_As we pass through a million times this night, don’t seem like no sun exists that could eclipse this._

In the meantime, though, you’re stuck with me.

How about…oh… **Mudshark** again. He’s still up and about, posting away.

**MeanOldLady** , I apologize sincerely for my dereliction of duty; I was waaaaay behind in my vanity searching. In my defense, I was at a friend’s house, swimming and grilling. Surely I can’t be faulted for that?

Anyway, here I am! If you had posted right before me (and a preview shows that, alas, you haven’t, although it was only an hour ago), you’d be right!

**Boo Boo Foo** ’s in the silly thread right now. I predict a showing here in the next few minutes.

Sincerest appologies all around for the delay; I predict **Mudshark** , then **Scribble** , then **Lobsang** …but **Lobsang** won’t be along until a more respectable hour, I think.

A more respectable hour being 9:36am (just before board maintenance)

Where are you **Horseflesh**?

Not that it even matters, for all the good posting at SDMB is concerned, but **Zeldar** is a he.

I predict **NoClueBoy** just to return the favor, since he predicted me when I wasn’t even awake.
