I’m just about to jump in the [shower](http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,47334,00.html). Does that count?

The elephant? Well, he was out back hauling logs. Now I think that **Spangley** is using him to hose this place down. Seems like we made a bit of a mess before you popped in? Have you seen the lake?

Sure, if you don’t mind the [ice or the tourists](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=1776266#post1776266) it can be quite invigorating. Shall we invite the others to join, or would you prefer to go one-on-one?

You ladies go ahead - it’s too cold for me! Besides, I’m going to help **alice** with the clean up.

(drags in industrial Shop Vac, grabs pull start handle)

By the way, any pets or small people in here? Say under 125 pounds? No?

(Vroooomm! Mazola all gone, along with some of the linoleum, a few flowers…)

Oops. Maybe I will join you ladies, ifyoudontmind.

I am not certain that I could take you, but I’d think myself less of a _man_\* if I didn’t give it a try.

Well, in that case…I’m sure a quick dip in the lake will be just what the doctor ordered.

Sorry I’m late. I was hoping to celebrate my 1,000 post here at the party, but instead I got distracted and ended up posting what may be the [most depressing 1,000th post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=1783503#post1783503) the boards have ever seen (no worries, I’m happy as a clam – just a post on a real downer of an issue).

I was wondering, since the place is trashed, and since we have a fair amount of unused paints and crayons, how about we redecorate the walls? Anyone up for a mural?

I haven’t done this since a toga party at Psi U in '83, when the few walls left standing received fine art work. (Unfortunately, the walls which did not remain standing became problematic – few walls, few floorboards, few doors, no windowglass, no heat, no electircity, no water – just some lovely summery drawings on a couple of walls to get us through the Canadian winter. We even had vagrants wander in and complain to us about the conditions. But that is another story.)

Mind if I start with a banyon tree as a backdrop? Lots of branches to play in, leaves to hide behind, and trunks to lay against. That’s the nice thing about banyon trees – several trunks for every tree.

Banyan trees are good; I remember them from when I lived in Hawaii. Shall I put in a few tigers (Bengal, of course) peeping out here and there? How about a fire lizard or two?

Oh, I had to come in. Various “parts” were threatening to freeze and crack off. I think I’ll stick to jacuzzis.

Wait a minute! Save some of the paints! **Ladyfoxfyre** hasn’t been decorated yet! I’m all aquiver…a fresh canvas! Lessee now…definitely something involving flames…hmmm - abstract or representational, **lady**

Well, happy naked 1k **Muffin**! I think redecorating is an excellent idea. I’m sure **Spangley** won’t mind. We have bodypaints, we have bodies, why not use us as human paintbrushes?

Ok, now just dunk your head in this bucket… **Muffin** , you get her feet, I’ll hold her…umm, higher up. We’ll get these trees painted up in no time.

Oh, that’s not what you meant? Sorry, being a little literally minded here.

I think **Muffin** ’s got the idea, I was thinking in terms of things a bit south of the head. And quit calling me “she”. I found it amusing the first few times, but since we _are_ naked after all it’s become a bit of an insult.

Do I want you to re-decorate my condo with body paint and crayons? Um…
