Hope everyone is sufficiently refreshed. Let us know if you need anything…
Otaku, what is your favourite thing to photograph?
Dolores, are you on the Dope all the time?
Rysto, how do you feel about your relationship with your mother?
Antinor, what other TV (besides Star Trek) do you like? Hoe do you feel about e.e. cummings as a poet?
Drain Bead, can you recite the Pledge of Allegiance for us? I know we’re all loyal citizens, and it’s how some folks like to start the day…

Oh, Oredigger77, do you often have your parties turn into impromptu operating rooms? Do you have a license to practice medicine? And if not, do your parties meet the standards of any of the various hospital associations?

Well . . . Ummm . . . You see sometimes it gets a bit crazy like, and you don’t always want to get the authorities involved. But licenced? ::looks around:: Of course I’m licences what type of opperation do you think I’m running here we don’t go stabbing people in the throats with butterknifes with out a licence.
So Loki are there ever times you don’t take pictures? Like in the bedroom?

No thanks. I am not a fan of it.
Daphne, I really enjoy a good photograph that’s shocking, or surprising. Anything that will get the viewer’s attention and start their imagination running full tilt.
Have you ever seen the picture of Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald? Now, there’s a great photograph.
Oredigger77, I can’t say that I’ve ever set out to photograph anything in a bedroom. I can say, too, that I’ve never taken a photograph in a bathroom.
(Though, to tell the truth, while I was in the Navy I’d had one of my shipmates try to talk me into taking a photograph of what he was calling a monster turd he’d just dropped into the toilet. I declined.)
I am going to be offline all day, and won’t be back till late. Thus I won’t be around to respond to any Official Guesses that any hosts might make. I am going to leave it up to you – if a host makes an Official Guess (and it must be so labeled) about you, you may respond to it, either to confirm or deny. Remember to speak OOG (out of game) if you’re not going to be using your quirk in that response.
Have fun and behave yourselves (if those two things aren’t in conflict …)

[/QUOTE]
Most days I’m on during working hours, not so much on the weekends. I think I would die if the Dope got blocked at work! I was really worried when we got bought by a large company - but they didn’t block it. Whew!
I mean, how would I research stuff? You guys are the best resource there is! Although I could be a resource myself, for Rules of Order and the like.
Loki - Have you ever made money off taking pictures?
Yes, I have. Sometimes you get a good memento, and people want to see it. Like what happened to Zapruder? So, I get to have my hobby be a bit self-supporting.

In any event, let’s talk animals. Personally I was always a big fan of the great dane, because it’s fun having a dog that can double as a riding pony in a pinch.
I used to think that rabbits and weasels were cute, but then I actually met a friend who owned some. They tended to stink, go crazy, and they couldn’t be taught to cook or even operate a food processor, so the romance was kind of disintegrated by the cold, hard light of reality.
Oh, and cats are awesome. They’re like the land version of dolphins, with twice the evil and half the social skills.

I loves me some voles.
I had a dog who loved voles. He’d catch them, carry them to us, so we’d know just how excellent a hunter he was, then he’d try to get us to play tug with them.
Then he’d eat 'em.
The worst part was the time that we went on a vacation, leaving him with my mother’s parents, who owned a small farm. My grandmother freaked out, because he stopped eating. And we were gone a week, and he’d barely nibble at his dog food.
She hadn’t realized just how completely he’d been feeding himself on the local rodents and insectivores. He’d ended up gaining weight during the time he was “starving” himself.

I’m not familiar with Cummings work, so really can’t comment.
Mondays are one of my favorite TV nights, House of course is the greatest. Ok, so the medicine is spotty at best but it’s a terrific drama. I also love Bones. If you’re not familiar with it, it follows forensic anthropoligist Dr Temperence “Bones” Brennan and FBI special agent Seeley Booth. Someones dies and they have to solve it, usually from skeletal remains or the like. It’s a pretty cool show, but like House not overly attached to technological and medical constraints. 
Official guess: Antinor01’s alliteration is required.

As much as I adore alliteration (I named a costume contest using the letter T to make a beautiful alliteration recently!) that is sadly not my quirk.

D’oh. Oh well. Oredigger, Santo, any thoughts on this ornery guest?

Is it just me, or do the hosts at this party seem a bit quick to judge people? Perhaps even paranoid?
They might even be dangerous.
What do you think, Antinor01, now that you’ve been falsely accused by one of our hosts?

Dangerous might be a stretch. They do seem awfully nosy though. But I don’t mind talking about myself and my interests so it really doesn’t bother me.
I swear we’re not dangerous! It was the guests, after all, whose idea the emergency tracheotomy was.
Where has everyone gone.
Antinor, I understand now that your alliteration is voluntary rather than necessary. Would you make a non-alliterative post? Just to indulge me? I could go scouting for more pie if need be. Or talk some more about Star Trek… (I dated a ST fanatic for 2.5 years, I’m excellent at playing along in such discussions).
Daphne, so you’re good at faking paying attention, and telling your audience what they want to hear?
Do you think that’s how good, honest relationships are built and maintained?

I really want something light. My female parent (see, no alliteration!) used to make roasted pumpkin seeds that were quite fun.
I’ve got to admit I’m pretty stumped right now. I need a reread and I’ll see what I can get.
