    Who says it's the boss's time?

    I've noticed a lot of people here during the mid-day. I'm just wondering what we're all procrastinating on to look at the message boards....

    Studying by far. Just the word makes me cringe.

    *looks around carefully, sneaks to computer* *whispers* working... and sleeping too, but working gets in the way of that as well. Never fencing! I just happen to have labwork that I can sit at the computer and do at night, so I tend to be around more than.

    hey, Inquartata, its beats the normal: I simply run out of brain power and thought at the midpoint in the sentence.

    Watch out... I might be forced to drool on you in my sleep. (eeeew!) Or something like that.

    Myra drools in her sleep. Ok -- way too much information!

    Blue Falcon, I didn't state I DO drool in my sleep, simply that I might be forced to in retaliation.

    but then again, everyone is capable of drooling in their sleep.

    But aren't epeeists the ones who can still sleep in the middle of a bout?

    see, it might be that epeeists are some of the most sleep deprived out there. I know I am these days. This way, I don't trade sleep for fencing, or fencing for sleep.

    And when I finally lose my balance and begin to topple over, I'll call it a lunge, or in the extreme, a fleche. But how do you explain toe touches? hmm...

    Toe touches? That's what you call a VERY lucky stumble on your part!

    And you are capable of drooling. And you're THREATENING drooling on someone. Eeeeeewwwww!!!

    Please! ( He said, adopting a pained expression. )

    Sabre fencers do not drool; we salivate.
