Oh well I won't be asking the great God Garner to grant me any wishes soon. I might get deluged instead of showered and one Kruger was enough, no need for more 'ands eh?

Inwig I think you may have confused GGG with the Ba. Ba is the god that goes in for a lot of smiting. Garner just tends to rant. Sometimes you do wish that he'd just smite you. At least its quicker...

Amusingly, the only word I've seen Grace, spelling bee extrodinaire, misspell is that, misspell. 8)


That which does not kill me has committed a serious mistake.

O Irony, my muse!

Edit to add: I didn't actually misspell it, I typoed it. This is an important difference. I think I've only made one spelling error since I was 11. I have, however, made many typos.

The Garner who cares.

That's because you're special!

(... Just keep telling yourself that and the smiting won't be so bad...)

Right so GGG is "and the Word is", Ba is "and the Smiting is".

Ok got it. Now who is "and the Direction is"? That's the one I have to keep an eye on for when to take evasive action if posting smart alec comments.

Ducking and leaping around for no apparent reason just makes you look silly.

Default Hello!!! - 06-24-2008, 07:59

Thankyou for keeping me on the list!

It has been sooo long since i've been here, and I really have NO excuses.
Apple-ogies to those of you who I bumped off the list, but, well, you get that ^_^.

There will soon be more, but those I currently remember are Maljonic, Buzzfloyd, Orrdos, Garner, Rincewind, Bradthewonderllama, Colonesque, Perdita, Samantha Vimes, Mazekin, Trollmother, Plaid, Ba, Marcia and SamSpayed... I am trolling the boards for more names, and I hope that some of you still remember me!

Gypsy

p.s. Does anyone remember what my avatar used to look like? I lost it. I think it was some sorcerer looking lady with some white electric light bizzo...

Hi Gypsy, I remember you.

I forgot all about this thread. I like the description of Katcal: "Unseen Vintage".

Welcome back Gypsy.

Thanks for reminding me of that Mal, I also loved the "crypto-French" comment, although of course, I am now Pseudo-irish...
