Nope, it’s **EenyTeenyFreenyWeeny** , surfacing long enough to tell **NCB** that hey, it might be a good idea to copy and paste that Poem For The Ages into SAD’s sig thread after all. Who knows what accolades in return it might garner? What? Oh, come back here, **Lobsang**! ---

Actually I think there’s something wrong wit my comp. Is it me or does ‘An Lú abú’ contain special characters? My comp is showing, after the L and the b a funny symbol. ---

it’s showing the accented u now, but it wasn’t before. It was showing two vertical lines, one of which had a wiggly line with a ball on the end coming out of the top of the left-hand line. _ **lel** _ ---

It was the theme to a TV show when I was very little (mid-to-late 80s). **AbbySthrnAccent** , you have summoned me and I have appeared. I grant you three wishes, wishes that I will fulfill as long as they require no effort whatsoever on my part. **Lobsang**? You still out there? ---
