How do you imagine other BDers - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I was referring to the book 1984. if you want, I can make it "class of 1941" (downgrading you from "brainwashed" to "patriotic")

Orwell's 1984 was the first thing that came into my mind. I just thought, however, that you'd just come up with a random year. Although 1941 means little to me. Unless your referring to the War, witch would mean that it would be in the middle. WWII, as all should know was 1939-1945.

Oh! Unless you think I am American, they plunged into the war in 1941 ish I seem to recall from my history lessons. I am not American. I am British! And proud of it! Jolly good! Tally ho! Pip, Pip! And Bernards your uncle!

Anyway, enough of this nonsense.
Lets get back on topic.

I think it's time someone finally added this to their "guess list:"

The Barrow-Wight

Species: Opii Biggus Shnozolus "The Common Hefty-nosed Penguin"
Habits most of Antartica, eastern Argentina, though he occasionally hops a cab to slip up to Iowa for a wild weekend
Diet includes herring, halibut, young sardines, small assorted South Atlantic schooling fish, and Pop Tarts
Nesting season is in early June. Mating behaivor is mystery since he is a discreet embarrassed animal.
When he is not feeding or caring for his young, he enjoys skinny-dipping, long hot baths, reminising about the 1960s, foot massages, listening to Moody Blues records until late at night with the lights out.
Fairly liberal minded, he would be driving an used Volvo if he could reach the pedals.
I won't mention his pecuilar tastes in television.
Conclusion: The Hefty Nosed Penguin is gentle, easily influenced, yet not overly sensitive. He has a pleasant dispositon, is generally optimistic, and a welcome member of the Animal Kindom, even though he eats crackers in bed.

I hope you find this more amusing than insulting Mr. Wight.

Wilwarin has always reminded me of Loie Fuller... On stage, mystifying us with her acts of silk spinning and whirling about above a glass plate and coloured lights...

But, of course, we now know that it was all an illusion, but we still love you.

Oops, that was my second guess....Yay for cats!! Then I must assume that you have an obsession with being clean, and love to sleep.

Yes I do loooove to sleep but the cleaning thing gives me hairballs...(cough)
