Ahhh, Athena!

Nice to see you again! And all cleaned up, too!

Come on over to Bucky’s; Seale may show up as well!

Oh, man. I could have sworn I saw an extra “L” in there. It gave me a mental picture I really am trying to get rid of right now…

VB: I’m just winging off a couple of posts for right now (I’m supposed to be working) I’ll look for those threads later, when I get a chance.

Why thank you, okatym. You are now a favorite of the Goddess. Speaking of that,  
is there a “Favorite Goddess” category in the vote? If so, am I on it?

Hiya Vestal! Maybe I’ll drop in at Bucky’s. Unfortunately, the God of Data Storage is on my back today - they’re making me work! Damn them!
