C-O-F-F-E-E
Coffee is not for me
It's a drink some people wake up with
That it makes them nervous is no myth
Slaves to a coffee cup
They can't give coffee up


This song/round is going through my head (over and over and over and over ). Anyone else ever heard of it?

It is definitely WAY past my bedtime. Zzzzz...

That or I'm playing the "change 6 letters" thread a wee bit too much.

 

[Truth]

Ok don't panick, this is rare but it does happen to some people just pass Midnight on June 19.

It's something to do with 6/19 being opposite of 9/16, well the details don't matter but it is important that you do not look in any mirrors before you go to bed. Now when you get finished here back away from the Keyboard slowly and go right to bed. Whatever you do don't go near any trash cans.

 

[grinningghost]

Hey, I'm drinking coffee right now, and I am SUCH a nervous wreck.

Someone save me.

 

[Pin Wizard]

YES! I know that song. I sometimes still sing it. LOL! It was in our music books probably in 3rd grade or so. That would be judging from what classroom I remember being in.

And I'm ready to head to Starbucks for a latte!

 

[browneyes]

Flaps, I think you definately need some c-o-f-f-e-e.

And put ALOT of sugar in it.

 

[flaps]

brownnose - I need coffee like you need seafood.

Pin Wizard - Yup, I learned it in gradeschool. Kinda sticks in your head.

grinning - I'da thunk you'd be content with the gravel and sunshine, but here ya go:

Truth - I'll be back.

I tried not to, honest; but with you grilling me as you have, I couldn't keep my cool and am now medium-well.


but it does happen to some people

I'll add that I'm neither a mathmetician nor accountant/bookkeeper nor banker. Factoring that data into the equation should count as a plus, doncha figure?


just pass Midnight on June 19.

Do they get to collect $200? (Sorry. Your mastermind boggles this simple Simon, so I risk when I haven't a clue. 'Tis balderdash and you're sure to call my bluff, but when someone plays like they've a monopoly on truth...)


It's something to do with 6/19 being opposite of 9/16,

I've already told you I'm not allowed to sum unless you've paid.


well the details don't matter

Perhaps not, but the etails do and I think we should get to the bottom of it 'cause the evil's in the etails! You still got that bucket Jackie, or did ya drop it when ya fell? We’ll be wantin’ it if ya do ‘cause I ‘spect there’s more than a tumblerful to drain; and although this Jilly’s got a near-insatiable appetite for Corny-ish hens - preferably flame-broiled (but that goes without saying) - there are limits, necessarily, to my thirst for Truth.


but it is important that you do not look in any mirrors before you go to bed.

Oh sure, NOW you tell me. Little too Chicken Little too later Ben Ali Gator.


Now when you get finished here back away from the Keyboard slowly

I followed your mandate to the letter, and I’ve got the bumped keister to prove it. You may have come here for an argument, but I’m sorry, this is abuse. You will find the bill from my quack doctor in your inbox. TIA for your compensation for the physical pain and mental anguish you’ve caused me. I accept well-concealed cash (Disney Dollars is fine - I’ve an upcoming trip), personal check (if you've 100+ feedback, 10 business days to clear), money order or quality boneless, skinless chicken breasts. No PayPal.


and go right to bed.

But I’m still hungry! (That chiclet I ate earlier wasn’t exactly a Big Bird.)

I suppose, though, that Truth can’t be bothered with such trivialities as rumblies in tumblies, and may instead - like the prolific, elderly lady who resided in a Reebok - give me broth without bread, and a whipping ‘fore bed.

And after the spanking, the… *censored * (‘cause it’s too perilous )



Whatever you do don't go near any trash cans.

No panicking, no details, no mirrors, no fast-forward movement, straight to bed with no snack and now you’re telling me no trash cans either??? Lot of rules you got there, Truth. And I haven’t studied. Ah, well, if you pop quiz me and I gotta guess, at least I’ve got a 50-50 shot.



And just for the record: flaps ain’t a raccoon. I’m a vulture. You post on a Disney board and don’t know your animated Jungle Book? What is this world coming to… ?


And now for something completely different.

 

[Truth]

That's the spirit, never say die, tough act to follow though.

 

[flaps]

Voluntary surrender in handcuffs? And to think the best I'd hoped for was a waving white flag...

But I gotta take issue with one thing: Tough act? TOUGH??? But I tenderized and marinated it! Honest!!

I read ya, though (or not), and concur. I can barely follow it myself.

Nope, never say die. [I'm] a looney.


Running away, eh? Come back here! I'll bite your kneecaps off!!

 

[Truth]

Drat, Time out Please,
--------------------------------
Gotta claim an error here.

The ghostbuster reply was meant to be the reply to your " Truth - I'll be back. " tagline.

It appears you posted your Long Post while an image worthy of your inspired " I'll be back " was being selected. At first the thinking was to go with the obvious but since you seem to be well versed in how not to be seen as well as kindred in the ways of the larch, the "best" at getting out of tight spots in high places would be none to good for the word slinger that has been thought of as the Ringo of the mostly feathered four ever since first seeing their motto in your sig.

You are aware that Harry said as he cashed in his chips,
"If there is any way at all that it's possible I'll come back"

Hope that explains any disconnect between your long post and the apparent reply to it.

Now back to the standard routine with apologys for screwing up the flow and timing.

now a reply to your long post.
--------------------------------
Two things

1. A work of art, no matter what your name is.
2. You don't need to be some mathmetician to know that the answer is always " 42 " or duct tape.

Three, three things

3.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now the reply or return to surrender.

kneecap recap

it seemed that "flaps" was attempting to follow fellow tough act "Harry" with the "I'll be back" line.

Hope that puts us on the same page now or at least the same book ?

 

[grinningghost]

Man, you people are DEEP.

I need to take some Excedrin after reading this thread.

Chased down with coffee of course.

 

[flaps]

Sorry, gotta buzz off. I'll bee around, though. For wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.

Reader's Digest Condensed Version:

I didn't expect a sort of Spanish Inquisition!

'Til Tomorrow. Or 'Til Tuesday, as the case may be. If our Voices Carry, that is. Your call, T. I'm a good sport, whether I'm safe or out. All I ask is to be told the truth.

 

[Truth]

No one expects the Spanish Inquisition,
Suprise is their greatest weapon.

If there was an Inquisition,
Truth played no part in it.

Sometimes you get a twofer.

Always better to assume misunderstanding than malice.
