[QUOTE=DaphneBlack] **LHoD** , would you say you enjoy spinning a good yarn? [/QUOTE] Definitely so. Some of the stories I’ve told here (such as [this one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=9996408&postcount=96)) are ones I’ve told on the board before, but that got lost along with a lot of other posts about six years ago, during the “winter of our missed content.” Daniel ---

They should be horsewhipped in the public square and left there in the stocks until they break down and promise to sacrifice their favorite possessions as burnt offerings to the gods of capitalization. Either that or I just don’t pay attention to them. I really could go either way with it. 😃 ---
