Sorry about the late Dusk; it’s likely to happen next week and the week after that, too (I have meetings over lunch for the next few Thursdays that have higher priority than this game). And thank you for not making a bunch of last-minute votes this time; that makes my job a lot easier :).

Obligatory comment about how they didn’t have to. Perhaps from someone who shouldn’t say it.

Haha! Yes. Everything’s coming up Pond!

I’m gonna be back here mixing drinks and inventing new ones till the cows (algae?) come home. Sure, it’ll be a hungover Summer, but yippie kiyaie!

Boom-shanka.

There’ll be dancing in the streets of… the pond? That doesn’t really work, does it?

In honor of **Kelly** , a Rotten Rotifier. It’s full of Green Goop, alcohol, and tiny green parasols.

I also mixed up a batch of Golden Showers on my way back from the little slits’ room because I know how popular those are.

I didn’t make conscious note of it until Kelly came up Scum. I was looking for the classic Red I guess.

The nice thing about being dead is that you can only drink things that have been “killed”, which pretty much limits one to drinks with enough alcohol content that they’ll actually burn. _eyes Freudian warily_  
Go town!

I’m off to Bruges for the weekend, £60 to take a car through the chunnel. I’ll be back Sunday.

If I grew up on a farm, and was retarded, Bruges might impress me but I didn’t, so it doesn’t.
