I share my birthday with a fair number of scientists -- Louis Pasteur is also on the list.
-D: Lucky.-
Well then, who shares your birthday I wonder? *wikis October 22nd* October 22nd, ????
-VD: . . . . I share my birthday with CURLY from THE THREE STOOGES?!-
-M2: *bursts out laughing*-
There's a Nobel Prize laureate on there too! Clinton Davisson!
-VD2: *dignity wounded* Still. . . .-
Hey, Clara shares her birthday with Jules Verne. That should be enough for you.
-OD: Yes, at least we have that.-
-M: Anyone notable share my birthday?-
June 9th, ????
-VuM: Johnny Depp? *looks around for fangirls*-
Trust me, Mike Fox has enough of his own. You have your share of composers and singers, like Cole Porter.
-VM: I'm more interested in the fact Emperor Nero committed suicide on my birthday.-
Heh. How about I make up for it -- June 9th is apparently Race Unity Day and Children's Day.
-M: Hey, that's cool.-
-OD: *tentacles chatter* Do we have any holidays?-
*checks* A few saints, and Anti Police Brutality Day.
-VD2: I see. Well, I'm against individuals, regardless of occupation, getting abused, so yay.-
( Silly Strickland )
Anthro thoughts continue, leading to a brief experiment in giving a sim a muzzle. Results were problematic.
-DW: How so?-
Well, I was able to give my test Sim a huge nose and a large jaw, but I couldn't figure out how to push forward her upper lip. *frown* I mean, I know muzzles and such can be done (Look Here), but I can't wrap my mind around it. Perhaps it's a Bodyshop thing.
-DW: It could be. Does this mean you might actually do some furry Sims?-
I don't know. I've been looking at the skins -- I'm just not sure that a furry neighborhood could hold my interest. Especially with Twin Oaks Park around.
-TD: You could simply incorporate a furry family into that neighborhood.-
Hmmmmmm. . . . Escaped Lab Animal, perhaps. . . .
-TD: *grin* Precisely! You could even make it a skunk person!-
Heh, well, I have the DocWolf thoughts -- if I did do it, I might have to make a little family of escapees.
-DW: I just know I'd end up with the skunk girl, though. . . .-
:D I might be nice and attempt CoyoteClara or GypsyFox. . . .
-TD: Well, can't fault your writing for today -- finished up what you didn't do yesterday for "Dusky Past," and worked on "Boy Genius." But you're a bit sluggish in typing.-
Sorry. Shiny interent and personal exhaustion.
-OD: At least you have evidence of drawing.-
Heh, yeah -- I did anthrodoodles at work (kinda slow today). GypsyFox and MartyFox, SkunkMe, DocWolf. I think I may have the paw situation figured out.
-VD: Still, it would be nice to see you typing. How about some more "Big Teeth?"-
-VD2: That's one story we all agree you should be working on.-
-TD: And if you need some pep, just drink this!-
Visions of Jagershots dance through my head.
-TD: It's safe! Trust me! It's simply a new take on caffeine!-
Like I said before, you dri--
-D: Wait a moment! Do we really want a hyperactive Spark running around?-
-VD2: Do we want a hyperactive her running around either?-
-TD: Then what do you suggest I do with it, min -- alternate older selves?-
-VuM: Nice save.-
-VD: We need a safe control subject. Someone we're sure won't react too negatively if under the influence of modified caffeine.-
-D: *looks at Jennifer*-
-J: I want to know for certain it isn't poisonous.-
-TD: Fine, I'll get the ingredient list.-
*sneaks off to do fanfiction while they experiment*
