I like **Lucky**. Thus mote it be! 😃 Sucks about your BIL though. Hope everything comes out for the best whatever that might be. Yay on the possible free fitbit **Roo**! May the other stuff show up soon. **Jim** glad I could invoke a good memory for ya. Seems like we come together for meals often down at good ol’ St. Pat’s. That’s cause it’s true. Thanks for providin’ the link to the recipe blog **Rosie**. I was gonna offer to when I got to da cave this evenin’. The more I think about it, the more I think I will make death chikin. Thighs are the best for that recipe IMO. I et the last of the taco soup for N.O.L. Plus a cookie. Tummy is very happy right now. ---

Canibilize sounds like he wants to share his wacky tobacky. Maybe that would be cannibislize you. Although that would relax you and make you easier to catch. I imagine there isn’t much meat on a spiders legs so what would be the point? Then again there isn’t much meat on chicken wings either and those are pretty popular. Instead of Buffalo Wings **Swampy** could market Jawja Legs. ---

Hmmm. If I’m called Yeller, DO I HAVE TO TALK LIKE THIS? Hope not. I’m a quiet person. **anyrosein** Oh, we already have assignments. We enjoy reading them. Thinking about them. Talking about them, sometimes. **Silver Tyger** I played with La’adan, once upon a time. I don’t need to get sucked into anything that needs my time. But I’d find hearing about a conlang interesting. **Seanette** I’m pretty sure that Dilbert is a documentary. Just an agglomerated, rather than an integral one. (Folks send him email with their stories.) **FairyChatMom** We got down to 40° last night. Is that similar? Aren’t supposed to crack 70° today. A little rain yesterday, too. Thanks to everyone for the welcomes. May even remember the nickname. You may have to repeat it, though. My short term memory . . . actually, since the Adderall, it’s better than it’s ever been, but that’s still bad. I’m liking the word Blurf. The blurf didn’t leave until nearly ten this morning. **Jynxster** :eek: What kind of casserole do you send for that? And there’s a Mumper’s recipe blog! Coolness! Lunchtime. Haven’t decided what to do with it, but need to get away from the desk. Got a few things done, but have tomorrow (city closed) and Monday (furlough - not to be confused with city closed) off, so I need to clear a good deal more before the end of the day. Deadlines have no respect for weird municipal schedules. Wish me lunch! ---

Death chikin is in the oven. I’m thinkin’ lima beans, steamed squish and rolls to complete the culinary delight. Oh and I’m at da cave. I left at three o’clock. I shall make up for that by irkin’ for an hour or so this evenin’. That is all.
