No, clearly you are from Dallas, and almost certainly you are J.R. Ewing in drag trying to hide from all the people who want to shoot you, I'm an undead Patrick Duffy trying death out until a better offer comes along, and this is all just some crazy dream I'm having (but with far less tornadoes and scorpions in it than I'm used to).

Cheers,

Don't do it Marc! You'll be sorry come last week. Please stop and think about what you're about to have done. You haven't paid the exit fee yet. You know how testy the laddy gets when he's doesn't get the gratuity he thinks he's due.

I don't even want to think about it.

Upon duly examining the Lady's earlier statements, with specific words capitalized for emphasis (and excluding the use of "I"), we have:

Quote:

DO
THAT
DOES
Trying some combinations of said words, and including an occasional "I" for seasoning, we have:

"I do that chilled does."

"I does chilled that do."

"Chilled does I do that."

"I does chilled that do I."

"Do that I chilled does I."

"Do I chilled I that I does."

As well as a few permutations that make no sense at all. Examining these permutations, we can see clearly that...



...I got nothin'.
