Before you vote, some information:
It is well known that the family of Asian and American animals, one of which is shown here
(https://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi38.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fe111%2Fgeezer69%2Fskunk.jpg&hash=d1c9d6d0cc7c261ec20ca4a924877f86)
has a gland that is used to spray potential predators when threatened with a most obnoxious odor.
The Beaver, on the other hand (shown below)
(https://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi38.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fe111%2Fgeezer69%2Fbeaver.jpg&hash=cb72a5d20643dfce63286c6e618b0535)
is an animal that has an obnoxious odor at all times. If you get down wind from one, even if you are hundreds of yards away, it is as bad or worse than a skunk's sometimes odoriferous emissions. This is due to it's obnoxious odor of the anal castor sac glands (there are two of them) with which the beaver marks its territory. In ancient Rome it was believed that burning a castor sac and enduring the foul odor would induce an abortion.
The skunk uses its scent glands only for defense.
SO THE QUESTION IS:
Which fan club would you belong to if you lived near, or even in the same county as, both of these creatures?

Women fight over anything - you should see them at a close out sale - pulling hair, body slams, kidney punches - it is vicious, very, very vicious. Who said that men were the war-like ones? If you get in the way of a woman and her objective, the French Foreign Legion couldn't stop her.
-
i know what you mean..... hell has no fury like a woman scorned
-
The actual quote is "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned / Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned."
Now, who can tell me where it comes from?
-
im guessing shakespeare?
-
Him again, oh yawn, just hate men in tights. Was it really old shakey?

Good guess, my brilliant son, but you are WRONG!!!
It is a famous line in a play and I think this famous line came from the same play.
Music has charms to soothe a savage breast
-
Being rather literate myself it is from "The Mourning Bride" by William Congreve, 1697:
As you'll answer it, take heed
This Slave commit no Violence upon
Himself. I've been deceiv'd. The Publick Safety
Requires he should be more confin'd; and none,
No not the Princes self, permitted to
Confer with him. I'll quit you to the King.
Vile and ingrate! too late thou shalt repent
The base Injustice thou hast done my Love:
Yes, thou shalt know, spite of thy past Distress,
And all those Ills which thou so long hast mourn'd;
Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd,
Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd.
-
knew it was too clever for that tight wearing idiot.
-
To which one of the above are you referring?
-
Beavers, they're smarter.
-
They are still odiously assaulting to the olfactory senses of we humans.

See Doc, OTHERS see you as the troublemaker as well as I do. Perhaps you need a psychologist - opps perhaps a colleague you are supposedly a psychologist.
I guess that this bears out the axiom that only those who need help the most go into psychology.

One has to be demented to want to study psychology

Just a referral to his own angst.

Not at all. You were blaming me for something or other that was clearly due to your own dementia.

I had it the first time, everyone knows what impudent means. I'm not ashamed of being either, it was such a poor attempt at an insult I wasn't sure if you were actually trying to insult me. Better luck next time.

Nobody's Confidant.. Can I just ask you why "confidant" is spelt "confidant" ?
I've always wondered.. I guess it's on purpose, but I'm not sure why.. Is it because your not confident you spell confident wrongly? [???]

Confident and Confidant are two different things. Unless I'm mistaken, and I probably am, ConfidAnt is a close friend. While the former term, ConfidEnt means courage.

What actually would you assist me with? Mucking out the horses? Keeping the dogs under control? Murdering the brats?
You are a very demented man(?).
What's demented about that? [???]
I think he meant my thinking about how I made the assumption about how Make it Lady likes being poked, and that she wants to be DoctorBeaver's assistant.. I think

My good Doctor Beaver, I believe we are dealing with two very confuse individuals, one quite young and one a woman - of whose gender a male can never expect anything - even consistence, except when the consistency is of the nature of being seriously deleterious to the male.

Indubitably, the verity of your statement is beyond question.

Undoubtedly, someone is confuzzled with all these big words [???]

They're not that big. I know plenty that are bigger.

So you like being poked.. And you want to be JimBob's assistant..
Worrying?
I have nothing to say. I am just an innocent bystander in this whole affair.

There is such a thing as a dictionary - I would suggest that you have your parents invest in the Oxford Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language. Mine is a monstrosity - all volumes compressed into two huge tomes (well over 50 pounds in weight) with a magnifying glass that comes with it to read the words - BUT there is GREAT news - this dictionary is now available on CD!

You obviously don't know the difference between demented and sensible.

I've got a big, old Websters with really out of date words in it. It is so useful especially when ready old poetry.
-
"...ready old poetry"? [???]
-
Sorry meant to type reading. I'm really tired tonight what with the brats being ill all week with faringitus (don't care if I spelt it wrong), the rabbit pegging it and me running around like R2D2 looking after them all.
-
Poetry and Reading are odd bedfellows except in a Slough-ish, Betjemanesque way.
-
My friend was trying to understand a very rude old poem and wanyed to know what a 'nard in the fire' was and it was in this dictionary. Can't remember if I've spelt it correctly.

This is one of the pleasures of the OXFORD UNAB. - All the dirty words and phrases since just after Chaucer - and some of the others from that era - are all included. My, my, my, were some poets rather crude- And Doctor Johnson - for shame, sir, for shame!

Apparently (according to Terry Wogan) there is a white van going around London with Beaver Maintenance and Service written on the side!

Please ring them up and tell them you know a Beaver in Oxfordshire that needs servicing.

Do you realise what this means in the UK?????

Yes. Please send them to Dr. Beaver's residence.

I think he will get a shock, especially if they take the plunger with them.

That is the whole premise of the "surprise."

Probably the same thing it means here! My husband has a beaver t-shirt that is just wrong. He's not allowed to wear it out in public with me.

I was refering to the servicing bit actually!!

Is it a PROPER beaver t-shirt?? Made out of beaver??
Im sure DoctorBeaver won't approve [;D]
-
I have a beaver hat - made by Stetson.
-
That sounds less violent that a t-shirt!
-
Not really - in order to make the felt, the beaver hair is scraped off the skin and is pounded by machines for hours to make it smooth. For a T-shirt, you just need to rip off the beaver's skin and let it bleed to death. Unless you kill it first, which is just a waste of ammunition. Why go to all that trouble for a water rat?

This is very close to the one I own. Mine is a traditional Cattleman's that is blocked like this one but the brim is not quite as wide as this one nor does the brim curl up as sharply as this one. The color is the same.
-

You would need to meet Doctor Beaver and then report to me what it was like to be felt. I am just NOT going to do that - I got'ta draw the line somewhere.
-
I bought a really comfy pair of shoes in an old fasioned shoe shop once and the assistant asked me if I would like my upper felt. It is far the best material to have inside your shoe.
Got to go doctor calls.

I think wearing a suit is preferable. I love a man in a fine Italian suit.
-

Yes, he does...but does that really matter?
-
Well I like it too! [:P]
It's very.. interesting!

But a suit is interestinger (word of the day)

I like suits too, but also like jeans.....or even nothing! [;)]

Jeans and a simple shirt does it good! [;)]
Not sure about the nothing one too..
How about painted pants?
-
I've heard of paint your wagon but never paint your pants.

IT was in a simpsons episode. NEVERmind.

Watch out or we will put you in Homer's donut box. He eats whatever is in there, doesn't even look, just chews and swallows.

I will be cautious..

Men have asked me to do a homer before now. I understand what they were asking after this.
-
If they have asked you to do a homer, you should be able to do that without batting an eye - it means to do something incredibly stupid - not something that would be a stretch for you.
-
I'm too old for anything to be a stretch these days. Everything stretched years ago.

They can teach you how to tie them in rather intricate knots in Japan.

Normal for him

There was a message from you earlier on with a picture that wasn't open. It has now gone. Either I imagined it or the manic editor is on the loose.

A sofa! Is this the start of one of those kinky question and answer sessions.

No... JimBob isn't here to ask the questions.

I just did ask in the mod's forum with all the details - I saw the post myself - PM to follow.
