Actually _Smaug_, it is fun _Smaug_. I’m sitting here _Smaug_ reading the web, watching TV, and playing _Smaug_ games. Plus, I can’t _Smaug_ feel a thing! Where is **Nixon**? ---

Hey, **gum** , I bet you typed two :: followed (with no space) by a lower-case p, thus: :😛 **Happy, Happy, Happy** – have you forgotten **ETF** and her annoying habit of strolling through the thread just when you’ve predicted someone else? Like, say, **Lobsang** and his Quarter Horse. ---

I don’t know where **Abby** may be. **ETF** , I don’t have a prognosticator first aid kit. Will a prognosticator blowtorch do? **NCB** , I hate to break the news to you, but Nixon’s been dead for quite a few years now. Oh, right, the next poster could be **Mearl Dox** , but it will more likely be **Happy Lendervedder**. ---

I want to hear what **Coldie** has to say about the awesome [signs](http://members16.clubphoto.com/michelle759912/1648164/owner-daea.phtml) we made for the dopefest. That’s why _I_ want to see **Coldie**. _Not_ to be smacked upside the head. 😛 On the upside, I’ve been dancing naked in my living room to Sophie B. Hawkins: _Damn, I wish I was your lover, I’d rock you 'till the daylight comes, Make sure you are smiling and warm…_ Ambrosia: _Make a wish, baby And I will make it come true Make a list, baby Of the things I’d do for you Ain’t no risk, now In lettin’ my love rain down on you…_ And Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show: \*They were dancing cross the floor, Turning, moving back and forth, They were lovers… One more lonely night for me I looked up, what did I see? Sexy eyes, Movin’ cross the floor, Got me wantin’ more Sexy eyes…\* So, life is good. Now I will (third time’s the charm) predict **withaK**. ---

Funny you should mention the music you’ve been listening to, **sperfur**. I’ve been listening to Big Sugar’s “So Not Over,” myself. (well, the whole album of _Brothers & Sisters, Are You Ready?_ too…) \*I heard that you mentioned my name When you were looking round for someone to blame Well you’re gone now, and ain’t it a shame. You’re talking about: “It’s so over.” Don’t say it’s over. It’s so not over. Please don’t say that. (It’s so not over) Don’t say it’s over It’s so not over\* Also, I’ve been listening to the Creed album _My Own Prison_… in particular, the song “Unforgiven.” _Think I’m unforgiven to this world Took a chance at deceiving myself To share in the consequence of lies Childish with my reasoning and pride Godless to the extent that I died Think I’m unforgiven to this world Think I’m unforgiven_ I predict **Eva Luna**.

Nice try, though. 🙂 (hey, it made me laugh crazily for the first time in eight days… not bad at all on that count) “Capybara” reminds me of when the pastor was doing an illustration for the kids… he mentioned that name, and the kids thought the name was funny. > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by gum \* > **Flamsterette\_X Goodie; spozdogs. ::totally mistified::** **lel** is right… you may not want to know what those are. But seeing as nobody’s told you yet, and you kinda want to know… It’s something my friend **Spoz** invented once when he was drunk at 4 AM in an Adelaide falafel shop. He ordered a hot dog, then decided he wanted hummus and BBQ sauce on it. His friend thought he was nuts, but apparently it tastes like “flavor country” when you’re drunk. (the friend tried it and also thought it was pretty good… not something you’d want to try sober, though) The counter guy eventually wanted a name for these things, so “spozdogs” they became. (since **Spoz** ’s life ambition – aside from making nutty music – has always been to have a meat-flavored snackfood named after him) Basically: one hot dog with hummus, melted cheese, and BBQ sauce. Don’t say **lel** and I didn’t warn you. 😃 F\_X ---
