I'll be happy to send down a few thunderboomers from up here --- we've got plenty to spare. It's been pouring and banging for the past three hours, and I'm just lucky the computer's still on! Nowhere else to go at 5 am, and the TV's on and off.

It seems like the rain's always where you DON'T need it!

Alan W? Hmmm. Perhaps, the W is for watchful or wandering, wondering or wonderful, whispering or wittering ... wunderkind ... wily ... woebegone.

Haven't you been back to bed yet 3B? I don't know how you do it? Your coffee bill must be high!

Send the rain right on down - just not in flood proportions.  Some parts of Oz have had bad floods last week - its heartbreaking to see all the water going to waste when other parts of the country are so thirsty.

[biggerbirdbrain]

I'm afraid I'll just have to tough it out. I actually don't drink that much coffee, but once I've had a cup or ten, the damage is done  . It's the old man who drinks more coffee than I do, and yet he sleeps like a baby after the fifth pot in the evening. I don't know how he does it  Stomach's got an aluminum lining, methinks, and there's no pathway to the sleep center. 

OK, I'm now doing my "send the rain judiciously and prudently to the parts of Oz that need it most" dance. However, I'm needing my green wellies to get out there and do it properly.

Know anyone who has a pair I can borrow? (T-hee-hee?) 

[Gaye]

yeah, but I understand she's playing elsewhere today. Do you think she might be getting a real life??

[biggerbirdbrain]

I hope so! The poor woman needs one.  Either way, I'm sure she'll have plenty of colorful and hilarious little stories when she comes back.

Of course, I should talk about a real life. Look what I'm doing! 

[Gaye]

Well I think I'm going to give up on the last common word in standard and go and spend some time with my hubby before he divorces me.  He cooked us a beautiful roast tonight so have to be nice to him.  Have a nice day threeb despite the storm.

[biggerbirdbrain]

It's wonderful to have a hubby who cooks! Mine does too! I don't blame you for running off. The roast smells yummy, so enjoy. 

[Alan W]

Hey! Who turned that light on?

All right. Enough lurking in the shadows. I'm ready to look you all in the eye again.

(The W is probably for weatherbeaten.)

[biggerbirdbrain]

That's so much better now, Alan! What a relief to see your shiny little face again. Not weatherbeaten at all  .

And you've been a good sport about all that talk about ghouls, goblins and ghosts. I don't care what the rest of them say! I'd NEVER say anything like that about you, now, would I? Of course, I can't remember anything right now, since I've been up for HOURS and HOURS drinking and smoking. You can't expect me to make any sense at all! 

[Alan W]

Just call me Mr Walker - The Ghost Who Walks

[biggerbirdbrain]

Oooh, Alan, the superhero! What muscles you have!  Virtual, though they may be! 

[Viz]

i see you've lured big Al out of the shadows - does that mean all is forgiven?
