Subj : Life Will Not Be Like Star Trek To : ceri@twmba.net From : Moebius Date : Mon Jul 12 2004 08:44 pm The Moon was red, making Rai ask Moebius, "Is this a bad sign?" ctn> M >> Who /are/ you talking to? ctn> R >> We go through this every year or so don't we... I'm talking to ctn> the ctn> R >> reflection in _YOUR_ monitor M>> All right, I'll stop. ctn> OOOOOOHHHHHHH!!! Do I win? >> ... [loss of another echo]... R>>> BTW FWIW I lit a candle for it's loss. M>> It's okay. Apparently when 'Lhu and Azraeal left, that was it. ctn> I was going to ask where the old crowd went. I had no one (.. OK OK a ctn> reducing number of old mates ...) to gloat to about finishing the ctn> degree ctn> (even if the kid graduated from pre-school before her mom did from ctn> Uni) The kids have to feel superior to the parents at least once. After that, well... M>> If the lurkers had bleeding /tried/... ctn> Oh yea there is that... A local pagan list we've got only has a ctn> handful of punsters active & the rest are lurkers - & as O-pun ctn> warfare is _not_ a spectator sport these are the ones complaining ctn> about the efforts to keep the puns on topic Puns being on topic? That's like fishing being mistaken for a spectator sport. >> ...Dr Who... ctn> Woooo Woooo.... a rumor. Dr Who Telly movie with a female Dr. They've ctn> named .. goddess I can never remember her name .. it's Patty from ctn> Ab-Fab. & I think she's got the talent to pull it off - more in a Tom ctn> Baker-esque way than some of the more serious goes... It'll be ctn> interesting. It should. I do hope they manage to keep the quality up. The TV movie was all right...for a partly-American production. ctn> & there's another rumor about another attempt & HHGTTG but it names ctn> that gormless Mr Grant as Arther Dent ... Not /Hugh/ Grant. I don't know if he has the ability to look harried enough. M>>>> Moebius, the most cynical person you've met...so far. R>>> One of the top 10 I'd admit but that's about the closest R>>> I'd admit... );-) M>> Why, thank you. M>> Moebius, who feels slightly flattered. ctn> Better than slightly battered - although I'd be careful of ctn> the quality (& quantity ??? ) of eggs in the batter or ctn> the yoke'll be on you.. All right, it's CODDLING TIME!! Moebius, whose punishments are known for their unreasoning cruelty. ....
