Not it! I don’t buy rings anymore. I have a habit of losing them.

I have only known **harmless** a while but since then we’ve had:

**Zombies  
Thread massacres  
Harems  
Orgies  
Furries  
2 Birthday Threads  
and many, _many_ sexual innuendos**

Hell, I’d pay double for that show! 😃

BTW, considering your living-impairment **harmless** , isn’t it considered necrophilia? :eek:

**Bambi Hassenpfeffer** says he’s in. Well at least there will be one big burly hairy man who would be interested in me then 😉 . (Specially since I ain’t **vunderbob’s** type.)

I never thought that I would associate the name **Bambi** with big, burly, hairy men. Disney is now forever changed in my mind :eek: 😃

I nominate **BiblioCat**!  
Knows how to make great shakes!  
A must-have for the post-orgy snack-attack!

We’ll work on that Bailey’s thing. 😃

Aww, shucks. I’m quite flattered.

(You’re not going to change my mind on the Bailey’s though… nasty stuff, that.)

Well, no one is expecting you to _drink_ it!

Official taste tester #69 reporting for duty. 😃

Back to the nuptuals, I have a ring. It’s silver and a bit tarnished but I love it. Any takers? Plus we do have to decide which moderator to ask.

I like silver. And I have silver polish, so I can get rid of the tarnish just like that.

Oops, lookit that, I spilled this Bailey’s all over me. What ever shall I do?
