Ahh, thanks! Cool link, I like the example provided.

LMD, on what base did you live in Germany? I lived in Heidelberg last summer! Woot! I'm REALLY missing it.

eh, i don't really hide who I am...it is who I am to keep things like that in my head, for my own pleasure

I don't really have any impressions of the whips and chains thing...it just doesn't appeal to me much. Some of the costumes and the like are cool...the rest of it just doesn't do anything for me.

Weird dream last night.

I dreamed I was having an argument with Dick Butkus ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Butkus for those who don't know) who was cooking something on the stove at the time. Note that in the dream Dick had significantly longer hair than he usually sports in public. Anyway we are arguing and I get around to telling him that I really don't like him. Why? I don't know. In real life I can't say I have any reason to dislike him. But this is the dream.

So just as I'm telling him that I think he's a twit or something equally vile his significantly longer than you'd expect from Dick Butkus hair catches fire. Well what are you going to do when the hair of the person your arguing with is suddenly aflame? I start beating around his head with a towel or napkin or somesuch to put out the flames. So Dick Butkus turns to me hair still aflame and inquires, "Why are you doing this you don't even like me." I replied, "Just because your a jerk is no reason to leave you with your hair on fire."

Just thought I'd share.

But no need to hide, I'm pushing him out the back door with a mannequin that somebody has lead him to believe was the second runner up in the 1975 miss america pageant and a bottle of exceedingly bad vodka. I doubt he'll be back.

Relax. I wasn't asserting a claim to intelectual property rights. I was making fun of the people who would assert intelectual property rights in such an instance (Viz Donald Trump with "You're Fired" TM) go ahead and sundae people all you want.

it always amazes me where ferrets can get - the really small gaps they can get through- I left the door open the barest inch the other day, and suddenly there the ferret was in front of me, door hadn't budged, she'd just squeezed on through.

And ithink that is possibley the cutest cat in the universe, why do they love to sleep on electrical equipment?

very nice pictures, :D.

I was going to waffle on about dreams, but the topic has moved back on to food fights. Must post more.
