but what about the oompa loompas? or the chumba wumbas? or the grunka lunkas?

Wow. Talk about tales of the unexpected.

Well, no duh. The wimmens likey the candy.

I hear he could really light his Zippo.

point - European men are so romantic
counterpoint - American women are sluts

It was task he was up to

I don't remember reading about this in Boy.

Children's poetry, "Hot and Cold" by Roald Dahl:

A woman who my mother knows
Came in and took off all her clothes.

Said I, not being very old,
'By golly gosh, you must be cold!'

'No, no!' she cried. 'Indeed I'm not!
I'm feeling devilishly hot!'

I wonder what kinds of medal the give out for that sort of thing?

The Trojan Cross?
The Royal Order of the Flying Poker?

I came here for the hot pictures of Millicent Rogers, the glamorous heiress to a Standard Oil fortune; and Clare Boothe Luce.
On second thought. Never mind.

FTA: He was ordered back to the bedroom, and told to close his eyes and think of England.

Many children's authors lead raucous sex lives. Shel Silverstein got his start as a cartoonist for Playboy, and wrote Johny Cash's "Boy Named Sue".

This



leads to the this

That, next to Treasure Island, was my favourite book as a kid. I'll never think of it the same way again.

FTFA - Dahl would later complain to friends that Boothe Luce, 13 years his senior, had left him "all f***** out" after three nights of bedroom capers.


I'd hit it.

Oompa loompa, doompety-day
I've got another heiress to lay

He's got an imagination that probably betters Shel Silverstein(which is quite a feat). I bet Shel got plenty of poon in his day too.

jake_lex: Oompa loompa, doompety-day

That made me laugh out loud.

Well that is terrible! Ladyfarkers, I don't discriminate amongst you by income. (Or really at all.)

FTFA: A previous biography of Dahl described him as "one of the biggest cocksmen in America",

Thread over.

So, now we reinterpret 'The Giant Peach' with new symbolism in mind...

/dirty

Yeah, any man could do that as long as you were 6'6" ruggedly handsome, had a British accent, and a big scar from a war wound.
Farkin bastard.

/not envious

FTA: "During the course of his kissing and telling career, Dahl managed to pass on several useful intelligence titbits and a couple of purloined documents."

Freudian slip?

I'm not surprised.

Albert Einstein was a ladies man.

I wonder how many times he hit their "Chocolate Factory"?

Gunderson: I wonder how many times he hit their "Chocolate Factory"?


Well, he did have an Everlasting Gobstopper, so...

I wonder how many times he had anal sex with them.

depmode98: I wonder how many times he had anal sex with them.

thread over.

I picked up a book of his short stories not too long ago, they are amazing.

James Bond is based on Roald Dahl?

The man oompaloopa doopad-diddly-did his way across the country. I vow to do the same for all farkettes with and income over 50K.

OK...any that will give me cab fare home.

OK...any that have Heard of Roald Dahl

Give Dahl's My Uncle Oswald a read.

Oswald discovers the world's most powerful aphrodisiac and with the aid of a female accomplice uses it to seduce the world's most famous men, with the intent of selling their semen to women wishing to be impregnated by them.

I remember it being a funny book, but then again, I was 14 when I read it.

But wait! This was long before the evil 60's! Back then people were god-fearing and chaste. The sanctity of Marriage was a respected and people acted with the utmost propriety, right? It was the dirty hippies who started all the screwing around...

I had no Idea that William Stephenson was Canadian.

Will have to remember that next time some fark asswipe decides that Canada owes it's existence to the USA.

Who can take a rich woman and sprinkle her with *ahem* 'glee'?

The Candy Man can...

Roald Dahl also wrote the screenplay for "You Only Live Twice," the James Bond movie.

/the more you know

nlscb: Many children's authors lead raucous sex lives. Shel Silverstein got his start as a cartoonist for Playboy, and wrote Johny Cash's "Boy Named Sue".

Dahl's short stories from Playboy are snide and sex-filled. They rock.

Roald Dahl's granddaughter, Sophie:



/hotlinked
//Yes, there are nudes out there

Amigajoe: But wait! This was long before the evil 60's! Back then people were god-fearing and chaste. The sanctity of Marriage was a respected and people acted with the utmost propriety, right? It was the dirty hippies who started all the screwing around...

Before the 1960s, sexual debauchery was one of the secret privileges of the upper classes. It was accepted within the confines of the ruling class and the media was kept in its' place back then, so the masses never knew.

The sexual revolution of the 60s just opened it all up to regular schmoes.

He was married to Patricia Neal. She was very hot.

She had a Golden Ticket!

$50,000 a year? That's nothing.



/OK, maybe in 1940 dollars it is.

Amigajoe: But wait! This was long before the evil 60's! Back then people were god-fearing and chaste. The sanctity of Marriage was a respected and people acted with the utmost propriety, right? It was the dirty hippies who started all the screwing around...

get off your hobby horse

Apparently he was an everlasting gobstopper.

/but seriously, have you read his short stories for adults? wonderfully twisted.

Farking Zardwarks: So, now we reinterpret 'The Giant Peach' with new symbolism in mind...

/dirty

Now that you mention it, something about that book always seemed a little strange to me...

Huggermugger - He was married to Patricia Neal. She was very hot.

No doubt... I've long thought Patricia Neal was the most attractive woman I've ever seen. Damn fine actress too... I freakin' love her in "A Face In The Crowd."

did he keep a photo scrapbook titled 'the twats'?

should have thought of it earlier

and was 'The Big Friendly Giant' a pet name for something of his?

The dingleberries taste like dingleberries!

/you lose, good day sir

The_Brain: did he keep a photo scrapbook titled 'the twats'?

THIS!
