Right, of course. Your turn, Saucepan.

bilbo_baggins · 05-06-2004, 09:41 AM

Actually, there are five "L's" in there, Sauce.

Would you mind adding some T's?

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-06-2004, 09:49 AM

I wasn't counting that one.

Here are all the Ts. You can count 'em.

Eleven, or I am wrong. Heeheehee. So there.

And, if you don't mind, E's.

bilbo_baggins · 05-06-2004, 01:14 PM

25 E's, no less.

I think if A appears, then I might know the quote

Guinevere · 05-06-2004, 02:51 PM

I believe I can see it even without the A's...

You again, Guinevere? I might have guessed!

You are, of course, correct.

bilbo_baggins · 05-07-2004, 09:05 AM

GRRRRR!! I'm so frustrated, I could scream. I just can't seem to get the qoute! Gosh-Golly-darn!

Guinevere · 05-07-2004, 01:25 PM

I am sorry, Bilbo!

I will try to restrain myself next time...
