Burlkraft and that youngster, Furby ought to get together.  They are at the opposite ends of the aging scheme.  One ages real show and the other is going down hill really fast. :o :D :D :D :D

Gee, and I was starting to get frantic about turning 40 in a few years...

Onya Burlkraft!!!

Expect the TV crews anytime now.

There was a thing about the 'worlds oldest person' on telly the other night, some woman in china who's over 110...  She's got nothing on you, they mustn't have heard about you yet, well, either that or they've heard how cranky old codgers get and they're all skairt of yer?

Tell us, what were things like back in the days of the pilgrims?
