many are called to banjo, but few are chosen.

You must first prove yourself worthy.

Your first trial is to dress as a man in a turban, and stand on the side of the road, holding a leg of lamb.  It is entirely optional as to whether the rest of the lamb is attached.

(note for the noobs at these kinds of challenge:  three-legged lambs tend to be a bit resentful, so watch for erratic attempts at chomping your knees...)

Shane,
Ease up on the blue and white capsules, and increase the pink tablets to 1gram 4 times a day.
Woofa and I are here to support you.

Thank you kind sir.  I think it would probably work out less tiresome for all if I just went out a bought a bra, though.  Your kindness in not remarking directly as to my excessive male mammary development is, of course, appreciated.

Are you sure about the pills?  I think there may be a connection.....

Shane,
We only spoke of your gynaecomastia behind your back. We knew how sensitive you were about it so we didn't want you to know how amusing we found it. I promise not to send any more PMs about it, I'll also take down the internet site. It will remain your secret.

Ahhh Calxoddity...you may have given too much away with the banjo and leg of lamb...we found a cracker emerald/beryl today...about 1cm long and about .75mm wide...very excited. So how big was yours? Or did the lady with the leg of lamb take it?

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.

Looks like the Pacific Copper site has not changed. 
Neither has Woofa's legs  ;D

Pacific copper was great to see!  Tried doing a little research on the place and turned up very little...?   does anyone know much about this place?  The size of the operation looks massive...
