Ah. Nice, spode. I was thinking the same thing as I read it. I think we actually have a pretty similar sense of humor.

tonks - please don't be super annoying. I want to like you, and right now I do. RESTORE IN ME THE FAITH THAT NOT ALL NEW MEMBERS ARE FUCKING RETARDS! WHY, GOD, WHY, CAN WE NOT JUST HAVE ONE NEW DECENT MEMBER?

Ahhh I was gonna ask if it's OK to call you "Nymph-o" but now that you've clarified that I guess I better not.

And, welcome to the Cellar! :cool:

[COLOR=indigo]Rho!! I haven't seen you around in awhile. How you doin?[/COLOR]

You won't make the inner circle like that!

Should we tell him about the gauntlet?

Rho is fine...I keep her locked in her room most of the day to teach her manners. You have to get that blackness out of them somehow!

Just locking 'em up don't do it.

You gotta cut down on the protein in the food.

Some rice, some water, mebbe a little bit of beans in meat broth for supper. Enough to keep her working, but not enough to let her get spirited.

[COLOR=indigo]No beans and rice, no fired chicken, no watermelon. They're used to that. Make them eat white stuff...like caviar or escargo. At a posh country club.[/COLOR]

Oh man, where's Nic Name?

Uh...wha'd I do? I mean, I *did* post the link to the pictures thread, but you didn't realistically think that it was good hiding place for your cheesecake shot, did you OC?

Besides, LJ is just making an honest expression of the same thoughts we've all had and were just too polite to express...except for Bruce, who is a letch. :D

Whoa. That took me a while to interpret. The first time I parsed that post, El, I took "LJ" for "LB".

Ah, but I'm not allowed a lot of beans and watermelon...high in phosphorus. :( Shoot, can't have a lot of soul food nowadays...damn kidneys, diabetes, blood pressure! :mad: :D

How would you know, Rho. You're an up town girl for sure. Don't tell me you've had to go drag Syc out of some ghetto honkytonk.:D

Word...I was on the streets...dropping dimes, pinching gangks, slanging 'cane...I had to finds me a good gangsta bitch, and now I gots one. :)

Nic is probably up in the clouds over the Liberal landslide in the recent Ontario elections, hopefully never to return here unless he is more substantive.
