Well, I’d like to be ravished by a pirate (of the Johnny Depp variety), by I don’t want any sloppy seconds. Are there any more pirates on the Boards? ---

I’m distinctly Xander-like, and he once used a pirate costume on Buffy. Then later lost an eye for real. Close enough? 😉 ---

Oooh, my first paging! > [@Zebra](#): > > Fine! > Well, it is a bit cold outside right now. You don’t mean right now, do you? I’m wearing my dress shoes. How’s Saturday for you? Wait, I’ve got an appointment at the spa so Saturday’s bad for me. Ummm Sunday? Wait should we fight on the Lord’s day. I’m not really religious but if you are then that’s fine with me but on Sunday my Henchmen get paid double time and that can sure run up. Tell you what, I’ll have my people call your people and I’m sure we can work something out. > > We are _using_ Henchmen. Right? Only if _I_ get to use the Henchmen, too 😃 Did anyone ever see Holy Smoke with Kate Winslet (yum!) and Harvey Keitel? It has one of the greatest flirting lines ever, so I’ll send it back to **QuickSilver** “I hope that you’re heartless enough to abuse me for your own sick pleasure.” ---

Gee, you flirt with QuickSilver and you want my Henchmen. I’m sensing something here. Actually I came back to this thread to say that I think **grasshopper** has a great smirk. ---
