Hi, I'm soon looking to walk the length of hadrians wall (70miles long wall in uk that used to split england from scotland) dressed as a mexican with an inflatable donkey to raise money for a friend who going to do aid work in south america.  Anyone know where I can get an inflatable donkey from and anyone heard of other funny ideas to raise mone along a similar wacky vane but easy to organise and possibly a task that can be completed during this walk?

Is this homework? If so perhaps cracking open the old textbook would be of help.\n\nAs for the question about walls - think of where the Minoans live . . .

My favorite (and the longest one I know) comes from the Middle Ages, and is in Latin.  Saint Martin was travelling through France to Rome.  While on the road, he encountered the Devil, who began to tease him relentlessly.  After a few miles of this treatment, Saint Martin was so incensed that he beat Satan with his walking stick -- upon which Satan turned into a donkey.\n\nThis is why it's accurate to describe the devil as a French A**.  Just kidding.\n\nIn any case, upon his transformation, the Devil cried:\n\nSigna te signa; temere me tangis et angis;\nRoma tibi subito motibus ibit Amor.\n\nThis is a palindrome, and means "Make the sign of the cross and do it again; you vex and bother me without reason.  Soon you will reach Rome, the object of your wishes."  Seeing a ripe opportunity, Saint Martin jumped on the donkey's back and rode him to the Eternal City (and the donkey became Pope!  Just kidding).\n\nTo this you might reply: "Devil never even lived."  As for the author, he was distracted.  "God, a red nugget!  A fat egg under a dog!"  -- this is what I heard he said last.

I got this on lockdown.  I went to Rome this summer.  The clothing was similar to what we have over here.  The people are very nice and most speak a little English, enough to make a transaction.  Most people drive cars that would make a Camry look big.  I saw no trucks or SUVs at all.  None.  Little cars and mopeds are the most common.  I would take a bus or walk if you can b/c the traffic is horrible and gas is even more expensive over there.  People have the same kinds of jobs we have.  Places of interest include the Coliseum, the Forum, the many churches, Vatican City, Trevi Fountain, and the Victor Emmanuele Monument (AKA the Altare della Patria).  If you need more help, e-mail me at mattpytlak@yahoo.com and I give you more info and pics.

clipped from www.wisegeek.com\n\nFor sheer length you can't beat a female Giant Walking Stick (Phobaeticus serratipes). Found in Malaysia and Singapore, looking like an assemblage of twigs, it is perfectly camouflaged among the branches where it lives. The longest specimen on record was an amazing 21.8" (55.5cm). Some people even keep these huge insects as pets.\n\nThe Giant Walking Stick may be long, but it doesn't have much mass. For that you have to turn to the giant scarab beetles. Among them, entomologists have settled on 5 contenders:\n\nThe South American Longhorn Beetle (Titanus giganteus) of French Guiana makes perhaps the most impressive showing with a body length over 6.5" (16.7cms).\n\nA shorter but far thicker competitor is the Acteon Beetle (Megasoma acteon) of South America. Males can grow to 5.3" (13.5cms) long by 1.6" (4cms) thick. \n\nThe Elephant Beetle (Megasoma elephas) found in Mexico and Venezuela has a shorter body than the Aceton, but a longer snout, making its total recorded length 5.4" (13.7cms).\n\nBringing up the rear are two species of Goliathus: regius and goliatus, both measuring in at 4.3" (11cms).\n\nIn 1874 the Rev. J. G. Wood published Insects Abroad, in which he claimed to have in his possession a 9" (22.8cm) South American Longhorn Beetle (Titanus). A specimen this large has never been documented since, and no one is quite sure what method he used to measure the bug. Therefore the accepted recorded length remains at 6.5" (16.7cms), which still leads the top five contenders.\n\nAlthough the Giant Walking Stick and scarab beetles win for length and mass, for sheer weight you'll have to turn to the giant wetas (Deinacrida heteracantha) of New Zealand. A pregnant female can top the scales at over 2 ounces (71gms)! \n\nThere are well over 1 million insect species known, with an estimated 10 million still undocumented. However, the title of world's biggest insect remains a matter of what constitutes "biggest" to you: length, mass or weight!

He can chase you for 100 metres but not 100 yards. If they are french onions then there are no guidelines, but if they are uk onions, then he would have to stick to very strict rules and not  carry them around in pounds. He can't sell the burnt chickens if they were burnt here, but he could export them to romania and then could buy them back.

I don't know if you have heard of this fantastic show called "Most Extreme Challenge". Well for those of you unfamiliar with it, it is a game show in China or Japan, where contestants perform this crazy stunts. We could something like that in addition to the wall idea. If nothing else we could get a good laugh.

I think the second time around the man should pull his waist line out for the donkey to actually see. How could the donkey see if the man was whispering in his ear? I know it could be implied it was done afterwards but the joke would run smoother if it were rewritten. Still not a bad joke. It's been a while since I've heard it.

Compare it to other pagan religious sites, or other monolith collections (Easter Island Statues).  It's also keyed in to the Spring Equinox, right?  What other structures around the world are keyed in, and from what period do they date?  Learning about the other sites, especially the ones with recorded purposes, will give you a better idea of what Stonehenge may have been used for.\n\nAnd always remember to double space, have wide margins, and use a large font...

You can run but you cant hide....why did you run if you didnt do it? if you really didnt do it, then you are totally screwed man, once the coppers catch you, you'll be in for a long long time....\n\nLet me tell you a story;\nDonkey in the well\n\nOne day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided the animal was old, that the well needed to be covered anyway and that it just wasn't worth retrieving the donkey. So he invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quietened down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well and was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up. As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off! Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. \n\n\nDo you get me mate?

I haven't used this one yet, but have spoken to those who have, and  it has worked well for them (if you're looking for financial prosperity)\n\nWhat You'll Need:\n\n    * 5 new coins in each denomination (pennies, dimes etc.)\n    * 5 each of the following spices/seeds:\n    * Dried corn\n    * Sesame seeds\n    * Cinnamon sticks\n    * Cloves\n    * Allspice\n    * Pecans or peanuts\n\nInstructions: Place coins and spices in a glass bottle (an empty spice bottle works well). Shake for several minutes to combine the ingredients. While shaking, repeat the following: "Silver and spices, Copper and grain, I need to increase my money gain." Keep the bottle near where you usually store your purse or wallet.\nWhen to do this spell: For best results, do this spell on a Thursday during the waxing moon phase.\nTip about the coins: If you're Canadian, you can omit extra large coins like loonies or twoonies if they won't fit in your bottle. Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters are sufficient. Same goes for other countries with particularly large coins.\nMy Experience with this Spell: I recently tried this spell, and it was more successful than I would have guessed. You can read more about my own spellworking experience with the money bottle spell.\nHere is a Midsummer Ritual for a Solitary:\nBefore the rite, make up a small cloth pouch filled with herbs such as lavender, chamomile, St. John's Wort, vervain, or any of the Midsummer herbs listed in "An Herbal Grmoire." Mentally pour all your troubles, problems, pains, sorrows and illnesses, if any, into this petition as you construct it. Tie it shut with a red string. Place this on the altar for use during the rite. The cauldron should also be there or nearby. Even if you use candles to mark the quarters, the red candle in a holder should also be on the altar. For outdoor rituals, light a fire - however small - and drop the pouch into this.\n\nArrange the altar, light the candles and censer, and cast the Circle.\nRecite the Blessing Chant.\nInvoke the Goddess and God.\nStand before the altar and say, with wand upraised:\n\nI celebrate the noon of summer with mystic rites.\nO great Goddess and God,\nall nature vibrates with Your energies\nand Terra is bathed with warmth and life.\nNow is the time of forgetting past cares and banes;\nO firey Sun,\nburn away the unuseful,\nthe hurtful,\nthe bane,\nin Your omnipotent power.\nPurify me!\nPurify me!\nPurify me!\n\n\nLay the wand on the altar. Take up the herbal petition and light it in the red candle on the altar (or, if outdoors, the ritual fire). When it is burning drop it into the cauldron (or some other heat-proof container) and say:\n\nI banish you by the powers of the Goddess and God!\nI banish you by the powers of the Sun,\nMoon and Stars!\nI banish you by the powers of Earth,\nAir, Fire and Water!\n\n\n\nO Gracious Goddess,\nO Gracious God,\non this night of Midsummer magick\nI pray that You charge my life with wonder and joy.\nHelp me in attuning with the energies adrift on the\nenchanted night air.\nI give thanks.\n\nReflect upon the purification you have undergone. Feel the powers of nature flowing through you, washing you clean with divine energy.\nWorks of magick, if necessary, may follow.\nPart take in the Cakes and WIne ceremony.\nThe circle is released.\n\nAnd for a small group (4)\nThe South Warden opens the Circle.\n\nSouth: Now is the time of summer, when the heat steams from the earth, the lakes grow warm, and the breezes bring heat with them, as well as rain. I invoke the warden of the South, Paralda.\n\nWest: Now is the time of summer, when the rains fall hot and bring with them heat and making the air wet, soaking the earth. I invoke the warden of the West, Nixsa.\n\nNorth: Now is the time of summer, when the heat makes the earth shimmer under our feet in the air, and the rain steams from the ground even as it hits. I invoke the warden of the North, Ghob.\n\nEast: Now is the tim

try www.bbc.co.uk.  Although, I would suggest going to your library and borrowing their copy of the movie Walking with Dinosaurs or Allosaurus.  It took me almost a year to convince my 4 year old that dinosaurs no longer live after she saw them.

*laugh* I'm sorry, but this struck me as funny. I'm not sure if you're serious or not. But try http://www.beliefnet.com, maybe the Belief-O-Matic (First link on the top left) will give you a starting point. \n\nYou don't have to travel. The Gods are everywhere and in all of us. It is simply up to each person to select which one(s) to pay homage to, or not.
