Tell my story why don't you...

I lived with the circus as a kid.. it was hard work but still a good memory..

As a young man I hitched through the States a few times and always ended up inthe hills with vets like Jack...

The country wasn't that bad, especially in Oregon and Northern california where most vets ended up - maybe with a VW microbus and copious spliffs and some redwood bi-products - many had come via haight Ashbury in SF.

Paranoid maybe - but good guys;)

Lard-
Rendered and clarified hog fat. Lard is richer than many other fats, and makes suberbly tender, flaky biscuits and pastries. The drawback is that 1 tablespoon contains 116 calories, 13 grams of fat and 12 Mg of cholesterol.
Good lard melts quickly and is free from disagreeable odor. Pure lard (99% fat) is highly valued as a cooking oil because it smokes very little when heated.
Some people even suggest it could be an aphrodisiac.
This site http://www.cockeyed.com/inside/lard/lard.html has an faintly amusing story about lard.
Let me know if this is enough on the lard front?

Cheers

You've hit the proverbial on the wotsit,most of these bloggers think they are part of some close-knit club.
Some of them are deep thinkers (teeheeteehee)
The majority are mad.
I am no different.
G'luck.

Well that's true. However if it works properly there ought to be various different stories emerging, which I would split up and see how they develop. Of course the major problem would be getting people to actually contribute. I think I had had a few too many Guinnesses when I wrote the last post. We shall just have to wait and see I suppose. Although I in fairness I haven't gotten round to telling that many people about it yet. Only time will tell. Thanks for being a good sport anyway.

I could post a new word each day although I think this would be cheating and besides it would take approx 2 years to get a decent story (modesty prevails).
