:) We have big picture windows in the front of the office.  Sid lolls
:) in the windows most of the day and accepts the adulation of all who
:) pass.  Many, especially after-hours, tap on the window and play with
:) him and talk to him.

and, the point of the needle

:) This extremely annoys Wes.  Nobody coos about how cute *he* is.

Now, none of us wants Wes annoyed.  (Doesn't that sound like something
you'd buy in the salad dressings in a grocery?  Could I have a bottle of
wesannoyed, fat-free, for tomorrow's party?  Yes, I mix it myself,
wesannoyed and vinegar, they go together like oil and water...)

So, to avoid the dangers of wesannoyance, the heartbreak of wesvexation,
or the continuing agony of wesexasperation (say that three times
quickly!), let's all coo where nobody coos, tweet, tweettweet,
tweettweet...

Show us all just how *CUTE* Wes is.  Write about now!

I can just imagine his dimples sucking in and firming up in those
pinchable red cheeks, that fine eyelid drawing down in a quirky wink,
that left arm stretching out to hold me out where the right haymaker can
really impact!

oh, what a cutey-pie!

So let's get those one-liners, limericks, and other paeans of peculiarly
pointed wit to that cutesy-wootsey Wessey coming.

write!
