Thanks, now lets try and not keep this forum about me, i do like the attention though  Is it fixed yet, because the forum was so severely stuffed last night it was ridiculous.
And i was thinking stand not fall, which fits into both fine, just not sure if a dagger stand is a common term.
P.S. Yay its working now!

Ok what is going on? My response to this post is gone.. instead I have a post that says "Three Hands" ... omg the forum is haunted ..  |

Yeah, that happened shortly before I posted my response - the first time I tried to post. No idea how it my efforts resulted in that, though...
Still, I believe either of my efforts fit (to a certain extent), just maybe not what you were looking for...

If we admit names of songs, etc. then anything goes. Such as Blue Harvest.
What is a Christmas mouse?
And obviously spamanq's post ought to be deleted.
Edit: But evidently not by Icarus, whom I just saw lurking!

I think this thread may still be a bit ... off. For instance I'm now seeing a page 13 with no posts. I would guess that the deleting of the above-mentioned spam post had some sort of unintended side effect on mikedagr8's post, caused by this thread being out-of-whack. But that's just a guess.

You might be right.
Perhaps we should retire this thread and start a new one if people want to continue.

Maybe your browser doesn't pass the referrer header, in which case they wouldn't know you requested the image for another page from a different server..

I see the images, but the thread is still stuffed with a 13th page but no actual posts. Remake thread?
P.S. left ( ) skirt is still unsolved.
