Give me an 'L'!...give me an 'O'!...give me a 'V'!...
- on second thoughts, just give me an "E"...and a

Who doesn't like a 3-liner? (Quite a few of you don't, apparently.) Well, I'll have you know that many a critic has said of my work "at least it's in English" - and as for the great Stephen Fry, he once said of me "Vincent who?" Let's just say I supply the litter to the litterati [sic - but only at times] - ie: I write rubbish. But rubbish mostly inspired by the HAIKU, the 17th Century Japanese verse form consisting of 3 lines and 17 (5-7-5) syllables. (WARNING: flash photography and limericks)

a gagging order"...

emotion sickness...

Moving - that's the most
stressful thing in life. All things
moving: death, weddings...

Writes of Passage (17 Rather Sillybles):
'Bugger pens and pencils - here in Tunisia I use araBics'...
(17 Syllables)
There's a sign here that reads 'hors riding' (which goes a long way to explaining what that strange meat in the 'hors d'oeuvre' actually is)...

all dressed up and "know where to go?"...

"That's it, we're lost!" she
sighed. "Oh, well," I shrugged, "at least
we know where we stand"...
