[QUOTE=Quiddity Glomfuster]  
OK, I had to get up from a dead faint that you and I are agreeing on something but we are.  
[/quote]  
Yeah, I agreed with you in the other threads as well but refrained from saying so for just this reason.

Now I need chocolate and smelling salts 😛  
[/QUOTE]  
Actually, I’ve found that champagne goes better with chocolates, but perhaps that’s just me. 😉

I think me agreeing with and backing up alice is one of the 7 signs of the apocalypse, but hey, when she’s right, she’s right.

It’s even worse than that. I’m agreeing with the both of you. GAH!!!

There is definitely something wrong here.

[/QUOTE]  
Yeah, I certainly never envisioned myself in concert with anyone named **Quiddity Glomfuster** or **Heffalump and Roo** , but there ya go.

I hope we’ll all be okay. 😛
