Great trick though…I’m following that link so I can get ya back next time! 🙂 Nah, I’m just taunting you. It’s my way of being apologetic. My hearing is pretty sensitive, too, which is why I snapped my fingers closer to you than to me (not deliberately, really–I held my hand out as far as I could; you just happened to be near it :)). By all means, bring your own powders next time. We’ll teach everyone to do it. Then we can all do the new and improved Addam’s family finger snap–can you picture 12 of us triggering the stuff at once? We’ll clear the building for sure. > [@](#): > > I think you had that waitress in the palm of your hand balance!

If you think that means you’re cute…well, you’re entitled to your delusions. Maybe the 'coon just didn’t see you clearly. 😃 I’m a member of the IFGS (International Fantasy Gaming Society). We’ve got a lot of overlap with the Rennies–lots of us work the booths–but I’m not actively involved with the Faire. I’m not in SCA either–my early experiences with SCAdians left the lasting impression that most take themselves much too seriously for me. If you want to email me with the friend’s name or organization, I can tell you if there’s a connection. ---

Guys, for the record, my butt has not been itching lately and my Dr. Pepper intake has stayed the same. So, I think I can officially lay waste to that theory. I should have said something last night, but I was too busy figuring out how to defend myself against Grace. I was being attacked from all sides, but was able to use my ninja skills to fend them off. Of course, that still doesn’t explain the mustard. Oh well. Now, who are we missing? Zyada, where are you? We’re waiting for your take on Saturday. ---

The coon did like the pussy I gave him…errr…uhmm…well…uhhh…but he did give it back! The guy in question would stand out in your mind. His last name is Rayburn and he’s a big guy, weighs in around 400 at about 6’0" He’s actually another friend of mines brother, but I’ve known him for years. -SS ---

Damn people. I take the day off and this thread has too many replies to read. I just wanted to say the gathering was alot of fun. Thanks to **Ex-Tank** for picking up the tab and thanks to **Grace** for the party favours. I also feel the need to say I know how to snap my fingers. Thanks for that link **Balance**. ---

No . . . anyone I get, I don’t want to have the field incomplete, as it were. I don’t how I’d live with the fact that I was with someone who’d be elsewhere if not for the sexuality of another. 2. As you’re currently debating whether or not to go after the daughter of your coworkers, I’d say Palmyra’s not in any “danger” of being gone after by you. Besides, she’s dating other guys. 3. What I thought you and Jim B were inferring is that I want you to be gay because I’m gay (which I’m not) . . . good thing we’ve got our story straight:D ---
