Ahh, you’re cool Gigi. We would have missed Skald too much if he left. For a straight guy he’s pretty awesome. (or at least manages to appear that way on here)
I know. I was funnin’ ya. By the way, did you change your name from something else? I don’t remember seeing your name in these fora until just recently, as you’ve started a bunch of interesting threads.
Anaamika, have you gone mad? You KNOW the monkeys have strict orders never to harm YOU. If there was a howler monkey close enough for you to brush it away, you were clearly in imminent danger of being attacked by someone else. You got any enemies?
I shall miss your threads and your replies greatly – I have learned much from the likes of you. And by all means, you must let us know the title of your tome when it is published. I am an aspiring novelist myself, and I intend to single-handedly re-invigorate the industry of literature by buying a copy of every new title published! I assume you will re-subscribe with the proceeds from your first royalty check. I’d think starting new threads on SDMB would be a higher priority than paying the mortgage or buying groceries, eh?
Forget the reckless talk of pie, though. Six friggin’ months on this website, I have not tasted one bite of pie!
Crap! Ya walk away from your computer in the middle of a reply to do some work for The Man, and the whole damn world changes!
Welcome back, Skald, though you were never really gone – outta’ here and back in in the space of a single thread! And thank you, Gigi, for helping to keep Skald in his place – right here!
Hey, is that a piece of key lime pie? Wait a minnit! Omigod, it’s a howler monkey in a clever key lime pie disguise!!! No! No! Noooooooooo!!! AAAACCKKKKKKKKKKHHHHHHH!!!
Sunrazor, I’m going to tell you this ONE MORE TIME: When the “incoming teleport” alert lights up on your teleport pad, read the manifest BEFORE you press “Accept.” Okay?
