Ooh, like my Very Clever Cousin (of DOOM)! I know how old you are now. -- Um. I suppose I could've figured out how old you are earlier, but this is a more poetic way of doin' it.

I'm a Tiger. I always feel vaguely sorry for anybody who ain't. *smug*

Haven't I, you know, mentioned straight out how old I was before?

And now I know how old you are, too! I think.

(I am also 4 days older than barbarian_qulan. Obviously this makes me wiser and more mature than she.)

(But that also makes her the one who gets to make all the "you want some new fake teeth? you sure you ought to be doing that your age?" jokes.)

Oh, that is true. Sneaky Mel!
