Well, I've been quiet as a lamb.

You'll need to speak up. I didn't hear you.

Would that be known as the silence of the lamb

I prefer the silliness of the lamb.

*Waves*

Makes me think of "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" - fantastic title.

I'm interested in these waves, which I hope are not tsunamis in disguise .

No, no - only gentle, friendly wafting with hands on loose wrists. ~~~~~~~~

'Stares back'

Hi, Venus!

* s, ... s ~~~~ ... s ... <gets really confuzzled *

Right !!! Everyone that is lurking, please stand up and flaggle their right hand. Everyone that is not lurking, but just passively watching, fliggle the other right hand. And anyone else here, ...

Well, you're just gonna have to do a really dance of some sort, just to amuse the rest of us.

Welcome to the looney-bin, tartaronne.

I'm too stiff and old for electric boogie.

Oh thats just what i need....another flippin rain dance!

Nick, will you stop getting people to join in with your 'dad' dancing, it's embarassing!

Oops, nearly forgot....
Hi Paul

Thanks, Venus.

I'm not much of a dancer. There's a famous episode on "Seinfeld" in which a character named Elaine does a horrendously awful dance. She borrowed it from *me*.

Any questions?

How much did it rain after that?

It was totally dry. Parched, even. All the clouds were scared away for months. Weep, sinners!
