I was reading another thread and was hit with this message from Satan, just nonchalantly slipped in among the daffodils:

> [@](#):
>
> The disappointment I have by not being able to take my road trip is very public and very real.
> 
> That said, I feel happy because in spite of the quantity of wonderful people I will be missing because I cannot do this right now, I feel that the quality of one person I hope to spend a lot of time with over this month (and much, much longer) will make up for that and then some.

I am completely out of the loop about this. Satan, I though there was a standing rule that you were required to keep us all informed about your personal life, starting new threads as necessary. Are you going to fill us in?

Apparently it won’t be long before he’s filling _someone_ in… 😉

(sorry Satan! I couldn’t resist!)

So yes, please! Do tell!

I sense another felching thread coming on…

Hey, inquiring minds want to know!

Well, since the cross-country progression of Satanic Minions fell through, I’m glad there are _hints_ that season may yet be merry and warm for him.

Not that we’re so tacky we’d press for details. But if he feels the need to share each and every intimate detail…well, we’re _here_ for him.

Sounds certain Satan should scored soon.  
Selective supposedly, sans serious stuff.

Sorry. So-long.

Seems to me that Satan’s post in the “Heaven” thread over in GD is very, very suggestive. But hey, I could be wrong…

Could you drop just one or two more hints? I think I’ve almost got it!

Between this and the Flora McFlimsey mystery, I can’t eat, I can’t sleep, and I can’t get off the computer until I get at least a little satisfaction.

Satan, so what’s stopping you from giving us the details, I see nothing in that post that precludes your dishing for us.  
But, I happen to know the dirt so no need to spill on my account, unless of course there are some especially specific details you’d like to unburden yourself with.
