Whatever this thread is seeking, it doesn’t appear to be opinions. Off to MPSIMS. ---

Finding a way to have a sock account which is not against the rules by virtue of it being the same account is inventive. But didn’t Hal Briston already do that? Baaaa ---

Well, that’s just great! Fine and dandy! Thank you _oh, so much_! **Hal Briston** pops his head up yesterday for the first time in who knows how long to ask a perfectly normal question (“What’s there to see in western Pennsylvania?”), actually an amazingly apropos question, and some lo-count '99er starts in with the sheep jokes. Didn’t you forget to ask if his favorite dish is shepherd’s pie? How about “Does he launder with Woolite?” Or inquire whether he has a hairy ass and lots of dingleberries? Or check to see if he has a heated toilet seat and then wonder if he worries about [lamb fries](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamb_fries)? **Hal** , I feel your pain, buddy. Sleeping sheep should be left uncockled. ---

Too much Cognac and apologies accepted old man. May we meet again and tell old war stories. Did I remind you of the time in the Congo? I was almost swallowed whole by a crocodile. Fortunately Simba, my trusty guide, was keeping watch with an excellent 30 aught 6 rifle. We had an excellent campfire dinner that night. Once I was rescued. ---

Here is a gladstone note – the full balance of my mind has been returned! Included in that recovered portmanteau are all the mixwarts and badsox that I thought forevermost victims of a laundromath. Moor fuel eye! And hoot wood trinket, laughter stall? Mush gibbon palls. Ounce aghast the beard I quart – lazlo, lazlo I. The balloon is disquieted; yet all is geyser in the Easter bint. How guild it is to clam against and spray - “my mind, my mind, nethermind!” Spank YouHaul fort Turning in; the boxset of my lives dribbles yet.
