Huh? I don’t get it. If other people get it you will be modsmacked. But otherwise I’ll assume you’re just being you.

1. Very, very disturbing mental image. I need to upgrade from beer. Gimme one of those necro-lesbo specials, **Squiddy.** A few more herpetic sores shouldn’t make any difference.

2. In the spirit of this game, shouldn’t Schwarzenegger be the candidate all can support?

3. Am I the only one in this game who has never actually seen the movie?

Quickly.

Nurse Ratchett is confused. Gather the meds. I am going for a keg. We’ll meet up at the waterfront. Ike be damned. Not a moment to lose, I tell ya’.

C’mon my friend. Just trying to differntiate the SNL crowd from the SCTV folks.

'Cause SNL blows while the old Candy SCTV just about rocks the house down. IMHO, of course.

I know that that’s why I love AH. I was just asking you to make up a drink in honor of our twisted romance.

On a side note if I was the mod I would have made the t-800s quirk that he had to post like Arnold. Would have totlay made him getting found out early worth it.

**This is not night strategizing**

And on the chance that I am not alive tomorrow I’ll take another glass of sake.

Cool a fortune cookie.

**Fortune Cookie**. Beware those players whose names begin with **B** or **S**.

Hmmm. What could it all mean?

Ok. Just so you fine folks don’t think I am daft. There is logic to all that I say.

Near as I can tell I came in third in the voting yesterday. When we used to have field day when I was a peekpup if you came in third you got a yellow ribbon. Blue for the steroid folks and Red for the ones that actually had a talent (First and Second). There was also this song about tying yellow ribbons around oak trees. It ends with “… stay on the bus, forget about us …”. And the reference about the bus lead us to the Who’s Magic Bus (they blow the Stones away IMHO) who also sing about the Pinball Wizzard (Remember Tommy - absolute crap except for the music) reference. Who is the greatest Wizzard ever - Gandalf, of course.

The Henny Youngman line was added just because he cracks me up.

Capiche.

And if you think that the heavy lifters are going to let either of us skate on the fun side, Whoa MaMa.

To some it is a science to be dissected and analyzed down to the molecular level. To others it is a past time that transcends the day to day struggles that all of mankind experiences in a symbolic way.

GD my fingers feel dirty having typed that last mush. Let’s get the boilings on the road.

I personally think a dirty mind is more fun than dirty fingers - but you can’t have it all I guess 😉

Certainly. But at times the dirty mind requires, no demands, dirty fingers.

Yeeps.

And regardless of what happens in the next hours or so I just want to say thanks. And I am sure that I will leave someone out so tough titty says the kitty but the milk tastes good. And some of these are repeats but what can you expect.

**TL and AH**. Thanks for jumping in the pond.

**Shadow**. How it be hanging? (I know, like a horse of course)

**Santo**. I truly do want to toss a pint or two with you. Gonna’ be in Phoenix in a month or so, ready to go? 'Course this time it’s probably not a ticket but an over nighter. WTFC

**MH**. Keep plodding along. Mister consistency.

**Koldanar**. Typed it right. Yazzoom.

**OAOW**. Not all who wander are lost. Sometimes we are just hiking.

**Cookies**. Mother of Og. Hot fresh chocolate chips out of the oven with a glass of cold milk (not the low fat shit but whole milk).

**Rysto**. Sorry pardner you will always be a witch in my mind.

**NBC**. Woot Woot. Made in on to basic cable.

And last but not least **Blam** and **Story**. I don’t trust either of you as far as I can throw you. You Mofos are scary. I’d still pop for drinks, however.

During the day, of course.

Ok, maybe I am being whooshed. Just was doing my own convoluted six degrees of separation. But of course mine was less. Is that it?

Charlie to Tony to the Who to LOTR to HY. That last pass was kind of lame but I already admitted that inclusion was merely for humor.

Seriously, are you screwing with me?
