The Institute went ZOMG you're discriminating the menz! Ohnoes! Shame! Shame! Unlawful! (I kid you not.) Yeah, never mind the men would get it too if they bought something, but obviously even on Women's Day you shouldn't do something for women, right? The men would feel left out and that's all what matters.

Well, if it's tastes right again, you must be cured. Eating chocolate is like a fail-sure test for being cured!

Now THAT stinks. Sometimes I think we should all be evil and poison the red-tapists' coffees...

Then they'd probably whine how discrimitory of us it is to spike just their coffee. The tea, water, milk and other beverages will feel left out!

I was going to say 'of course, otherwise the text would feel discriminated!' but I think that joke has run its course...

By the way, RÃ*an, Varna had a question for you in the journeys discussion thread.

That's what I thought. They're all gone now...

And for my birthday, I was given a Heath bar AND a Snickers! I still have the Snickers...

ok - thanks!

oh, btw, my daughter and I will be heading to New Jersey in a week for a two-week course of medical treatment for her. We're hoping that she will be well enough to let us sight-see. We are only 30 minutes away from the Empire State building, so we're pretty close to fun stuff in NY. I think I'll start a thread to ask for recommendations ...

So I'm not crazy! I saw that too. Is it a countdown until the entire world is destroyed?

If this countdown thing results in Entmoot being destroyed, I'm going to jump off the nearest ledge.

Re: We Have Treenapped Your Ent! April 1st, 2013

~Quietly in the foliage Hector waited, crouched and alert to every sound the forest made. But the question that burned his brain was "where had they taken Treebeard?" Surely one did not simply 'treenap' and Ent! But then, the Entwives had disappeared long ago, and only vague, misty rumors were left in their path. What would happen to Entmoot if the master-ent dissappeared? What would happen to Fangorn?

Now Hector heard sounds that were not natural to the forest. Voices, two or three of them, possibly four. Mirkwood elves, he thought. It was instinctual to him to think so. But as footsteps came into hearing range as well as voices, Hector recognized the heavy tread of iron boots. He listened.

Voice 1: "---that's what the Dark Lord means to do, so you'd better not blab!"

Voice 2: "I'm no blabber, Grintkol. You forget I was head-orc of Saruman's Intelligence."

Voice 1: "Saruman's intelligence! No wonder he had so little of it. But just the same, don' be lettin' the others know what we've got hidden. No peep even now of the place it's at. They say there's a fierce general who lives in these parts."

Voice 2: You'll see, I'll keep it quiet. And no general's going to stop us!"

The voices passed farther down the road, and Hector, waiting until they moved out of sight and sound, dashed up the road to follow them quietly. But just as noisily as they had come, there was no sound or sight of them. Fearing some trap, Hector hastily ran in the other direction, then cut through the woods back to Entmoot Town. He had to tell the others!

Man, first they deface our banner, now they nap our ent? That's just rude!

You turn your back for the weekend to do some gardening, and someone makes off with your local ent...

Does anybody know Quickbeam's number? Maybe he can stand in for the time being.
