Geez, I can’t believe that I wrote that in 2005. It doesn’t seem that long ago.

I hope the sick duckies get better soon! As to the 25 books… whu – pft – I’ll just wait. I’ve also got a crazy tiny destructive dog on my hands, so I can’t read this as carefully as I’d like.

K, Gwen, you get the roast shaped bits, but I want the ribs. MMMMMMMM… BBQ pork ribs…

Oh, and what wine you use for the pork roast? Sounds yummy. What do you serve it with?

Pig is off picking on gay boys that are really straight girls but who claim to be a little of both. Or a bunch of those. Or something like that. So we can talk about him all we want and he won’t know the difference.

Yummmm… Roast pork… I ever tell you gals how good of a roast pork shoulder I make? Da BEST! Whole bottle of wine in the pan with it – braised over a very low heat for a very long time.

But it’s no fun if the Pig isn’t around for us to roast.

Gwen, it’s clear as mud!

Earlier (as in, some other comment thread) Sybil commented that all the pond duckies are feeling poorly (save Gwen, I just learned), and I suggested adding a few drops of bleach to improve the water’s quality.

Syb blames the pig, though–which makes no sense, since we all know pigs are clean creatures.

Okay, back from Karen’s place…

She LIKED it! She REALLY LIKED IT!!

Hot DAMN!

Oh, and Karen, you missed one of the more repugnant aspects of the incest scene that Skye walked in on. He was doing his sis in the Portal of Sodom and when they saw Skye, slutsis turned around and took him into her mouth while smirking at Skye.

Those two pieces of work deserved each other. One of the things I love about the Ske O’Malley books is that the women bury multiple husbands before finding their HEA. Doesn’t matter how much Skye (or her offspring in the later books) love them, chances are they are gonna die. I also LOVE the rivalry between Skye and Queen Elizabeth throughout the books. Everything I know about English history I learned from romance books, you know.

Oh, and droit du seigneur? The first time I ever came across that term was in the movie The War Lord starring Charleston Heston. He grabbed one of his vassal’s brides using Ye Olde droit du seigneur, but then started a revolt when he decided to keep her, as was his right.

Now that I have arisen from my 12 hour nap (seriously, that’s all I do is sleep, dammit), I approached this thread with Sword of Vengence raised— Bertrice Small is a goddess dammit! Do I dare to also follow the link to Karen’s full review? And what brought this up anyway? The reprint of this glorious tapestry that my goddess created?

And WTF is Gwen so freakin’ healthy when the rest of the duckies are dropping like flies? Voodoo dolls are involved. I’m sure of it.

And I’m not drunk – just pleasantly buzzed.

I only had two Prickly Pear Margaritas (gosh they were goooooood and very, very purple). Two very LARGE ‘ritas, but still just two.

You are a mean duckie who enjoys torturing us.

Carry on

(and I hope the sick duckies get better soon–have you seen to the bleach thing yet?)

Oh and *shuffling feet* the one blathering about contests is *ahem* me *running off to hide under rock*
