Or is it a permission to Wibble thread? Who knows?

If I had to define Wibble as used on J2Ski, I think I would say it's amusing nonsense. But I reckon there has to be no nastiness in it, explicit or implied.
And, generally speaking, when I am Wibbling there is also some educational content (if you look very carefully) - because I'm always interested in finding out about new things.
So, for example, I was wondering to myself when Wibbling first started and I thought of Edward Lear and his nonsense poetry, like 'The Owl and the Pussy-Cat' which was written in 1871. And I looked it up and discovered that he started to write a sequel to this, about the children of the marriage, which goes like this:
Our mother was the Pussy-cat,
our father was the Owl,
And so we're partly little beasts
and partly little fowl,
The brothers of our family
have feathers and they hoot,
While all the sisters dress in fur
and have long tails to boot.
And I realized that it's a very good way of describing J2Skiers and the way we all vary so much :lol:

I have heard that Iceman evens wibbles when he is eating or drinking. Perhaps he even wibbles when he sleeps :D
