Hey all, sorry I ran a little late, got ticketed by a policeman for arguing with him, can you believe that? Music, huh? I brought my own mix, mind if I put it on? ---

Sheesh, it’s less a party here, and more like a civil war, which reminds me of my days in the civil war, when I was courting a comely lass who owned a large cotton plantation. Unfortunately, she turned out to be a manipulative cheating hussy, so I left her when my beloved daughter died. ---

[QUOTE=fluiddruid] Pears, socks, and donuts? Just what kind of party is this, anyway? [/QUOTE] I don’t know yet, since I just got here. But donuts are always fun to eat at a party. And I suppose pears are acceptable; I always see fruit trays at a lot of the parties I go to…have I mentioned that I go to a lot of parties? Well, I do. It’s a regular thing around here, and I’m always invited. Now, the socks, well, yeah, that’s a puzzlement. But I’m sure **fluiddruid** will make sure to explain the socks thing to me, once she gets back. ---

I’m just the kind of person that everyone notices. Yeah, I grew up here. Well not here, exactly, but in this area, you know. I moved up north for a few years, but ended up moving back and I’ve been here ever since.
