If your sister, who happens to be one of my _absolute favorite_ posters, says you’re cool, then you’re definitely a friend of mine.

Good luck on the boards, **Luna** , and have a blast!

And thanks to the rest of you, she’ll respond when she gets back.

[C. Montgomery Burns voice] Excellent![/C. Montgomery Burns voice]

Glad to see you, **Luna Child**. Have a seat, get comfortable. Can I get you anything? Snacks? A beverage? No? It’s nice to have you here. Just sit for a while. Don’t go anywhere. I, uh, I’ll be right back. Don’t move.

If she doesn’t know, I could always ask your mom.

While I’m thinking of it, do you suppose you could scan that page out of her yearbook that she was so insistent that I not see? I think it had something to do with Mock Awards or a section thereafter…

Bwahahaha!

See, Kathryn, if you had told me everything when it came up eight months ago, I wouldn’t have to ask now. In front of all. these. people. 😃

And you’ll notice I’m not one to forget something I’m very curious about…

(C’mon Anna, embarrass your sister. You know you want to. Remember all those times she’s embarrassed you?)

oh, i remember alright…

_falls out of chair laughing_

But I won’t embarrass her. I’ll wait and see if I can get you to beg first…

to iampunha:

1. Anna
2. You’ll have to explain this one…
3. I’m skipping this one. I didnt write my profile, my sister did. You want someone to spell it, get her to spell it for you.
4. Unless some member of my family has gone off and become a Wiccan while I wasn’t looking, I think so.
5. _pokes sister_ _hugs sister_ good enough?
6. okee…  
7.That’s a good question. I dont know.  
8.Nope. You’re gonna have to try harder than that to scare me off.

**Luna** Has been as far wast as Seattle and as far east as NYC. I know I was there too.

And yes, I have been lax in introducing her to Monty Python. I figured that there are certain things that need to be done by friends.

And yea, she’s good people.

Hmmmmmm. **Luna** and **Medea** one and the same? Or does **Luna** usually speak of herself in the third person?

Next, the royal ‘we’, perhaps?

Welcome, **Luna Child**! Y’know, your sister’s one of the bestest posters on the board, [sub]even if she doesn’t return e-mails \<cough cough\>[/sub]:), as well as one of the few Dopers who I’ve met in person. I’m sure that you’ll follow in the same vein.

That said, I brought you a little…_surprise_…heh heh heh…

BRING IN THE KEG!!!

…  
…  
…  
…  
Errrrrrrr…I \*said…\*BRING IN THE KEG!

\<The door opens, and **Medea’s Child** walks out\>

Wait a second…I specifically asked for the keg to be brought out by scantily clad men, not you! And you’re not carrying a keg…hey, what’s that big stick for?

OW! OWWWW! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Somebody call 911!
