I was told a good Yup'ik Story the other day.
A Yup'ik, walking through a field, sees a man using his hand as a scoop to drink water from a pond. The Yup'ik calls out to the man, "Agu! Tuaken menrilu anarrlirtuq!"
(Translation: No! Don't drink that water. It's full of crap!)
The man shouts back, "I'm English! Can't you speak English! Are you completely ignorant, you idiot?!"
The Yup'ik calls back, "Use both hands. You'll get more."

So you're a crafty sort of guy, eh Warpt? I do the same thing, though. That's why I've switched to rubber cement...!

Don't ask. But it makes it really nice to bounce off the walls!

You've never used rubber cement, Barkley? It's a type of glue that is viscous enough to hold stuff really strongly, but it dries super fast. Also, if you spill it on stuff, you can rub it off into a ball that bounces.

Right know Barkley is on his way to the store to get a bottle of glue. I hope he doesn't have a sniffing problem. That would be bad if he went into relapse.

No kidding. I wouldn't want to be the one responsible for his addiction... 
By the way, we have a potential manna-alert situation brewing on the cruise ports thread. We may be having roasted troll for dinner again... Let's try it with a glaze of blood orange this time, eh Met?

I am so tired of the "experts", Xa'at. It's hard to even come to this forum anymore because they seem to be increasing like fruit flies in high season.
The only real positive thing anymore is the young/er people who want to come up for some kind of adventure. Even the guys that want to fish because television has steered them wrong--there is still something here for them even though it won't be like what they think.

I remember using that stuff as a kid to make fake boogers.
