All this reminds me of a not very good novel I read a few years ago called Gilligan's Wake. It was a stream-of-conciousness novel like Finnegan's Wake. It offers the back stories of the island's residents. The one that I remember most is Lovie Howell being a heroin addict and having an affair with Daisy Buchanon, and the skipper being a WWII PT boat captain and friends with JFK.

I really kind of liked "lot puppy." I plan to use it in my everyday speech. As in "wow, get a load of that one! sheʻs a lot puppy!"

not sure what Iʻll mean by it though...

I'm just wondering about those donuts in the corner of your avatar. Is there something we should know about/between you and Uncle Duke?

Hmm. This is the second post in which you've obsessed about my donuts! How do I take that?

I have to admit, I was inspired by his donuts, but mine are KRISPYkreme donuts! I just couldn't make it work out so the KRISPY part was very visible. But I do so love glazed donuts. I just haven't had any for ages.

So, I was inspired by Uncle Duke, and that's as far as it's gone. But I did devote a "donut man" song to him in the MR member name thread thing. Is my new donut obsession showing?

We just like to dig up the dirt. We already have Harv and Vera, Hugo and Lefty, and one wag linked me with Lady Blue. Forum gossip you know.
