, since I threw that fizz drink at Spendius in a fit of irritation

Splashed my little scarlet number too, Osso! But I'm not complaining - won't be the first time I've had to ask the cleaners to remove stains after get-togethers like this one.

@vonny,

It is a mark of distinction to goad a lady into throwing an expensive drink in one's face.

@spendius,

And how many marks of distinction have you chalked up, Spendius?

@vonny,

Two for real and a book ripped to shreds. A few plates of food.

Evolution wouldn't have worked with women larger than men.

It's likely human evolution would have come to a screeching halt had there been a majority of individuals with your narrow view of women.

It occurs to me spendius that you aren't evenly soaked and since this offends my eyes I will toss this egg cream on you.

There now! That's much better!

Don't worry about the clean-up Wassau, I'll get the floor and table tended to myself. As far as spendi's clothing, you must admit it looks a lot better now.

While I can understand the irresistble impulse to douse him, it does seem to be a waste of a perfectly good egg cream.

Wassau, bring this man another egg cream, please, and I'd like one too.

Poor Spendi. I take two days off from visiting the cafe and see what happens. All you folks need classes in anger management. Me, I get angry, I just sulk.

Evolution would have been the mechanism for making women larger than men. Now what reason could evidence provide of that?
I doubt you have a clue or an idea of what you just said

My view of women, the lovely little darlings, is derived from female authors and a certain amount of experience which confirmed what they had said about themselves.

I will toss the dunny tub over you now you have set the precedent.

It's raining outside and given what's going on in here I'm keeping my umbrella open

Wassau, please hand my tea over.

Thanks very much.

I plead "not guilty" or "insanity."

Whichever you are willing to buy!

@ehBeth,

And why do I find myself wondering about what is behind the umbrella?

I think in NYC, home of the egg cream, that would be considered a desecration and a sacrilege.

The true egg cream must be made with Foxes U-Bet Chocolate Syrup.

Foxes U-Bet does make a malt syrup, but purists would never use that in an egg cream. Of course, if you made it in the privacy of your own home, and no one knew about it.....Under such conditions of secrecy, I myself have been known to substitute orange flavored seltzer for plain seltzer in my egg creams...

but, don't breath a word about that to anyone.

And, to be really authentic, the seltzer should come from a pressurized cylinder bottle--if you can't get it directly from a fountain--
