Tres Drole

Très Drôle


     Thick as flat Earth;
     Don't dig too deep.

I’m a strange duck, I prefer Aunt Jemima syrup to Maple Syrup. I guess that makes me a bit unCanadian. Thanks for your visits Maureen.

Ha ha, I like it. Some people are pancake thinkers, a bit soft in the head and everything comes out flat.

is that why my Graveyard shift (digging graves) had the advisory: dig just 6 ]feet?

I actually looked that up! London, 1665, they thought that burying plague victims 6' under would stop/slow the spread. We're going to need a bigger hole... ;),
