I think that is pretty well locked in place after this. You could post an articulate, poignant political argument in Great Debates that managed to sway both **Stoid** and **december** to your position and the rest of the board would look at it and say’ “Oh look, the urine eater is posting again. Good for him.”

Bonus points to me for including Stoid and december. Ought to be a nice surprise when they do a vanity search and this thread comes up.

If it helps, I probably won’t remember you as “The guy with the tongue sig” anymore.

and you need big people shirts. I’d need around a 2xl… (3x if you could handle it… I like my shirts big. )

Close, but not quite. Try _The Man With the Golden Tongue_

And **scout** , you can’t get away. There are people here who know how to get things.

Sorry for the delay. There was a death in the family/funeral etc over the weekend so I wasn’t in much of a mood to deal with Giraffe’s urine.

Expect the pictures to appear sometime today or tomorrow.

So what will we need to do to get one of these t-shirts?  
And oh my god this is the funniest thread I have ever seen.

So sorry, **Mullinator**.

I hope we can have the t-shirt info posted here or somewhere accessible, so anyone interested (hint: me) could get one! 🙂

Thanks for the hard work of everyone who participated. Except **Giraffe**. All he did was eat some PBJs.

Very busy week at work, so this’ll take some time.

Patience, grasshopah.

Yeah, the real kudos should go to **nerissassippi**. Y’know, she had to hold the camera all steady through the gales of laughter.

The pictures, they are posted. To view them in all of their splendor, just [follow the link.](http://www31.brinkster.com/mullinatorsdmb/Giraffe.html)

Or, just click on my sig (assuming I coded it correctly. Always a dicey proposition.)

The one with the cat inspecting the toilet is the best of the bunch.

**Giraffe** is a very brave (or possibly very stupid) man. In any case, he is an example to us all.

Brilliant, just brilliant.

And who knew, but the dude who’ll eat a urine-soaked sammy is a cutie-patootie!

[no offense, **nerissassippi** - you got yourself a looker!]

And yes, the cat photo is hysterical.
