For those of you Cellarites needing translation, "CBOL" is "Chuckled Briefly Outloud" or it could be "Consortium for the Bar Code of Life", depending. This is just in case you didn't know.

Thanks, Kit. That was a new one to me. Either I'm that old, or that new to this.

The ... uh ... refugees seem to be either trying to take over or trying to incite verbal violence.

What's up with that?

It's freaking me out. I thought I was posting a lot lately (it's been slow at work.) But this is ...

Whoa -- it's okay, baby. I'm sorry for the "rapid fire" comment. Maybe you'd like to share a little bit about yourselves? What kind of refugees are you? Do you seek political asylum?
