That’s just a front. See, **Coldfire** and **OpalCat** are really lovers but they have to keep it on the down low because she’s married and he has a girlfriend. They have names picked out for their kids and everything already. **OpalFire** if its a girl and **ColdCat** if its a boy.

**Amp** , you should start a game thread on what you just did… coming up with kids names based on the marriage of doper names. Coldcat? Heh.

Also, wrt the whole “Opal plugging her site and shirts…”- wouldn’t she be better served by just putting links to them in a sig and leaving it at that?

Well, that would be fine, provided the sig doesn’t exceed 4 lines (you can link to a hell of a lot in 4 lines, as has been demonstrated ;)), and none of the links goes to a commercial venue.

Damn. Here I was hoping there’d just been a major update or something, but I’ve already read most of the stuff on the PoF. Either I have to stop reading it so often, or **Opal** needs to update it more often… How’s every 20 minutes or so sound to you, **Opal**? 😉

Oh, and just to prevent any misunderstanding, [fathom.org/jjtm](http://fathom.org/jjtm) is not Opal’s site, it’s my site graciously provided by Opal’s dime. Thanks again, Opal.

May you be forced to eat 15lb of Taco Bell beans and cheese, and then have your anus stapled shut. May you become JDT’s personal Tug Ahoy.

The only thing worse than _having_ one of my posts on that page would be _not having_ a post on that page.

Hint, hint, hint **Opalcat**! 😃
