Ha ha!! Whatever! (gotta get a drink and a smoke to be screwed properly, I think)

Okay, that's it - we need some screwy topics for the men around here...right, Autumn?

Sounds good to me!

How about some mutually screwy topics? Then we can all have fun together, at the same time, in the same place. How about a live chat room?

I see some simultaneous oral screwing is what you've got in mind...

Hmmm....Simultaneous oral screwing sounds like a lot more fun than Chat Room!! Kind of gghrrabbs you

where?

Use your imagination. See what you come up with. Hmm...might be interesting.

Specially with your imagination!!

You over estemate me. However, certain products of the imagination cannot be shared online, and so it'll have to remain private. Unless you want to tell me what goes on in yours. I'm so old-fashioned, you see - I never make the first move...

Damn! Sorry, my typing is so screwed up today - they (like 'estimate') are not really spelling mistakes, my fingers are merely half frozen!

Until you called my attention to the spelling error, I never noticed it. And, If I had truely over estimated your imagination, you would have been online with what you are thinking. But you are right about not sharing them online. They would probably shut the conference down. In any case my e-mail address is: P_T_GUENTHER@hotmail.com so that takes care of that excuse.

Hardball! You're asking for it!

That's not hardball, Riette. That is calling you. As in Poker.

But that would be unfair - I don't play Poker. Perhaps you can teach me? Then I'll see if your kind of hardball really is HARD. ha-ha Just kidding!

I'd be glad to teach you poker, Riette. We have a version over here, called strip poker. Every time you lose, you remove one article of clothing. Whoever gets naked first, loses.

!!! And then what happens?! The loser has to wander around naked all evening? What if nipple frost should occur??

Oh My!! that would be terrible. But, I'd bet that we think of something to prevent that. Actually, if memory serves, The participants in this particular game end up naked together. It seems at that point the Combination becomes extremely exothermic. In other words, Riette, having enough heat isn't a problem.

You mean BOTH lose? You know what the first-lucky-last game says about that, don't you?

Actually, Riette, It seems that, in the end, both win. What does what say about it?

The first-lucky-last game is how I reason about things, and in this case it says: It would be the first time I'd enjoy losing. It would be a lucky thing indeed! And it would be the last time .... no, that doesn't apply actually. It would NOT be the last time I played poker!

Well then, Riette, I'm game, if you are. Of course we'll have to play several hands first that don't count, so you can familiarize yourself with the game.

Deal! I love a challenge! I'll wear 20 layers of clothes in case I lose, and if you lose.....WOOH!!! You'll be in deep deep trouble!

I hope that it is cold that day, Riette. With 20 layers of clothing, you will fry on the average spring day.

Okay, 20 layers of underwear then! That should keep me safe.

Riette, I think that you've found a way to make the game more interesting.

Yeah - at least it would look like I have boobies!! ha-ha! But the layers only come off if you can guess the underlying colours right!

Riette, I love a challenge!! That sounds like real fun!!

�fervently praying that you're colour blind�

Not likely, Riette, I have to take an eye test every two years, by federal law.

What a nasty old law that is!

Yes, Riette, it is. We have been trying to get it changed for years.

Why change it? Just go ahead and break it!

It costs a lot of money, Riette.

Oh! And damn. That's why I hate rules.

Yes Riette, we all do, the bureaucrats have to do something though.

I guess so. I'm glad I'm not a bureaucrat - they are not very well liked, are they?

Not at all,Riette

Tim, what now?

Riette, that depends on how open to suggestions, you are.
