Hiya Loonies... Now it's time once more to enjoy Isaac Asimov's taste in humour, with yet another of his anecdotes... Wishes & Dreams... - ANDREA xx *********THE LOONY BIN****loonies@bloodaxe.com********* Archive: http://www.theloonies.co.uk/ ************ANDROMEDA******Internet Goddess************ ------- Forwarded foolishness follows ------- WORDS BITE Madame de Stael, a French writer of the Napoleonic period, was renowned for her cutting tongue. She strongly disliked Talleyrand who, however, could easily take care of himself. "Prince," she said to him once. "There is a new book out in which the author has represented us each of us in thin disguise. He can scarcely value your masculinity, however, for he saw it fit to portray each of us as an attractive woman." "Indeed?" said Talleyrand, with an unperturbed bow. "And wrong in each case." - Isaac Asimov Please include this information if you forward this joke: ******************************************************* This joke and others like it, can be found in: The Loony Bin http://www.theloonies.co.uk/ ******************************************************* To UNSUBSCRIBE or SUBSCRIBE email: loonies@bloodaxe.com Subject: 'unsubscribe' or 'subscribe'
