I've come over via Judy Croome and IRS Taxes and books .. <br /><br />and if Blogger allows me to leave a comment I shall do so - I see I can't follow you .. because that appears to be 'off' too .. <br /><br />back to Darwin and as I didn't copy my comment .. I'll have to start again ..<br /><br />seems a little insensitive to Darwin, he may have counted worms, but he did stay on the ground - I think!<br /><br />The chap drowning in the hot water - may have had a very unpleasant landing, rendering the hot water just a red herring ..<br /><br />Good to meet you - cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-10103250328355271802011-05-28T09:45:29.662+01:002011-05-28T09:45:29.662+01:00Hi, Cuban in London.

We have to stay at home minding the cave, cooking the bear steaks and stopping the baby from falling in the fire.Frances Garroodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614916006798375706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-4832233384667331022011-05-27T18:59:59.420+01:002011-05-27T18:59:59.420+01:00I agree with Jarmara on the gender issue.

Perhaps it's because, biologically speaking (and in the spirit of Darwin) we don't need so many men?<br /><br />Alis, I doubt whether anyone as stupid as that woud even think of straping himself in!<br /><br />Teresa, nice to come across another Darwin fan. It's another excellent way of postponing the writing, isn't it (ie looking up past winners)!Frances Garroodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614916006798375706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-25397450033174137362011-05-27T08:29:06.678+01:002011-05-27T08:29:06.678+01:00The Darwin Awards are brilliant aren't they!The Darwin Awards are brilliant aren't they!Teresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-41124170583549032292011-05-27T08:02:46.909+01:002011-05-27T08:02:46.909+01:00Oh my goodness - the thought of being on the fligh...Oh my goodness - the thought of being on the flight path of airliners on a garden seat!!
