(let this be a lesson to you kids: drinking and internetting don't mix...)

dersins: try drinking and knitting, then you'll really be sorry.

Drinking and knitting probably explains that set of knit internal organs that made the rounds a little while ago.

Also, that thread is hilarious. I don't know how I missed that one. That'll teach me to go outside every once in a while.

(I don't understand why that Marlboro man comment made you go "wha?" I thought I knew the dhoyt background....what am I missing? Or did you think he/she was back?)

yeah, dersins thought it was a new comment, but it wasn't. Nothing to see, close thread.
