Sort of like eggnog and nutmeg, I'd guess. But the yegg
has fermented yak milk. So I guess the eggnog would need
its rum too.

sure, I'll vote for I if no one else will.

(although I don't think we actually need yet another word for schlemiel, as Yiddish already seems to have several (I recall reading somewhere a differentiation amongst shlemiel/shmendrick/shlimazel/schlump/etc. (your spellings may vary.))

by the bye, I wonder if someone has actually noticed that zmjezhd gives his location as R'lyeh..

Oh, I noticed that right away, and wrote to him, whereupon he was kind enough to 'splain to me.

Edit: ooh, guess what I found out just now when I ran that through Google? There's a monstropedia on the internet!

yes..I noticed too.

But I voting for B I've checked the owners manual for our Rayburn wood stove and though it mentions adhesive with the gasket that needs replacing yearly (on boy its well overdue)it says its included in kit. Doesn't give name.

I wonder, still could be zmjezd, he voted last time (surprise). I still owe him a thanks for his vote. Then R'lyeh would an ultimate challenge in a way.
