I propose a game. Our resident improv artist, FB, might be especially familiar with this. The point is to have an entire conversation in only questions.
I'll start:
Hey - who put that cactus here?

What are you doing here on-topic, mavarchierick? ...is there another pairing? Why does the simple, generic act of speaking out against injustice always seem to trigger the gossip-mongers? Why can't someone offer this noble gesture to even the likes of Red Sox fans if need be? And why shouldn't there be a new punctuation mark to indicate an exclamated question to save me the dilemma of pissing off the Punctuation Gods time and time again?!?!?!???

And aren't there other selections from the "Book of Cactus Beatitudes" such as "he who sits on mighty cactus is a multi-pointed individual?" And don't those ladies who might be noting the non-gender-neutral he in the proverb realize that if I used " she sits on a mighty cactus" I'd run the risk of being labeled a misogynist?

<When the toad hops up with Could they be remiss with their expedience, mav-arch? in a hopeless attempt to confuse the issue, does he understand the word cheat?> Does our shaman of dubious entity understand that when he equates toad with the image of a cheat he is bound to libel and raise the ire of our froggy, new-fatherhood friend? right, Hyla? And doesn't it seem that his phrase DONG! That's a definite full-stop, twice over. is the first non-question so brazenly posted in violation of the rules? And wasn't he really just pricking his own balloon? And with this is there any reason I should not wholeheartedly rest my case? And will my said-accuser ever address the arch-Sybilhood of his appearances on this board, or will he just continue to hide behind the cactus flower?

anti-cactus conspiracy Isn't it time, thank God, that someone else has become aware of this insidious movement? Don't you know the real underlying motive of the Anti-Cactus Conspirators (ACC) is to eliminate all tequila from the face of the earth!

What was I thinking about, opening this thread started by my current hostess without her being here to explain it? Oh, yoo-hoo, Sparteye, wherefore art thou at the moment?

{blue]Don't you know the motive of the Anti-Cactus Conspirators (ACC) is to eliminate all tequila from the face of the earth!
If I start drinking this bottle, can you start on that one? How many more have we got to go before we eliminate them all? Rod

How many more do we have to go before we eliminate them all? Don't you know that I'm getting my meads thrixed? Can you tell that I wrote this response with another question game in mind, but I have no choice but to post it here? Do you know, cohort Rod, that our cover you've blown, So our speed at imbibing must bring our goal home? Can you see our dilemma as Cuervo's world squirms?-- Pray, which one of us, sir, will eat all the worms?

Didn't you notice that I tried to merge them as well in another post?
Did you know that the Germans warn against mixin' your drinks?. Is it four, five, or perhaps six in the same glass is the most? Do you want to perm- anently damage yourself and become a diet of worm?
