The following was downloaded from the Ancient Pond BBS. Believe it or not, these two guys are STILL at it !! Dave, Seven puns in one sentence! Even I'm impressed. Lilly did I know that you had it in you. Mums the word however. There's a grass roots movement to defoliate those who plant "puns" in every day discourse. The stupid sods! I wood rather hear more puns, and less politics. They're trying to sap the life blood of this fine nation! Š Long live the pun! Ed Dave, LETTUCE stop BEETing around the BUSH. These puns are starting to GRAPE on my nerves. This pun problem is GROWING outta hand. In the FUSCHIA (I like that one!), LETTUCE stick to puns in the mineral family. Besides, I think I'm starting to come down with a COAL. Ed "...COTTON take any more botony puns... " Dave I MUSTARD given you the wrong impression. I'm all in favor of MILKING this comedy ROOTine for as long as possible. I'm just kinda in a PICKLE as my SAUCE of botony puns is running low. I CHEDDAR to think what will happen if I run out of puns. I'm going to start REEDing the DICTIONARY to SPRUCE up on my pun vocabulary. Ed "...of COORS I'll keep on punning..." Dave, AMSTEL willing and able to keep this pun-thing going. BUD its going to take some effort om my part. I mean, from PABST experiences this pun-thing has proven to be a mental drain. Of COORS I'm willing to continue, BUD it it means that I must become ever the WIESER. I have no intention of taking the BLUE RIBBON in the pun extraveganza, BUD I BECKS to differ. (Hey! Try and do BITTER!) I realize that my puns are starting to ALE, BUD what is a POUR bouy supposed to do? Its not like I have puns on TAP as you do. Ed "...not trying to FOSTER any false hopes..." Dave, I'll have you know that my sole RASIN d e'tre for logging onto this bulletin GOURD is to do some pun sparring with you. I am more than APPLE to pull my own weight in this task, even if my puns aren't so GRAPE. But ORANGE you BERRY happy to have this opportunity to sharpen your verbal skills? Admittedly my group of puns is no more than a MELONge, but what is GOURD enough for me should be GOURD enough for you. Although it takes me more time to FIG-ure out GNU puns, I shall continue to "pun" even if my reputation here starts to PLUM-met. Ed "...my PEAR-ity bit is set to 1..." David - PLEASE - I beg you!! Can the puns!!! I can't take it anymore! I am already nauseous enough these days without have to slog my way through your latest missive. If you have any heart left, please......STOP!! Erika...noted pleader ---------------------------------------- EriKa, Just want to let you know that if Dave is willing to stop this pun PUN-ishment, then I am too. Although I refuse to stop PUN-ctuating an occasional message with a few PUN-ctiliously placed PUN-gent puns. Ed "...getting a little PUN-ch drunk on puns himself..." ---------------------------------------- Ahhh, Ed, Ed, Ed... Why must you continue to be such a fruit, you nut? In pulling my legume may find that you've kumquat close to ultimate destruction. However, since I'm berry much the forgiving sort, I'll let it pass (and orange you glad about it!). What I must warn you about however, is that by acting cuke, you will never become a radishing beauty (but you don't carrot all about that, do you?). Lima fraid you may have already passed that point, and will be as I yam, a salad case of in(s)anity. Dave Wow! I could've had a V-8! ---------------------------------------- ARGHHHH!!!! No more puns!! I can't take any more! Have pity on a seasick expectant mother!!!! Please.....I'm begging you...... .........[gradual fade out]......... Oh Dave, Hey! WADDLE ya gonna do? We all gotta PIDGEON and help if we're gonna make pun thing a success. I mean, we're not trying to OSTRICHsize anyone here. FEATHER record, we don't discriminate agin anyone. I mean, if a CRANE operator wants to join the pun-fest, then she is most certainly encouraged to do so (that was SO bad...even I cringed while typing it!). By the way...did you buy a condo are you still paying HOUSE WRENt? Ed "...was trying my darndest to fit in African swallow...or even an American one yet..." Dave, I don't mean to BRAIN on your parade, but I think the current MATTER at hand deserves some attention. People here have been trying to SINUS up for some "pun therapy" at the local mental OCCIPITAL in an effort to reduce the prevalence of puns here on the board. I'm not sure who HEADs this GANGLIA of neer-do-wells, but they have some NERVE! So if you see anyone wierdos SKULLking around your home, call me or any of the members of the "Coalition for Freedom to Pun" right away! I wish I could talk longer, but I'm busy. OBLON-GATA go! Ed "...I'll let you use 'memory'...you're more lascivious than I... ---------------------------------------- Hmmm...I throat we were done with this stuff. Frankly, it's too ear-ly in the AM for me to really pun, but I'll try to stirrup some. Eye don't know if it can be done, though...I may just have to lymph across the finish line (NOTE TO ALL USERS: If you're neuron this system, this is an old topic twixt Ed and m'self). I suppose you'd be gland to see that happen, or at least find it vaguely humerous (sp?), but that's the way it is. Ulna go down easy, however...I was bone to be wild! Dave ---------------------------------------- Dave, Lemme a SPLEEN something to you! Just when I thought I was getting a LEG up on this pun thing, you go putting your FOOT in your MOUTH! I'm more than willing to TOE the line, just so long as you NOSE where you stand. As I always say LIVER and let LIVER. Keeping this going is HEART enuff as it is. I don't take pleasure IN-TESTINE your pun skills, but as LUNG as you're willing to continue, so shall EYE. In other words if you wish to continue in this VEIN, then THUMBS up from me. Ed "...will continue this to-MARROW..." ---------------------------------------- Press C to continue.....There's more to come !
