You think I'd run away to a cave like that? Come now, come now, you give me absolutely no credit for imagination!

And this is supposed to make me feel secure how? About all I can think of is that, as implied earlier, y'all wouldn't blow up the place you were actually occupying, so being nearby would create a lower probability of being destroyed.
But still... all that noise...

You know, this does present a situation calling for strategy, though. The time to retreat will, of course, inevitably come. However, if we want to survive it, it might work best if we coordinated the retreat... you know, both started running at the same time or something.
On second thought, though, there are two of them, so I don't know how much that would help. Hmmmm... choices, choices...
Find cover? Recruit others to run away, too? Stay?

Which brings up another problem... I never did very much like running, and now that I think about it, I may have used up my quota for the day.... Oh, well, there's always later.

Though I might add (for, oh, no one in particular) that those who malign my caves should beware of dire consequences...

Hey, remember, there's always the security of refrigeratorhenge! :D

Not to mention the limitless supply of snacks!

Albeit, they're mostly all cold....

Perhaps I need to begin construction of microwavehenge! :D

Well let us see, some of my grand plans are.

1. Turn Detroit over to OCP, they will get the dump taken care of.

2. Wall up Manhattan Island, use it as a prison.

3. Drop California into the Pacific Ocean, instant beach front property

That is just the start..
Yes, sir. I agree completely. It takes a well-balanced individual... such as yourself to rule the world. No, sir. No one knows that you were the third one... Solidus. ...What should I do about the woman? Yes sir. I'll keep her under surveillance. Yes. Thank you. Good-bye...... Mr. President.

Hmmm... okay, I know which areas to stay away from in the short term...
But Solidus, when I do decide to run away to my cave, you will never find it. No, no, that's not a challenge; it's a statement of simple and unalterable fact. :lol:

Which is why I'll be sitting in my comfy little (USS Ronald Reagan x2 sized) orbiting fighter/cruiser watching the fireworks display. :wink:

Parma? Pffftt.....he gives me any grief he gets ground into Parma-shan and used to top my Fettucini. :P

Parma knows better than to mess with me.....why do you think his cousin Swiss is so full of holes? :roll:

S'aaruuk

Speaking of epicurian delights.....have you ever tried chunks of Parmesan dipped in either straight Balsamic vinegar, or a mix of Balsamic and olive oil? It's a great appitizer and the flavor is incredible.

Please do, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I learned of this little delight from one of my clients who took me to dinner at this little Italian restautant in Tampa with decor straight out of any "mob" movie you could think of. He told me to quitely look around. I did and the majority of 'patrons' were all men well into their 70's. According to my client, and I had no reason to think he was putting me on, most of these old dudes were "former" mafia types quite possibly reminesing about "the good old days".

All in all it was a unique experience, and the food was out of this world. That's one of the better perks about my job, I get to eat in some the finest restaurants courtesy of either my client or the management. Seriously, some restaurants will treat the chauffeur to anything on the menu when they bring in a party for dinner...all I do is tip the server which I do happily......can't beat that deal with a spiked club.

I've wondered what people did with balsamic vinegar.
I don't understand restaurants. I cook for myself, where I can trust what I'm eating.
I was given a $40 gift card for the local Olive Garden franchise restaurant a year and a half ago (fanciest place I've ever been to) and I still have over $30 left on it.

Anyway, it looks like the subject of the original topic still hasn't experienced any life-changing traumas. Well, one can always hope. "Goth Angst" poetry fashioned into a vulture's nest is appealing, but I'm waiting for the bugged-out eyes and the screaming. :wink:
Avoid those who speak badly of the people, for such wish to rule over you.
