Hmm...I really didn't remember those by Erik Andersson till I checked my
files. 

They were, in fact, the most recently added items and I don't

Like the sig too.. but the best line from that poem (my all time fave
poem) is "Oh frabjous day, callooh, callay!!". Twas the first poem I
ever memorised and absolutely nobody agrees with my theory that the
jabberwock is actually an innocent sweet and not a vicious monster at
all. how 'bout you? :-)

Of course the jabberwock was innocent!  It was severly put upon by that
manxone wretch with the snicker-snacking vorpal blade.  I hear the poor
creature was only done to death after uttering the words, "Let him have it,
Bandersnatch!"

I love all cute furry creatures.
