I know what you’re saying, **Mully**. I can’t think of anything noteworthy happening in my life either…oh wait. Come to think of it, I guess I did [run a marathon](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=48124) last Thursday, but it’s not like I’m eager to tell the whole world about it or anything.

Oh great, now Five is using my shameless attempt at publicity to generate his own shameless attempt at publicity.

I’m sleepy today because a bunch of mice were racing the Amsterdam Grand Prix in my ceiling last night. Maybe got 2 hours of sleep. Low even by MY standards.

My colleague makes a shitload of noise when he eats. It is not a joy to hear.

More coffee.

I got your passion _right here_, Euty. Although, you didn’t return that last email I sent. Oh well, you **are** a guy. 😉

No, I mean passion. Real-life passion. Actual passion. Passion at least within driving distance.

Well, technically, you _could_ drive to Minnesota since we aren’t seperated by an ocean or anything. It would take you a while though.

You’re in Minnesota, **Silver Fire**? Interesting. I hear there are many runners in Minnesota.

Say, speaking of running, have I mentioned I ran a [marathon](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=48124) last week?

Hi **Mullinator**! Remember, this thread’s all about you, buddy!

That I’ll be gone for a couple of hours to run out and buy some Claudia Schiffer undies. When I will return, I will be a sexier underclad tot.

Every single one of you needs passion! Or vitamin shots or a new teddy bear or something. Wait. \<rustle of tissue paper\> Look! “Passion” by Liz Taylor, in the original purple 2-liter bottle. Two squirts behind each ear, boys and girls, and you’ll be so passionate you won’t know what to do with yourself. Unless, of course, you’ve read all the sex threads.  
Have at it!  
I’m going back to my book now.

I’d just like to point out that Maragold lost her SDMB virginity in my thread.

Time to go put another notch in my keyboard.
