Sorry about that, did you need a parasol to protect your delicate complexion?  
[/QUOTE]

Well, if you’re offering…🙂  
[QUOTE=twickster]  
Damn, that’s a lot of sugar. Just reading the recipe makes my teeth hurt.  
[/QUOTE]  
…are…are…are you saying…I’m…FAT?! ::sobs:: All I’ve had to eat today are two M&Ms, a teaspoon of Diet cola, a cup of water and a soupcon of salt. I’m entitled to a mint julep!

Typical. Bitch can’t do anything right.

Are you looking to get slapped? Don’t start with me. I’ve been in the navy, and I have black belts in jujitsu and tae kwon do. I’m not looking for trouble here, so this is just a friendly warning.

_ **Host private chat!!!** _

Here is who is left and my brief analysis of what we know so far along with possible quirks for most. There are a couple I really don’t know.

ArizonaTeach - no clue  
bbs2k - expect proper behavior in front of woman, catches escaped convicts. Possibly policeman or superhero  
Blaster Master - asks a question in every post  
DiggitCamara - drill sargeant?  
dotchan - public figure, lots of reporters, has a publicist. Actor or politician.  
Eureka - very concerned about finding out about the hosts, I agree that Eureka probably has the game backward.  
fachverwirrt - very angry, has been in jail, has at least one exwife, lots of drama. maybe a Jerry Springer guest.  
pprgrl - was in the navy, black belts in two martial arts. need more info  
Purplkid\_Caterer - Hmm, two posts with lots of ??? and !!!.  
Taber - No clue  
ZipperJJ - lots of talk about drinking and heavy drinking. Alcoholic.  
Zoggie - Very concerned about food and diet, can sew, likes mint julips. Sororiety girl or southern belle.

Yoo hoo! I’m still here and I’m waiting on my mint julep, and I do hate to get impatient, but a girl gets thirsty.

Hey, can I get one of those too? I loves me a mint julep in the good old summertime. Well, I guess it’s the good old fall now, but you know what I mean. 😉

[QUOTE=What Exit?]  
This party really moved along today and with only a little pushing and shoving. You are a good host **Rysto**.

**Twickster** , I can’t believe I went back to the caps mistake after you were nice enough to remind me I was doing it. I cannot seem to break the habit. In fact, I just had to go back and correct Caps to cap.

Anyway, anyone up for some Heckle & Jeckle?  
[/QUOTE]

Heckle & Jeckle? What’s that - a drink?

Well, all right… **Antinor** , dear, do you want to ask me some more questions? I’ll be sitting here if you want to come back–I’ve been on my feet all night long at this party, and I must take a break!

Yoo hoo! I’m still here and I’m waiting on my mint julep, and I do hate to get impatient, but a girl gets thirsty.

In case you were wondering, I’m enclosing the recipe down here. And come up and see me some time, why don’t you?

2 cups granulated sugar  
2 cups water (branch water is ideal)  
Fresh Mint  
Crushed Ice  
Kentucky Bourbon (2 ounces per serving)  
[/QUOTE]

here you go, Zoggie… is it all right that I didn’t have the pewter mug to serve it in?

Ok, here’s two mint juleps for **Zoggie** and **pprgrl**. **Zoggie** , let me quickly grab you a chair. **Taber** , if water’s not to your liking can I get your something stronger? If you’re sure you’re allowed to do so?

Did you get your drink? Sorry that I was so remiss. Now we can have a nice chat. Here’s a fun little question, if you were one of the Golden Girls which one would you be?
