hyla, i would be most appreciative if you could tone down your posts a bit; i keep laughing too loudly and waking the kids.

as for Poohbahphagic condiments... what better than *honey*??

and since i have your ear, may i propose the following solution for your self-described poohbahphobia (ie getting beaten to the punch by tsuwm):

when you see an interesting thread to which you haven't yet formulated a response, simply do as follows:

(1) immediately enter a post with a single "."

(2) wait for tsuwm to offer his eruditions.

(3) copy his entire message using ctrl-A then ctrl-C

(4) go back to your post, which is immediately above tsuwm's, and edit it by clicking ctrl-V

(5) enter a new post directly below tsuwm's, saying "HA! i see i beat you to it!"

(6) wait for the people on the other side of the pond to return home, log into AWAD, and congratulate you on your witty response.
