OK, where are all the "outraged Fodorites" screaming "troll" or "get this person off of here" or is this just another one of those "slow days at the office."?????

StCirq Aug 19th, 2003 12:10 PM

I'm a Pakistani ash tree. I think that's about enough games for me for one day - I just may have an identity crisis.

FainaAgain Aug 19th, 2003 12:10 PM

maitaitom Aug 19th, 2003 12:13 PM

"tasteful clothes, loudest demands" A great American tourist!

kismetchimera Aug 19th, 2003 12:26 PM

After being a United Nation ( from the Quiz) it is only natural that I Am A Pine Tree....

Marilyn Aug 19th, 2003 12:32 PM

Ash for me, and most of it fits. (I believe there are some people who are certain I am an ash.)

capo Aug 19th, 2003 12:40 PM

Hey, where's the Coven Tree?

Mine would be appropriate since I'm pining for a return trip to Europe.

maitaitom Aug 19th, 2003 01:30 PM

I have to go out on a limb and branch out with these questions.

1) Why do Lime Trees have two (Mar. 11 -20); Sept. 13 - 22) and no Lemon Trees. They're very pretty but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat?

2) Why is there a Rowan Tree but no Martin Trees?

3) I wonder if Al Gore was born between Feb. 4 and Feb. 8 because he won the Poplar election.

4) Why do the poor Oak (Mar. 21), the foresaken Birch (June 24), the solitary Olive ( Sept 23) and the deserted Beech (Dec. 22) have only one date? Reminds be of high school.

I someone could get to the root of the matter. It would be appreciated.

Tom! It's only 2:30 here on the left coast -- have you been hitting the cocktails already? Or is it the opposite problem, you pun when you're sober? :-d

dln Aug 19th, 2003 01:38 PM

I am a hazelnut tree (9/29) married to a hornbeam tree. I'm not so certain about DH dreaming of unusual lovers b-(.

BTilke Aug 19th, 2003 01:38 PM

Hmmm...based on the two quizzes, I'm an Oak Tree from Chile. I better post a message on the South American board to find out if they even have oak trees in Chile.

FainaAgain Aug 19th, 2003 01:39 PM

Mai Tai, no, Al was born on March 31 what makes him a Hazel-Nut :)

maitaitom Aug 19th, 2003 01:48 PM

" It's only 2:30 here on the left coast -- have you been hitting the cocktails already?"

No cocktails yet, just a little respite from my wacky work day. Thank God I can't fire myself!

True, maitaitom, but you can't give 2 weeks notice either. (I know.)
