The person below me

[Eric]

Well, I'm a fruit. Not sure how much of a ninja I am.



tpbm is in love with Sumo Oranges.

[OregonRed]

I do love Sumos. I also adore Blood Oranges, Valencias, and Navels. I am just a huge fan of citrus.

TPBM prefers Cherry.

[theCryptofishist]

I dunno. Cherry's a bit fragile, and I'm kinda an elephant.
TPBM agrees that blueberries are quite special.

[Trishntek]

Reminds me of being on the Alaska tundra in August. We couldn't take a step without walking on blueberries and strawberries. Little sweet bundles of goodness!

TPBM like strawberry-rhubarb pie

[catinthefunnyhat]

Who, in their right mind, wouldn't? I freakin' love it, especially with a small dollop of good vanilla ice cream....
Man, I was hungry before I read your post. Now I'm ravenous.

TPBM wonders if ravens are really all that hungry.

[Trishntek]

It's not that they're hungry, it's that they'll eat anything they find

TPBM has seen a raven eating a dead skunk

[theCryptofishist]

No, but I have slept across the street from a rookery.
TPBM is looking for a vet to adopt her/him.

[maryanimal]

Not at this time.
tpbm is late...

[catinthefunnyhat]

Usually, yes. Not right now. However, I should to bed soon, or I shall be late tomorrow!
TPBM is counting something, not sheep.

[jella]

Well Im too late to make it now so screw it ...back to drinking



tpblowme makes a killer Martini


ummm edit to say jinx
Edit # 2 to answer tpbm..I"m couting all the blessing my family would enjoy if I won the lottery tomorrow
Edit # 3 to amend edit # 2

[Eric]

I swore off martini's when they became triple shots of gin in a big glass. For me a killer martini is 3 or 4 parts really good gin, 1 part vermouth (just swishing it in the glass & pouring it out is a reason to get fired as far as I'm concerned). Shake over ice & strain into a glass. Add a dash of olive water & one olive. Done.


tpbm thinks more alcohol should be paired with chocolate.

[catinthefunnyhat]

a nice single-malt scotch and a very small piece of dark chocolate are a wonderful pairing. red wine and chocolate too, but i had to give up red wine
i wonder whether tequila and chocolate would go together?
as for mixing withalcohol, i'm not such a fan of chocolate for that.

TPBM thinks I just haven't had a really good chocolate martini.

eric: you can mix me a real martini any time. it sounds like you know what you're doing.

[Trishntek]

Agree, Persiphone's Martini Bar in San Antonio has the best in my experience.

TPBM has had a Hemorrhagic Brain Martini

[International Incident]

Given I had to google it, I think it is safe to say I haven't. Google didn't know that much about it. maybe Google had one of them and can't remember what they are - those Hemorrhagic Brain Martini's are likely to fry your brain. Maybe I have had one and that is why I can't remember having one.

TPBM loves the simplicity of a good Bloody mary

[Trishntek]

I love the simplicity of good absinthe louche with sugar water.

TPBM cannot stand absinthe

[International Incident]

My body cannot stand it. That doesn't mean I don't like it though.

TPBM thinks they are sometimes a green fairy

[Eric]

A lot of people assume I'm a faerie, but I'm not- they're too hippie for me.


tpbm understands my statement

[Trishntek]

Yes I do,,, does that make soooo over the hill?

TPBM actually went through a time of experimenting with Tiny Tim's philosophy

[theCryptofishist]

I don't know about that, but I love his last record.

[youtube][/youtube]

TPBM is making experiemental yurts.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Nope. If I get back to the playa this year, I'm going to do a good old-fashioned monkey hut, like last time.

TPBM is making experimental yogurt.

[Trishntek]

Not at this time, but I have made my own yogurt many times

TPBM loves yogurt on their favorite cereal

[theCryptofishist]

Muesli and yogurt, breakfast of fish.
TPBM eats poptarts.

[Simon of the Playa]

all day every day

tpbm wonders how it is im not dead yet.

[theCryptofishist]

No, I'm sure it's hatred of your dreaded rivals that keeps you on your toes.
TPBM is kept together with chewing gum and baling wire. And possibly duct tape

[Trishntek]

Most definitely duct tape,,,, super glue,,, and a few pins too!

TPBM has never spent a night in a hospital

[theCryptofishist]

Oh, I've spent weeks in two...
TPBM remembers the cold war.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Yes, I do. It ended around the time I finished high school. I remember kind of idolizing Gorbachev as a peacemaker.

TPBM will blow up balloons this weekend.

[Trishntek]

Yup! Did the duck and cover drills, the bomb shelter orientations in grade school and jr high school,,,, WE SURVIVED! YAY!

DAMNIT! Does blowing up condoms count?

TPBM has something made of fabric so saturated with playa dust, it stands on its own.

[catinthefunnyhat]

I wish.
I had a blanket that I took to BM, and it smelled dusty for years... I loved the smell of it. Didn't wash it, just kept it around to sniff.... But after 12 years, the smell has faded. Time to go back and re-dustify!

TPBM grows carrots.

[theCryptofishist]

No, but thank you for reminding me I have peas to eat.
TPBM is pretty free association.
