Just a warning patrons, this version of SHAKES will have to close in about 75 more posts. Never fear, though, the continuation of SHAKES will be up an running immediately.

Far, here's your porter, in two heavy crystal steins, and a gin and tonic (sapphire, right?).

Wow! After all this drinking, especially, the last three Crazy Janes, I need to visit the Head!
I am so easily amused by Doom Patrol references.

Lift the stein and looks at the thick heavy dark beer, enjoying the smooth creamy head. Then opens mouth and empty's glass in one. Ahhhhh! I needed that.

Same place, drinks always shaken, never stirred. Don't fix what works (I made that up, you know.  )

Close-out party tonight, fer sure!
I'll probably fall asleep soon, though. Could somebody carry me over to the new SHAKES?
Holy Cats of Egypt!

Your hand will have a full one, before you have swallowed the last drop of the first stein.

Oh, the magic of LW will make sure you don't get lost FC. This SHAKES with all its memories will still be there, just entitled, SHAKES Archives II.

Maybe I'll sing when the new place opens - to scare out any ghosts or such.

It's like closing down a part of yourself, are you taking OM stool, he would be very lonesome without it.

Will there be an announcement before you open the new place? Or will this place (thread) just close automatically?

I'm closing this version of SHAKES at 2500 posts. The reason is that there is an increased probablility of thread corruption and lost posts after that. The first SHAKES was allowed to grow uncontrollably and we started losing whole pages of threads at a time. Needless to say, my nobel prize winning work was on those pages.

You better hurry, Myriad, before they pack it for the move.

Hi Miner, the more you drink, the less I'll have to move, so drink up. Here's three more.
