You won’t sucker me in, as soon as I start chasing, you’ll all run in different directions. 😛

I’ll volunteer to chase any ladies that need it - I may not be 100% gorgeous, but I _do_ have an English accent.

Let’s see…

Torches? Check.  
Pitchfork? Check.  
Tranquilizer darts? Check.  
Running shoes? Check.  
Light supper and a bottle of wine? Check.  
Massage oils? Check.

Okay, who wants to be chased first?

Well, I think I’m the 6th lass to apply for membership (if I counted correctly). I would love to be chased first by **Monstre** but I probably have to wait my turn. 😉

I want a cute guy to chase after me too. I haven’t had that in awhile. _pouts_

All in good time fair jazzmine. Let me lay my jacket on the ground so you can get comfortable, as I pour you a glass of wine ( sorry, Boone’s Farm is all I caould find at this hour).

**jazzmine** , if I offer you access to the Mensa Cabana Boys, can I join the club? While they’re not physically gorgeous, (Shhh! Don’t tell them that!) they are intelligent, witty and think intelligence is sexy. They are also required to bring drinks on command and give massages, specializing in one body part. Yes, they’re real! Why do you think I joined in the first place? Yes, we can arrange to have one shipped to Consequential.

Oh yes, you can also have all the gorgeous men who aren’t chasing me, either.

Well, as long as you promise to say _naughty_ often (at least twice a day), then it doesn’t matter what you look like. 😉

I submit cherries on a platter for your inspection. \*\* jazzmine can I join your club too?\*\* I will wait my turn, being 7th in line ( I think).

My fools folly. I always thought **Ethilrist** was a guy. When you look at the name you realise it ain’t so. Dammit.

**Jazzmine** says:  
\<\< Help! There’s no _gorgeous_ men after me! \>\>

Well, hon, you know I’m after you. … Plus a few others in your little club.

_ **ponders momentarily** _

Ok, I get it. … I’ll just stand over here out of the way.

Oh no you don’t, **Jim**. No standing in the corner. Active pursuit is all that’s required of you.

Boone’s Farm? That’ll take me back to my school days.
