Yeah, I think I'll barite here now that alabasters are gone. And I'm being perlite in calling them that, though some people think I should take anotehr lime.

Being here is fun because we have celebrities come in. Did you know that Saturday is going to be Kato Kaolinite? He's probblygoing to make some obsidian remarksm most of which are graphite, but I guess that's his bismuth and he gets to write off his com-pewter on his taxes. And the nice thing about Kato is we don't have to pay him because he's antimony, though we have to feed him and he has a pretty good apatite. About his humus, though, the loess said the better.

As geode is my witness, I think I'm about to diorite here. And I thought it was gonna be a marble-ous crowd. Ouch, you give tufa one and all you get's a wacke. Takes a lot of grit to keep doing this in the face of that kind of pumice-ment.
