[QUOTE=Kat] Kat Knapp wine? Never head of it, is it any good? Although, yeah, it _is_ a cute kitty, and how awfully nice it was of them to name a wine after me, don’t you think? [/QUOTE] I have to admit, I’m not much of a wine drinker, so I can’t really judge whether it’s a good wine or not. I can tell you it didn’t taste alcoholic, so much as fruity, but it did smell like alcohol. I was told that it was not dry at all. ( I think). Sweet and fruity. Someone brought it to a party I was at, and I decided to be brave and sample some. Certainly some of the best wine I’ve tasted–where best is defined as appealing to me, and it is acknowledged that it had probably been 18 months (at least) since I’d tasted any other wine. I just don’t know how to be a social drinker. :rolleyes: (at me) ---

[QUOTE=DaphneBlack] OK, I am awake again. Glad to see that there was no emergency tracheotomy after all. We might have been sued! [/quote] Yes. Avoiding lawsuits is always the best reasoning for one’s behavior. It goes over so well in the press. > [@](#): > > **Otaku** , have you visited Paris or London? I’ve never been to London, but I have visited Paris. Of course, this was many years ago. Oh, my favorite animals tend to be canines. Pack hunters are just such great role models, don’t you think? ---

As long as the canine in question is not a lycanthrope, I think that’s OK. Speaking of lycanthropes, let’s nominate someone! I’m thinking **brujaja** or maybe **Dolores Reborn**? But, come to think of it, **OtakuLoki** is displaying some pretty suspicious behavior. ---

I’m finally at work so I can search posts ::eyes LHoD:: but I’ll do that later. I can’t believe we almost had a tracheotomy it would have been great especially if you had gone with the butter knife. Just in case it’s needed while we’re absent I keep a full surgical set in the hall closet but you’ll need some way to get them unconscious I suggest the handle of Everclear (works as an antiseptic as well). Alright question time: Wargamer - How often do you play in the fueds? Doloris - Are their any parts of the Democratic platform you disagree with? Drain - How did that Hamlet soliloquy go again? ---

Now that you’ve brought it ‘up’ tho, do you howl at the moon - if so, only at the full moon or at any other time. ---

> [@OtakuLoki](#): > > BTW, Eureka, I have to admit that there’s something that seems much more visually striking to the idea of getting pictures of people after they’ve been hit by wildly used blenders, rather than before. The shock value of such images just can’t be over-stated. You’ve got a point, so long as it is pictures of other people who’ve been hit by the wildly used blenders and not me. 😉 The other people would probably say the same thing–but think that acceptable targets for post-blender-use photography would include me. They would be wrong. 😉 ---

[QUOTE=DaphneBlack] I’d love to hear more about the animals everyone likes and dislikes…it’s for charades later. [/QUOTE] My favorite is cats. Whenever I bake pies, I take a little bit of the unbaked crust and feed it to my cats. They’re weird, because feeding them salmon results in fish-growls, but when I feed them the unbaked crust, they make wonderful noises of contentment. Daniel ---
