        Das ist die Deutsch collektiv noun fur die voofenschnauzer.

        Eine voofenschnauzer.
        Zwei voofenschnauzer.
        Drei voofenschnauzer.
        Eine woofren der voofenschnauzer. RUNNEN! IST EIN WOOFREN DER VOOFENSCHNAUZER MIT DER SHARPENCHOPPERS!

        make the dreem for you women

        At first I had the sneaking suspicion woofren was this guy’s concept of the plural form of “wife”. When I got to the section quoted above, I was completely convinced. This guy’s a polygamist who thinks he’s able to make other men seem like God’s gift to women. I’m glad he felt the need to share his secret ’cause this post was a good start to yet another cubicle-bound day.

          Exactly.
          Or semi-precisely, perhaps, since I’m not “up” on the subtleties of initials classified singles-speak.
          So. I’ve assumed (yes, yo sé que soy un burro)
          M4W is man “for” woman
          W4M is woman “for” man
          and so on–if with a confusion of should a male person peruse W4M or M4W?

          So, M4MW scanned as man for man-woman, and then that song lyric on “she was a he” earworms me, and I need to bash my head with the bricks again (or attempt to sort out where the TCP/IP stack address is in the Registry for my stinking desktop computer which refuses to communicate through its network connection . . . )

      One would hope your diet allows you to eat M&Ms. I am currently on a low glycemic index diet (and have been for the past 3 years). I no longer have any sugar cravings, and don’t actually miss candy/sugary treats anymore. However, I do occasionally have nightmares that I have eaten candy or something like that, and fallen completely off the wagon. I am very glad when I wake up and realize that it was all just a dream.

        [names triva corey]
        Wolfram is the German version of Ramiro.

        Which makes more sense than how Giuseppe = William.

        The Italian diminutive for Giuseppe is “Bepe” (beh-PAY).

        And the Mexican diminutive for Ignacio is Nacho.

          And then you’ve got Istanbul, which is Constantinople, and it’s nobody’s business but the Turks.

          That’s a good earworm to take to bed.

      Everyone else is doing it… I bowed to peer pressure.

      I’m still tweaking everything so an announcement seemed a bit premature.

          As per the gamer test:

          You should try Fandemonium. It’s almost in your backyard and is pretty cheap as cons go.

      It’s that sort of day is all. I felt the undeniable urge to yell ‘holy Hell’ to someone but it was inappropriate for work so… yeah. Emergency walk-ins are fun, since we’re a ‘no parvo’ and ‘no walk-in’ clinic. And when the dog is leaking bloody diarrhea onto our floor and we have NO history of this pet, it makes us all a little irate. Sufficient to say we have all been well bleached to the point that the clinic cat was rolling around high.

        I think that qualifies for a Holy Hell

    Umm…

    No.

    I’m pretty sure if I think about this at all, I will turn into a Sparky. Even thinking about thinking about it is making my brain hurt.

    One would hope that an ocelot would have more sense than this, but I guess one never knows…

      I volunteered at a feral cat shelter and had the privilege of getting to care for an ocelot.

      House cat in near dog-size dimensions a fascinating experience. Although occasionally blurring the playing with and being playtoy line a bit.

        Ocelots dream about the same thing electric sheep do only with catnip.

    I had just finished John Ringo’s “Through the Looking Glass” with its account of the Dreen War (now reading Vorpal Blade in the edda).

    Was considering seeing if Spark’ was posting in the Oviedo, FL CL and was just too close to the Chen Anomoly, but, I realized I was jus dreemin . . .

    No body reads the punches anymore, so I may just discontinue it. 8) Punch your own card, Sis!

    Good Morning, Montgomery!

      I was going to say something about you forgetting, but thought maybe you decided not to after Sis said she was going to be gone for the rest of the week.

      I always read the punches. Nobody has the flair that you do, WR.
