Wait a minute…if this is gonna be a real thread about chat, then you have to have LION, Ayesha and me split off on some time-lagged thread, only to rejoin and confuse the hell out of ourselves and everyone else with messages that defy the laws of physics and the space-time continuum.

Oh, and Zette’s gotta buy a round for the room, as well.

I tried Opal’s chat, and well, I jsut don’t do chats well. I stammer in my typing. But I got to use the word breast once, so that’s something.
