I went searching on Lj for that combination, and found gingerhobbit and what has got to be the best blonde joke ever. Sheer genius!

Hmm I wanted to see the blonde joke. I've been clicking madly and on some sort of a wild-goose chase through people's journals! I have to leave the computer now but if anyone ever finds the joke let me know! :-) Something tells me Pete is up to no good.

I'm sorry to say this, polli, but that's the joke. You click your way from one link to the next and then to the next one and so on. That's the joke. I didn't even bother clicking on the one Pete provided.

Oh well, it sucked me in about four deep. Where is this dam' joke? I'll just click on the link...

Looks like you're an honorary blonde, Pete! (I think you can add that to your CV...)

[paulaplays.livejournal.com]

I've been had! Naughty Pete! I'll be plotting a suitable revenge.

I am so embarrassed! I had never seen this joke before. I thought perhaps it was out there somewhere and I just had to keep unraveling the thread to find the end. I must have gawked at the journals of 10 strangers before I gave up! LOL!

[elhamisabel.livejournal.com]

Oh, don't worry. I've seen many others do the same mistake. I mean it took the mighty Pete 4 clicks to realise what it was all about. :-D

It must have been a hard joke to start off...

[elhamisabel.livejournal.com]

LOL! I've been thinking about this as well. The first one must have at least 10 to 15 links before he could start the joke, I'd say.

I think you'd have to have a circular path to begin. Say three links. Then you just link to any one of them and Bob's your uncle.

[elhamisabel.livejournal.com]

hehe. Or this way, right.
But then I think this is just for the record as by now everyone has such a link or knows someone who has one. ;-)

[elhamisabel.livejournal.com]

God, that's an old one. Really!

Oh and Pete...

[elhamisabel.livejournal.com]

...sorry to be such a spoilsport. But I can't stand that stupid joke. ;-P

You have a loftier sense of humour than I, Elhamisabel. And a lot more brains, evidently.

Thanks for all the pictures of the swans, BTW. I think I'm near swanned out.

But you may post as many photographs of that delightful place you live in as you want and I will sigh at the beauty of it all.

Re: Oh and Pete...

[elhamisabel.livejournal.com]

Not sure about the brains. I once clicked on a similiar joke. Granted, only on the first link and then I got it but still, it was daft of me to do so.

OK, no more swan links. But I try to give you some more pics of my area. ;-)

Oh, no, I'm not falling for that old chestnut. Again.
