<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DAVID: <em>Latest news bleat: it is time for ewe to enter the silence of the lambs, before this pun run turns into a mare-athon. Please take it on the lamb, before I get your goat, and ram it down your throat.</em>-MATT: <em>I think David just won...</em>-Ever since I conclusively proved that man&amp;apos;s immediate ancestor was not a goat but a sheep, there has been a battle of lamb-ent wit between the pun-dits. It should have ended with David&amp;apos;s last post, but although Matt&amp;apos;s verdict is not pre-matt-ure, as I have indeed been worsted, before I abandon this text-ile explain my thinking.-Until David&amp;apos;s last post, this had been a peaceful exchange of views. However, the threat of violence from a Texan cowboy ... a mixture of Billy the Kid, Ram-bo and Duffelo Bill ... shows that it&amp;apos;s time for a peace tweedy:&amp;#13;&amp;#10; &amp;#13;&amp;#10;I admit defeat, &amp;#13;&amp;#10;Bleat a hasty retreat ... &amp;#13;&amp;#10;Back I goato my fence&amp;#13;&amp;#10;And my ewesual seat.</p>
