Re: MaryAnne Wiseman (SCP-DFF)
Glad to see you here on the forum, but sad that you and JDaw left NYC. I'm not sure if you remember, but it was g-man and I at that farewell NYC tasting in The French Roast. Chol is normal, tri's are a borderline

Thanks for the note. Yes, we are also a bit sad about leaving NY, me more than Julian, but Paris is wonderful and we're settling nicely here. Hopefully you'll be able to come over the pond and visit for a port tasting! Julian is happy here also because he gets to go to more tastings in or near London! And oh, the beer! Fahget about it! If fact, J is in the UK right now having some fun. He was at a port tasting last Friday. He probably posted some tasting notes about it too!
Anyway, glad to have met you, even if it was only for the farewell gathering at French Roast.

Can you tell what my Avatar is?
Re: MaryAnne Wiseman (SCP-DFF)
Apart from poorly focussed and unable to be enlarged, I can only guess. It appears to be something like a large bowl of ice cream or a plucked but uncooked chicken. Am I close?!

My heroic husband came to my rescue and helped me improve my avatar. Hurray for hubby! Now it looks better. Nice guess DRT. I do love foie gras, but I think I love ice cream better. It's my favorite thing. Ben, you were right.
Now I feel more official with a legit avatar.

Now then, Mary-Anne, back to the subject at hand: A big bowl of home-made chocolate ice cream or a heroic husband?

The big bowl of ice cream, while wonderous at the time, is one and done.
The heroic husband, on the other hand, supplies a regular stream of Port to drink.
Even *I* would choose correctly in this instance.

Re: MaryAnne Wiseman (SCP-DFF)
OK - we have established that Glenn would rather have Julian as a husband than eat a bowl of chocolate ice cream. An interesting choice but not really where I thought this conversation would go.
I think SCP-DFF's opinion is essential to bring some focus back to this conversation.

Re: MaryAnne Wiseman (SCP-DFF)
My wife’s opinion is surely that the heroic husband is better than a lifetime of ice cream. Isn’t that right dear.

Hmmmm, yes, the question at hand. Well, yes, I do love a huge bowl of scrumptious ice cream. But, let me tell you a story. Once upon a time there was a beautiful woman who was in a major crisis. Desperation. She was having a severe ice cream craving. It was *ahem* that time of the month. Major crisis. Fear not, she had her heroic man (who is now said husband), hairy bare-chested, with black leather riding boots and sword in sheath, he immediately jumped on his horse, and swiftly went to all the ice cream shops in downtown Manhattan gathering as much of my favorite flavor as he could find (chocolate peanut butter cookie dough). And with bravery, battled his way back to his damsel in distress, with little effort, and saved his beautiful woman into ice cream bliss. She kissed her bare-chested hero and they lived happily ever after.
Yes, that damsel in distress was me. Indeed! So, I would have to say, and agree with Glenn that if it wasn't for my man, I just may have died from ice cream deprivation, AND he also saves me from port deficiency syndrome as well! As we see, it's the hubby that needs to stay. He'll be the hero to eternally fulfill my desires. All of them!
I know all my women friends want a heroic man just like mine!

Re: MaryAnne Wiseman (SCP-DFF)
I am alarmed by the lack of electronic security at HQ SCP-DFF. A full investigation should surely follow. Can we be assured that any commands from her are from her alone?jdaw1 wrote:The Supreme Commander posted from her computer, unaware that I was logged in from there.

Re: MaryAnne Wiseman (SCP-DFF)
No female alter-ego necessary for my bare-chested, sword-in-sheath hero!
Surely Julian wouldn't do such a thing!

I assume you mean the mid-point between monthly off-lines at The Crusting Pipe? Yes, I agree entirely that it is a difficult time for anyone.SCP-DFF wrote:a major crisis. Desperation....It was *ahem* that time of the month.
The image of a bare-chested Julian charging up 5th Avenue on a horse in black leather boots with his sword sheathed is an image that will unfortunately be difficult to lose. Thanks for sharing.
I will never eat ice cream again

Dear Supreme Commander Port-Drinking Forces France,
Welcome indeed and I trust that the comic interplay will continue for some time although I suggest that perhaps his and hers matching computers may resolve some confusion - principally among your fellow members. I too now have visions of Mr SCP-DFF mounted on his charger, clad in his motorbike boots and sword in sheath (the mind boggles). Since he voluntarily becomes the ice cream hunter/gatherer AND supplies you in port, I may also have the chance to complete to be Mrs JDAW1???
