What about the goat? Who’s bringing the goat for the /////////

Anyway, congratulations. Paul is one of the more interesting board members to read. I wish you much happiness. Too bad you aren’t getting hitched in Kansas, I could make the cake. My username is also my profession!

Congratulations, pleased to meet you, don’t let the talk about the goat and squid scare you they’re housetrained, the kitchen is this way _points_ and there’s munchies and drinks on the table. People in the MMP send offerings of chocolate to **FairyChatMom** , I’m sure if you ask nicely she’ll share some of it…
