Quite probably that's the answer to the beard dilema. The other possibility is that he had a freak genetic condition that caused him to look clean shaven at all times. Whilst we are discussing Tarzan, why oh why did he name his chimpanzee cheeter? why not chimpanzee, or chimp? quite strange. If he had a pet cheeter would that have been called chimpanzee or chimp?

Perhaps cheetah was/is the native name for a chimpanzee
I think the beard issue was a result of the same anomaly that caused discontinuity in many 60s US TV prog; like the two bods in Time Tunnel - didn't matter what clothes they were wearing when they were cauight up in the time vortex, they would invariably be in roll-neck sweater, jacket and slacks when they fell out the other end again....

Last thought on Tarzan - who was the connection between Tarzan and Starsky and Hutch?

On a similar note - is there another word for 'Thesaurus'?

"Winston {Churchill} your drunk" -" Yes Madam !! - but you're ugly - and I will be sober in the morning"

Just had another random thought on a different track this time. I've suddenly realised that I hardly ever "tune in" to the Readers' Portfolios  these days ... I think I'm just fed up with it. Is it just me or is it not the same (as much fun) any more ?

Ah! The good old floppy. When I upgraded to Windows95 had to backup Windows 3.1 onto twenty odd floppy disks and label them all.

I don't like it when Dentists call their business a  "Practise".

Or is that why it hurts when I've been?

:(

If we're not supposed to eat animals, why do they taste so nice ?

Neither do I. When they live in the UK they should adopt our spelling i.e. practice.

Talking of dentists, why is that we go to suffer pain, then pay our hard earned cash for the experience, then say 'Thank you' as we leave. ????????

As this is a time for those of a religious nature......if god is this omnipotent/all powerful being, too intelligent and powerful for us mere humans to comprehend....would he/she/it really be bothered about petty things like what humans wear or eat.......and be as hung up on sex as most of the churches seem to be.......?
