2. Possibly. Lawyers are on 'the same side', spiritually speaking.

11. Yarg-slagath is a much better name. I have an even better one, I dare you
to walk around with a shirt saying "Atheist and proud of it" :)

(In case you didn't know it, the national stereotype is that Americans get funny with regards to religion)

12. Hey EP!
I just finished a book of Neil Gaiman's short stories (titled Smoke and Mirrors, something like that--if I'm way way off I'll correct it later). There were a couple stories somewhat humorous set in Innsmouth and involving Lovecraftian entities and "doin's"

The last two stories were amazing.

Please accept my best wishes for the weekend and convey the same to the Prophetess! :hi:

17. Here's why we don't see Dick Cheney very often.


It's hard to keep those tentacles under wraps for long.
