My Husband "Subvet" says that when our first son "Sonshine" was born the sun rose on our world, when our second son "Gator" was born the sun laughed and when our daughter "Sugars" was born all the flowers bloomed. That says it all.

I know these. Salertus was a member of the Roman senate during the time of Caligula. Salertus kept his head when so many others lost theirs by being one of Caligula's best drinking buddies.
(Harry, you keep up the Kipling allusions and we're gonna be great pals!)

Salacious is how the food really tastes to them. (sailors) It's not quite delicious, after all. It's the sailor's palate's compromise. Tabasco sauce helps in making said food salacious.

For all winners, the Awards can be found just below the "rules" on the sidebar to pick up at your leisure.

Logaoedic - An Italian epic opera, all yodeled.
