I have come to like Gretchen's mouth. She can answer for herself. My favoruite line: "... there is strength in number and more anxiety." I love when you turn an idiom into a second point of view!

I'm not sure I have the right to comment first. I haven't been playing the "first to comment game."
But here's my comment anyway:
Weirsdo's oral interpretation of literature is lovely.
Most excellent writing and reading.
Now. Where the heck is that boy? He could have walked to Berlin by now.
Sine non qua.
Without this blog the Internet would be meaningless.

Karen, it's like Masterpiece Theatre without the masterpiece.
TLP, it takes a while when you avoid the mud.
Thanks, Actonbell. I like my Zeugma with water.
Tom, with this blog it doesn't make much sense.
TLP, Tom's kidding,
Wrong ID, too, Minka.
She's sassy, isn't she? I like sassy.
LOL Tom! But what sense would this blog make without the Internet?
Terrific reading by Weirsdo! Great voice for Frau Braun.
I love that last line, Doug. Very funny! Gretchen is a quick-witted swine lover.
Frau Braun , next swine flu carrier..
aww don't be so modest it's quite a masterpiece, with masterful readings as well.
Trading virtue for masonry, what a novel idea.
Thanks everybody. It was fun as always.
Good question, Ariel. I can't even draw.
JD, the hogs fairly demand it.
Not the next one, Anonymous.
Cooper, I'm kind of hoping it catches on.
Thank you, Weirsdo. It was masterful as always.
