57, W @ 6 mph, clear (for now,) 40%

It’s almost time to fire up the space heater. I left the fan on in the bedroom but compensated by throwing an extra blanket on the bed.

Goodness knows, but now that you’re here, Hi.

[Mr. K]

Are those Tribbles?

[What’s the plural of Tribble?]

[What is a group of Tribbles called? I propose a ‘federation’ of tribbles]

[Monkey Face]

It’s hard to understand that, Mr. K, since we’ve been here, in one form or another, since 2004.

Welcome to the Undead Thread, aka, The Flying Castle. The history of the thread can be found on Nicknamedbob’s home page, if you want to spend a day reading some good science fiction!

We really like newcomers, but they don’t last long. They often get lost in the Lower Levels or the Zombies feed them to the basilisk. Those that survive are usually our Best FRiends Forever! So, again, Welcome!

Morning, SJB. How are you?

[NoCmpromiz]

By stumbling across it in the dark?

Now that you’ve found it it offers years of fireside reading for those cold winter nights... ;-)

[Tax-chick]

You can even read it in the dentist’s chair.

[NoCmpromiz]

On another note, BleachBit now has a Cloth or Something...

Great marketing. ;-)

SHHHHHHH! It’s a secret.

Normally the denizens of the lower levels of the basement help us keep the word from being spread.

[ArGee]

I didn’t even remember we ever had a post 84.

Yes, those are tribbles

I think a group of tribbles is called a “disaster” Only slightly less so than a group of liberals.

[ArGee]

Don’t worry too much about being fed to the basilisk. It’s happened to me at least 3 times. It sounds worse than it is.

I got a filling in a top rear molar. James’s snaggletooth will continue to be an oddity until all his teeth are in. Something can be done about it after that.

[Monkey Face]

Is your face numb? Have a Pink Drink and you won’t even notice!

My daughter had two snaggletooths (snaggleteeth?), and when she was in her late 20’s, she had them removed. Then she got dentures. She likes them. And I’m glad for her.

This is the current Undead Thread.
There honestly hasn’t been a really good candidate for us to move to.
:-/

The “Undead Thread” is something of a joke, a “meta-thread” that moves from within one thread to another.
It all started awhile back on the thread by jj_fate where a bunch of us finally got fed up with the troll posters and said, “Wouldn’t it be funny to hijack their threads instead?”
And it kinda snowballed from there.

[Monkey Face]

And now I think, since the storm glass is getting lots of crystals and the barometer is dropping, I will go get parallel to the deck and put some heat on my back.

Tomorrow, then!

[Monkey Face]

Hey, Darks!!! You have been missed!

[Darksheare]

I know, been crazy lately.
Wish in a good way, but...

[Tax-chick]

My face is fine. I have a meeting tonight. Hope you sleep well.

Dr. Dhulab suggested a veneer, eventually.
