"Good morning!"

[Manatee]

Ahh so you also don't like parades then?

I mind them if they inconvenience me (e.g., cause traffic problems, or in this case, wake me up).  Parts of it were sort of fun to see though.  I was in a few when I was a kid.

Ah ok.

Hey, you celebrate it over there, too?

Good evening.

Actually, it's almost good night from where i sit.

Well, hello then.
Suits it better.

[Steve Jones]

Morning, team.  Pleasantly overcast here, and not as hot as it has been

[Iggy]

Morning

Cloudy here too. Which is pleasing the animals no end.

[Manatee]

Bah.  Morning.  There's this big yellow thing in the sky, which is making it hard to sleep.

You shouldnt have put so much fizz into the pancake dough, Greenie

You know Nicky, if it weren't for the fact that you clearly know English very well, I'd think there was a language gap at work here.  Instead, I've concluded you're just "special."

Hi....

[The Butterfly Man]

Good morning.

I'm gonna try to be a bit more active in the room again. Since I'm back from Cuba I'm a bit lazy in the Room-department, I must admit. I guess my mind was still in holiday-mode due to the loads and loads of brilliant weather we got in Holland recently. Today is the first rainy day since I'm back so slowly (but very surely) everything is turning back to normal...

Alright Tom, we're awaiting your contributions!

And a good morning!

Fizz is:

"3. soda water or other effervescent water."

- Dictionary.com

Keeps the pancake in the air 

I thought it was a rather straightforward badinage 


Why do you think I'm special ? 

Fortunately Ms 007 thinks so too 

Good tip btw, Greenie, for our ongoing dating counselling:  If you can get a woman to laugh heartily, she'l open up and let you do anything with her

You mean like a hovercraft?

Because you think it was a rather straightforward badinage.   
As a basic rule of thumb, anyone more confusing than me is either nuts or female (I shan't relate the two lest I drive away any potential Mrs. Greens out there).

I can get them to laugh just fine.  Usually it turns out they were laughing like an evil scientist.  Maybe Paco has a nice older sister.  He's only evil when he's dealing with you.   



Oh, and Good Morning!  Apparently my body has decided that I will now be waking up in the bright shiny AM on a regular basis now.  That's a sign that I'm either old or broken (sometime it's hard to discern the difference).

More like a hoverpancake

Maybe you should wait with showing'm your nuts 

Nicky.

[Manatee]

Maybe you should wait with showing'm your nuts 

I'll bear that in mind if I'm suddenly gripped by an urge to drop trou in a Starbucks (or wherever it is first dates happen nowadays).  Thus far I've managed to contain myself until a more appropriate moment.

Good evening, from Vianen, The Netherlands 

[Teunis]

Greetings back from Kampen, The Netherlands 

[maddox]

Eh...hello.

Good morning to you.

[Steve Jones]

Morning sleepyheads...

[Iggy]

Morning all

[Teunis]

Good morning, enjoy your Saturday  .
