Somebody needs to taste-test the weasel poop and weasel puke coffees against each other. Somebody not me.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sail, there should be no problem. I'm not sure why Perkins got a bounceback or two. I'll have to check into it.

I've tried the weasel-poop coffee, and it wasn't bad.

My outbox says it went out okay. Hopefully, it gets received!
I don't know if I could drink weasel-anything coffee. Even if it tasted good, my brain would still be going "ewwwww."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
After hearing about weasel-poop coffee, weasel-puke coffee sounds pretty tame.

Anyone know the French for "Surrender!"? Or of any French poetry that would have been famous in the Napoleonic era?
"Surrender!" would be "Livrez-vous!"
I can't help you with the poetry, not much to speak of I think. Not much literature from that period is read today. Sade, Chateaubriand, and maybe a few others.
If you can wait til Monday, I could look through my anthology of French poetry and probably come up with a few things.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
My guess is that it won't be able to wait until tomorrow, even. But that is an assumption, based on BEARS.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Aww, poor Matilda. But OMG, she's old enough for tumbling?!?!
She can somersault, jump on the trampoline and hang from a bar and put up her feet. She won't go on the trapeze though that is part of the course.
Her lump has gone down after a nap and doesn't look so bad. She was mollified with chocolate milk and a Christmas cookie (blue star).
Usually I'm there to spot her on anything she's playing on at the Circus Center (and everything is padded except the wall). But another kid had run out underneath the bungie cord boat path and I had scooped her up to return her to her parents. I turned around in time just to see Matilda cry out and grab her head.

"Surrender!" would be "Livrez-vous!"
Thanks, megan! Would that work for a military surrender? (Directed at the captain of a ship.)
The deadline is in a few hours, so there's no need to go through your anthologies.
But that is an assumption, based on BEARS.
Since I've completed my assignment for Yuletide, I'm running around for other people, editing and doing research. I've lost track of the number of stories I've looked at in the last day.

You are a very good person, Shrift.
