J--'s Trivia 'n' Tidbits ...

Today, I want to start a new entry item ... of late the real life J-- has been sharing his pearls of wisdom and his trivial bits of information ... It's been delightful ... But I've been thinking about doing something with it ... they are different from the Overheard conversations, but worth playing with ... so today ... I want to try something new ... I dedicate this to the real life J-- and his incredible sense of humour, and the friendship and support he offers to soooo many people ... he's an awesome guy ... If you visit the real Chipperfield's I'll guarantee you'll meet him ... and I think you'll like him ...

"Poor naive girl," laughed one of the regulars. The others nodded in agreement as they laughed.

"So, about those lions?" one of the regulars tried to reclaim the conversation from where it had fallen by the way side, "Fifty times you say?? Really??"

"Pretty impressive," one of the others added.

"No wonder the lioness looks sssssoooo happy all the time," retorted the first.

J-- smiled as he ended the conversation, "I never believed in reincarnation until I read that about lions. But now, if there is such a thing, I know what lion I'm coming back as ..." he offered a sly grin as he lifted his coffee and took a sip ...
