Scotland, Haggis & Sheila

For those who care, Sheila of Scotland, Loves nothing better than to bash Americans who make errors in grammer, spelling or worst, punctuation. She has corrected me on a couple of occasions when I goofed. However, there isan even more interesting aspect of Sheila. Some of you know this but for those of you who don't let me tell you about her little dark secret. <BR>Sheila raises haggis on her farm located in the highlands. Now I ask you, how can anyone raise these cute furry creatures, who harm no one, for their meat and fur. I think these warm sweet wee mythical beast should be set free and Sheila should find other pursuits. If you agree I strongly recommend you vent your concerns and perhaps we can convice Sheila to stop this endeavor.

Yeah! Everyone knows you can't raise haggis in captivity.

Sheila, I see you don't deny the truth of Dick's allegations. Well, how would you like to spend the end of your life stuffed in a tube? Repent!

Are haggis distant relatives of the "Nauga" ?

SharonM don't be silly. Have you ever seen a car with a (an?) haggishyde interior?

It may be a troll on hagis. But Sheila will ram raw hagis down your throat if you give her half a chance.

What I found most distressing is that haggis don't seem to thrive anywhere outside of Scotland. Sheila sent me a little haggis to start my own herd, but the little bugger just, well, shriveled up and took a dirt nap. Maybe it's the climate?

Named after the famed Roman general, Haggis Ahgagus (and they do!). My mother in law was an old haggis and I just could stomach her, always belly aching about this and that, a real wool gatherer. So long, lambie pies, I'm glad I had the guts to write. <BR> <BR>We cringe at the thought of the haggis, <BR>the concept doth totally gag us, <BR>to eat wee sheap' gut <BR>would take some sort of nut, <BR>with a rope and wild horses to drag us.

...ok, ok! Since you can't sit on haggishyde can you ride them or do they grow big enough? I have Scottish blood flowing thru my veins and feel I should have a better understanding of the Scottish Haggi (pl?)...

Elvira, you were hoping to start a herd with one haggis? Some thing missing here, like another haggis.No wonder it died of lonlyness.
