So your hands won’t be coming into play in this little battle?

I suppose that depends on the 2 (3?) of you.

Oh goody! When will this battle be considering that the two (three) of us are never really posting at the same time? (last night was a fluke)

Just start the thread and let the combatants post when they may, I suppose.

Sorry to keep you guys waiting!

Now I suppose we could wrestle in lime jello, but you know, I’m not much of a wrestler. I’d end up broken, battered, and really sticky.

However, I think I have another solution.

Found this on the front page. So, Euty, it’s up to you. Either we can jello wrestle for your affections, and you can marry the winner, or you can marry _all_ of us (including Scotticher–excellent choice, BTW!), and then we can jello wrestle just for fun! 😃

Well, I really don’t have any problem with that as long as everyone else, especially the partcipants, don’t. What say ye?

Can’t say that_I_ have a problem with it either.

(It’s almost like sharing Cristi and Euty both!)  
(Scotti, too, if she’s into that!)

So, Euty, is that a yes to my proposal?

And evilbeth, while your intent is quite obvious, you haven’t actually _proposed_ yet. So, you gonna do it, or what? 😃

**Euty** : The very least you could do is let her get on the other knee as well. It’s easy enough to cramp up when you’re on BOTH knees for a long time.

Not that I’d know anything about that.

:: getting down on one knee and presenting three matching diamonds :::

With all the love, respect and general horniness I have to offer to three of the most beautiful, sweetest, interesting, thoughtful, caring, and sexiest women on the SDMB, **Scotticher** , **EvilBeth** , and **Persephone** ; I hereby ask the three of them to be my virtual wife, to love and honor in virtual matrimony till death do us part or until the Chicago Reader finds out what we’ve been up to and takes the MB down.
