Well, OK. I guess **Rue** can be cruel Sometimes. Even to his Special Friends. **FCM** there will be Cheese at AirmanRobynBabyDope in October. You can Bring more if you want, but you and **FairyChatHubby** are Always welcome at my House, be you Cheese-bearing or cheeseless. ---

Now that hurts **Zap**! I did too send you Something. It was just labeled “Occupant” to be all Mysterious. You didn’t just throw it out without opening it first did ya? Man, that would just be the Worst Thing Ever, since I put so much Thought and Effort into It. -Rue. ---

I would point out that Gruyere is in Switzerland and therefore a Swiss cheese, but I don’t with to be Pedantic. Of course American Swiss cheese is more a style than a Geographical Designation, much like California Champagne, which is made in California and not in Champagne. I like Champagne, but it really doesn’t go well with Cheese. ---

I thought the Mysterious envelope was just another Trinket from my Legions of Devoted Fans. No, I didn’t Open it. But the Bomb Squad was very Courteous and Efficient when they blasted it to Smithereens. Zap! ---

Great, **a35362** , now that voice (from the TV shows) is going to be stuck in my head whenever I see semi-random capitalisation. ---

Thanks **Jodi** , that means A Lot. A lot of What I’m not too Sure, since Godzilla (Gojira!) was either: A. A guy in a rubber suit (I’m guessing, but it could have just as easily been a girl in there) with no visible… bumps. or 1. A computer generated, giant, irradiated, _female_ mutant iguanna. (Note: these are Options, not a List so #III is unneccessarryy. But anyway, Salutations and Greetings **Opal** , if you read this. Just to be Friendly.) Yeah **Zap** , those Bomb Squad guys are just the Best, aren’t They? Did you offer them Tea? That would have been nice. Even if you didn’t have Cheese or even Cookies (that somepeople would call Biscuits). **a35362** , (may I call You **a3**?) you say that like it’s a Bad Thing. Is it? I can’t tell Anymore. And **Shibb** , it’s “Semi-random Capitalisation”. Sheesh. Did you know you can only get “Champagne” from France (of course) and the United States of America and Australia. Some people will tell you “Champagne” only really comes from Champagne which would be, of course, in France. -Rue.
