Be that as it may, the next poster is me, once again. And I think the next will be **NoClueBoy** , once again. Or maybe not. ---

So what do simulposts do? Does my guess still count if **Aslan** posts after me (he’s still my guess, btw), or is **NoClueBoy** the poster after me? ---

Wrong it was me again. Maybe **Fionn** will be next. Or **Ringo**. Or maybe someone else of no cosequence whatsoever. ---

For some absolutely unknown reason, I predict **iampunha**. 😛 Or given the current thread pace, **Scribble**. ---

I have already predicted that **iampunha** will not be of posting to this thread for some time. I have ways of making sure this prediction stays true. _goes off to hunt for her hungry lions_ ---

Well, I’m posting again. Mainly because I’m supposed to be working, but I just can’t seem to concentrate on the godawful boring crap I’m supposed to be doing. So here I am, frittering away precious moments of my life posting meaningless drivel to a message board. But, hey–there are far worse ways to fritter away precious moments of your life, right? Fritter, fritter, fritter…I like that word. It sounds fluttery and silly. But I digress… **fizzestothetop** will post within 3 posts of this one. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Scribble \* > \*\*Hey–are you saying I’m of no consequence whatsoever?! \*\* Nah… They just don’t like you that way. You’re more like a brother to them. 😃 And **fizzes** ( as opposed to **fizzygood** ), I have balls of my own to look in. Hmm. That sounded wrong. **lel** , I can pencil you in for Thursday after next. Do you need a diamond? Or CZ? Maybe something non traditional, like a star saphire or an emerald? (How am I going to break the news to **Vivagirlygirl**?) **Paul in Saudi** ---
