Absolutely falling on the floor laughing... I used to have an EMail address and an AIM name of "WantonSoup" - one of these days I'm going to die trying to crawl my way out from underneath a pile of overripe tomatoes, I tell you, but if Nyperold hasn't gone yet I guess I'm still safe ;-) - but everyone thought I was just referring to the Chinese soup. Bah! I'm not telling which meaning I intended....
