I’m posting this to alert any other Johnny-come-latelys who have never taken a look at [http://www.teemings.com](http://www.teemings.com), the fantastic SDMB e-zine.

I’d visited briefly before, but didn’t peruse it thoroughly until today, when I was directed there by **Tuba** ’s announcement on the subject of September 11. ([In the Wake of the Fire](http://www.teemings.com/extras/wakeofthefire/) is deeply touchingl, BTW. A big shout-out to all of the contributors and specifically to **Gaudere** for the graphics… top notch.)

Anyway, if you want to read some excellent prose, humor, poetry, etc. get your butt to Teemings.

Need further prompting? Check out this hilarious submission from MPSIMS’ very own **Scylla**. He’s fit, intelligent, hilarious and in love with his wife… I’m in deep smit. 🙂

WARNING: Do not drink a beverage of any kind while reading this as the liquid may end up spurting from your nostrils.

Ouch!

Did I bump into something?

Excuse me. Sorry about that.

Hey **Scylla** baby!

I forwarded the link to the The Magic Nose Gynecologist story to a bunch of friends… You have fans, my man.

BTW, sixty-four THOUSAND posts!?! Jayzus.

Is **Scylla** the “rock” or the “hard place”? I can never remember…

Another great read as usual.

Thanks **Scylla** for walking the line between likeability and kickass 'tude. Sometimes you walk the tightrope while getting tomatoes tossed at you, but it’s great spectacle. And think of it this way: you’re often the only one with enough tomato juice on hand to wash the stink off these boards.

Keep a stiff…

Scylla is a rock.  
At least on his good days.

Or does Scylla rock with his hard place? 😉
