In response to the recent [I love MeanOldLadyl](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=575306) thread I must say I’m not up to the $10,000 mark, but if you want an easy $5… I’m not above a bribe. ---

I’m offering my services as a PR rep. I can organize a fundraiser to provide that $5. I charge a measly $10. ---

Asking for it is very bad manners. It’s on pare with asking for $100 cash from each person that attends your wedding to pay for their share of the bridzilla wedding. You can’t buy love! only sex. ---

Reasons we should do this: 1. $5 2. She’s been constipated and needs the love 3. Gee, I can’t think of a third so I guess I’ll leave it blank Oh well, I just wanted to stop by and say Hi Opal. ---

If you send me $5 I will start a thread “I didn’t Sleep With Opal Cat”. That would surely make people think your taste is very good. ---

Rumor has it that the entire Australian Mens Olympic Swim Team loved **OpalCat** in a hotel room in Bali - I’ll bet that is where she got the $5. Then again, maybe that is why she only has $5 left to pay for this honor. Still - you don’t need a thread to show we all love you **OpalCat**. Sometimes, the lack of a personal thread in the Pit is all the love we need… ---
