Going Temporarily M.I.A.

[CopyCarver]

Just wanted to let "my" writers know that I'll soon be leaving the country for several weeks (Hey, stop cheering!) and I won't have Net access from other than "approved" sources. If you're planning to send me any manuscripts, you'll need to get them to me within the next few days or after I return. (You could give them to another ed. of course, but that would motivate my attack gerunds to inflict severe reprisals.)

Aww, we'll miss you
Have a good time, whatever you're doing!

I appreciate the well wishes, but--given the destination--enjoyment is probably not an option.

I'll miss you, studly. Who else is going to make me say "What the hell?!?!?" on the Word Association thread?

Have a safe trip and hurry home ... unless of course you're going to an all inclusive beach resort ... then stay as long as your credit card will allow.

I've left a list of off-the-wall free associations in my desk drawer and deafted a couple staffers to work them into the thread. Just wait until they get the chance to post "rephlungimate."

no fair if you just make them up!

psst .. jen, does "rephlungimate" mean something in German?

Seriously, though ... take care and have a safe trip.

Have a safe trip CC. Take care of yourself and come back to us in one piece please. You'll be missed.

Nope, it doesn't. I could make up any number of odd words in German though

How does Scheibenwischerwaschwasser sound?

Sounds good if it has anything to do with *washing someting in water*. I seem to remember that "wasser" is water and your "wischerwasch" remind me of clothes washer. As for "scheiben" the only thing close and ressembling it would be "schreiben" but then I don't see what a washer, water and writing would do together.

It makes the ink run so that you can't ... quite ... make ... out ... what ...it ... says!

Close, actually It's the water used to wash your windshield wipers. You get ten points

Ooooh...ten points and a kiss...hit me again baby.

Um... how about Käsefonduetopfreiniger?

And as a bonus, have you heard of Wadde Hadde Dudde Da?

On a side note, I can't believe I actually just mentioned that.

Does it involve some perverse melted cheese fetish?
