Oh, look, it’s one of my most favorite shots!

This gentlemen, right there, he mistook Mr Elbows for my Dad. Not only did he think this, but he was very hard to convince otherwise.

Of course I fell in love with the bugger, though he wasn’t much to look at, had to have a photo.  
Sometimes I still send him money, I thought he was really lovely.

/me curses **The Mermaid** for getting him eaten, and for misspelling ElusiveMiser.  
I most likely misspelled “misspelling.”

Put that in your sig line and smoke it!

You weak weak people. I told you how to kill this thing back a few pages ago and yet, here we are. Anyone who posts on this thread has no will. No resolve. Not one bit of self dicipline.

This thread…it will not die.  
It will not go gentle into that good night.  
It will not be bludgeoned, stabbed, squashed, burned, scalded, humidified, dried, hijacked, lojacked, cursed, blessed, or enchanted.  
It is immortal, and 13 pages long.  
I’ve read 3 of them. Enough, I cry. Make the bad thread stop.  
It rages, rages against the dying of the light.  
Listen. You can hear the screaming.

…now this is our guide for our Trek to Macchu Pichu. Her name is Maria and she was a wonder.

Of course, Mr Elbows and myself, we were the oldest folks on the trek, so we didn’t see much of the group.  
We were generally far, far behind them.

She does this trek once a week, can you imagine? I never, NEVER intend to do it again in my lifetime.

But, you have to admit, she’s just lovely.

Let’s see where did I hide that super-mega bong-o-death I had during my college years.

Damn boy this shit is awful. In fact it smells like real shit. I think I know why, it must be because you are pulling your material out of your ass.
