with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Lovely work. One typo correction -- "Who is Dead Guy Larry?" should read "Who is Dead Gay Larry?"

do you need it emailed?

I was able to grab it now, so no.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That became so very much more interesting when I misread it as 'its entrails'.

If I only had a brain...

It always comes down to entrails when you're around, billytea.

I feel I should point out that all the quotes on the BRQG concerning hyena sex (and there are a surprising number) have your name next to them.

The hyenas and I are just good friends.

Is it possible for admins. to check IP numbers? Each day, my suspicion grows - that we have the subject of a suspension in our midst.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That is so weird Cindy, because I have been thinking the same thing. And then feeling like I am being a paranoid freak (not to say that you are).

The subject came up before. I think the answer was "Not really". IPs aren't unique identifiers for anything other than network purposes, in any case; many people have a different IP address every time they connect to their ISP, and many people can share an IP address because of the way firewalls work.

Actually, I kind of am a paranoid freak, or I'm paranoid about being thought a paranoid freak (same thing, really) - so I also get paranoid about being a paranoid freak.

I've been thinking it for over a week, and feeling like the little kid who just KNOWS the emperor is nekkid, but didn't want to upset the villagers and didn't want to falsely accuse an innocent. Now it seems to be getting to the point where the discussion patterns, the posting style, and the slightly incorrect adoption of posting gimmicks, etc., is so very much the same that it almost can't be another person. However, I have to say, if the person I suspect is the person I suspect s/he is, his/her second incarnation's behavior (when called on posting problems) has been better and (imo) not suspension worthy, in and of itself.

Crap. I hate being delicate. Is the above even in English?

eta...

Oh Betsy, that's right. I'd forgotten. Okay, never mind Buffistas. Either the truth will out and (hopefully) I'll be proven wrong, or it will never out, in which case, we still really don't have a problem.
