Awesome headline:
Randy monkeys wash hands, feet in urine
"So we think the alpha males might use urine-washing to convey warm, fuzzy feelings to females, that their solicitation is working and that there's no need to run away," Miller said. "Or they could be doing it because they're excited."
I almost think that should be whitefonted, but hey, it's

Three Grand Slut
that sounds like either a really really strong drink or a card game though I'm not sure which
Hee. That's an old tradition. Trudy's one of the few that still carry it on. It used to take us much longer to get through posts, and it would be something of a badge of honor to hit large round number posts, like Trudy's 3000. We'd all scamper in our chatter to try to get the number, and would triumphantly declare "Numberslut" and then, of course, later "Number Companion!" with our (generally contentless) posts.
These days we just fly through the posts, so it's not as crazy a deal, although we do still aim for the 10,000 post, after which the thread automatically rolls over and plays dead, until an admin wanders by to set up the new one. Either that or we kill the thread in haiku. Or puns.
And then, we're number geeks, so sometimes we aim for apparently meaningless combinations of numbers.

Big D's a slamming man. One of our old school Buffistae, Victor, is and has been for a long time, active in slams and poetry.
Along with his lovely wife, thessaly.
I'm not here, in case anyone was wondering.
Roanoke's Slam scene imploded otherwise I'd still be active. I did regionals and nationals in 2000, some of the most fun I've ever had.

I've never felt comfortable hiding in the ample forests of normal people.

I think they all went to Croatan.
