    Ever heard of a shrinkhead?

    I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

    Wrong part of the world, and those don't include the skull - it's removed in processing as (being largely calcium) it doesn't shrink! Shrunken head - Wikipedia[^] explains the process.

      No chance - you take your own risks apologizing to Herself! Or better, let's just not mention it to her and we can both keep our anatomy intact ... :laugh:

        In yet another part of the world people like my old father, Sergeant Major(retired), can teach you ways to shrink heads while the object of his attention is still alive.

            Apologize? What for? Is there no freedom of speech? Or at least the traditional fool's license? Help, help! We are being oppressed!

              My boss always reminds me of foolishly having brought some to work a while ago. Now he expects me to bring him some all the time.

                        I've got a 6 inch stone version of that - only 2.5Kg - which I bought in Malaysia thirty odd years ago and brought back as part of my hand luggage ... Absolutely brilliant things!

                              In most old-style armies, recruits were (are?) much more afraid of the Sergeant-Major than of the Enemy. All the Enemy can do is kill you...

                                That has not changed. The Sergeant Major's word comes right after god's. It's his job to keep about 150 enlisted men and NCOs in line and ready. For that they need to be a little more format than just being yelling fools.

                                        So, clicked a link in "Latest News" and came across Johnny J's September post in the lounge The Lounge[^] and from there found this - my must-have-this-for-work mug[^] ! They already think I'm a little strange here - may as well confirm it for them :laugh: (I don't trust them with my CP mug)
