||||||||| Catherwood announces, "The time is 4:33 AM - I now declare Thursday's chat log for January 15, 2009 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| 6:46 AM: Fire-Fi-Fo_Fum-broiled jumps out of the hall closet saying "I've been listening to all of you talking about me for the past hour!"
Fire-Fi-Fo_Fum-broiled: My fellow Americans:
This morning, at 6:25 A. M.,
Pacific Standard time,
combined elements of the Imperial Japanese navy and air force
ruthlessly attacked our naval base at Pearl Harbor in the Hawaiian Islands.

I have conferred this morning with Congress
and the Chiefs of Staff in emergency session.
We have reached our rendezvous with destiny!
It is our unanimous and irrevocable decision
that the United States of America
unconditionally surrender!

And now, my wife and I would like to return with you

for the thrilling conclusion of “Private Nick Danger, Third Eye.”

||||||||| "Hey Bubba's Brain!" ... Bubba's Brain turns, and sees Bradshaw approching with the handcuffs, and is dragged away, screaming "it's only 8:44 PM, I don't have to go yet!"...
||||||||| Catherwood leads Dexter Fong in through the front door at 8:49 PM, picks up his cues (only slightly scorched), and heads for the billiard room.

H. Stones : A grumpy old man walks into a local First Baptist Church and says to the secretary, “I wanna join this damn church.” The astonished woman replies, “I beg your pardon, sir. I must have misunderstood you. What did you say?” “Listen up, dammit. I said I want to join this damn church!”
llanwydd: no water?
cease: and this is supposed to be the height of civilization
H. Stones : I’m very sorry sir, but that kind of language is not tolerated in this church.” The secretary leaves her desk and goes into the pastor’s study to inform him of her situation. The pastor agrees that the secretary does not have to listen to that foul language. They both return to her office and the pastor asks, “Sir, what seems to be the problem here?”
cease: no water, no. nothing drinkable, washable, anything
H. Stones : “There IS no damn problem!,” the man says. “Looky here, I just won $200 million bucks in the damn lottery and I want to join this damn church to get rid of some of this damn money.” “I see,” said the pastor. “And is this bitch giving you a hard time?”
