    More-arty! ahem, Moriarty! Good to know you still live and kick, you pusillanimous bastige! I still have nightmares of flamethrowing tanks, molotovs, and backpack fuel tanks in tinder dry tall grass and trees. Ah, the drinks drank during the warm glow of burning grass, trees, people, halftracks, Oy My!

    Well, I did go start the truck yesterday. Gotta run it once in awhile to keep the battery charged now that it's used mostly for occasional hauling. However, I purchased Spore this weekend, and that has been eating into the time I can spend pummeling misplaced Oddstralians. I'm sure you can understand, Stuka.

    Ok, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you do get it. That must mean that all your time spent posting here was an attempt to turn it into the Cheery Waffle thread. I also assume your latest meltdown was caused by the rest of us not falling in line. This is the Peng Challenge Thread, it is what it is and not going to change. You claim to not be dimwitted, so that begs the question of why you continue to post in a thread that, obviously, isn't your cup of tea? Why haven't you resurrected the Cheery Waffle thread?

    You make reference to this threat to kill you. I haven't the least idea of what you're talking about. Care to elaborate?

    Ooo, OOoo! [raises hand]

    I must be part of the plot. I wished someone would've clued me in to my role. Maybe Colonel Mustard in the library with a bookend?

    Ductless glands that are within

    They are called the endocrine

    Make chemicals that flow within; and work with the nervous system

    Hormones, hormones

    Chemical messengers are what you call the hormones

    Each gland produces one or more hormones

    With names that end with "...ins" and "...ones"

    Cortisone, testosterone are just two of the hormones

    Hormones, hormones

    Estrogen, progesterone are two more of the hormones

    Adrenal makes adrenaline

    Fight or flight that comes from them

    Pancreas makes insulin

    Milk begins with prolactin

    Hormones, hormones

    The quantity is so tiny but you need all your hormones

    Thyroid and the ovaries

    Pituitary and the testes

    All the glands they do secrete directly in the bloodstream

    Hormones, hormones

    Stimulate body functions: the duty of your hormones.

    I have found this Private Message thingy to be an odd thing. Apparently it is difficult for some folks to figure out. When you're logged in, up in the right-hand corner of the screen is a thing that lists any private messages one might have. It took me a bit to figure it out, but it's kinda a neat little feature of this new board. Very interesting indeed.

    But now, for something completely different!

    A Sing Song!

    Oh, many, many years ago

    When I was twenty-three

    I was married to a widow

    Who was pretty as can be

    This widow had a grown-up daughter

    Who had hair of red

    My father fell in love with her

    And soon the two were wed

    This made my dad my son-in-law

    And changed my very life

    For my daughter was my mother

    'Cause she was my father's wife

    To complicate the matter

    Though it really brought me joy

    I soon became the father

    Of a bouncing baby boy

    This little baby then became

    A brother-in-law to Dad

    And so became my uncle

    Though it made me very sad

    For if he was my uncle

    Then that also made him brother

    Of the widow's grown-up daughter

    WHo of course is my step-mother

    Chorus

    I'm my own grandpa

    I'm my own grandpa

    It sounds funny I know

    But it really is so

    Oh, I'm my own grandpa

    My father's wife then had a son

    Who kept them on the run

    And he became my grandchild

    For he was my daughter's son

    My wife is now my mother's mother

    And it makes me blue

    Because although she is my wife

    She's my grandmother too

    Now if my wife is my grandmother

    Then I'm her grandchild

    And every time I think of it

    It nearly drives me wild

    For now I have become

    The strangest case you ever saw

    As husband of my grandma

    I am my own grandpa

    [chorus]

    Did I just see Berli thank Joe? It must be positively frigid in Berli's underworld abode.

    (I know, I know, I'll get a year of Mondays)

    Time for a sing-song, then:

    Monday Monday, so good to me,

    Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be

    Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee

    That Monday evening you would still be here with me.

    Monday Monday, can't trust that day,

    Monday Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way

    Oh Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be

    Oh Monday Monday, how yould cou leave and not take me.

    Every other day, every other day,

    Every other day of the week is fine, yeah

    But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes

    You can find me cryin' all of the time

    Monday Monday, so good to me,

    Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be

    Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee

    That Monday evening you would still be here with me.

    Every other day, every other day,

    Every other day of the week is fine, yeah

    But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes

    You can find me cryin' all of the time

    Monday Monday, ...

    Gamey Updates!

    Boo and I are just about done with our little bullet punctuated tussle. He's got 2 flags, I've got 3 (4?), and he ain't gonna get no more. I have an angry Kitty who's growling and showing it's teeth.

    My game with Nidan1 is about midway through. It's a frikken HUGE map, with half town, half countryside, and a great big honkin' concrete memorial or sumfink smack dab in the middle. It is (was) covered in his German MG pillboxes. Now it's covered in cowering crews who can't get down the cliffs. Funny thing, I can't get up 'em either. It's a conundrum. In the meantime, I'm having fun reducing his trenches piecemeal with direct HE fire. No tellin' how this one will go.

    As far as Stuka, well, obviously he's a gamey Stuart-rushing-Oddstralian-with-airs-to-be-a-merkin. This one's just starting, but no doubt he will lose. It's what he does.

    Time for another sing-song;

    Finished with my woman

    'Cause she couldn't help me with my mind

    People think I'm insane

    Because I am frowning all the time

    All day long I think of things

    But nothing seems to satisfy

    Think I'll lose my mind

    If I don't find something to pacify

    Can you help me occupy my brain?

    Oh yeah!

    I need someone to show me

    The things in life that I can't find

    I can't see the things that make true happiness

    I must be blind

    Make a joke and I will sigh

    And you will laugh and I will cry

    Happiness I cannot feel

    And love to me is so unreal

    And so as you hear these words

    Telling you now of my state

    I tell you to enjoy life

    I wish I could but it's too late

    --Black Sabbath
