Don't want either of those, actually.

Larry Niven wrote for the cartoon. It is better than DS9.

Now you're just trying to pick a fight.


Even if the cartoons were grossly underrated.

What'll it be, sir?

The W stand for Warren?

Because that would be cool.

Nah, it's William. But it's still pretty cool 'cause it was my dad's middle name too.

Haven't seen the old man in more than 20 years, but I still love him. He and I are a lot alike in more ways than I'm comfortable table with.

See, I can pseudonym

And maybe one or too more...

Today I found out that my friend broke up with his fiance. This is sad because we were going to have a Branch Tedian wedding, complete with a blood fountain and a dozen little people in robes carrying torches. I'm upset, as you can tell. I really wanted to do this because we have yet to have a Branch Tedian wedding.

I'm not really sure that's a bad thing, Ted, given how you describe it.

WTF are you talking about? Naked people high as a Keibler gathered around a blood fountain professing their lust for each other is friggin' awesome! I even was working on my goat leggings for the event so we could all do the goat dance around the bonfire.

Is that even legal?

Thinking of various zoning ordinances here.

We'd do it on somebody's farm or something.
But once we get our own land, we can do whatever religious activity we want--including orgies.

Orgies, eh?

Not so sure about the blood and the midgets, but I can see the appeal of an orgy.

Everybody does.

It would require a LOT of alcohol though on my part.

In the Branch Tedians, the various alcohols are saints and drugs are archangels. And they all have holidays.

Plus, our polygamous marriages only last 24 hours. This is because we fully expect the world to send soon and we're just partying until it happens.

I'm writing a short story in first person present tense. I'm that guy.

If you can make it work, go for it.

Do you like bbq?

After my first marriage, 24 hrs seems too long.




That was cynical and bitter of me, wasn't it?

Novel I'm reading now is written that way, and it works beautifully for the story. So go for it.







Guess this means I should light the grill, eh Hounds?

I'll go get the sauce.

*wheels in the keg*

I can't eat bbq in the winter. Too cold outside can't bbq.
