:eek:

**Scylla** , why I declare. I’m glad you like what you see, Sugar, but I could have sworn I was wearing some cut off blue jean shorts just a minute ago. 😕 It must be real dark in here, or _someone’s_ farther along in this drinkin’ game than I am.

[celestina turns toward the bar]

Hey bartender! Where’s my drink, hon? I’ve got to catch up with my host here.

Oh, and **lno** , even though I know better, every time I see you name, hon, I keep thinking it is **Ino** What’s your name stand for, if you don’t mind my askin’.

Incidentally, the i isn’t the only thing small about you. That’s what your girl told me anyway.

Ok **Tripler** , here’s the rules:

If a goal is scored on you, you take a shot of whiskey…

If a goal is scored on me, you take two shots of whiskey…

If the ball leaves the playing field, you take three shots of whiskey…

If you spin, you follow up a shot with a draft…

If you puke, you lose 5 goals…

Ok, let’s bet…$50 a game…

GAME ON!

Yeeee-haw, **Scylla**! Sure, bring on your Limbaugh recording, listening to him talk always reminds me of the bean-eating scene in _Blazing Saddles_.

[Right here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1483072#post1483072), sugah.

Now, Airman, I drove your wife down to Chicago. Right now, you owe me a beer, not some insults. Or, y’know, you could mosey on over behind Scylla with that pool cue in hand…

That’s funny, your wife and I didn’t see you there. Then again, we were in some seedy hotel room the whole time, so I guess that makes sense.

And here’s your beer. Yuengling Original Backwash. Enjoy.

Take more than that to walk out…

Aww, hell, ain’t nobody here but a bunch of cringing toadies of the Ruling Class! I been thumped by Oakland cops, I don’t scare easy. Besides, I saw you back there sneaking that Karpov vodka into the Absolut bottle.

Tripler, Yeticus: I want to play. How about mixed doubles? I play goalie.

No spinning. Anything over than 4 pi is a penalty, and the other team gets the ball.

So we need one more player-- anyone?

Bonus question: Do we need a male or a female?
