I know this is a old joke but here goes;<br />
<br />
A penguin had to take his car for engine repair. <br />
<br />
The mechanic told the penguin to leave his car with him for about two hours, to find out whats wrong. <br />
<br />
The penguin goes across the street to a grocery store, climbs into a freezer and ate vanilla ice cream. <br />
<br />
When the two hours was up the penguin went back to the garage to find out what happened to his car. <br />
<br />
When the penguin entered the garage, the mechanic looked at him and said, &quot;Looks like you blew a seal.&quot;<br />
<br />
The penguin replied, &quot;NO way, thats vanilla ice-cream!&quot;<br />
<br />
Horay for celine!]]></description>

<br />
I am an estate agent; (BOOOO!,yeah yeah; i have a river fronted property, have you?) was showing a flat on the river yesterday and the seal popped up outside the window (1st floor).<br />
<br />
The couple i was showing were so impressed they transfered a deposit to my account within minutes at a very very full price. <br />
<br />
The seal just made me a very nice fee and is single handed afecting the property prices. <br />
<br />
Horay for the seal!<br />

I know i am not suposed to feed it but have ordered an extra big fish from waitrose (delivered tonight)which i am going to leave for him. <br />

Thanks for your kind words of support Tom. <br />
I was a little taken aback to read that my credibility was shot because I dared to say on another thread that I liked Celine Dion's voice.<br />
You would have thought that I had suggested that maybe Hitler had the right idea in the 1940's!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I have been following this thread with mild, (very mild), interest.<br />
Initially because as an animal lover I found it remarkable that a seal would rock up and cavort around Shad Thames.<br />
I ventured down there at various times but caught nary a glimpse, never mind.<br />
However, the oppprobium heaped on a poster who dared to state that she found Celine Dion's voice good but perhaps went a step too far in stating the obvious about Seal's looks surprised me greatly.<br />
I've seen Miss Dion on stage, and I freely admit to liking her voice, and I have three CD's of her singing in French.<br />
To Debrajoan I would say, your credibility is not shot as far as I am concerned, ignore the criticising pygmies, like who or what you like, and never be afraid to go ahead and say so.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[The Celine Dion Christmas Album is a cause of strife in my household. Mark Steyn has pronounced it too cruel to inflict on terrorists during interogation. But that's no slur on anyone's credibility (quick edit).]]></description>

<br />
Huge lol!  FFS - That's their credibility shot then!  ;o)[/quote]<br />
<br />
I am the poster who maintained that Celine Dion has a powerful voice, and a deserved devoted fan base, whether you like her songs or not you cannot dispute her singing range.<br />
I repeat, Seal, skin disease or not, is in my opinion an extremely unattractive person.<br />
My credibilty is shot? For stating my opinion? Some of you people are so far up yourselves you must have difficulty breathing!]]></description>
