Quack! It’s little yellow goosie! Underwear. 😉 I propose that we change the rules a little bit. Perhaps we could change the topic after, say, every 20 posts? Or even _more_ thrilling (what?), after _every_ post! Ooooh. ---

Give Roland each exciting new bauble. Lisa, ask daddy, “Dinner?” Yeh, let’s loosen the rules a bit. Every 20 posts works for me. Although freeforall topic-setting could be a blast – just imagine what obscure/ridiculous/outre topics we could set for the next poster! That could get really interesting. ---
