I’m in!

Just don’t buy me soy sauce. Never Kikkoman when he’s down.

Yes, Dogbutt, I did.
For the reasonable MMP subscribers, Silver Swan is an excellent soy sauce, made in the Philippines, more umani, more flavorful than Kikkoman, which is made in San Francisco.

But it doesn’t make the pun, sir.

MetalMouse–I find Outback too spicy, Longhorn Way too expensive, but they have a larger menu, and TRH has the best steaks at the very best price.
Colas are banned from the mothership, my Quacks have restricted my Phosphorus intake. The 20 two liters of diet ginger ale in the garage handle my liquid intake well.

Nope. **Metal mouse** , there will be no pix of me cosplayed/dolled up, on the Dope. Y’all couldn’t handle it (;))

Seen it. Harley Quinn, with boots too small. Wasn’t _that_ bad. Damn good, actually!

Driving through downtown Raleigh the other evening, I had the college station on, and they were playing electronic dance mixes. After one set, they had a bumper from a Woody Allen movie.
Woody: We had a discussion about music, and then he threatened to push me down a flight of stairs.
Other man: Then what happened?
Woody. He was successful. He pushed me down a flight of stairs.
I don’t know why, but that really tickled me. I was laughing painfully all the way home. I’ve gotten into heated discussions with other people about music before. I still snicker about this.
