I had a pithy comment about squids all set up and then realized I posted as Fetchund. :smack:

Yes, she was logged onto the Dope on my 'puter. :rolleyes: Yes, she’s my SO. 🙂

I know you all are breathlessly waiting – will she subscribe? You’ve searched everyday for my stunningly witty and insightful posts because you didn’t want to miss a single one. You are hoping beyond hope that I will subscribe and continue to enlighten and amuse you.

I’m sorry – I just can’t. I can’t say why; my reasons are too personal, too deep, too too.

I shant be gone. I shall watch you from a distance, passing judgement … er, um watching wistfully.

Regardless of all the responses here, I just wanted to mention I think you’re Doper material and you really belong here, just based on this one post.

Hoo boy. The last thing you want to do is _ask questions_ about the initiation.

Now we’re gonna have to bring in the kitchen implements and the jazz instruments.

I hope you like being syncopated.

Listen, if you can get the squid and the goat to keep each other busy (they’re either BFFs or mortal enemies, depanding on the day of the week), you can sneak out of there and come on over to the MMP (and bring **Fetchund** with you) 🙂

I just snuck in and started throwing pancakes around. Then I found out about dried salted squids. I was thinking of combining 'em with bacon.

If you stay, would ya like to try one? They go great with PBR.

You remind me of my brother, always grabbing the check and never wondering if there could possibly be a problem with that. Word to my brother: yes.

Remind me never to eat dinner with you, **Kuboydal**. The pancakes are supposed to go on the plate, not in the air.

I would like to thank you, **Kuboydal** , for mentioning Pancakes. you must have been an inspiration, as we had Swedish Pancakes for dinner tonight. Yum!
