[QUOTE=dotchan] Diomedes, I believe Aesiron has yet to post in this thread at all. Would you mind prodding him for me?) [/QUOTE] Aeisron prodded. ---

I’d support you in making the following guesses: [QUOTE=dotchan] \*Taber [snip] Dionysus, god of wine [note: I think he’s that god specifically] \*Diggitcamara - inexperienced traveling salesman \*Eureka - misuses homonyms. \*fluiddrid - quotes from product labels. [/QUOTE] And sorry, didn’t see this last night: > [@](#): > > \*fachverwirrt - might be quoting from movies and/or stage plays? (I’m going to be busy rereading the Conspiracy Mafia tonight, would one of you other hosts mind googling the contents of his posts so far?) which is an excellent suggestion. Unfortunately, though I can post from work, I can’t devote large chunks of time to screwing around from work, so I can’t do this till tonight – **bbs2k** , will you have time to do some googling on this? ---

**bbs2k** How important can the phone call bee if ewe can’t make out who it’s four? Hang up. If its really important, they will call back. ---

[QUOTE=Malacandra] Hey, a Steinway! May I? You know, I can busk all of _Rhapsody in Blue_ entirely from memory. 🙂 [/QUOTE] What is that? _Rhapsody_? They’re gnarly! Absolutely top-notch head-bangin’ power-metal. So… epic. Oh, my hunger is continuing to grow. I’m in need of some cake. Where’s my bloody cake!? Unless, of course, there’s some pies; I’d love some pies as well… chocolates or pumpkins or merengue… yumyum. Who’s servin’ th’ drinks? I’m also in need of some hard liquor. What kind of fiesta is it when I’m able to walk straight? We need people to be intoxicating themselves thoroughly. Lots of drinks! ---

[QUOTE=OneCentStamp] Does the caller sound male or female? Did he/she identify him/herself? [/QUOTE] If it is an attractive female, inform said caller to come here to do some strippin’. I’m findin’ this gala rather boring at this juncture. That mayhap will lift my spirit. ---

We can do that if you like - I speak Italian fluently. I learned it when I was in the Parachute Regiment. ---

[QUOTE=OneCentStamp] Rhapsody…the six Italian guys who have movie-like narration over top of the music, right? Cool stuff. [/QUOTE] Hell yeah! Well, they ain’t Rhapsody no more… they’re Rhapsody of Fire as of th’ most recent cd. Apparently, they were sued by Rhapsody (that file sharin’ software), even though they were around before. Oh well… Long live power-metal! Speaking of that… what is this we’re listenin’ to? We need somethin’ hard like… power-metal or death-metal or doom or thrash. Yeah! Head-bangin’ is most pleasant. ---

This piano’s out of tune. ☹ Wish I’d brought my wrench, I could’ve tuned it to concert pitch in about half an hour. ---
