Am I in a clique? Who's in it with me?

Why thank ya’ll very kindly, Mr. Zone.

Your clique is my clique, so to speak.

I’ll rush right out and buy some velcro and double-stick carpet tape-I’m sure the occasion will arise when I will realize that these are the very things I need for some reason or other.

If you say so.

Hugs-

Scotti

Well? Does anybody have one? Or more than one? I’ll join this clique if there’s at least one person with a chicken. See, I have a remote control, and somewhere in the bowels of this house is my old Lionel train, but I don’t have any chickens. We need at least one remote control, model train, and chicken between us. Then we can be:

<drum roll>

The Clickety Clackety Cluck Clique

Ok, I’ll give you a chicken, but I’m voting against that name. :reaches into sleeve and pulls out a chicken:.

Scotti said:

Get the velcro that has sticky stuff on the back. You may need to make the bond more permanent so pick up a cheap staple gun while you’re out.

And pass along any half-assed-repair tips you have, please.

Thanks, dear.

Who would have thought that all I needed to make my life complete was lots of sticky stuff, and a gun that shoots little bitty metal things?

I feel so much better.

(Wanna fill me in on your plans for the carpet tape?)

Man, how can anyone notlike the name Clickety Clackety Cluck Clique?" You have no taste, Arkon.

Gimme that chicken!

<MysterEcks stomps off to create his own clique, or maybe a new religion based on poultry>

Don’t go off in a huff, honey-

I think it is a perfectly spendid name.

And I brought you a chicken controlling the train it is riding on with a remote control device.

Will that do for our mascot?

Scotti

Oops, that was supposed to be splendid.

The Mariners are getting stomped, and I am so distraught I forgot how to splell spendid.

:(Scotti

It’s so HANDY when you need something thin and strong and cheap to hold flat surfaces together pretty permanently.

Can’t forget the hot glue gun, too.

(congratulate me on not taking the obvious flirtatious route)

Mariner fan? You from out there?

Oh, yes, I don’t know how I managed to bumble through life before someone invented the glue gun. I wore out my first one, and am working on number two.

(wails)The Mariners just lost 15-4! How can this be? How can they be so good, and then so bad?

Yes, I live about 30 miles S of the Canadian border, approx 80 miles N of Seattle. Not that I feel much like admitting it right now.

So, tell me-

How long are you going to behave yourself?

'Cuz I got to thinking about that carpet tape…

Frustrated Scotti the Mariner fan

Can I still be your friend if I’m in your clique?

sigh

I meant to sigh if I’m NOT in your clique…
But now I want to say:

“Can I still be your friend even if I type really poorly and don’t proof my posts before I send them?”

Told you, honey, once you are on my list, you can’t ever, ever escape!

Definitely diabolical, don’t you think?

Besides, I think dropzone will be happy to have you in his clique. He is a really marvelous man, and not at all territorial. About his clique, I mean.

Did you notice our name?

How could ANYONE resist being in a clique with a name like that?

Scotti

I thought you were going to bed. Glad you didn’t though.

No, I hadn’t noticed the name before posting but I ask you: how could I resist a clique with you in it?

My, my, dpr-

I must say, you really know how to make my heart beat faster.

This is really dropzone’s clique, but if I have anything to say about it, my clique is your clique.

I laminated my list, so I would be sure to keep you on it!

Hugs-

Scotti

She called me “honey!” And she likes the name! <MysterEcks blushes>

Absolutely perfect.

I’m a Pirate fan–I know all about baseball teams getting stomped.

Um, if you look at the OP I was wondering if I belonged to any clique. I had no intention of starting one. If nominated I will not run; if elected I will not serve.

But if people want to get together and flirt here, I’ll go mix some margaritas.

It is too your clique, the person who brings everyone together, no matter what the original intention, is the founder of the cult-uh, I mean clique.

Don’t be a killjoy, darlin’, you can’t back out now that we have all these wonderful people, a spendid name, a mascot, and margaritas.

Come on, now, lets go over in the corner and work on some rules no one will follow.

First rule: We promise never to call it the dropzone clique. That sound like it should be a football play, and besides we already have the name covered.

Got any ideas for rule number two?

What’s the matter, is that light too bright for you? Here, let me turn down the dimmer switch. Now, what were you saying, hon?

I’ve been meaning to do that for a long time, but somehow it never seemed appropriate.

Sorry so tardy!

Yeah, so am I, but you have to admit-this year the M’s are cookin’! Amazing how soon you can get used to this “top of the division” thing. Sorta’ makes up for all of those other years…I’m sure you will find out one of these days, hmmmmm?

Y’know, I have a corner too…

The Pirates have had their glory years. In fact, I was at the last World Series game they ever lost–Game 4 of the 1979 Series in Pittsburgh. (They later came back and beat the Orioles 4 games to 3.)

<MysterEcks smiles fondly in rememberance…and then realizes it means he’s middle aged.>

Anyway, under current ownership and small-market conditions, the Bucs have entered the long cold night. I don’t expect that to change any time soon.
