Damn you Hugh Janus! If we hadn't wasted time trying to help you we might have been prepared!

Man the starboard... er... Misson the lines... Oh, I know! Shoot the pirates with cannons! That'll teach 'em!

What's the word I'm looking for here? It's right on the tip of my tongue.

Perhaps an anagramatical response to/of your query might help:

Hereto, eel hump!

Eh... Eh... petroleum!

Ether. Mule. Hope.

dano, the word you're thinking of is papillae. Funny how often that comes up.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Hee...crustacean corsets! Very sexy.

I thought it was a chastity belt when I first saw it.

posted by iconomy 19 September | 10:50

Nah...it's too look spiffy and find anything other than chastity.

posted by peacay 19 September | 10:52

Peacay, that is very, um, special.

Hereto, eel hump!

You came this close and couldn't make it to "hetero eel hump"?

posted by kenko 19 September | 12:58

That just about does it, then. Thanks for all the help, people. Great job.

Decorator crabs.

Those are so cool, mudpuppie. I've seen video of them before, perhaps on the David Attenborough ocean documentary series.

Sometimes I see people riding the subway who I could only describe as "decorator people," clipped, pinned, and covered with what is clearly a careful selection from the ocean floor (or subway platform, as the case may be).

kenko: :)

Here's a nebulous crabby for yer. Arr.

Hey! What's wrong with a lot of DECORATION?
