She’s not a new poster. But she’s a habitual lurker, though I know for a fact she’s skimming the dope right now. Maybe if we shout real loud she’ll hear us HEEEEY LIONSAOI! Come say hi! ---

Welcome, from a fellow dork! I suggest decapitating a melon, or chopping up a banana or something. You know, to celebrate Bastille Day! And then eating croissants, of course. mmmmm, croissants… ---

> [@Enderw24](#): > > PPPS she just lamented that we didn’t celebrate Bastille Day. We’re not French. Or Canadian. Or French-Canadian. Y’all should come to Philly next year. There’s a 19th-century prison, closed as a prison about 30 years ago and open now as a historic site, called Eastern State Penitentiary, fairly close to the center of the city (near the Art Museum, for thems as knows Philly). Every Bastille Day, there’s a big celebration there, including tossing TastyKakes (Philly’s trademark snack cakes) from the battlements.

Hi, all! Enderw24 and I are out on a date night…talking comic con and smoking hookah. I’ll post back later. Thanks for the welcome. PS. I’m a nerd, not a dork. PPS. He won’t hold my hand in public, after five years of marriage. You should chastise him. PPPS. I love Philly…lived there for three years. ---
