I believe that in your past life you really were a cat, toying with a caught mouse. ---

[QUOTE=dotchan] (Host notes: My only other guess on Priceguy for the moment is that he might be a psychiatrist or something, but I already used mine.) [/QUOTE] (The problem here is that he’s revealed personal stuff. A professional wouldn’t have mentioned these things.) ---

Sorry, once again, life is intervening. I had a real life social engagement tonight - I had to go eat hot wings. 😃 [QUOTE=twickster] I’ve had my guesses on two of the unguessed, and I don’t see a fucking thing for the other two. Apparently I was right on “th’-not-the, an-not-a,” but frankly I have no idea what that could possibly signify. I’ve read and reread what little **featherlou** has posted and can’t see any kind of pattern to it at all. Given that the “ **twicks** is pissed” guess has been officially acknowledged, I’m gonna officially sit on the sofa and sulk for the rest of this game (though I won’t read the “secret” thread till the game is declared over). [/QUOTE] Oh, sure, keep acting like you’re upset - I’m sure you’ll find some way to win this game before it’s over, legit or not. ---

[QUOTE=dotchan] **Priceguy** , I’m afraid I missed your answer on what your job was. What do you do for a living? [/quote] Who, me? Oh, I’m a… marketing consultant. Yeah, that’s it. > [@bbs2k](#): > > what are some of your hobbies that you’ve held for too long? Apart from the Scotch and smokes, I don’t have any hobbies. What did you do during the week before this party? Anything interesting? ---

[QUOTE=bbs2k] :: administers CPR :: Guests, as long as you don’t have an evil streak, please give us aid at the home stretch! [/QUOTE] Well. _sips Scotch_ You need aid? Involved in something fishy, are you? _lights cigarette_ Well, that’s what I’m here for. But so far you’ve given me pretty much zip. _adjusts hat_ I _may_ be able to help you. Maybe I will, maybe I won’t. But unless you sit down and tell me everything, you’ll never know which. _shows gun_ And don’t do anything stupid. ---

[QUOTE=bbs2k] I am involved in nothing fishy. [/quote] That’s not what I heard, mister. You can play the tough guy, but trust me when I say that I’ve played that game much more than you have. If there’s one game I can’t be beaten at, it’s the tough guy game. So come clean now. It’ll be a lot easier on both of us. You’ve known for a while now that someone was on to you. Maybe you didn’t expect someone like me to come along, but you must have expected something. How this is going to end is up to you. Here, have a Scotch. Give me the whole story. ---
