jjtm,

## now look here - if we all posted twice, this thread wouldn’t be 695 posts long it would be…hey, can I get a beer over here!

\*The night is dark. The air is cold and still. Crickets xhirp, and a wolf howls at the full moon.

Suddenly, the animals fall silent. There is no sound whatsoever. The ground slowly crumbles, then falls still once again. There is a pause, as if the woods are holding their breath. All at once, the ground in a half mile radius shoots upward twenty feet into the air.

Something, some THING, crawls out of the ground. fresh earth falling off of it. The THING turns it’s head, and begins to crawl/slither. It leaves a trail of beer cans, drunk Straight Dopers, and spit behind it.\*

What rough Thread, it’s hour come at last, slouches towards Salt Lake City to be born?

**We’re baaaaaack!!!**

You say “cheesy” like that’s a **BAD** thing.

Wow, the thread was so anxious to be reborn, it posted twice! Go figure!

Anyway, let’s go join them women over there. If slasher films have taught me _anything_, it’s that girls dancing around in their underwear **always** want a bunch of drunk guys to join them!

Byzantine,

$5000 for beer - no problem:

- I can put it on my credit card. Then get a new credit card next month and pay the old credit card from that…

- Hey, I earn in £’s, and there are over $4 to every £ (what do you mean, not any more?!)

- I can sell the movie rights to guy stuff (what really worries me is that somebody will)

- look, with all the gorgeous, intelligent SDMB women having a pillow fight in their lingerie … that’s worth $5,000!

::continuing the “Animal House” jokes, Flounder bounces up and down chortling, "This is _greeeaaat!_ while the Deathmobile lays rubber on the road::

OhhhKAY, we have chicks in lingerie gearing up for a pillow fight, Chief Scott has an entire battle group of horny sailors steaming in, there’s a drunk English guy w/ a _usable_ credit card…

Dare we hope that Guy Stuff is back?

Damn, I’m so happy I want to go blow something up. Hot damn _skippy_, we’ve already wreaked havoc on assorted moose and nuns! Looks like the party is going coastal and the manatees are looking real nervous…

(In my best Gene Wilder voice) \<It’s alive!\* Guy Stuff, that is.

I think I’ll mosey over and check out the ingenues in lingerie. And if a wet t-shirt contest breaks out, just remember: Skin to Win!
