Welcome Justin. Grab a chair, have a drink. Don't mind us, we don't bite.

Well, not much anyway.

Justin, welcome to the gutter. This is not it, but it can't be far away.

Hi Justin! Don't worry - membership of the gutter is not compulsory.

If you've ever been there, Alison, you are a member. Joining seems to be not only free, but mandatory once you'e been there.

Hi Justin. Welcome to the madhouse!

Alison, make sure you study both gutter rule threads as well as the requirements for gutter eligibility.

Just kidding, Dahlink. Come on in.

Gutter membership is quite free and no special skills required. We are an equal opportunity gutter after all.

Jen - I thought biting was ONLY allowed during power outages? My bad.

I'm almost certain biting was outlawed altogether. Or was that peeing? Oh well, it's not like we follow the rules anyway.

Except for cats... mind you, I have to sympathise with anyone who wants to keep Klinsmann out of their gutter!

Oh, he wouldn't do that! He has many faults, but he's always very punctilious about the use of the litter tray. He even buries things after his sister, who seems to consider that it's a menial task and therefore beneath her royal dignity.

My ex-husband's guide dog, being half labrador, used to eat all kinds of stupid things, although guide dogs are not supposed to scavenge. Since he also had a weak digestion, there were often unpleasant results in the middle of the night, and they would always happen by the back door because he'd be desperately trying to get out to his run, bless him. The first time this happened, Klinsmann very conscientiously got hold of the doormat (which must have been extremely heavy for him) and buried the "results" as best he could. I was just in time to spot him finishing the job.

The doormat was a write-off, but I had to give Klinsmann full marks for effort.

Starting to sense a redeeming quality there. You know there may be a janitorial position opening up, if he's interested. As long as he agrees to stay out of the Cat-Free Zone.

I used to have a cat that peed down drains... weird but sanitary, I spose. As long as it wasn't a gutter.
