Oversoul - Ah, you've brought back memories of Malvolio, our adopted stray gray tomcat, who consumed half a chocolate cheesecake he discovered cluttering up HIS table.

Rick - you've brought back fond memories of the "Thanksmas Celebration" (The new holiday that falls between...) in which one member's mother discovered the "special dressing" on top of the sideboard, gobbled down an immoderate amount, and giggled in the corner for the rest of the evening. She fared better than I did, at another party, after consuming someone's "special brownies", I being clueless and consuming far too many; I remember amazing flights of fancy following by a long session of throwing up and dry heaves. What joy!
