[QUOTE=Diomedes] Oooh! I think I’ve finally got one! **Official Guess: Zoggie must use weights and measures in her posts!** If I’ve gotten this wrong, my cohosts may send me upstairs to my room. [/QUOTE] Nope – you measured up on this one. [QUOTE=Diomedes] And, I’ll go not too far out on the limb here with: Official Guess: dotchan is a presidential candidate or politician of some stripe. [/quote] A winning guess! [QUOTE=Rysto] I think Antinor actually figured this one out, but I’ll poach it anyway: Official guess: fachverwirrt is a guest on the Jerry Springer show. [/quote] I’ll give you co-credit for this correct guess. ---

Hostly thoughts- ArizonaTeach - Me, when I’m drunk? He’s a real jerk… enjoys denying things, maybe? Blaster Master - No idea DiggitCamara - A football coach? Only one post so far, though. Eureka - Still seems to be checking us out. Another private eye, like last game? pprgrl - Seems helpful, peacemaker type… Purplkid\_Caterer - Nothing yet. Taber- Grammatical errors? Mispunctuation, missing hyphens and periods. ZipperJJ- Party animal sort… interested in getting drunk, but first post about ‘hanky panky’ ---

[QUOTE=Purplkid\_Caterer] … Quite a few weirdos at this party! [/QUOTE] Who, Eureka? Not a weirdo at all. I believe he’s an eminent dust-mite investigator, who’s flown here all the way from Thailand in order to check for any mutant midges living in Rysto’s orifices. (What, hosts can’t be weird, too?) ---

[QUOTE=Diomedes] I’m sorry. Do you think we’re giant animatronic devices? I don’t think there’s a sign that says “Chuckie Cheese’s” out front… [/QUOTE] Not _exactly_. Well, probably not at all. But to have such perfectly ordinary ears, in perfectly ordinary flesh tones, surprises me. I would have expected pointy ears, or green skin or something. **Rysto** , What, you mean it isn’t our properly elected officials and the people they appoint and their staff, etc.?
