Sure. How about an SOB? The trowel of Damocles was funny.

I just realized I made eggnogg last night, and it's still in the fridge! Can't mix it with an SOB, though. Good thing the SOB is illusory!

I don't usually hang out in the bar. What's the attraction, anyway?

What's the attraction of any bar? It certainly isn't the decor, or the food, or maybe even the drinks (usually). It's the people.

Too damn flimsy and takes too long to drill the holes. Now I just need an inspiration.

Actually I know what I want to make, but just need the resources.

I want to build a 12 foot garden trowel and put it in my front yard.
Well Sput, if you'd like you can borrow my wire feeding mig welder.

I kind of felt the same Ranger, but everyone hangs out in here so if you want to be heard, well, you can usually count on being heard here.

That's the only kind I know how to use. How perfect. Too bad you're so far away. Which reminds me of a song...

I usually just scroll past it, then come in periodically to make fun of the patrons or post a picture of which their babblanter reminds me. Or something I wanted to share but couldn't find a pretense elsewhere.

The song is Carole King's 'So Far Away' which I will not post the lyrics to since that only ends up in the whole bar posting lyrics of the songs running through their heads.

Cheers.

Giggles, I'll take on if them black beers if you've got one to spare.

I just now realized (two weeks after the fact) that the fact that I now have internet access means I can catch up on my Red Meat! Hallelujah!
