[ShoutGrace]

Why wouldn't I take along a gaggle of geese to distract the armed guards and a can of cheeze whiz to muffle the yells of the receptionist? :D

Also, wouldn't a lock picking device be handy?

[Madhuri]

:lol: that's a good plan :thumbs_up

Do I get to be a part of this plan? What will be my role?

Wait a minute....Why do you want to rob a jewelery store?

[ShoutGrace]

Do I get to be a part of this plan? What will be my role?

Would you mind being the gorgeous female on the sidewalk out front, doing belly dances to distract the pedestrians away from all the chaos inside the store? :D


Wait a minute....Why do you want to rob a jewelery store?

Is it too cliche to say that I heard that girls like pearls, and, well, you know . . . . ?

[Madhuri]

Was not my role to wear those pearls?

Will it be rude if I say I QUIT, because the pearls are not for me? Why do you think I would want to be a part of the plan in the first place? :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[ShoutGrace]

How do you know the pearls are not for you? Are you not jumping to conclusions?

Don't you care enough about me to help me in this illegal enterprise?

[Madhuri]

If I say I am very selfish and care about me and my pearls ONLY? Why would I care about anything except the beautiful pearls? :rolleyes:

[ShoutGrace]

Why should I risk my life and freedom getting pearls for a person who doesn't even care for me?

[Madhuri]

Ah, so thats what it is. Do you think I cant rob a jewelery store on my own? :rolleyes:

[ShoutGrace]

Did I ever say that? Are you saying you want to be the person inside the store, wielding a can of cheeze whiz?

[kathycf]

But isn't stealing wrong?
Could we not apply for a wholesale license and simply buy the pearls at cost?

[kathycf]

Wait...Cheez Whiz? Why for Cheez Whiz? :lol:

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't Cheeze Whiz the best possible muffling agent? Can a jewelry store receptionist call for help when she has a mouth full of Cheeze Whiz? :D

[Shalot]

Why does the jewelry store receptionist have to be a she? Do you assume that men are superior to women? Do you assume that only a woman would take a piddly little receptionist job in a jewelry store? And do you asusme that only women wear jewelry?

[ShoutGrace]

Why does the jewelry store receptionist have to be a she? Do you assume that men are superior to women? Do you assume that only a woman would take a piddly little receptionist job in a jewelry store? And do you asusme that only women wear jewelry?

Is it not you is assuming many things about me?

Does this jewelry store even exist? Isn’t it rather a possible world that I have created merely for the purpose of providing an alternative avenue for those who wish to procure pearls? Or those who are morally opposed to the uncomfortably disingenuous designation “pearl diver”?

[kathycf]

Is there not an old saying that says something along the lines of:
'"when you assume, you make an a#s out of you and me" (U and ME)? :)
By the way, isn't forcing Cheez Whiz on an individual regardless of their sex simply too cruel? :D

[Madhuri]

Is cheez Whiz of no other use? Cant we use something else to muffle her yells? Why dont we use chloroform? Are we going to take only pearls from the store? What about diamonds?

[Pendragon]

Robbery? Cheese Whiz? Turn your back a second and next you know people think they are Bonnie and Clyde-- what is going on here? http://www.invision.smileyville.net/smilies/doh (16).gif


http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~kpt/terraquest/va/science/penguins/0513.32.gif

So ya in da market for pearls, eh? And ya got no divers, right? Shaddup. We might make a little deal heah, capisce? Kinda you scratch my back and vice versa, get me? We deliver da pearls, ya pay us say, two-thoirds of what ya pay da store, yeah? No law involved, no chance of anyone going to da big house, you happy, and we get da cash, so we happy, capisce? Deal?

[Madhuri]

Why would we want to make any deal?? We have already stolen the pearls and now we are planning for diamonds...:D singing: *Diamonds are a girls best friend*

[Pendragon]

http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~kpt/terraquest/va/science/penguins/0513.32.gif

Yeah? Is dat a fact? An' now youse after de ice, eh? Nervy, ain'tcha, sweetheart? OK, we can play da game your way if ya want, eh? How youse plannin' on shutting my cakehole so's I don't go to da man an' rat you out? Yeah, dat's right, I can sing like an little birdy an' bring da coppers down on your whole operation, capisce? In dis town, babe, I own half de cops, and de utter half is scared stiff they might get fitted fer the concrete shoes, get it? You play dice wit me or you go on ice wit da boys in blue, capisce?

[Madhuri]

Are you trying to threaten us with your false connections? :lol: It isnt working, call the cops if you want, no, no deal. :D

[Pendragon]

http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~kpt/terraquest/va/science/penguins/0513.32.gif


Yeah, whatever, shaddup already sister, the regret will be yours, see? Dose sirens ya hear? That ain't th' Beach Boys tunnin' up for a concert, sweetheart--heh-heh. Don't say I didn't warn ya, OK?

[kathycf]

Has Pen morphed back in time (and space, maybe matter as well....) and become a gangster from a 1940's film noir picture? Can I be one too? Does this not entail wearing a pinstriped suit and sneering alot? :D

[Madhuri]

Why does he want to ruin the plan??

[RobinHood3000]

Why?? :bawling:

[Madhuri]

Why such a small question???

[Pendragon]

You know that I grieve with you, little bro, now become The Dark Knight, never forget that, hear me? http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/traurig/a080.gif

[RobinHood3000]

Forever crusade, never surrender, my brother?

[Pendragon]

Never give up, never give in, always our code, our oath, we don't break so easily, but we hurt a lot sometimes, no?

[RobinHood3000]

Ain't it the truth?

Perhaps when the hardship is past and we who love her so have found our broad, sunlit uplands, those who knew us may still say, "This was their finest hour"?

[Madhuri]

Cant we do something to overcome this sadness??

[tiny explorer]

will mashed potatoes do something here?!:p

[Madhuri]

Are they anti-depressants??????

[OZEED]

you don't seem to ever need them, do you?

[Madhuri]

Will I ever eat potatoes, if I am calorie conscious???

[Eufrosyne]

Have you been watching too much you are what you eat or dr phil's let's-loose-some-weight-here-folks-show?

[kathycf]

Don't potatoes get a bad rap?

[AimusSage]

Isn't everyone better of with turnips instead of potatoes?

[smallik]

are u really sure about turnips????

[Pendragon]

Do you think if I slip back in, people will notice? :)

[AimusSage]

How can people not notice?

[Pendragon]

Well, dragons can turn invisible, walk through dimensional barriers, you know?

[AimusSage]

Don't you think you're more fun being around when people can see you?

[kathycf]

May I agree both about the wonderful dragon and also the huge benefits of turnips?

[Madhuri]

Isnt the combination of dragons and turnips :eek:, a little strange??

[kathycf]

Strange? Would not a world without turnips and dragons be even stranger???? :D

[AimusSage]

Does that make us strangers in a strange world?

[kathycf]

As a fellow turniper, do you really need to ask? :brow:

[RobinHood3000]

Is "turniping" a euphemism? :blush:

[Pendragon]

The question there, Robin, would be "for what"? :blush:

[AimusSage]

Does it in any way revolve around lust or love?

Muhahahahahaha! :D (that's evil laughter, for those of you who were oblivious to that fact ) :p

[kathycf]

turnipy lust? Don't you know I look upon turnips, and all vegetables with purely platonic feelings in my heart?

[RobinHood3000]

That's fine for the vegetables -- what about us guys? :brow:

[Madhuri]

How will I know, if the guys dont know themselves? :rolleyes:

[AimusSage]

Who told you guys don't know?

[Madhuri]

Why dont you ask the one who told me this? ;)

[AimusSage]

Would you believe me if I told you I don't care to know?

[Madhuri]

Why did you ask me then, if you were not curious?? :rolleyes:

[AimusSage]

Is it possible I was asking because I didn't know what else to do?

[Madhuri]

Why dont you do semething for your gang, in a different thread?? Dont you think they need support, so that, it is not taken over by the superior species? ;)

[AimusSage]

I'm in a gang now?

[Madhuri]

Are you not?? what is it called -- Musculum Homeum or League of Fine Gentlemen :rolleyes: (gosh, what names you guys keep)?? Is this not the gang you belong to??

[AimusSage]

I never joined, now did I? Don't you know I'm my own gang?

[Madhuri]

oh, really?? what do you specialise in?? or are you saying you are a defaulter, as you are a member of that gang by default? ;)

[Pendragon]

(Extremely stuffy British accent) Oh, so you have the unmitigated gall to call our fine organization, the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen so low a vulgar appellative as a gang? I suppose that-that-coffee hovel you have over in that run down disheveled shop front is considered superior, because it has "a woman's touch?" Really, dear child, I would have thought that your parents would absolutely cringe to know how audacious you are to thus slander a group of Gentlemen don't you know? How preposterous can one get? http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/figuren/e015.gif

[Madhuri]

Why does truth always hurt?? ;) :D (I mean what I said was a reality -- yeah a gang :lol:)

[kathycf]

If the truth always hurts, why does it make me feel great when people tell me how wonderful I am? Is that not the truth then? :lol: :p ;)

[Bookworm89]

Does it sound like the truth?

[Pendragon]

As Jesus said to Pilate, "What is truth?"

[miss tenderness]

is truth a truth?!

[Bookworm89]

If truth is not a truth, what is a truth?

[AimusSage]

Isn't the truth the biggest lie in history?

[tainaprincess]

But isn't history a contradiction of herstory? :D

[kathycf]

Isn't history written by the victor? Just who was this Victor and why did he get to write everything? :p

[Madhuri]

What about the ones who have lost? Will they not be a part of the history?

[kathycf]

What about the people who have tied, since they have neither won nor lost?

[Madhuri]

Cant we re-write history, so that everybody gets a second chance?

[Bookworm89]

You can write?!

[Madhuri]

Which historical character will be your preference???

[Pendragon]

Rewriting history to make things change, eh? Now it becomes clear why my short story The Assassination of Abraham Lincoln garnered only one vote in that competition, people just don't get it that time cannot be changed, huh? http://www.websmileys.com/sm/sad/861.gif

[Bookworm89]

You don't try?

[Madhuri]

Will we get a time machine, so that we can relive the history, and perhaps change it too??

[Pendragon]

Try, friend Bookworm? I've tried, aye, my whole life, would that we came equipped with rewind and erase buttons, they would come in handy sometimes, wouldn't they? But ‘tis chasing a moonbeam though the cobwebs of a dream: no substance, know what I mean?

[Madhuri]

Why has this thread become a history now?? ;) Cant we revive it?

[ShoutGrace]

Do you have a plan concerning how to do that?

[Madhuri]

Why dont we begin with posting questions? -- It seems a good plan to me..very well thought out, isnt it?? :D

[ShoutGrace]

If it was you who was thinking, then it must be well thought out, right? Haven't I found all of your posts appreciable? :D

[Madhuri]

I always think right :nod: I can never go wrong :D

Who could have thought of a better plan than me?? :rolleyes: :D :lol:

[ShoutGrace]

It seems to be working out well, doesn't it? :)


Did you eat your daily turnip today, Madhuri?

[Madhuri]

It has worked..:nod:

Why would I want to have a dose of turnip? :sick:

[ShoutGrace]

Don't turnips give you special powers? Like the ability to post on the LitNet for hours? :D

[Madhuri]

Ya I am always on litnet...from morning till night..:nod:

It shows I have nothing else to do, doesnt it??

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't it possible that you just have a secret diet which features turnips?

[Madhuri]

Why do turnips have to feature in every conversation? What is so great about having turnips? :rolleyes:

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't it less the having of the turnips so much as the eating of them?

Why, is there anything at all that you can think of as being tastier than turnips?? :confused:

[miss tenderness]

lol

guess this is the answer,shout! isn't Maddie?

[Madhuri]

Yes Miss T, you are absolutely right..

Shout, anything other than turnip will be tastier. What about a creamy chocolate cake?? Yummmmmmmmyyyyyyyy :banana:

[ShoutGrace]

guess this is the answer,shout! isn't Maddie?

:eek: :eek: :eek:

That could be construed as naughty, Miss T. :D


How do you know such things? Or is it a guess on your part? :D



What about a creamy chocolate cake??

Where are we eating it?

[Madhuri]

How about the Best Bakery?? :) Ofcourse we'll have to stand, hold the cake in our hands, and there will be no plates or spoons....he he he...this arrangement will work for you, wont it?? They make the best cakes...:D

[ShoutGrace]

Wouldn't any arrangement work if you are there?

Won't cake make your next run more difficult? :eek:

[Madhuri]

Will it work?? It works for me :nod: I was jus' making sure you are comfortable in this arrangement...:D

And why would I want to run?? :confused:

[ShoutGrace]

Wouldn't you want to counteract the damaging side effects that the cake has on your health?

[Madhuri]

:lol: *rolling with laughter*

What makes you think so?? :lol:

[ShoutGrace]

:D

Surely you know that I am aware of how healthy you are, drinking water, etc? ;)

Don't you know that sugar is evil? You know what doesn't have sugar?

[Madhuri]

I know, I know....:rolleyes:

I dont know what doesnt has sugar. Will you be kind enough to enlighten me? :D

Wait a minute.......Why isnt the topic changing?? Why are we talking about me? :brow:

[ShoutGrace]

Aren't you far more interesting?! :D

[kathycf]

:D
Don't you know that sugar is evil? You know what doesn't have sugar?

Are you implying turnips? Don't you think that will annoy poor Madhuri?

Hi Shouty, how are you? Can you forgive me for taking liberties with your user name? :p

[ShoutGrace]

Don't you know I would let you get away with most anything? ;)

Where has the time gone, Kathy? Where have you gone? Whatever happened to the days of sunny, carefree Games forum posting?

Isn't Madhuri's unnatural aversion to turnips interesting? Is it perhaps indicative of an underlying condition? :eek:

[Madhuri]

What if you were the one who was gone, and she was always there? Why do you have to blame others for your mistake? :rolleyes: :p Its just not right...

[miss tenderness]

why does Shout love talking about Turnip?

[kathycf]

Perhaps ShoutGrace needs a membership in the litnet turniper club? Aimus is the president, did you all know that?

David, I haven't been on as much because I haven't been feeling very well....although I think I can be on more? I know that isn't really a question, but may I be allowed to just slap a question mark on the end of a sentence every once in a while?

Did you know one of my worst habits as a writer is (*gasp*) run on sentences?

[ShoutGrace]

Wasn't I talking about me as much as you, Kathy? :D

By the way, question marks are fine on the end of normal sentences? ;)

Aren't run on sentences called "stream of consciousness" sentences by modern writers?

[kathycf]

Are you saying that you and I and Aimus all share a love of all that is turnipey? :P
Stream of consciousness, eh? Sounds much better than "run on sentence"...?

Ooh, I like just making a normal sentence and making it a question, isn't punctuation great?

[Madhuri]

Shout, you do not take any of what I said about your not being here, seriously, do you? :D

[kathycf]

Does ShoutGrace take any question posed in this thread seriously? :p
Do I have any right to make a statement like that? Probably not, huh?

[RobinHood3000]

Why use the "question" modifier? Aren't they all questions?

[ShoutGrace]

Madhuri, don't I always interpret what you say in a way that best befits me? :D You don't take me seriously, do you? :eek:

Kathy, do I really need to say, "No?" ;)


Why use the "question" modifier? Aren't they all questions?


Well isn't that statement theoretically impeccable? Haven't there been some statements inappropriately stated here in this thread, though?

[Pendragon]

Why do I always feel that somehow I didn't get the memo? :lol:

[Madhuri]

What do we need a memo for??

[Pendragon]

Well, it would help me stay on the current topic, wouldn't it? :idea:

[Madhuri]

Will you agree if I say all topics invariably talk about turnips? :rolleyes: Its a default topic...:rolleyes: Do you still need a memo?

[Pendragon]

It does seem to be a reoccurring topic at that, doesn't it? Did Aimus manage to mass-hypnotize all of us or what? :lol:

[Madhuri]

I wonder what else will he make us do? *shudders* As of now, its turnips, turnips everywhere...:rolleyes:

[kathycf]

Am I sensing an anti-turnip tone here? :bawling: :p

Well, if turnips are out, what shall we discuss?

[OZEED]

Is Winnie the Pooh male or Female?:lol: :D

[kathycf]

Are you implying that Winnie is androgynous? Isn't just about every character in those stories male? What I really wish to know is what is up with Tigger the tiger? Is he hyper or what?

[Pendragon]

http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~kpt/terraquest/va/science/penguins/0513.32.gif

Pst! Hey, come heah a minute! Youse want de low down on dat Tigger mug, doncha? Well, don noise dis around, see, but de guy's addicted to some kinda nose candy or sumpin, capisce? Makes him jumpy as a frog in a hot water heater, get me? Youse didn't heah dis from me, if fact, youse ain't seen me today, dat way da Tiger can't finger me fer ratting him out, capisce? I tink he steals Elroy's depression medication, dat's why de donkey allus down in de dumps, see? Gotta go, youse didn't see anyting, right? ;)

[kathycf]

Aren't I now to scared to see anything as well as even remember my own name? Have I been scared witless?

[Pendragon]

Well, you did ask about Tigger, didn't you? The Godfeather knows all about underhanded deals, so he gave you the info, but no threats, he just is jumpy about being seen, you know? Being wanted by the law, even if you know they can't prove anything isn't going to make you want to take a walk on the Boardwalk in broad daylight, surely you can understand the penguin's position?

[Nightshade]

what position? dont we belive they are evil?

[kathycf]

Do penguins recline?

[AimusSage]

Do turnips taste good?

[kathycf]

To me, yes, but what how do you think the penguins feel?

[AimusSage]

Don't they consume large quantities of turnips during their annual meet and greet with the head honchos of the Martian consortiom know as Martian Knives INC?

[kathycf]

But don't penguins and pie go better together?

[AimusSage]

What do you think they eat on the other days of the year?

[kathycf]

Maybe fish and turnips?

[Madhuri]

If all litnet members eat turnips, wont there be a shortage for the rest of the world? Who will think about them?

[Laindessiel]

Who doesn't eat turnips? And can farmers just plant and harvest them in time before anyone can crave for it?

[kathycf]

Turnips are great, but let us not forget the healthful benefits of turnip greens (http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=144), eh?

Did you know the greens can be eaten raw in salads or steamed?

[Shalot]

did you know that there is a song about a woman who wears a perfume that smells like turnip greens?

[Pendragon]

Maybe I could write one? I would have been here earlier, but did you know the mess the internet was in this morning? Someone toss a turnip in the works again? :flare:

[kathycf]

Can't we all blame Aimus for that now that his birthday is over?

[toni]

Maybe he is still in his bed nursing a hangover? And can someone explain to me what's the big fuss about turnips and this forum ?

[Pendragon]

A quickie, just dashed it off. OK?

Why Does Your Perfume Smell So Much Like Turnip Greens?

You know, baby, I've missed you so much, since you left the big city.
Took off for a trip to the country, yeah, come back lookin' so darn pretty.
Now you got a gleam in your eyes, like I've never seen,
Oh yeah, but tell me this, darling,
Just why does your perfume smell so much like turnip greens?

I'm not complaining at all, about your new hairstyle or your complexion.
And it's OK with me, baby, if you've found life take another direction.
And Lord knows I won't say a word about that check shirt or those jeans:
But can you just tell me again,
Why does your perfume smell so much like turnip greens?

Down on the farm, yeah, I can live with that!
Drive the tractor, slop the hogs! Where's my cowboy hat?
We can make quite a pair out there, on the country scene:
But Lord have mercy, girl,
Just why does your perfume smell so much like turnip greens?
Reckon I better get used to the smell of turnip greens!

[Laindessiel]

Well if you like the smell of turnip greens, Uncle Pen, would I have your permission to wear it? And why do I have such great poet as my Uncle? ;)

[kathycf]

Do you know I laughed out loud at that great poem?
Do you think it could be set to music?

[AimusSage]

Does everyone agree that this has the potential to be one of the best country songs ever? :D

[kathycf]

Do you think you would get any argument from me?

[Pendragon]

Do you guys know I've already played and sang the song, using one of my guitars? Almost any of my poems can be set to music, if I put enough effort into it, but one that I write as a song certainly can be-- why can't I write music? Do you know I can't even read it? I play everything by ear. http://www.websmileys.com/sm/music/musik04.gif

[kathycf]

All by ear? That is cool, eh? I used to be in the school band, care to guess what instrument I played?

[Laindessiel]

The drums, maybe? Or probably a harp? *sarcastic* And when will I be able to play the drums? Although I play the flute, I'm not sure it's enough, what do you think?

[Pendragon]

Tuba? Did you have a "tuba top"? ;) :lol:

[Madhuri]

Will you guys invite me to listen to your songs and music, coz I can play nothing, and I promise i'll not fall asleep..... ;) :D

[kathycf]

Shall I teach you all I know of the clarinet? Do you think that will be much even though I played from age 10 to 12 1/2? :p

[Pendragon]

You do know it is said that one never really forgets music, one only forgets to practice? http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/musik/music-smiley-013.gifhttp://www.lucky-seven.com/h3258.jpg

[kathycf]

Is Pen having a good birthday? :)

(would you believe I still have my old clarinet?)

[Madhuri]

Can it be considered antique?? :p :D

[Pendragon]

Can I answer in the affirmative? :) :D :D :D :) ! Did you try playing my song on your clarinet? :lol:

[kathycf]

Yes, I did and did you know the police came to tell me to stop it?

Can it be considered antique?? :p :D
Is miss Maddie saying I'm old? :p

[Madhuri]

Will you be happy if I say a young person can have an antique item?? :D

[toni]

Whatever do you mean, dear Maddie? :confused:

[kathycf]

Well, if one defines the word "antique" in this context as meaning an object that is valued because of craftmanship typical of an earlier time...AND also implying that people of all ages could enjoy such an object (which I think is true) than I think you have an idea of what Maddie means, eh? Of course I could be completely off the mark, and in that case what would you suggest? :)

[toni]

I don't have any idea of what you said at all, dear kathycf..:):):):)Maybe, we should ask Maddie. Do you think she's still online?:)

[AimusSage]

Is the rumour true? Did the intergalactic flying genie with an attitiude finally find his lamp?

[toni]

I don't get Genies at all.. They grant you your 3 wishes and then when they get trapped to their lamps, why can't they wish themselves out for freedom?

[AimusSage]

I don't get Genies at all.. They grant you your 3 wishes and then when they get trapped to their lamps, why can't they wish themselves out for freedom?
Don't you know that this is a clause in their contract?

[toni]

No. But I had a strong feeling something was wrong... Just too lazy to correct. 2.15am here, you know.. Wanna sleep but I wanna stay here at the same time.. Don't we all wanna stay here?:)

[Pendragon]

Aimus, do you think the Genies will take up that contract clause at the next meeting of the Union of Mythical and Magical Beings? We Dragons are asking for more acceptance in society and enough with the “Let’s sacrifice a maiden to the Dragon!” crap; it burns us up; you know what I mean? You aliens asking for anything specific? :p

[AimusSage]

Aimus, do you think the Genies will take up that contract clause at the next meeting of the Union of Mythical and Magical Beings? We Dragons are asking for more acceptance in society and enough with the “Let’s sacrifice a maiden to the Dragon!” crap; it burns us up; you know what I mean? You aliens asking for anything specific? :p
I rather like the sacrifice the maiden clause. How do I get that into my contract? :D

[kathycf]

Don't you think that is rather unfair to the maidens?

[AimusSage]

Not really no, why would it be unfair?

[kathycf]

Maybe it is unfair because most maidens don't want to be sacrificed? Of course this is an assumption on my part, but don't most living things have a desire to be alive? :lol:

[AimusSage]

Did it ever occur to you the sacrifice might not involve dying? :p

[kathycf]

Hmmm, that seems intriguing....care to elaborate?

[RobinHood3000]

Isn't it just one aspect of them that gets sacrificed? ;)

[AimusSage]

Did Robin just explain perfectly how it would work?

[kathycf]

Did he? What aspect is he referring to and just what is the nature of the sacrifice deemed necessary? Does this smiley relate at all to the current discussion? :ladysman:

[RobinHood3000]

What could POSSIBLY make you think that? :rolleyes:

[kathycf]

Don't you know? Why would you think I have the vaguest idea of what I am talking about?

[Pendragon]

A-HEM! May I assure you, that kind of maiden sacrfice is not what they mean when they toss one to a Dragon? Different species here, hello? I asume you can bring anything up on the floor at the meeting, Aimus, that's how it usually works, isn't it? BTW, the meeting is at Valhalla this round, you did get the memo? Just take the rainbow bridge and bear left, OK?
Kat, are the undead coming to this one? I heard there was some vandalism in the crypts, maybe the Union will check it out? We pay our dues, don't we?

[Madhuri]

This seems like a trap leading to sacrifice, dont you think? -- explaining the route and giving a memo and all :brow:

You think maidens will fall into this trap???

[kathycf]

Wouldn't they have to be a bit dim to fall into it?
Pen, there was vandalism at the crypts? Do you know how upset that makes me?

[miss tenderness]

seems the q is for Pen,so excuse me:D

[kathycf]

I thought I asked two questions previously?

[miss tenderness]

hehe~I just saw the last one!questions for others are alwyse more intersting than those for you:lol:

[Pendragon]

Um, well, Kat, I didn't think it would make you happy, us being members of the same lodge, I just thought you might like to know, see? Don't rightly know what was going on, pentagrams drawn everywhere, and that last crypt on the end was prized open a bit--whose was it? Bunch of people fooling with things they know nothing about, innit?

BTW, Maddie, Bifrost, The Rainbow Bridge won't work for mere mortals, so how could I be setting a trap for maidens? But I thought I might ought to leave directions, as Dragons are among the eldest, and know the paths. Nine worlds connect through Bifrost and we wouldn't want our fellows ending up burned alive in Suterheim or frozen in the wastes of Nifelheim, now would we? Can you imagine a place so cold that it burns?

[Serenata]

Who would want to imagine a place so cold it burns?

[kilted exile]

Why Imagine? Have you never been to Saskatchewan?

[Madhuri]

Do I have to ask a question, again??

[B-Mental]

nah
Did you ask one before?

[Madhuri]

Will not asking questions make this thread dead??

[Pendragon]

Who would want to imagine a place so cold it burns?Apparently the Norse people, as the legends of Nifelheim (Cold Hell) come from them, and do you know they considered Nifelheim to be worse than Suterheim even though they believed that the daemon Surt, ruler of Suterheim would destroy the world at Ragnarok, sometimes called Göttdamerung?

[aeroport]

And how could they have known that thousands of years later an old German cat named Wagner would sit down and pen, of all things, the soundtrack to the whole bloody affair?

[Pendragon]

True, true. But it's not all that bad, " Ride of the Valkyries " part is actually pretty good, you think? :thumbs_up

[aeroport]

I certainly do! Did I accidentally imply that I considered Wagner anything less than a god of music, his "Ring" cycle less than mindblowing? (Though I've not actually got passed the middle of "Siegfried" yet, so there's about five hours' worth that I cannot yet comment on.)

[Laindessiel]

I dunno about "Ride of the Valkyries". Someone tell me? Is that a play or a movie or a book?

I still have to read The Valkyries (or something like that) by Paulo Coelho.

[RobinHood3000]

Isn't it a song?

[alhara]

Has any one here read The Alchemist (also by Paulo Coelho)? Did you know that book is the reason i´m here?

[Pendragon]

"Ride of the Valkyries" is classic music by Robert Wager, didn't you guys notice Jamesion and myself discussing him? ;)

[Laindessiel]

Oh! I must've skipped the post where Jamesian said it was a soundtrack. And I think I know some author by the name of Wagner. Sorry.

Soooo, what is the question now?

[Shalot]

What is the question? Do I have to know what the question is in order to post in this thread? Who is your soul mate?

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't it clear that soul mates do not exist?

[Shalot]

Isn't the question"Who's your Soul Mate?" displayed on your monitor in large, brown sans serif font? Or is this just my problem? Does it matter? Isn't it all just for fun? What was the question?

[ShoutGrace]

:D:D

I think that the question has usually centered around either camels or turnips, hasn't it? Is it wise to deviate?

[Shadowsarin]

Blast! ShoutGrace beat me!

I think the question was how come the Tomb Raider video games were so good, yet the movies so bad? Or am I just randomly going off topic because I couldn't be bothered to read 414 pages?

[Shalot]

Weren't the movies bad because Angelina Jolie was in them with her big obnoxious lips, or am I thinking of something else?

[Shadowsarin]

Or maybe it was because the plot was almost as bad as one from a Paul WS Anderson movie?

[edit - woo, 50th post!]

[Madhuri]

Whats going on here???

[Shalot]

Why don't you tell me? Because it is me who obviously doesn't have a clue, is it not?

[RobinHood3000]

...42? :confused:

[Nightshade]

Isnt that the meaning of life?? Can I catch up only 20 somthing posts needed?

[Pendragon]

Yeah, the movies weren't great, but they have a set of novels [not graphic novels, reading novels], based on the game that aren't bad reading, ya know? AJ does have giant lips at that, doesn't she? Be a good match for Mick Jagger, eh? :lol: Just the suction from a kiss might pull the planet out of orbit or something when those lips meet, what ho? http://www.sentireascoltare.com/CriticaMusicale/ClassicAlbums/speciali/rolling%20stones/RSlogo.jpg

[Nightshade]

Hah and who said I wasnt studying?!
Tomb radier and example of remadiation, or was it synergey?:confused: i was remadiation wasnt it?

[Pendragon]

Cor, luv, h'i mentioned Mick an' AJ, innit? http://www.industreal.spb.ru/smiles/hat.gif

[aeroport]

Am I the only one around here who kind of likes Angelina Jolie's lips?

[Shadowsarin]

She has lips these days?

[Shalot]

What about Brad Pitt? He married the obnoxious lips, did he not? What do we think about him? Troll or Not? Does anyone care?

[toni]

I dont get why some girls drool over Brad Pitt. In my opinion, Tom Cruise is mucho mucho cuter, He is cuter, isn't he?

[Pendragon]

Dunno, luv, th' ladies not th' laddies wot me peppers spy, innit? Ain't a blinkin' Oscar Wilde, doncha know? Ask a bloke 'oo might apreciate male beauty, wot? ;)

[B-Mental]

I dont get why some girls drool over Brad Pitt. In my opinion, Tom Cruise is mucho mucho cuter, He is cuter, isn't he?

Ohh sure, if crazy were cute, Tomkat would have babies squirting out his ears.

Am I the only one who wishes the holidays were over already?

[ghideon]

why do you want to know?

ps
Perhaps you can tell Santa that your wish is for Christmas to stop. And if you do I want to be there.

[Pendragon]

It would certainly be a lot more bearable if they didn't start Christmas right after Halloween, wouldn't it? :flare:

[Shalot]

aren't the holidays stressful? don't you always have to visit with family members and you don't really want to but you have to because they're family? And it's all uncomfortable, isn't it? And you have to buy them gifts they don't want with money you don't have, don't you? On the other hand, we can just nurse some JD and coke (or whatever it is that makes us feel better) and wait till it's over, can't we? :nod:

Have I posted too many questions? :nod:

[Pendragon]

No questions, thread dies, innit? Bout fed up to my follicles with the whole got visit family rot and you know why? Because none of them ever come here to see me, ever, and seldom call, but this one freaking day we gotta act like family and I gotta act like I ain't been ignored since last year?!! Maybe Scrooge had something right, think?

[Madhuri]

Dont you think there will be many people who will pretend to be happy at such gatherings?? Isnt it a story of many families? If we all stopped pretending there will be nothing called family, we all will be living isolated lives. I think pretending will stll be better than lonliness......

[Pendragon]

I don't know, Maddie. Some say life is all we will ever know of heaven, which I do not believe, but you know, mine has been all I'll ever need of hell, and I don't get sacrilegious. Who would have ever imagined there were so many ways to hurt?

[Madhuri]

You neednt worry about what others did to you, as you have a wonderful home, a loving wife and lovely kids, that is your world, and they are the ones who make a difference. What more could a person ask for? I will never ever recommend anyone a life of isolation.......:D

[Shalot]

Someone said something about the mind once didn't they? Wasn't it Milton and didn't he say," The mind is its own place and in itself, can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven" ?

does the questions game every become tiring? :D

[Miss Darcy]

What are we talking about? Why isn't this thread "questions only" anymore? ...do we exist? Or is life just an illusion?

[AimusSage]

If life is an illusion, what does an illusionist do in his life?

[Pendragon]

Pretend to have a normal life? :idea:

[kathycf]

So, what's happening folks?

[Pendragon]

Would you like a sweeping generalization, or must you insist on all the tedious minutiae? http://www.invision.smileyville.net/smilies/sleepy.gif

[Miss Darcy]

Minutiae? Sweeping generalisation? Wouldn't it be better to use the Golden Mean and do something in the middle?
Does anybody else want to be a conductor? :D

[Virgil]

Is that the guy who directs you on a train? :D

[Madhuri]

Women cant read maps, is that true??

[AimusSage]

Do chickens lay eggs? :rolleyes:

[Laindessiel]

Do chickens, for real, cross roads? Even when there is a signage across the road that says "DON'T CROSS. DINOSAURS ON THIS SIDE"?

[AimusSage]

But why do chickens cross the road in the first place?

[Laindessiel]

The damned chickens need to sort what their genders are, don't they? I mean, if that certain chicken is a hen or a rooster?

[AimusSage]

Could it be super rooster arriving to save the day?

[Laindessiel]

*laughing inwardly*

A SuperHen more likely? Even Superman has a female cousin, don't he?

[AimusSage]

Isn't Superman's cousin known as supergirl?

[Laindessiel]

Supergirl is she, although I think that she's just a Superman copycat and can get away with it because SHE is a relative of his, don't ya think? But anyways, can we veer off the Superhero-ey topic and move on with something else? I kind of like the chickens, how 'bout you? :)

[AimusSage]

I think chicken tastes great, don't you?

[Madhuri]

I am a veggie...What if I ate a chicken and it started jumping inside my stomach?? *shudders*

[AimusSage]

You mean eating a life one?

[Madhuri]

A presumably dead one. Dont you think it might come alive?....*shudders even more* :sick:

[AimusSage]

Maybe if you have a magical stomach that revives all that you eat, could it be true that you have such a magical stomach?

[Madhuri]

What sort of other magic could a magical stomach do?? *thinking*
