    What did the board say Venise ? I, like many of us, harbor a secret hankering to sport a sandwich board, and am always on the lookout for a good slogan. A good one for Pete’s Lone Haranger might have been “Give Pete your second preference”.

    @ Andybob “sometimes it is better to just pass on smugly with a smirk”

    While quietly humming “Walk On By”, perhaps.

    @ EMC – actually fifth, the patron of a local take away near where I used to live was Charlie Costello. He might have worked wonders with vats of cholesterol but he was never oleaginous.

    I thought FD’s rendering of Peter Costello was an aardvaark.

    So, he would be first on a list of interesting animals (written in alphabetical order).

    🙂
