SLIGHTLY ODWAY...

well i'm really sorry kaye, i feel so bad, i only just read the post you wrote ages ago asking "exactly what would a turtle look like without a shell?". this image has been amusing me for a while now. i think it started about the time that howie first introduced me to blogger. ahh yes, there's the old blog i used to have ages ago.
you see, you would expect a turtle to be a yucky browny colour inside their shell, but my pondering has led me to believe that this is not the case. they are actually a incredibly bright yellow colour with purple dots and red stripes. completely unfashionable. because of the horrible colour clashing and the disgraceful patterns, the turtles would feel much out-of-placeness at the sushi ball without some kind of coverage. they also attempt to hypnotise us humans into believing that they have a saggy, wrinkly skin under their shell, but no! i am not so easily decieved. they are infact as hairy as jeremy jack's legs (it is possible that people will not know this person, so just think "right, bloody hairy"). they hide this hair because they dont particularly enjoy nugees and hair-pulling fights. also, their flippers are not long enough to comb the back hairs, and they choose not to look like the carpet men that seem to congregate around the beach.
turtles are shy ok, they just don't like being the centre of attention. so they hide away...

yes, turtles are a deceptive bunch...
