RE: After writing down all

Quote:
After writing down all of Mike's words and logically eliminating all the wrong letters according to Annie's clues, I found myself left with nine letters right and only two unaccounted letters and places to put them. Phonetically, they only work one way. However, I think I will climb into my hole home and take a nap (or at least lunch) before I claim victory.

You might want to live in it for a bit. Your hole home (not your lunch) - just in case Mike starts hurling paper squares at you :)

*turn on some soothing... whale music... yes... why not... it might help... and nail all furniture to the floor*

Please wait here. Further instructions could pile up at any time. Thank you.

Yes, I've noticed over the years that when men try that, women tend to respond that way ....

Christopher behave yourself .....

Oh the heck with it. If he wants to sleep at 1:45 am (+- an hour), that's his problem.

David's definition is closer

David's definition is closer to the one I had in mind :) I wonder what damage will be wrought to our brain cells now...

:)

edit: oh yeah... forgot to say congratulations. Congratulations, David! Your turn.

One hesitates with tremulous preponderance upon such an eventuality, but I finks that at least one went that way ------>

Epic Fails, yes.

SSSssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ..... the sound of Mike's ego/hopeful cortex deflating.

Quote:
And then everything just got plain nasty when you mentioned BT and their loitercables *glare*


Well. That was deliberate on my part. You must have had counselling or something since I last mentioned Voldemort. Today you have returned with quite a lucid mindset at the mention. Well done to you and/or your psychological team.

Surely you must agree that LoiterCables was too good to let roll on by. Think of them like the reverse of optic fibre. Optic fibre was invented to speed up communications. As this did not sit well at all with a certain UK provider then the tenders went out and what we have today is the fruit of such obversity research. LoiterCables are fully certified to go as slow as possible without the light particles quite falling off their bicycles and going to sleep right then and there. The future beckons! Dopey photons rule! :-0

The Paper Squares are still out of the drawer and so onwards with :

HINDOOPSTIPSE

.... which on the face of it has an inebriated giraffe zeitgeist.

Cheers, Mike.

I have made this letter longer than usual because I lack the time to make it shorter ...
