... I have dropped out of the top ten in Raspberry Bored posts due to my weekend absence. I shall have to become gratuitive to regain my rightful place.
Or I could post the remaining wedding blog entries in single sentence messages.

I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

Nothing wrong with a little gratuity. Ask any waiter or waitress.
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

This is a gratuitous post about Uly's new avatar. It shows HeCAT-E (or a cousin) watching EvilSquirrel (or a cousin) on television!
I don't think he can top this one.

So now we have gratuitous posts about gratuitous avatars?

I don't think Sprots' post was gratuitous.
But who is HeCAT-E and how can we tell that the cat in the avatar is her?
(I'm familiar with the mythological reference.)

But I like using the word gratuitous.

It's a word that seems to show up a lot on Wednesday for some reason.
I hate it because I always type it wrong the first time. I'm going to start cutting and pasting the damn thing or just leave it out of my post like I am this one.

Not only waiters and waitresses, but everyone seems to expect tips these days. There are tip jars everywhere!

And for anyone still planning to audition for WWTBAM this year, don't forget to tip your interviewer!
