Nothing even remotely alcoholic is comparable to Scumble.

Very cool, Morty! Unfortunately, I just can't do the blues. (It doesn't work... I'll tell Jande about this thred though. She can do the blues.)

Bacchus, wearing snorkel and mask, emerges from grape juice, now died a sort of regal purple from head to toe

I've been down there over an hour digging the pistonoid, workmanlike movements of your feet, and i have to say I'm damned impressed, especially in the middle of my back where Big Mick stepped on me. You are all to be commended. Anybody want to borrow the snorkel?

Now where's that danged virgin? My juice-proof watch tells me it's quarter til sacrifice o'clock! But you know, I don't like the look of those thunderheads building up around Olympus there. I believe my step-Dad Dr Zeus might be cooking up a few lightning bolts for my guests.

RRRRRRuuuummmmbllle

Lavender Blue Dilly Dilly...sorry Bacchus. You inspired me.

Damn Zeus! That was my last toga. All I have left now is a polyester pants suit.

"Toga or not Toga
that is the question ?
wHether it is knobblier in the mire
to suffer the bolts
an brickbats of outraged deities
or take up arms
against a tub of grape juice
and by so doing
Vintage.....hic... "
and subsides into a drunken stupor at the side of the tub.
clutching an amphora, and muttering
" you are my scumble,,,my only scumble...

OK, this lightning matter is becoming serious. Lifeguard says everyone out of the wine vat! Here, I'll get Micca's right arm if someone can grab his left. One..two..three...up you go, lad.

Oh man, do you know how many times I have had to carry Micca, as drunk as a carrot, out of olive groves???Oh yes, of course you do, you're Bacchus, you put him there in the first place. While we're here ( and is he getting heavier or is it just me?) you might want to know that your sacrifice has just run off with a nymph and that last bolt of lightening scorched all the leaves off the grove where Alison and Mick are being 'educational'.Should we tell them or should I go get the video camera?
