It’s finally dropped off the front page.

No, I don’t want it brought back. It served a purpose, ran its course and was a Hell of a lot of fun.  
But, dammit, that bastard was addicting!!

I wish someone who has the time (read: no life) would novelize it. 'Twould make and excellent, if not pointless, short story.

Any takers?

Oh hell…I’ll give it a shot. If nothing else, it’ll give me something to do during my 2 hour layover in Pittsburgh Friday.

Well, that’s it. I’m headed straight to hell. At least the ride was enjoyable.

Who’d a thought starting something with a belch could become so gloriously enjoyable for so many. :o

I loved the way that it morphed into a story told by several cyberdrunk posters. That was a total riot.

I heard the Lioness was making windbreakers for the Lion and cubs out of the moose schlong skin.

I cannot believe how much freaking fun I had on that trip. It was the best stress reliever I’ve had in years.

The bumps on my head are gone, and the doctor says that the burns on my hand probably won’t leave any scars!
