aha pauline i thought the same and im from australia. But another educational lesson i learnt today. Jabiru is a stork!!!

DA  has not only got a great sense of humour but she is smart too!

love annie

Jabiru is the only species of stork in Australia, and that joke just had to be made because of it.

The smart thing I did was to collect reference books so I could look up stuff like this. As for my sense of humour, I blame everyone else for making me this way. LOL

It is a poem by Lewis Carrol, from Through the Looking Glass. I can recite the first verse, I used to be able to recite the whole thing but can't remember it properly anymore. Here's a link to the words to it...

As for me spelling it with an i, that was a typo. To discover that it has an online dictionary definition, which I must say I believe it to be rather questionable, was a shock... especially considering the definition it gives! How typical though, I make a typo and it would end up being something like that! LMAO

But never the less, thanks to Lewis Carol, it is a word and it's in my dictionary. Hehehe.

Mine is portable, I carry it around with me everywhere! LMAO

I'm not going to live that typo down in a hurry am I?

I once worked with him for a couple of days... but he is human and equally entitled to have as many personality traits that annoy me as everyone else does. LOL
