The real deal
I am not lying about the Kickapoo. It is an anctual river. Zoom in on this map once and look directly north of Wauzeka. My dad grew up there. |

I had no doubt that it was a real river. I still laughed every time a read it. Kickapoo - what were they thinking?

Kickapoo isn't nearly as funny as Mississippi.
How many rivers have an eleven letter name, but only 4 different letters? And then theres the fact that the consonats othr than m a always paired! |

Aside from that, there's also "Kickapoo Joy Juice", from the old Li'l Abner comic strips....
I don't recall the composition of the original (the strip ceased publication in our newspaper when I was about 12 years old, and it only ran on Sundays), but my dad said that his Army buddies--forty-odd years ago, he was posted at Redstone Arsenal, in Alabama-- had their own version for when they were on leave. Essentially, it was a homemade concoction, using virtually every form of alcoholic beverage available on post, or whatever the cheapest stuff was that could be found in the nearest liquor store (except for beer and straight alcohol (i.e., grain alcohol/ethanol), I think), mixed together in a (hopefully clean!) washtub, jerrycan, or fuel barrel, and with enough fruit-flavored punch added to disguise most of the flavor. He also told me that there was another version, colloquially called "Purple Jesus". Essentially, it was the same thing, except that it used grape KOOL-AID as flavoring. The "purple" part of the name is obvious; the rest is supposedly derived from the first pained utterance by a victim when he/she woke up the following day with a splitting headache and a hangover. :P --Foreigner This post has been edited by Foreigner: Sep 20 2005, 12:29 AM |

The Elf Porn-tthread brought me to another question: can Drop Bears actually cross-breed?

I imagine that result would be vampiric koala shapeshifters, or do you mean with koalas? I still think that they just infect normal koalas but anything is possible. Gouls can have children, I know. What about Vampires; can they reproduce? |

Well, fluid transfers are required, just not the ones you are thinking of.
I do not recall specific prohibition, but it may be there. |

Makes me rethink of how my college courses can be miscontrued... Fluid transfer, mass transfer, heat transfer, thermodynamics... 'it's getting hot in here... so take off all you...' Sorry, that song slipped out. :oops: And then there's some of the stuff at work, I deal with injection molding for plastics... where there's a molding apparatus having a female and male mold member, wherein the male member mates with female mold with the male member entering the cavity of the female memer. Then hot molten material is injected under pressure... what? y'all are sick! sick I tell you! :eek: Back to the topic... I don't see why the drop koala can't. I also think they'll probably infect their non-drop koala mate... All the more reason for safe sex in the koala world, eh? |

Elf/Dropbear porn? There are almost certainly little corners of the Matrix dedicated to it. I am certain that there would be HMHVV porn sites. There would also be bestiality porn sites. It doesn't take much imagination for someone to combine the two. Anyone with half a brain and some patience can find anything on the internet. Anyone with half a brain and some patience can find anything and more in the Matrix. |

Sorry, but I see some problems coming up with wendigo's in porn. For one, I don't see them really ever making it to the 'money shot' before one of them gets 'mouth full' of 'something'. It was a tough decision, by the way, between quotations marks and italics. Thank you for your patience and support.
Of course drop bears can breed. If something as stupid and pointless and a lemming can breed, why wouldn't a drop bear? Jray - I think we're related or something. Any long lost family of scottish descent? |

Sounds like a mix between elf porn, bestiality and snuff films all in one!
