Re: 2019/06/28 - Then What Was All That With Grape Eleven Ye
The title and alt-text are just wonderful! Now, I wonder when Kix’s mate will call? Well, that is a good question! When will Kitsune come a-knocking? Hey, it's a free room, humor her ... we all have to learn to deal with changes, right, kid? Ch-ch-ch-changeeees. We all face strange ch-ch-changeeees.

Given that we started talking about The Sword in the Stone because of the alt-text, I'd say it MAY have been intentional.
