newsfreak, Sorry about the house troubles again. Will it never end?!

Okay, so who is MarinaraSauce? Is that Peter P's foody alter ego, lurking about here in Pigalle?

I'm still here, just overwhelmed with deadlines and getting ready to leave for a trip on Wednesday.

SQT, I hope our little vacation spot is not dead, but where the hell is Jack?! It's probably just the upcoming holiday this week that's got everyone busy.

Oh, okay, I thought so about that shifty Peter P. I have an alter ego too, SPHUH Vice President, but with the SPHUH president missing in action and the whole SPHUH joke thing beaten into the ground, I need a new alter ego.

Hmm, must thing of good alter ego...

I will email the former president and determine why he has departed from us/badger him to grace us with his presence again.

"Aren’t we a little QUICK to bury the President of SPHUH?"

Huh? Wha? Jack alive? Let me go put this shovel down...

Damn it, and I've already ordered the headstone too. I even had a nice place in the back yard for you right beside Randy H.

Welcome back, Mr. Pres. No, really! Welcome back. I really didn't want all that responsibility. I cannot be trusted with SPHUH.

Nor do I know when to let a joke die. Maybe I can use that extra headstone for SPHUH's burial? I could just cross out the word "president."

Do I feel another eulogy coming on?

"Maybe one should hold off on the pie until the septic issues are resolved."

Damn straight.

Hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving, in case I forget to say so tomorrow before we take off!

Let us not forget the original meaning of SPHUH: Society for the Preservation of Huh.

You've all started thinking it meant something dirty, haven't you?! I have NO IDEA where you would have gotten that idea! Really. Such gutter minds you all have.

Can we really have SPHUH when we've already eulogized and laid to rest Huh?

Sadly, I think we may have to disband SPHUH, for an organization without purpose is just another useless beaurocracy.

But let us declare a new purpose, and a new name. May I suggest SPPRICK? As in, Society for the Preservation of Prick.

Then SQT can still most definitely be the fondling member. In fact, she will ALWAYS be the fondling member, in my book. Jack would of course have no choice but assume the presidency again, and newsfreak can be the poet laureate.

But seriously, I gotta go pack for my trip. I hope you all have a great holiday weekend. I'm outta here.

Can we really have SPHUH when we’ve already eulogized and laid to rest Huh?

This is why we should bring back Huh?. Should we call it "Huh? 2" or "Doh!"

God, Jack can be soooooooo sensitive. This is the Fed PRICK thread, is it not? I mean, I know I've started affectionately calling it Pigalle, but Society for the Preservation of Pigalle just didn't sound nearly as funny as SPPRICK.

I crossed the panty line of decency a long time ago, Jack, and I have no intention of going back! None! Indecency is a hell of a lot more fun.

I think SQT should decide herself whether or not she wants to be fondling member of SPPRICK.

"This is why we should bring back Huh?. Should we call it “Huh? 2″ or “Doh!” "

Peter P, somewhere deep in the bowels of Huh, we did at one plan out the logical procession of threads to follow it. I have no idea what it was though, and I don't want to skip 2600 posts to find it (well, I COULD, but this is Thanksgiving and I should probably go act like I have a life for a litle while).

I'm all for Huh 2, or even Huh Part Deux, or Doh! works too. I think SJ Jim at some point suggested Hmm. But I have a special affection for Huh and would certainly show up for a sequel thread.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. We're in SF, and I just got back from a jog at the beach. There were like a million people down there doing a marathon or something, and I had to get out of their way. But the weather is perfect! Gorgeous day.

"we did at one plan"

Missing word, should read: We did at one time plan...

But seriously.

I am sorry for the absence. Busy weekend with our trip to SF. Turns out Thanksgiving day was the only day we weren't running around all the time. Then my kids got sick over the weekend, then I immediately got sick upon returning home Sunday night, and now I'm desperately working toward my Dec 19 book deadline.

I don't even have the brain power to update my own blog. Bleh. I need to think of something to post there. But, just, bleh. I'm feeling a little better today, but I doubt I'll be online as much as usual for the next three weeks.

How was everyone's Thanksgiving? I did not have to cook, and my brother-in-law is a total gourmet chef, so I had the best Thanksgiving dinner ever, complete with a bunch of stuff I'd never have the patience to make, including oyster stuffing, and oysters are one of my favorite things ever. Total sex food, totally appropriate for a place like Pigalle!

Hey, maybe that's an idea for my new blog post... Hurrying over to other blog before idea slips out of brain...

And let me just say for the record, I do not stand for "nappy suits." Nor would I require people to eat oysters. I say, let them eat cake.

Jack, Jack, Jack. SPPUSSY?!? That STILL sounds like an organization you should be the president of.

I am sorry. I take it all back. I unfairly slandered you.

You must stay and be the president of SPPUSSY. No one would fit that job but you. Though I'm pretty sure SQT will not longer want to be the fondling member.

Jack for President!

Newsfreak? Any interest in the fondling member job?

Naaaaah. Probably not, right? JACK, on the other hand, could be both president of SPPUSSY AND fondling member. Finally, the honors that would most fit him!

I ate blowfish and I survived! :)

SQT, I think there are some kind of automated spam-bot thingies that can go out and do auto-posts on blogs. Don't know how it works exactly but it happens on my blog all the time.

Peter P, was the blowfish good? Where did you go? Are we having a blog holiday party?

Jack has come a little unhinged in your absence, Peter P.

Jack, I resent all those "sinner" accusations. No one knows the dark roads of depravity like YOU. And don't think I didn't notice those vaguely dirty comments you were making to SQT in the hope of luring her back to your administration. You're like the Bill Clinton of the blog. If she gets too close, next thing she knows she's going to have a stain on her dress or something.

Peter P, was the blowfish good? Where did you go? Are we having a blog holiday party?

Blowfish tastes great. In sashimi form, it tastes like hirame. However, in "hotpot" form it stands out completely.

(I went to Osaka and Kyoto)

We should definitely have a blog party! :)

I have to point out that Jack is responsible for any and all blog degeneration. Ahem. No one else I know of has had anything to do with it. And especially not the SPPRICK VP. Her reputation will remain spotless in my eyes. And the former fondling member has also maintained a spotless reputation, in spite of a title that clearly causes an uphill battle.

Peter P, was it a business or pleasure trip or both? Sounds fun...and tasty.

Okay, so let's plan the blog holiday party! I will be in SF from probably Dec 17-30 and would not miss such an event if it takes place while I'm there. I guess we should probably do serious party planning on a legit thread and not in Pigalle...

Pleasure trip with family. It was quite tasty.

Let's make it Dec 17 - 30 if other members agree...

I don’t know, party around the holidays?

Holiday party? :)

Oh SQT, couldn't you make time for us? Already begging off a party before we get it started?! I thought you were a more loyal party member than that!

Okay, so we're going to have a two-week long party from Dec 17-30? That's cool. I may need to bring the goat for such an extensive soiree.

I may have claim I am KurtS. I think I could do a decent KurtS…

Jack, I still recognize you.

I know Peter, but I thought I could at least count on YOU to not blow my cover!

Huh?

Jack, why don't you introduce yourself as "SPPUSSY President?"

Now that I am here by my lonesome, I have to do the 1300th post myself.

1301

So, I’m wondering how we’re supposed to plan a blog soiree when no one comes here anymore. Harm even commented on Jack’s absence on the front thread.

Is it me or is the magic gone? _sniff_

Let's have a party thread.

Oh, sorry, I was off getting my "SPPRICK VP" t-shirt all printed up. But then they spelled SPPRICK wrong and I had to go back for a reprint. No, absolutely NO WAY was it my mistake. I definitely did not spell SPPRICK wrong on my order form.

So yes, Jack, I will be wearing my t-shirt.

Ooooooh, I LIKE the way you think SQT. Can I order a "fondling member" t-shirt for you? Heh.

Well, how to we explain ANY of it to anyone? Our jokes have gotten so convoluted and inbred, no one understands them but us. LOL, just the way I like it.

Much as I love shock value, I have to admit the Huh team shirt holds greater appeal than having to try to explain to anyone what The Society for the Preservation of Prick is.

Auburn letters huh, Jack?

Hey, we're finally online at the same time! I'm all stressed out and not getting any work done.

Oh well, guess I really do have to work after all... Bleh.

In theory, anyway. In practice, I actually zoned out and started falling asleep as soon as I looked at my manuscript again last night. I only try to work late when I'm on a deadline like now.

Yeah, I guess the teeshirts were maybe not such a great idea. Luckily there is still time to cancel the order.

Don't worry Jack, your wife is safe with us. Right SQT? Right? Please spare my husband the awful truth about my bad sense of humor. He might start calling me Beavis.
