I’m pretty sure **Q.E.D.** is a she.

Well, since he showed up, I think Marley23 is one of those people where you always hope he’s going to be where you’re going. You know, you’re headed to dinner with friends, and you cross your fingers that he’ll be a part of it, because any gathering is twice as funny with his comments and asides.

Um, no…I’m 99.99% sure he’s of the male persuasion.

~hugs~ Aww darlin’, that was sweet!

If you’d like, email me and let me know how you are doing, I was wondering about you.

You got that right! 😛

ROLL CREDITS…

\*Making your way through the web today,  
takes everythin’ you got,

Writin’ some rants 'bout all your worries,  
sure would help a lot.

Wouldn’t you like to get away…

Sometimes you wanna post  
where everybody knows your name!  
And they’re always glad you came!

“Does a quack echo?” those dopers know.  
But if you ask you might get flamed.

You want to go where everybody knows your name.\*

CREDITS END

\*Scene One: The Bar. A be-suited **dantheman** stands at one end. **Troy McClure SF** is seated at the other.

The Door opens. Enter **Rue DeDay** \*

**All:** Rue!

**Coldfire** (_behind bar cleaning glasses_): What’ll it be Rue?

**Rue** : It’ll be a cold day in hell before i lose a game of table tennis to my neighbours!

\*Audience laughs.

**Rue** takes his usual seat at the bar next to **Troy**. **Coldfire** slides him a beer.\*

**Rue:** Hey **Coldfire** where’s **Gazelle**?

**Coldfire** : Ah she’s in her office again trying to think up new ways of making this place “popular.”

**Troy McClure SF** : Ah come on **Coldie** this place is popular! You got **Dan** and **Rue** and… well… me obviously. I always drink here.

_ **CrankyAsAnOldMan** is wiping down the bar. She overhears **Troy’s** comment._

**CrankyAsAnOldMan** : That’s only because we’ve never called pest control.

_Audience Laughs_

**Dantheman** : Now come on gentlemen, you may mock **Gazelles** schemes but you must sympathise with her intentions. She is only endeavouring to add a little class to our group of drinkers _amicablé_

**CrankyAsAnOldMan** : You sayin’ we ain’t get no class??

_Audience Laughs_

ETC.

So all those penis enlarger emails have been coming from **polycarp**? Who’d a thunk it.

I know I’d be a much better man if I had a penis. Probably be a less bitchy woman, too.
