    Garden of eden

    After three weeks in the Garden of Eden, God came to visit Eve. "So, howis everything going?" inquired God. "It is all so beautiful, God," she replied. "The sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking, the smells, the sights, everything is wonderful, but I have just one problem. It 's these breasts You have given me. The middle one pushes the other two out and I am constantly knocking them with my arms, catching them on branches and snagging them on bushes. They're a real pain." And Eve went on to tell God that since many other parts of her body came in pairs, such as her limbs, eyes, ears, etc. She felt that having only two breasts might leave her body more "symmetrically balanced". "That's a fair point," replied God, "But it was My first shot at this, you know. I gave the animals six breasts, so I figured that you needed only half of those, but I see that you are right. I will fix it up right away." And God reached down, removed the middle breast and tossed it into the bushes. Three weeks passed and God once again visited Eve in the Garden of Eden. " Well, Eve, how is My favorite creation?" "Just fantastic," she replied, "But for one oversight. You see, all the animals are paired off. The ewe has a ram and the cow has her bull. All the animals have a mate except me. I feel so alone." God thought for a moment and said, "You know, Eve, you are right. How could I have overlooked this? You do need a mate and I will immediately create a man from a part of you. Let's see....where did I put that useless Tit?"
  6. got distanzias on my Vigor, passable dual use tyres although some guy i read recently has had a set that slip rather badly without too much provocation on the road, and off road the BT45.s grip better on my lawn on the Rd than the distanzias igoing dual sport conti escapes are cheaper and better accordingto the members of the honda trail bike forum Merv

  11. my ride to work used to be all single track lanes and corners for 3 miles then 3 miles of twisty a39 on off the throttle all the time, the road runners seemed to work just aswell as the tt,s and aextra 500 miles was a bonus. run most things on battlax bt45,s now the honda vigor is on avon distanzias but there is a set of bt45,s in the shed for when they wear out, i jst watch ebay for unused/little used ones and grab when cheap merv

  15. fence post tortoise While stitching up the hand of a 75 year old Devon farmer, who cut it on a gate while working cattle, the rural doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Gordon Brown and his appointment as Prime Minister. ”Well, you know, drawled the old farmer, this Brown fellow is what we in Devon call a fencepost tortoise.” Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a fencepost tortoise was. The old farmer said, “When you’re driving along a country road and you come across a fence post with a tortoise balanced on top, that's called a fencepost tortoise.” The old farmer saw a puzzled look on the doctor’s face, so he continued to explain: “You know he didn’t get up there by himself, he definitely doesn’t belong up there, he doesn’t know what to do while he is up there, and you just have to wonder what kind of idiot put him up there in the first place.”
