Honestly, I'm pretty sure a well placed baseball card could intervene without half trying. Given all that, though, how on earth have you folks gone nearly a month without saying *anything*? You haven't even said anything *inane*, for chrissakes. Not so much as one mention of pirate penguin on a trampoline. Or a kitten. Nothing. It's *weird*.

I'm worried that you're all trapped under recalcitrant vending machines. I'm halfway hoping that you all went on a three week long bender, and you're now trying to figure out a way to describe the haphazard tattoos you've just discovered on yourselves.

Well let's see - my kitten is about 5 months now and is only still
alive because she's so damned cute I can't kill her no matter how
annoying she gets. Also, she snuggles sweetly when she's in the mood.
And I did get a tattoo (but it was planned, not haphazard) of a
graven image of a stylized skull with wings found on Mother Goose's
tombstone.
