So, of course, I have to ask: whence the fish slapping? Is this the old mIRC funnybutton come back to haunt me (now that I've graduated to XChat and IRSSI ;-)

Astronuc: I will find some cheese, I will find some broccoli, and I will ship them both to you. :) It would appear that Bush Sr. and I have *one* thing in common...

You've heard of baptism by fryer?

Much thanks *bows*

I'll try not to be too dopey. But if someone can illuminate how my polehode rolls around on my herpolhode in the invariable plane, I'd gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.

Or something.

Now that is a Wimpy introduction. :biggrin:

It's something I started a long time ago. Actually, I started offering fish to newcomers, then someone else started hitting them with the fish. (I think), no telling what I'm responsible for, I could have been the first fish whacker. It is now a tradition. :smile:

Welcome to the forums.

Ooh, a double groaner! :smile:

Where's Tsu? I think he needs to meet the entire sisterhood.

Welcome, ZM99!111 :biggrin:

Hold still, again.

<THWACK>

We ate the last of the fish in the freezer, but now you have some broccoli. :smile: :biggrin: (Ivan and I ALWAYS have broccoli. We hand it out at Halloween.)

Since you're a (WHAT ARE YOU?? NUTS?!?111 :smile: ) friend of Moonbear's, we'll save you a real special seat on the Turbo RV. :wink: Just bring enough Martini's for all of us on the next trip. Ya? :biggrin:

Just so you can tell me from the rest of the Sisterhood, I'm the Sister with the petite size 7 shoe. :biggrin:

Tsu! It's good to see your fuzzy face around here again! Glad they let you escape captivity long enough to post. Thank goodness I've already warned him I'm nuts, or else he might be starting to worry by now. :biggrin: He still might be worrying that everyone is confirming it.

Let's see, would that special seat on the Turbo RV be back where the shackles...um, er, I mean where that nifty metal sculpture is? :devil:

Don't forget to tell him about your Chip 'N Dale obsession!

Oops! Did I just let the cat out of the bag?

o:)

I wonder if Zenmaster99 is as confused as I am right now.

Nah, he's even more confused...confused enough to hang out with me. :smile:

Ahh.. Sister Smallfoot makes an appearance at last. Long time no see, sis! Hey, isn't it almost the time of year for fawns and baby skunks to start showing up at your place?

Walnuts vs. peanuts

I am so glad I've found my fellow nuts. :smile:

Tsu: Yes.
Moonbear: As long as they're fur-lined... o:)
Zapper: So I should learn to speak in a high voice? :wink:
SticksnStones: Hi! Welcome to my world. I'd offer you a seat, but they all seem to have morphed into neutral penguins. :-p
Math Is Hard: Wow! Are any of those bolt-action? :bugeye:

ZM---wondering where to get a habbit (and what ruler is fashionable amongst the modern nun these days?)

Warning - collusion or other fraternization (or is that sororitization?) with the members of the PF sisterhood can be habit forming. :biggrin:

I don't know if ZM is nuts, but he certainly has a very strong constitution. He didn't turn into a pillar of salt after seeing my Disney office in person.

We're very modern nuns and have long since given up rulers. We prefer laser pointers...just ours are customized to be a bit more powerful than those store-bought ones. :devil:

Hmmm...trying to figure out if that's a good or bad sign. :smile: See, and you thought he wouldn't pass the Disney test. Did he sing It's a Small World for you? :biggrin:

Nope, he didn't. In his defense, there was somebody else also who got into see my office (she was utterly shocked!) :)
