Yes, Papa Zappa has finally been reincarnated. He’d been making noises about subscribing and never did anything about it so I finally took matters into my own hands (er, fingers and Paypal account) and did the deed for him. Always a woman’s work.

So a warm (slimy, squishy) welcome to my newly-named partner-in-crime, **Typo Knig**. Bring on the gaots and the squck and the whips ‘n’ chains. He’s looking forward to it. Really.

Naturally, the kids will now mostly be known as **Dwezil** and **Moon Uit**

Oy, **Vey!** Bubbe, you’ve got the wrong vempire! ;j

Thanks, Biffy! And, seriously, Happy Holidays to all - except [thread=347877]Bill O’Reilly[/thread]. Well, even he deserves more than a lump of coal. Say “America - the Book” and “Indecision 2004” 😉

Let’s see … “snog” … isn’t that a Brittishism? Google says  
“smooch: snuggle and lie in a position where one person faces the back of the others” (from a page that’s now gone 404).

Umm … Air kiss right back atchya, Kythereia.

About the other stuff in the definition - I’m married. Remember, **Mama Zappa** introduced us. Um, but thanks!

I’ve enjoyed SDMB for years. It’s fun to de-lurk.

I’m worried about him, too. He confused his psych meds with growth hormone. Now he has to sleep outside of the castle. Also, the woman, the apartment building, AND Peter Jackson are all suing him. Uneasy lies the head …

It could be worse. There’s Santa’s brother Ernie.

- He knows when you’ve been showering!
