Vestal Blue, I can be persuaded to forget about the Chief if you teach me to fly your plane. What’s the big secret with the felching thing? I’m 18 years old. I’m sure I’ve heard worse. ---

I’m 39 years old and when I finally learned what it was, I was so grossed out I almost threw up. Have I ever steered you wrong, Amy? Trust me, you do not want to know what felching is. Just forget about it and go about enjoying Straight Dope, k? ---

Dammit, if it ain’t the ChairWoman of the Canuck Witch Association again! Amy, trust me. I’m a decent guy. I have no knowledge of the concept of felching other than what SqrlCub told me, and the SDMB at large. For some reason (probably because I made one wiseCRACK (no pun intended) too many), people associate me with an unhealthy facination for felching. This is a blatant misconception. And trust me, it ain’t as bad as killing a poor, innocent, furry little gerbil 😛 ---

If this felching is as gross as Shayna says, I don’t want to know about it. Chief, how do I get to fly one of those Tomcats? Here in Canada, our Air Force is still flying those bi-planes. 🙂 ---

Hi, Amy! Welcome aboard. I like your pop, even if he did smoke me for a sawbuck over at snopes a few months ago, but that’s no reflection on you (but if he’s careless with his wallet, you know, maybe we could go for a soda or something…). ---

oh my :eek: **Amy** , _DO NOT ASK ABOUT FELCHING EVER AGAIN_, Yuck!!! Thinking about that gives me the chills. That’s like the guy in a horror flick saying, “Theres nothing behind this door…” ::blood drops dripping gently down the door frame whilst air headed female screams in shock at the sight of her now deceased boyfriend and the thing coming out from behind the doo…oooooof…:: Get it woman? **Shayna** , so glad you agree. so, on a lighter note, didja happen notice i’m a young **single** proffessional man with a passion for the arts and a love for nature? Well yes i am. So howdy! My name is Soulsling, you can just call me…Sooooooouuuuuuul. 😉 If there’s any boyfriendly inclinations you have in mind for me just hollar little lady, i’d be more than happy to oblige. ::tips hat:: ---

Mullinator is right: we COULD make a sitcom out of this. Though I’d like to offer an alternative title: Wally: The Next Generation We’ve got the central characters (Amy and Wally), the wacky/off-beat (cyber)neighbours (names witheld to protect me) and an endless supply of topics. All we need now is a laughtrack and a cool theme song. ---

_Guys!!_ Wouldja knock it off, already? Let the poor girl at least say “hello” before you start trying to corrupt her. Hi, Amy. I’m TVeblen, mostly known as Veb. Welcome to the asylum. Those people earlier? They’re just off their medication right now. They aren’t usually like that at all. Oh, you’ve lurked here, so you know darned well they’re _exactly_ like that. _Sigh_ It’s true, all too true. Your father is held in high esteem by a bunch of fairly warped people. But rest assured, we welcome all on their own merits, and are assuming your mother’s excellent genes prevailed. Well, a hearty welcome to you! Glad you’re here. Veb ---

Thank you, Veb. My Dad is a huge fan of yours. He still has the E-Mail you sent him before he went in for surgery. It was so sweet. My Mom and I cried. I look forward to your posts. Amy ---
