Heh. Actually, the reference is to Peta’s “Okay, I’m ready, you can take my picture now” look on her face.

Again, it’s probably one of the captions that needs re-writing. Feel free, people.

It just kinda _popped_ in my head that I said you could find 'em on the web somewhere.

**ON THE GOOD SHIP LOLLIPOP**

_Rudy Vallee_

On the good ship Lollipop,  
It’s a sweet trip,  
To a candy shop,  
Where bonbons play,  
On the sunny beach of Peppermint Bay.  
Lemonade stands everywhere,  
Cracker Jack bands fill the air,  
And there you are,  
Happy landings on a chocolate bar,  
Eating sugar bowl,  
With a Tootsie Roll,  
And a big, fat jelly fruitcake.  
If you eat too much…  
Oh! Oh!  
You’ll awake,  
With a tummy-ache!  
On the good ship Lollipop,  
It’s a sweet trip,  
Into bed you’ll pop,  
And dream away,  
On the good ship Lollipop!

Now the truth is out…Sqrl got me addicted to heroin (is that what HORSE is?)

I forgot to thank **Phil** for being so cool, too. It was really fun listening to you bludgeon “Hey Jude” to a painful, bloody death. (Just kidding, it wasn’t that bad).

I’m sorry, punha, but my longstanding image of you will be the half-squat captioned perfectly by Sqrl’s “pfffffftttt.”

I hope ya’ll notice my lovely manicure amongst all the pictures of Alex. Really, we spent the whole time playing with and staring at the cat. And staring at Phil. Er, maybe that was just me. And staring at Phil staring at the cat.

Anyway, I sent my pictures away (I have a stupid Advantix camera and it takes a week to get them back) yesterday so they will arrive at Falcon’s in about three months. Or as long as it takes me to send them to her.

1. Phil didn’t bludgeon it, I did. Attribute that to nervousness.

2. Considering my flatulence when we were playing cards, I’m surprised I didn’t fart then.

3. We were all staring at the cat? That would explain why you did so poorly when we played cards:) I wasn’t staring at the cat.
