P-C, I just laughed so hard that I snorted, which in turn made my throat hurt.
Well done.

No, Crying of Natter 49 is still best.
Okay, whereas Cindy didn't get the Pynchon reference, I am not getting the 49 -- Shock the Monkey relationship.
Not dead yet!
And P-C made me laugh so loud I'd have scared the cat, if I had one. Instead I'm stuck at the office for another 30 minutes until I can run for the last bus. Damnit.

There will be no Connie dying! None of the Connies! They are like the Fates; they are eternal.
Thank you. Can I be the Fate with the scissors?
Also, waitaminnit, I was probably 15 when Harrison Ford was 49, and old was not what I called him. The old goalposts have moved, missy.
Hell, yes.
As a (late-to-the-party-due-to-waay-too-much-work) mostly-lurker, I just want to add my expression of awe at the way you all have handled this. This place is so unlike any other Internet community I have ever known, and I mean that in an entirely complimentary way. I didn't know much of Gus beyond his giant love of Firefly (and who doesn't respect that?) and appreciating the way he expressed himself here. You all have been so respectful and....well, nice. (It's a boring word, but did I mention I've been working too hard?) I don't feel like I participate nearly enough around here to actually consider myself a Buffista, but I'm definitely proud and happy to be a regular reader.
To be off-topic and provide an all-about-me moment, Cindy: I'm surprised you didn't go through one of my sites to reach me.
I like Seward's Folly.
Wow. This is. Wow.
I'm all disappointed. I get to the end of the thread and...and...
Well, Scooby Doo hasn't solved the Mystery of the Mythological Weremonkey. Fred and his ascot have not revealed Gus to be Old Mr. Witherloins, owner of the "haunted" cotton candy factory on route 84. Hell, Scoob and Shag haven't so much as had a run-in with a spectral monkey-like figure while making an improbably huge sandwich consisting of an entire deli counter's worth of meat, an entire baguette or whatever and a live electric eel (for spice!)
Mmmm...eel sandwich...
