    But if he's all wet we'll have trouble lighting the fire. Also once the fire is lit it will be all smoky because of the wetness. A smoky fire is terrible for cooking hot dogs on.

    Edit: Thanks Chimmy

    Oh I like that idea. Or how about a lake of coals? Than we could cook up some steaks at the same time.

    Ah, recreating the lost art of witch burning culinary treats. Is there anything better?

    Nope, burning at the steak is a time-honored tradition.

    I want to get kicked out of school because I am a vampire.

    That is just so lame.
    You don't fire people just because they did magic.

    Which, as Maia clarified, is true. You fire them for incompetance.

    that was reserved for only female witches, banz... wizards were left alone in their caves to teach little boys how to become kings by pulling swords out of stones and such...

    Hey, not true! During the Salem witch trials, five men were hung for 'witchcraft', and another was crushed slowly to death under large stones. Who said painful death was sexist?

    ...(geez, black humor makes it so hard to end with a smiley.)

    You just need the right perspective Ivan. Is the black humour affecting you? If yes, its not funny. If no, its hilarious.

    since the method of death in question was 'drowning' not hanging or 'pressing' [as it was called], what i said was true, bubba... ;-)
