Quite the reverse. If we catch you expressing yourself lucidly then you will be electronically flogged, digitally flayed, quartered up into separate hard drive partitions, and then algorithmically banned to be sure.

Cheers, Mike.

RE: Since I am finally

Quote:

Since I am finally back to work, after my doctor induced medical sojourn, I will tend to disappear for hours, sometimes days, at a time. Railroading is not conducive to any kind of regular schedule, so please use my time away to make fun of me behind my back. For ideas, please see Tbret, he'll give you some ammunition to lob my way.

Phil

OK der Casey Jones .... got it )

Tum-te-tum... hello everyone

Tum-te-tum... hello everyone :) Don't mind me...

*scroll down page looking for tbret* :) Let me see now... "s-e-n-d message" that's the one!

*click with...
a little flourish* Yes, why not!? :)UH!HellohowAREyou. Oh... it's you Mike :) Shame about Phil :/

Glad he's better though :)

Flinging food at the family.
You do know that feeding them makes them come back for more later, right? If that makes them get bigger - feeding is the commonest cause of growth - then the amount per serve goes up. So next time there is more flinging to be done. You are making a rod for your own back.

I know Mike *growl* I know. And to have any hope of getting it on MY guys plates, I have to fling it at the family next door, then watch several servings walk off down the road. Did you know there are birdwatchers around here who think shepherd-pie-dispensing pigeons are real?

Bill I can get the name of a 'doctor' that for 100 dollars will give you a note for ANYTHING....just don't tell anyone I know him!

No hints today, that I could grasp, so I am still here just hanging out.

Hi Gnu, long time no see! Glad you came back!!!

*puff* *trundle* *puff* ....

*puff* *trundle* *puff* .... *WEDGE* @#??!& OoofAAAAARRRGHoof... *trundle-trundle* There! That's better :) *cast reassuring smile around WHOLE thread* Hello everyone :) Nothing like an armchair for "doing science" is there? :)

Now. I've been thinking... *knit eyebrows together in centre of face* AND *incorporate shoe laces of fleeing einsteinians* There IS more! *glare* Dangle, stand, sit, I don't mind how you stay but you will stay... Good grief! This power thing's brilliant :)

Okay. Having read through the liberally daubed clues permeating this LPTPPPTWPTW thread thingy, I admit... it does look like as if a jigsaw puzzle met it's demise. Possibly by means of several large explosions simultaneously detonated both under on top and from within.

That's why I'm here :) To help where I can, and to introduce you to: anniet's "dross or not" and her PIES (Percentage of Irrelevancy Estimation System) section of the game.

Here's an example for you. Let's take Captain Pugwash. As he stands there on his ship, he is pure dross. Yes... I'm afraid so people... yet here in this thread - manifesting as he has - he is Einstein :) Therefore, to help clarify things for you, I have calculated the dross or not rating... and here it is!

Analysis of term/phrase: Captain Pugwash ---> term/phrase ---> 50% dross

Please note: This does NOT mean Einstein is half a pile of utter garbage. It means half of what you're reading is :)

Archive references that might help: (AKA the: He Said/She Said Then Anniet Said You Said section or: HSSSTASYSS) is as follows:

Anniet said...

Following hotly on the heels of your sigh... and possibly unbeknownst to you, you have made an inspired observation... one Captain Pugwash would have been very proud to see :)

What Phil said (after his sigh) was...

Quote:
there's hope for the world.

No PIES yet I'm afraid... but you might want to consider what happens when we eat too many of them throughout our lives...

Before I leave you all in peace/pieces - HOMEWORK :) YAY!

Today's homework is to throw me some alternatives for this term...

Quote:
end of days


...so that it can then be sent for dross or not analysis. How does that sound? Deal? :)

@ Phil and Mikey :)

heh heh heh heh :)))) Nice to see you!
