Okay, this is where you have to pun on sophisticated city-type things. We need a classy spin on things. Sort of a gentrifical force, if you will.

I'm going to waltz on out of here for a bit...have a ball.

[Big Grin]

Deadline: All posts must be in by midnight Central time (1 hour later than Hatrack time) on Friday.

That's Good Friday, folks, so if you'd rather I delay the deadline for a happier moment, please let me know.

We all know this will end in a dark Black Tie if we do this by secret Ballet. Which way will we determine the winner?

I'll probably be offenbach myself. I need to visit to my Tiebout class to evict me from my slumber.

I think while I'm visiting the big city I should shout out an insult. We can call it my debut taunt.

I had some bread tonight, but the bottom was soggy, so I had to eat the upper crust.

If I'm going to the city, I'd like a one night stand up. Problem is, is I'm a thespian.

She does have pretty broad shoulders. You might want to watch out for her Feminine Wildes.

I went to a party last night, but I must've been under-dressed because the hostess' man shunned me. I didn't have anywhere else to go, so I stayed all night under the canape. Fortunately, I had my wireless card and was able to get the net working.

Dunno. This is Showpatz we're talking about. Lecherous old fool. Could be some kind of satanic ritual of some sort!

you look fantastic, by the way.

Not according to what the man from Lima's seen.

May-or pets be allowed to participate? Or can we not pet-agree?

T_Smith made such a clever pun, everybody. So sigh at T.

tux, tux, such delight-Vul Gar-ish behavior.

Most of our threads have been discusions of morality, debating things like what blatant deviants and Frank talk of the Sin-atra-mp may commit.

Or we have political talk, like where to buy a Democrat--at the Dean Mart-in California.

Or biblical discusion, like which phrophet is older. I thought Sam-my, but Dav-is Junior.

Or we play on line games, like Chess, when Joe took my pawn, but I took Joey's Bishop.

But these pun, pardon my Wine, are just a Rat Pack of bad taste.

By the way, Bob, congrats on another capitol thread.

I tell ya, whenever I get depressed that my life is getting choatic and out of control, when I really start to feel entropy, these threads are real fun-raisers.

(edit: I just wanted to add that I don't hate fluff at all.)

(edit: I really did edit "capital" because I realized that that spelling wasn't a pun. That blunder reminds me of my couch-potato dad. I call 'em both "sofa pa".)
