stern as a red hot moppet
hell, yeah...i'm insane
.

my temper's hot today
cripes...papa...let's hit the lot today
my mind is fraught today
.
ooh...i'm not just threatenin'
i'm set to gripe today

Ha Ha! 555! Brings to mind this episode:
Jerry: I know, I hated those kids. In fact, I hate anyone that ever had a pony when they were growing up.
Manya: (very indignantly) I had a pony! (very uncomfortable silence)
Jerry: Well, I didn't, uh, really mean a pony, per se.
Manya: When I was a little girl in Poland, we all had ponies. My sister had pony, my cousin had pony. So, what's wrong with that?

I think, Alvin, you perfectly encapsulated the haunted, desolate feeling I got as a kid when I realized there be another pony-less Christmas ..... It's been about four years since you posted anything, but it was well worth the wait
Nice one, 5s! But the only Shetland I can think of was made by Short!!!
Not exactly a Bv-222 or 238, bur pretty dang awesome: http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i176/Mossie105/Aircraft/ShortShetland03.jpg
A "short" Shetland would be around 7 hands ;-)
Alvin verse always satisfies. Welcome back, Alvin. Hope you'll be posting more soon.
