You are so good, suitor mine.
How now, mrblue? Can’t let him get away with all that, can you?
Well, let’s see…
Rosebud’s not talking to me… (Sorry if you think I came on too strong–'twas all in good fun.)
DRY, out of some infantile desperation or jealous protective instinct, feels the need to hound me at every turn… (I can take a joke, but can you say “overkill” children? I knew you could…)
Meanwhile, you’re busy with your head in his lap.
I’ll take my cue and my leave… Fare thee well, m’ lady.
Or his head in your lap. Whatever.
Oh Steve! even I know how to answer that.
“Hist! Romeo, hist!-O for a falconer’s voice,
To lure this tassel-gentle back again!
Bondage is hoarse, and may not speak aloud;
Else would I tear the cave where Echo lies,
And make her airy tounge more hoarse than mine
With repetition of my Romeo’s name.”
-R&J A. II, sc. iii

Heavens no, I’ve just been busy (class & work) and haven’t been able to check in as often as I would like!
I enjoy a round o’ good fun 
“Arms, take your last embrace! and, lips, O you
The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss
A dateless bargain to engrossing death!–
Come, bitter conduct, come, unsavoury guide!
Thou desperate pilot, now at once run on
The dashing rocks thy sea-sick weary bark!
Here’s to my love! [Drinks.]–O true apothecary!
Thy drugs are quick.–Thus with a kiss I die.”
R & J, Act 5 scene iii
Can we still use ICQ as a medium?
big worried eyes
What, you’re not going to follow me with the dagger?! Now my ghost will have to haunt you forever on ICQ.
Well, guys~
You don’t have to be concerned about DRY’s “protective instincts” at the moment, as he is…ahem…“otherwise occupied” shall we say?
Right now I am feeding him apricocks and dewberries (with purple grapes, green figs, and mulberries), over in the hot tub.
[sub]Or, I WILL be if I can figure out where to GET some of those things! Does anyone know where I can find an exotic fruit stand at THIS time of night?[/sub]
And I THINK that Rosebud is waiting to do a lap dance for him over at poohpah chalupa’s house, IIRC.
I don’t think that “protective” is his overriding emotion at the moment.
I would be thrilled if anyone finds a verse anywhere in Shakespeare that seems to have anything to do with lap dancing 
“protective” is a code word, Scotti. Shh. Don’t tell. He just wants to cover you. grin
mrblue, as much as I love R&J I promised an old friend I was never going to harm myself. I’m honorable that far. I’ll pine a lot though.
Speaking of pining, where is my beloved DRY?
A ghostly voice whispers…
"PETRUCHIO
Thou hast hit it: come, sit on me.
KATHARINA
Asses are made to bear, and so are you."
:eek:
Thou hast rendered me speechless, mrblue92!
“I dreamt my lady came and found me dead,–
Strange dream, that gives a dead man leave to think!–
And breath’d such life with kisses in my lips,
That I reviv’d, and was an emperor.
Ah me! how sweet is love itself possess’d,
When but love’s shadows are so rich in joy!”
–Romeo and Juliet, Act V, scene i

“The lady doth protest too much, methinks”
–Hamlet, Act 3, Scene ii
Feel the need to hound you? Right. I simply was exchanging what I thought was witty repartee. Much as I assumed you were doing in your birthday thread.
Overkill? I thought we developed a nice pattern–you make a (good natured–or so I thought) barb and I toss one back your way. “Overkill” would be if you actually stopped posting to a thread and yet the other person continued to take shots at you. (I think I recall a thread where that actually happened.)
I did not mean to give offense. I won’t joke with you any more. I made the mistake of thinking you could take what you dish out. I’ll be more careful, in the future, to joke with those who can.
“Haste still pays haste, and leisure answers leisure,
Like doth quit like, and Measure still for Measure.”
–Measure for Measure, Act 5, Scene i
Okay, unrelated tangent, but still…
I tried to call you Dan. I failed. But I do love you!
Call me what?
Try again. (By the time I could find an appropriate Shakepearean cite, it’d probably be too late for you to call.)
I felt I tried to be good natured, but think I received some uncalled for returns. I realize I started this, but I also tried to temper it with the very innocuous “Retract thy contempt” post and you seemed intent on continuing, most harshly in this last round. The only real insult I gave you was that you were possibly evolved from a monkey, as I said possibly did Cecil himself (in case you aren’t aware, that evolution argument was a reference from the movie Gettysburg). Meanwhile, you’re slashing haphazardly at my manhood and intelligence. Regardless of your intent, a predominantly one-sided exchange gets old rather quickly.
As far as the other thread goes, I expected you to return after parrying your seemingly unprovoked attack, and didn’t think I ever seriously insulted you there. I’m sorry if you were offended by that.
I would hope we can forget this.
