Hi, my name is GraceKrispy and I'm a mobilereadaholic. Yes, I find myself checking at odd times, from my cell phone, navigating the frustrating waters that reading forums can be on a cell phone, from my trusty crackberry, just to see what's new. In the lounge. Half hoping someone will respond to me, half hoping they won't (for fear it'll be someone with some witty remark I just don't quite get or won't know how to respond to).

...so said the actress to the bishop.

[It's okay, GraceKrispy. That was meant to make no sense. ]

I like bacon, have been to Paris once (a 6hr layover on a trip to Germany in high school; I took a picture of the Eiffel tower with some awesome storm clouds in the background and some protest going on in front... I thought it was poetic. For all I know, it was a protest against panty lines- I don't read French... I don't speak it either),

It was probably a "WE WANT MORE BUTTER!" protest. Those French folk can never get enough. Every French recipe starts "1. Put 5 litres of butter in a bowl".

anyway, where was I?

You were over there, but while you were talking I moved the room through a 90 degree angle in the 13th spatial dimension, and now you're in the Chateau Pompette Reading Room. Can I get you a drink?

Oh, yes, I'm easily distracted,

Me too, it doesn't take much for me toOMG! A BUTTERFLY...

I don't know who two of the famous people you mentioned were,

Nothing wrong with that. There's always the future, which is a nice place to put things you don't currently have time for.

but I choose Monty Python and NOT Will Ferrell,

Your emphatic "NOT" is duly noted and roundly applauded, and also a bit squarely applauded, and on every other Tuesday, octagonally applauded.

I much prefer dogs, I'm all for cannibalism, but only if I pretend I'm a cow, turkey, or a big fat chicken,

Okay, show me. I need to be convinced, and I won't be until you lay an egg (a chocolate egg...no, scrap that, too much opportunity for misrepresentation)

I could lend you $15, but you have to come and collect it yourself.

Ohhh, but then I'll have to get up. Gees, that sounds like a lot of effort. Maybe I'll just go down to the beach and steal wallets.

*big breath*

My username... it was a nickname someone dubbed me in college,

Fair enough. I assume because you glide by with grace, somewhat undercut by the cellophane slacks.

I'm wearing a dumb school tshirt with my sweatpants and I picked it because it was on top,

Ahh, you must be from the same fashion school I went to.

yes, your bum looks big. Try sucking it in a little.

Said the actress to the bishop.

Or stop wearing skin tight potato sacks. That look isn't for anyone, really.

Not even Mr. Potato Head?

I only vote if I'm confident my vote means something. Or if I'm really bored, or procrastinating work, or just to see my avatar hit another post.

I only vote if I'm convinced my vote is absolutely meaningless. Thus my support for a democratic system of government.

I think, by now, you realize that all my responses are really nothing compared to the rich mountains of information you have probably inferred about my personality.

Yeah, 'tis true, but I suspect there's a grain of truth in the inference that your ultimate fantasy is to do the Funky Chicken with a troupe of penguins to the music of Plastic Bertrand in the middle of the Place de la Concorde while wearing nothing but your underpants on your head, right?

..."are you sure you wouldn't rather be doing something else with your time, other than posting on the lounge?" (true story- that happened to me, but in 3rd grade chorus during recess time.... it still hurts)

Well, don't you worry 'bout that here in the Lounge. If anyone bothers you with that little bit of bullying here, I'll be only to happy to send them on their way with a pepper-spray enema.

Ok, this is the problem with giving me an open mike, I just keep going until someone turns the power off. I'm sure I have so much more to say...... but I'll refrain. For now.

[dead air]



Oh, hey! Yes, that was the ever-delightful and sweet-smelling (particularly if you like a steady diet of small fish) GraceKrispy. A spontaneous dodecahedron of applause, if you will. [insert spontaneous dodecahedron of applause].

Thoughts are being mulled like alcoholic grape juice as to selection of your individualised Bilbophy. I suspect penguins may be involved, though no guarantees.

Cheers,
Marc
