"As they passed the rows of houses they saw through the open doors that men were sweeping and dusting and washing dishes, while the women sat around in groups, gossiping and laughing.
"What has happened?" the Scarecrow asked a sad-looking man with a bushy beard, who wore an apron and was wheeling a baby-carriage along the sidewalk.
"Why, we've had a revolution, your Majesty -- as you ought to know very well," replied the man; "and since you went away the women have been running things to suit themselves. I'm glad you have decided to come back and restore order, for doing housework and minding the children is wearing out the strength of every man in the Emerald City."
"Hm!" said the Scarecrow, thoughtfully. "If it is such hard work as you say, how did the women manage it so easily?"
"I really do not know," replied the man, with a deep sigh. "Perhaps the women are made of cast-iron.""

A few more I must mention:
- Waking Sleep Paralysis, caused by D's (in Blo's case. Not in Bird's. Bird is in league)
- Sha's record-setting post-12am Moot participation
- Sneaking into the communion services of other traditions and pretending to be one of them. There were some guilty parties at this gathering.
- Trans versus Con
- "Are you smarter than your pastor?" (Note: I'm not)
- The future of the totally secure Bloo versus the future of the totally hacked Blo
He's made comments about me from the pulpit. I help in the booth we control the sound and video. How smart is that?
I have more street smarts.
(It's all in fun between us. ;-}
