Ah, you probably wouldn’t then.

Just hang on a minute whilst I curse a bit at these boards for being so damned slow at this hour.

Sorry about the relationship miseries, **Angua** – do you want me to feed your Carrot to my horse? That’s one way of resolving a romantic crisis. 😛

And now, **green\_bladder** will slither in. Slither? Well, how else would a bladder travel?

They stopped slithering centuries back. They now take buses.

Well, it’s good to see the old gang in here again! It was getting kinda lonely.

But now, I must be off to the barn, with a bagful of carrots for my equines. So, **Angua** , upon my return shall I find a special delivery produce package from the UK awaiting me? 😉

We serve only the finest ram’s bladders. Emptied. Cleaned. Steamed. And dusted with powdered sugar with a hint of cinnamon.  
Gah! _This Old House_ is a repeat. Of last week! If you’re gonna repeat a show like that, use something from way back. FerOg’sSake! It’s been on the air for almost 20 years! Plenty to choose from.

Here I is! I was out of town on business since Tuesday. Or was it Wednesday? I don’t know.

Anyway, it’s good to see this thing’s still going, and that we’ve even managed to sucker in a few new recruits.

Now then, where the hell’s **lel**? Why, she’s coming up next…

- Ahem \* **Jaade** , **NCB** is nearly correct:

**ETF** is a _Woman of a Certain Age_. 😉

Will **Happy** be hopping by now? Does he even know where he is in Time, that waiteth for no man?

By the way, just how does one go about adding the trademark symbol to a word or phrase?

Trying to take only ten hours of leave time for a five day vacation makes lel very busy, that’s where lel is! Also, my monitor is nicely turning purple and striped, which isn’t exactly a formula for monitor longevity. However, it is a good excuse to get a new computer if I can get the monitor to last simply another few weeks. (Given my typical computer usage, I could definitely use a new computer anyway.) Therefore, I’m going out to price new computers.

_prognosticator monitor still on, for now_

Hi, **lel**! Hope your monitor makes it till you’ve got the replacement!

And now, for a test™

Hey, it works!!! (Brilliant shaft of sunlight engulfs Doper toiling at keyboard – a neat trick, since it’s well after nightfall)

Thanks, **NCB**! ❤
