nights, rab] Aww, come on, all it needs is a little love! There's not even all those drama threads wafting around, an' if you wriggle out of the celeb commentary and mash together another couple of threads it's barely any work at all! Thinks: maybe I could make another move, send it in a brown envelope to someone else, and they could play on!

[Tuj] Fear not. My last comment should have a dangling '...but it won't work' attached to it.

[rab] are you sure? I'm really rather good at killing things.






I've said too much.

I beg to differ...

• CdM - Waiter! The bill, if you please / Excuse me, can we get the check [Raak] That had me laughing out loud.
• Irouleguy - As soon as we've finished our cheese/And we're moving inside 'fore we freeze
  
  Or I'll miss my flight to Quebec/Don't worry, it's all on Cal Tech
• Botherer - Our taxi awaits/The hideous stilton / It's cold enough out/The troublesome weather // The flight from Toronto/It flies in an hour / Except for the beer/I've got an account
• Juxtapose - curse you, botherer... okay, I'll try line four
• Chalky - [Jux] Ha! that happened to me last time - Raak beat me to Line 4 by about 10 minutes. So I copped Line 5. Deep joy :-)
• Juxtapose - Waiter! The bill, if you please
  As soon as we've finished our cheese
  Our taxi awaits
  So no further debates / In the United States
  
  Waiter! The bill, if you please
  As soon as we've finished our cheese
  The hideous stilton
  You serve at the Hilton / Could cause one to wilt on
  
  Waiter! The bill, if you please
  And we're moving inside 'fore we freeze
  It's cold enough out
  That my pitcher of stout / To destroy without doubt
  
  Waiter! The bill, if you please
  And we're moving inside 'fore we freeze
  The troublesome weather
  Has froze us together / Has ruined the leather
  
  Excuse me, can we get the check
  Or I'll miss my flight to Quebec
  The flight from Toronto
  Is taking off pronto / Will quickly be gone so
  
  Excuse me, can we get the check
  Or I'll miss my flight to Quebec
  It flies in an hour
  By platypus power / So bring it right now or
  
  Excuse me, can we get the check
  Don't worry, it's all on Cal Tech
  Except for the beer
  Charge that to Rich Gere / And these hazelnuts here
  
  Excuse me, can we get the check
  Don't worry, it's all on Cal Tech
  I've got an account
  Of a stunning amount / Thanks to Ms. Lisa Blount
