...

how far did the old Oriental runner run?...

does a dying cow give sour milk?

was Rev F.O. Morris also the writer of the pooper-scoop laws?

do the leather sundries actually fit the miniature Spaniards or will additional clothing need to be purchased separately?...

was the "Girl with Tits" a nude?

did the french vaseline fish smell like tuna?

was the ferrets condition a sign of the quality of care at the old hospital?...

I would have to have these questions answered before submitting any orders,

thank you

consumerably, Evan Lee Distributed

>> were the faggoroyes a matched set or would they be available separately?

>You usually find there is at least one missing. A full, mint Faggeroye

dang greedy Liechtensteinians and Bavarians...
I like their custard though...

>> a full symmetric lizard?
>See current discussion on rec.reptiles.preserved.reconstruction... I >think to
>go into the details here would be a bit off topic.

probably... unless the lizard is lonely or depressed, being apart from itself...
thank you for the further reference...

>> do the leather sundries actually fit the miniature Spaniards?

>In my own conversations with miniature Spaniards, I have found ill-fitting
>sundries to be a frequent cause of complaint. I would therefore advise caution
>on this one.

I appreciate your caution, I would not wish to add complaints of miniature
Spaniards to my critics... I've probably offended some Liechtensteinians and
Bavarians already... and perhaps a few lizards...

>For answers to the other questions, to save time I will refer you to the
>Official Stuffed Baby Alligator FAQ, currently in preparation.

I look forward to it's publication... will there be a matching set of footwear?

>Thanking you for your interest.

I hope to be paying higher interest soon,
the world bank has approved my request for imaginary funds...

honest interest, ric
