So did you live in South Carolina previously, or did you gatecrash the Palmetto Players and they are too well-mannered to ask when you will be leaving?
Politeness can be exploited you know :)

I am good friends with one of their members. She brought me in. And, I don't think I will leave. She would kill me. lol

Hi Anton - I hope you're not getting too friendly with the llamas.

Wait! I thought Pirates relished hotdogs? Or is that only in the U.S.?

If Llamas and Pirates and bunnies and llemmings can post here, can a Dresss post here, too? (Oh, please say yes... this MB is hilarious, and I have tales to tell!)

Okay! Well! So there I was, minding my own business a few months ago, when I realized I was in the KO Tourney against the Prince Of Darkness himself! Me, the lovely Dresss in her, well, dress, and pearls, and heels, vacuuming and making a lovely tuna noodle casserole for dinner, all at the same time, like so many June Cleavers. I mentioned it to my team, who thought it was outrageously hilarious that Mr. Evil would ever dare to think he could beat me, the Angel of Goodness and Light! We laughed about this on my team MB for a week! So, we went up against each other in the final game of the tourney, and... he clobbered me. It was a nightmare in the making, it really was. So the only thing to do at that point was to befriend him and wait until it happened again. And it did! Just last week! And what did I do? I was sick as a dog (sorry to any any dogs in here) and forgot my game and forfeited, and who won the whole shebang again??? That's right...the Prince of Darkness.

Did someone say politeness can be exploited? Can you teach me that trick? Because so far, I can't beat him, no matter how hard I try, and frankly, these heels are beginning to ache, and I'm tired of the pearls...

I was thinking more of all those civilised South Carolingians sipping coffee and handing around cake on plates with lacy doilies and making polite conversation like in the Civil War films I've seen...with the Prince of Darkness at their table.
Grinning.

I'm not sure they call themselves South Carolingians, but to be honest, I have no clue what they DO call themselves. I'm in Colorado via Montana, but I still sip coffee and/or tea with my little pinky extended, just so. I thought everyone did? Don't let those Civil War films fool you -- the antebellum years ares sooooo last century.

What is this sleeping stuff you speak of?

Hi Elle,
I'm sure you could bribe him into letting you win. He asked me to name my price to let him win if we ever met in the knockout but I haven't decided what it is yet ;)

Nice to see you here, I hope you're feeling better. I know you've been missed.

Hi cyberhen! It's great to see you! And thank you, it's nice to hear I was missed. I was definitely down for the count for wayyyyyy too long.

I am fairly certain Mr. POD can't be bribed, but he also said he didn't sleep, so where is he? If you have never gone up against him in that Knockout Tourney, trust me -- it really isn't pretty. There was fur and feathers everywhere. Complete carnage, and I was SO sure I would win. *sobbing!* But, unless you use your heels as a weapon, they really are useless and in the way in a battle like that. However! Turn them around and suddenly, you have an impaling tool! I forgot and got clobbered instead. Third time's a charm, though. I'm sure of it.

(Can I use the word "impaling" in here?)(Are there any vampires in here?)

Just offer to send him a van load of his favourite food. That might work. If you don't know what it is then I'm sure he'll tell you what it is if you ask him.

I stand corrected, according to Wikki, the correct term is South Carolinian.
Have you tried a bell, the Book and a candle as accessories in your Knockout confrontations with the POD?

Hahahaha! No, I haven't! Like an idiot, I tried brains, wit and speed! It was futile.

And I have no clue what his favorite food is, but what if he eats puppies??? Just standing up to him was bad enough, but in my heels, I was WELL over 5'9" and thought that might intimidate him. He didn't even blink. He just crushed me like a grape.

What does it take to be a Pirate, a Llama, a Llemming, or a bunnie? And, does the cheese stand alone? (And, did anyone, at all, get my Pirates, hotdogs, and relish joke?) (I'll cry again if no one did...)

:( I didn't get the joke, but I assumed that it might need an American framework to make sense.
To be a llama, all you have to do is walk through the paddock gate, it's always open. :)

Okay... someone said, "I thought Pirates relished rebels?" or something like that. It's REALLY late if you haven't slept yet, and I haven't, so I don't recall the exact quote, but that was close.

I said, hilariously, I might add, "I thought Pirates relished hotdogs?"

You see, Pirates are a U.S. baseball team out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Relish is this "stuff" made out of cucumbers and sugar and red peppers and something else like maybe dill or maybe mustard seeds, and relish is always, always smeared all over hotdogs, along with mustard and/or catsup, and hotdogs are an American staple at all baseball games!

So, Pirates relish hotdogs! Get it? (Oh please, say yes... I'm still laughing about it, but I may be delirious from sleep-deprivation.)

:) Sorry for the stupidity!

I did try and work out what you meant, and found this...

I may need the US contingency to help me explain the "relish" joke. Mom, baseball and apple pie are as American as hotdogs and relish!

(Help... oh help...)

Erm, a lot of llamas and llamabunnies are British so cheese never stands alone for long over here, we eat it!

American cheese on the other hand is best melted down and used as rubber matting - it tastes the same and lasts longer. And do NOT get me started on Canadian macaroni and cheese from a packet! aaaaaaargh!
