Something or another wars episode V: The spam comes back

fable · Post by **fable** » Thu Jul 26, 2007 7:11 pm

I had a teacher once whom a student asked, "What's that dead animal on your head?" It turned out that it was a raccoon, which he'd put on in the morning, thinking it was his tupee. As the tupee was particularly obnoxious, no one noticed the difference, until this student. Who, by the way, received an A for good observation. (It was a class in dwarven aerial bombardment.) Of couse, a few people cried favoritism, but the teacher put an end to those comments by marrying the student. He also buried the raccoon. though it seemed to get the raw end in the whole deal. After all, it never got an A, and it ended up dead. Still, it had helped two lonely people find love and happiness together, and that's what it's all about, isn't it?

Sorry. I was channeling Jan Jensen for a moment. Happens all the time, right?

Your years of traveling and exposures to various... erm, experiences would make you a sought-after tale-teller.

I assume tho that you CAN sing.

I can certainly tell stories. Some of them are even true, even though most people get the true and false ones mixed up.

As for singing, I can carry a tune. Not without asthmatic huffing, but hey, you do what you can with what you've got.

Rather quiet here these days. Any plans to liven things up?

Sinister · Post by **Sinister** » Fri Aug 03, 2007 11:46 am

Perhaps we should settle for tinned dog food?

Fantastic idea.

All we need now is a B-17 bomber to carry those bombs. The fireworks will be great.

If the target area is far away, I highly doubt it but if it is near the party, then all I can say is look for shelter.

Is it possible to bomb a zeppilein? Cos that what i just boked for the party

You can, if it's still on the ground. Once its up in the air, you may need something different.

Though hardly any shelter can protect you from spam...
Actually, I can't think any form of shelter which does...

Probably an underground bunker?

If it can protect you from a nuclear explosion, I'm sure it is spam-resistant (unless this sort of spam is unsual in its kind).

But then there is a saying that familiarity breeds contempt.

Which misses the point here.

Which point?
