Who's saying that? Who exactly is saying "Really I'm fine"? Is it the wooden placard itself? It might be. And is it just using a picture of the upside
down cow to ironically express itself? If it is, is the placard even capable of changing its mood? No it isn't. It's ALWAYS not fine.
If it's the cow (actually a representation of a cow) who's saying it, how did it transfer it's message to the placard itself? Clearly the cow is not
fine, but how did the placard know that? Maybe the cow made the placard. But that's impossible because the cow is just a picture of a cow and is
itself inside the placard.
We must conclude that it was the person who made/bought the placard who is he or she isn't fine (by saying they are fine and juxtaposing it with a
dead/inoperable cow). But then the placard should say: "Really...the person who bought/made this is fine" to avoid any possible confusion that may
occur. I'm going to send a letter of complaint right now.

It's pretty obvious what it means. I think you've been studying too hard and it might be time you got some sleep.

Ha! I was being facetious. How hot does it get in France in the summer Aqua? Does it depend on where in France you are?

Answering for Aqua, having spent 12 summers in France:
Sometimes hot, sometimes wet, sometimes with forest fires. The south is hothothothot! Many Dutch tourists, very annoying.

And of course, you wouldn't want to be a member of a club that would have you as a member.

The main reason why Dutch are annoying is you can understand what they say, how much trouble they have with cultural differences of the hygienic kind
and all that.
Unless you go to a camping with an ANWB sign, where unvariably the most annoying "things for Dutchmen" happen. Like bilingual bingo, though it was fun
hearing the lady translate 42 as 24 and getting in trouble afterwards. Or disco.
But the worst we had was when there were 2 vacant spaces with a small hedge separating them, right across from our tent, and a Dutch mother and 2 kids
decided it would be fun to play VOLLEYBALL there, which of course was accompanied by heavy discussions on the regulations and on whether a ball was in
or out.

I'm happy this turned out well. The table is now purple with the pastel crayons. Nasty stuff, that is.

Today I had a rough day on the round, being very tired. As I went home, I was cycling too close to the side of the road, and as my knees tend to bend
outward when I cycle (bicycle is too tiny), the inside of my right knee hit a tree, causing me to fall on the ground. OUCH!

Not fast enough to break anything. But I did lose some top skin, leaving those little blood spots.

Don't worry, Punky. I'm happy I'm "back to normal", with no more PMS or hitting people.

We managed to get the table working!
 Better yet, I was right about it! My dad and I were having "different
opinions" on what needed to be done to start it in game mode. I got fixed on the 3 loose wires below the board and dad believed it had something to do
with something else. But it was one loose wire.
I did manage to get a ball stuck in a place where it shouldn't be...
