The Ode to CryptoCeps:

Bouncer: "No, I'm sorry. This is a restricted area..." *checks around in
case there's a problem*

Me: " 'cep I got this..." *hands over teensie tiny tasty little mushoom*

Note to self: 'did I eat one of those???' *can't seem to recall the
particular moment. Oh@*

Community: *looking sideways at each other* "What the hell is a mushoom?"


Thank You! so much.
