I played poker with the pied piper in Pittsburgh in the rain. Does that count?

**Vanilla** ice cream, anyone?

I once cracked corn with a carny on a cotton gin.

I’m here! I’m hre at last! Sorry to disappoint you all.

That spozdog sounds pretty good, actually. But then, I like almost any meat-type food with barbecue sauce and cheese. I’d have thrown some onions on the hot dog along with the hummus, though.

Brains, brains brains, brains… Oh, sorry, wrong thread. DAMN but I’m hungry right now, and supper still three hours away.

**gum** , will you whip up a batchof warfries for me? But hold the mayo. Yes, you can hold it in a jar, not your hand.

Well, you’re the first one to say it doesn’t sound bad at all. **Spoz** told my brother about it once when I was trying to explain what they were… he thought it was gross. (and he eats some weird things himself at times!) In fact, everyone thinks it’s gross. (they’d take the BBQ sauce and the melted cheese, even though those things might not go well together… but when it comes to the hummus, they’re outta there!)

Hmm… I can predict what **Spoz** would most likely say to that: “Raw onions with the hummus? That’s just WRONG…”

But to each their own tastes… I’ll tell him what you think.  
I predict **Happy Lendervedder**.

Screwed-up predictions?! Noooooo… 😉

I’ve left **Spoz** a couple of offine ICQ messages; we’ll see whether he responds to them or not. Since they concern his invention, he might… but since they also concern these boards, he may not. We’ll see.

When my dad drops a big ol’ bail of hay in the field for his horses, the boy horses look like they want to have intercourse with it, if you know what I mean.

I really like a nice juicy steak, but I can’t recall ever being aroused by one.

I think **EddyTeddyFreddy** ’s going to drop by next to explain why a pile of alfalfa can cause a stallion to unsheathe.

Whoa there! I never heard of that before. Although I don’t hang out with stallions.

I will guess, though, that it’s an expression of relaxed bliss. My gelding Bennie always drops when I’m grooming him before and after a ride. I dunno, maybe it’s the face-strokes and eyerubs I lavish on him, but it gets kinda embarrassing at times. I mean, he’s so… so… _obvious_ about it, and he leaves it out there even when I lead him out of the grooming area. He looks relaxed and happy, too. I guess he really loves me, huh?

**NoClueBoy** , don’t you dare say what you’re thinking!

**EddyTeddyFreddy** What’s wrong with mayonaise? \*yes, I’m holding it \* Mayonaise belongs on fries. You might as well say: Hold the fries.

**Flamsterette\_X** You think maybe **Spoz** might sell his invention for millions of dollars?

I don’t think anyone is still up and about, but predicting anyway: **Angua**

This si what **Spoz** has to say about the whole spozdog thing and your thoughts on it:

> [@](#):
>
> (a) I once tried a “spozdog” sober… and, found it to be seriously wrong… y’see… the subtle mix of BBQ sauce and homous only really works the more drunk you are… coz it works as the ultimate counterbalance to beer… but, on it’s own… bleh! I’ve discovered after 6-8 beers it really tastes it’s best (I’ve often gone for 2 spozdog’s in this condition…)
> 
> (b) I haven’t experimented with adding more to the spozdog… but, I’d assume the drunk rule would apply… the more weird toppings I add… the drunker I need to be to enjoy it…
> 
> © but yeah, sober… I’d happily do a hotdog with cheese + onions + BBQ sauce… add some diced bits of bacon… and you’ve got y’self a winner… but, it takes a drunken digestive system to handle the homous included into that…

However, I have no idea whether he’ll see his invention for millions of dollars. Guess you’ll have to see whether I’m patient enough to let ICQ load in the morning, **gum**.

And I predict **lel** for the heck of it.

Of all the songs that Eric sang to me yesterday in the car, why is “Hark The Herald Angels Sing” stuck in my head? It’s months till Christmas, after all…

Also, why can’t I sleep? I need sleep…
