Toby:
Apology accepted. Cranberries cautioned. All is well.

I wonder if bathing in cranberry juice is good for the complexion, or whether the acidity would just pickle the bather? Volunteers to investigate? Jimmy? ;)

Also #87, have you ever considered that a cranberry juice addiction is merely vegetarian vampirism? Do you get a thrill out of sinking your teeth into defenseless vegetables, hmm?


#87:
suck on that, lethargy.
bonus points for the meta?gumby reference. to everyone else; I'm really, really sorry. a man without cranberry juice is a desparate man. better than one within though, I suppose.

holy moly martha, i blew his xxxxxxg brains out!


Toby:
Non. Il ne nous a pas vus.
Nein. Er sah uns nicht.

spectacles required.

Sorry, but I couldn't resist testing the Blogger spell checker...

thaws frill's, and the slit doves
Did gyro and gamble in the wave;
All mimosa were the forgives,
And the mom rat's outgrip.

(not quite Lewis Carroll)


Toby:
Indeed, very interesting. I never paid much attention to the Smurfs myself as a child - probably due to the action cartoon followings that were huge around then (Thundercats or Transformers, anyone?), though the Marxist interpretation makes sense.

On the other hand, I doubt even Mr. Tarantino could have turned The Smurfs into an action thriller - let alone getting Uma Thurman to play Smurfette. Might be funny to spoof, though. Anyone got any Smurf costumes and a copy of "Kung Fu for Dummies" hanging around?

Snarf, snarf, snaaarrrf...


ficlogic:
A feminist Smurfette?

Toby:
'Twould have been far more impressive if you'd managed to pick up the cast of Kill Bill part II - even more so if they'd been light blue...



Hunter:
Well as you all seem to be talking about tumbleweeds and people that look like tumbleweeds. I'm going to try and break the mould.

Shopping yesturday 'outside' produce some amazing results. I picked up Kill Bill v2 and a http://www.oneposter.com/UserData/Poster/Poster_12846.jpg in light blue.

Hope this brings something to talk about

cheesey:


I shouldn't worry. I fail to understand many things. Witness.


jimmy:


I've not understood something. I'm sure.


cheesey:
?

Toby:
Hmm... Methinks I just accidentally constructed, then consumed a 2-3 person Balti, complete with Chernobyl rice single handed.

I may live to regret this :|

(I would use saffron rather than turmeric on the rice, but it costs the earth. Besides, day-glow rice is fun)

Mossy:
Emma: Nah. Well, just the lighter stuff, like, erm, Strange Hours. :P

Erm, well, if anyone fancies dissecting this CD, i'd be happy to send it to you :)

cheesey:
Hmmmmm.... "It's just breath control" playing out as parents browse through the tie racks :D.

"I cast a level 8 Aural Attack on Guardians Of The Unwashed Ones!"

I can't imagine they'd appreciate Recoil, but I think the number of Warbeckers booking a seat in the audience for this event is growing by the minute.

BTW, have you got the serial or model no. of the apparatus used to play this twisted format? There may be details of the format online somewhere. Failing that, you could always accost Rob or myself with a copy of the data and a hex editor.

ficlogic:
The concept of playing Liquid at parents doing the uniform purchasing run fills me with a combination of amusement and sadistic fascination...

You aren't going to play Liquid at them, are you?


Mossy:
An entirely shot-in-the-dark query...

Does anyone know anything about the background music system they use in shops, etc?
I borrowed a CD from the place i work hoping to reverse-engineer it, but found that all the (4 hours of) music was contained in a big .BIN file. It's not an ISO image and WinRAR doesn't recognise it as an archive, but i'm pretty sure it is one because it says it can only compress it to 95% of its size.

The rest of the disc was metadata (which contained directory and file names) and image files...

Any ideas at all? It's just that i intend ultimately to produce my own CD, because "Chart Attack" vol.729 is starting to grate a bit now :P
A bit of Recoil will get parents in the mood for buying school uniforms. Oh yes.

Once again, silence in the graveyard of Warbeck.

Rather than make another one of my slightly satirical, overly poetic "somebody please post" posts, I'll attempt to provide a subject for further comment.

I just had a phone conversation with MicroLink tech support, shortly before they delivered my fixed lappy. Now, is it just me, or is phoning a customer up and asking for the password for their lappy over the phone just a little bit dumb? Thankfully they didn't persist, though it does make you wonder just how many fools/customers would be willing to.

Mind you, they did fix the hardware, so I can't complain that much.
