Maybe cuts off wasn’t the right turn of phrase there… How about just turns off?

Ok, I got my new can of whipped cream open. And, here’s some more honey. Let me get a refill and I’ll make the next move in lick-tac-toe. Ready misstee?

Now, then, where were we? Hmm…can’t remember. Oh, well, I’ll just start fresh then.

Good evening all, I am once again ready to help out with the entertainment. Anyone know the chorus parts for _Rigoletto_? I have a waterproof score around here somewhere…

Okay, ready maestro?

_Scorrendo uniti remota via,

No, no, no! Watch the conductor’s baton, not mine! Typical tenors. Just so I don’t distract you any further, I’ll sit down.

**SiX** , the new game (IIRC) will be played on the same side, only lower. You’ll have to be creative with the whipped cream as the playing surface is a bit more, ah, convex than the last one. You make your moves in honey, I’ll make mine in chocolate syrup. Ready when you are.

**Kizarvexius** , is that a baton in your hand, or are you just happy to be here? La la la la laaaaa…

And you’re right **Horseflesh** this new playing surface is pleasantly convex. And smooth as well.

Same stakes as last time, **SixSwordS**? You finished with that whacker, or did you cut it off? 😃

\<serves up another round of drinks for those that are still concious\>

**Kizarvexius** , I’m sorry but that “baton” is just too distracting. Would you mind pointing it in a less lethal direction?

I will have another Bacardi Raz[sup]TM[/sup]

_I_, for one, like **Kizarvexius** ’s baton. 😉

Hey now, I think **Six** and **Horseflesh** are spending a lot more time “studying” the game this time around.

Another Raz it is, my dear. Would you prefer to drink it the old fashioned way, or a new, fun way I just recently learned?

As for studying the game, I’m simply admiring the playing surface whilst **SiX** contemplates his next doomed move. If **Kizarvexius** would stop making waves with his baton we might not have to keep redrawing the board and remember our previous moves.

Not that I’m complainin’, mind…  
Say, a Raz sounds pretty good right now.

Hi, I’m with the Department of Health. Have you checked the chlorine levels in this tub recently?

**if6was9** “Does the water ripple when a duck farts?”

Hey! Who brought the duck?

**Horseflesh** I agree to your terms, although I still don’t know about this gardener character… he seems a bit uncombed.  
I’ve spent quite a while evaluating my next move and I have to say I think it is spectacular.

4 **X** 6  
**O** 89

**Kizarvexius** Watch out with that! A party is only fun until someone loses an eye!

As for **JonScribe** , can we see you identification? Or would you rather have a nice Gin and Tonic (Tanq or Bombay saffire)?
