After I corraled five drunken Mississippians in Helen Sunday morning? After Beckdawrek built the kudzu man to burn them in? Er…Beck, you **did** build the kudzu man, right? There _is_ room enough for five? ---

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > Cecil cannot be invoked by something like spray painting “Cecil rules!” on a highway sign. > That’s too, you know, subtle. A VERY long time ago ( 2004, +/- ) I vacationed at Cape May, NJ. Lovely week. My beach t-shirt was the infamous Straight Dope t-shirt for sale back then. 99.5% of the people who glanced at it walked past blank-faced. But…there were those few who looked and looked again. Hard. And looked at ME. Hard. Wondering who the hell I was on the Boards. 😃 Nobody approached. Which was a shame. I wore it in the hopes that some Doper would happen upon that stretch of beach. ( This was back in the days when Dopefests were a real going concern. ) It’s always nice when our favorite Unca stops by for some hot apple cider with a few shots of Fireball tossed in. Hope we see him soon. ---

It would explain how much he knows, though, he’ll have had plenty of time to learn everything without growing older. ---

I hear the weather is bad in Patagonia. @Ed_Zotti could text Cecil and invite him for a visit. While at @Ed_Zotti 's house Cecil could catch up with the Dope and post a brief message to me, of course😁. Wouldn’t that be fun? Come on guys, do some shameless begging and promises of bribery. He can’t refuse everyone.but mostly me😁 ---
