:suddenly dopers look towards the horizon about an inch below where sea meets sky. Right at the edge where the water turns silver.:

Did I just see a fin?  
Dunno, I think I saw a shadowy outline out there.  
Should we worry?  
Let’s just wait and see.  
:Jes’ bidin’ my time.:

We could, of course, frustrate you and kill the thread here.

We’ve already acheived my Dope-A-Ween stated goal of 10 pages.

How 'bout a show of hands for who wants to frustrate **Spritle**!

I find it positively confusing that I, who wore all of a flimsy tanktop and boxers for a goodly portion of the night, do not have a cold.

I would speculate on the reasons for this, but decency again prevents me from speaking more.

Hell, I wore a just barely legal get-up, and I’m perfectly healthy. Been slipping **Bluesman** the tongue and everything.

Woo! 11 pages here we come!

And I’m not sick. Nor is baby Kate.

Here’s something for you guys.

Can you believe that my neighbor Susan…

This woman:

[http://www.wooleysark.com/ween2001/graphics/102701-56p.jpg](http://www.wooleysark.com/ween2001/graphics/102701-56p.jpg)

is 7 and 1/2 months pregnant in this shot?

Baby Jessica in that picture is 14 months old and Susan, because she’s breast feeding, never got her period back.

Or so she thought. They just told us yesterday.

How’s that for a kick. No idea and then BANG! 6 weeks to prepare for kid mark two.

And I made fun of them asking when they were going to kick out another one.

Life’s funny that way, isn’t it?

Hi **JC**.

Just doing my bit to get you to 11 record-breaking pages.

Y’know, it’s Thursday and I’m feeling fine. Guess I didn’t get any of the germs **bouv** was handing out.

Must have been doing something wrong. . .Ah well, it’s the story of my life.

Zap!

I give it 11 pages, then they’ll close it like state troopers raiding a bachelor party.

Is it 11 pages yet?

How about now?

Now, maybe?

Now?

Damn.

Zap!
