If any political *scheme truly manifest its ideology... oh, never mind. WOW - I think you're correct... so there must be a very large number of people logged in that don't show their online status  . I wonder if you could request a weekly "traffic report" from the giant head... er... top dog... mmm... big cheese... um... head hancho... ... head hippo?...

this some kind of plot that everywhere I turn, I am being bombarded with HIPPOPOTOMI?
Clearly that fertile aquarian has become the mother of all posts.
And speaking of maternal pride: The tale is told of three american-indian ladies, talking one fine afternoon while seated at their labors. The first, seated on a bearskin, boasted that her son was so fine a hunter that he had killed 20 deer that season. The second, seated on a buffalo hide, countered that her son had accomplished that same notable feat. But the third lady, seated on a hippopotomus (!) pelt, smiled quietly, secure in the recollection of her younger days when, as a warrior princess and Artemis, she had personally had equal success in the hunting arts.
Proving once again the Pythagorean insight that the squaw on the hippopotamus is equal to the sons of the squaws on the other two hides.

i have being trying to avoid this sudden, compelling involvement AWAD has developed for hippopotomi.. i keep finding, like some one in the deapths of DT's, hippos where ever i look.. but now, even i must add to the hippopotomadness.
what i have found to be mesmerizing --is the lovely image of the hippopotomi ballerina's, en pointe, dancing their way through Fantasia..
not being a thin, or even average sized woman, i took it as a complement when some one said i danced, and moved with the same grace as the lovely hippotomi of Fantasia..grace and elegance are not exclusively the possesions of the young and slender..

I can't hear that music without Alan Sherman's words thereto ringing through my poor head. "Hello Mudder. / Hello Fadder. / Here I am at / Camp Grenada!" And of course, the Fantasia images further make comic the "Dance of the Hours" music. BTW, Helen, forget not that the Fantansia hippi in tuti were ardently pursued by slavering wolves.

While waiting for pages to download, I:
flick through my shelf of reference books;
stare at the person in the office across the corridor;
go to the loo;
make a cup of coffee;
get a bar of chocolate or an ice-cream;
open another window and go to a site which has long pages to read;
and if all else fails, work.

RE: the Fantansia hippi in tuti were ardently pursued by slavering wolves.
yes, keiva, but women of grace and refinement are often persued by wolfs.. fortunately, as in Fantasia, the wolf don't always win. the hippo's are not unmindful of the wolfs, but they don't let the wolfs change their behavior. as a recall, the wolf all suffer a bad end, and the hippo's continue to their dance.
there is either a distinct lack of wolfs at AWAD, (first guess) or failing that, a distinct lack of being persued. not that i am complaining, i don't post here in hopes of meeting the perfect He-ppo.

Helen, I do believe you're mis-recalling the resolution, in Fantasia, of the eternal conflict between refinement and slavering. See the title of this post.
