*trots back in through front door*
Well, I know a winner when I see it! *brandishes 2 more loaves of cinnamon raisin toast*
Can you believe, when I stopped at the supermarket on the way home IRL, this was marked down a dollar????
Newcomer, your post has slipped over the dge of the block of 20 ; I recollect it was a mighty short name, but I believe you ordered coffee, yes? And toast?

*wipes butter off chin.*
Mmmmm. Thanks for the toast. Pierrot, come down here for a moment, please.
*Pierrot flys down to GL's shoulder*
Pierrot: Awwwwk, what's up doc?
Well, Pierrot, how would you like to go live at Lil's Atellier for a while? It's upstairs from Crater Labs, so I will usually be nearby, and they have promised to leave the upper sash of the window open, so you can come and go as you please.
Pierrot: Awwwk, mbougatses
Well, as you know, Lil is the person who bakes those and where do you think she does the baking?
Pierrot: Awwwk, what are we waiting for?
Well, folks. I'm taking Pierrot to Lil's Atellier for a while. I'm sure he will be back for visits.
Ook: Ooooook
Pierrot: Awwwk, cheer up. Open window.
Ook: Oook
*Ook waves as GL and Pierrot exit*

In the Aroma Cafe? Good hot chocolate? Understatement of the year, my friends. There ain't nothing like the stuff Irv (or his machine) can whip up. I'll have a mug too.
Speaking of which, anyone seen Irv in the past couple weeks?

Ahhh....there's nothing like a friday afternoon for the urge for a huge piece of chocolate cake.
*looks at the IIEM and wonders if it'll make some cake*
maybe i'll just have a cup of hot chocolate and a donut.....

*smiles* Would you settle for one of Archbishop Marv the Grate's thrice-blessed fudge brownies?

I'll let the IIEM carry on doing the beverages cos I can't stay all that long.

Sorry 'bout that -- had to pop out briefly for some pizza (I have left, though, if anyone wants any)
Coffee would be great; toast too if there's any left... Actually, though, it's getting pretty late. Someone else can have my toast; but leave the coffee someplace in mug and I'll grab it next time I'm in

Hello everyone. Nothing like FRIDAY AFTERNOON Coffee please, and any cinnamon toast left? Its my favorite, and we're out in RL. We had a crazy afternoon at work. The phones quit - in the middle of a call. The switchboard operator had to answer on the only phone working - the emergency phone. So she stood by the coffee pot answering the phone, reading jokes on the notice board and laughing. One of the accountants walked by and told her he didn't know what was in the coffee, but he'd take 2. Sounds like a trip to the Aroma Cafe!!

Bahb Posted Jun 23, 2000
whoops, hate to pop off again, but i'll be on vacation somewhere in the space-time continuum for te next week or so. hope you won't miss me in the interrim! i'll tell you what i'll do tho: i'll leave Twinkie the Sax Sprite here with my saxophone so you can have a little music while i'mgone! how 'bout that?
(i'll bet you didn't know Twink could play, did you?)
*sets sax on the counter*
just play a little ditty to summon Twink if you want some music.
(or an indistinct wailing will work too, if you can't play!)
bye now!

Barney, you still want that coffee? Sorry but thunderstorms have kept me offline. Florida summer -- we get electrical storms like clockwork most afternoons.
*boils water for tea, whilst regarding sax* This could be as nice as any jukebox, actually.

hehe... *blows some indiscriminate notes from Bahb's sax...*
Sorry people. Sacrilege, I know to treat an instrument that way, but I've never played Sax b4.
Ok. Twink... some deep blues to go with this funk I'm in please...
Oh.. Lil. I may have mentioned this, but is there any way we can het some sofa's in the Ladies???
Aroma Cafe Fri 23 June 2000
Asteroid Lil - Offstage Presence Posted Jun 24, 2000
Both the Ladies and the Gents are ACTUALLY the property of Bluebottle, who is proprietor of the Waterworks. He's running a thread called the Public Toilets on the Waterworks forum. The two threads on THIS forum were never actually intended to be here by Irv, and so all we do is occasionally go down and clean, repaint.
I'm about to set up tomorrow's thread, so give me a minute and I'll give you the URL where you can post your request about furniture.

This is the link to Bluebottle's public toilets: http://www.h2g2.com/F44380?thread=57224 And now, in just a minute, I will set up the new thread for the weekend.
