Rob: You otter be ashamed! Now you’ve given PETA something to stew about! What is your beef with them? (And why am I suddenly so hungry?)

Rob’s recently listened-to songs:

"Thank you very much!  And don’t forget to tip your waitresses and bartender when you leave.”

Why do I suddenly feel so gay…

I think Rob hates me… I mean, just look at the pic he took of me!

What’s going to happen to US industry when the global warming extremists like John McCain double the price of electricity?  I would think all these factories will close and set up in countries where they aren’t scared of technology.

::EH HEM::  Why do I feel so heterosexually-challenged at the moment?

Oh, that’s right, proximity to San Francisco…

I think Rob hates me… I mean, just look at the pic he took of me!

Would that be Emmet Otter or the carnivorous aquatic mammal?  If the latter… a bit like puppies in a blender, I suppose.  You’d have to ask Glenn Reynolds, no doubt he’s tried them already.

And then I eat their lunch.

R108,

Darn right, there are.  And though we’ve had sew much fun with this, we’ve still managed to needle the trolls who passed by, going to tit for tat with the best of them.  It may seem complicated, but really its pretty thimble.

B1: Are we through with this thread?

Trolls. It’s what’s for breakfast!
And then I eat their lunch.

Cutting remarks?

My Dad has an IQ of 148 or so, a true photographic memory and an undergraduate degree from an Ivy league school which he completed in three years, without ever opening a book, according to my mother.

When I was growing up, this was one of his favorite dinner table amusements, and of course he never lost (except when he intended to.)

Thank You!  I’ve not had such fun in a long, long time.

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

You guys crack me up.

Who knew that punning was such an art form.
