Right. That's it for me. Night Ook.
*puts v/_|3 on to boil for BB or BS should they come by soon*
Ook would you mind taking it off the boil when it is ready?
Ook: ook.
Thanks. See you tonight, proxy permitting
*departs via the CLI tunnel as staing at the Atelier tonight(today now as it is 07.40 BST)*

The man on the red-velvet-couch begs not to be called a beggar.

At number 317 in this forum (or close to that number) jr52 posted this.

"That's right folks, for just a $50 contribution we will send you this perfectly marvellous premium. But, we need you to call in right now so we know you support what we are doing here."

Sound familiar? Beggin ain't pretty, ya know.

jr52, here is a one word answer "satire". Here is a two word answer "Kiwi humour". Here is a many worded question. Do you believe in little green men?

I know reality bypasses ain't pretty.

In rugby, what happens on the field stays on the field. I believe what is posted on a mailing list should only be discussed on the mailing list.

I don't know. I really don't.

Sips tea

*Peregrin, trying to catch up with a day's worth of missed h2g2ing, rushes in, downs five cups of coffee, gabbles incoherently, and rushes out again*

Good Morning. Coffee, please IIEM. I'm here WAY too early (in central Canada) but RL is going to call before too long. Hello Ook.

Are the papers here? *Sits down with a crossword*

*Io stumbles in, trying to get the hang of the new navigation system*
*New to her, at least... nu,bered posts, good lord*

Anyways, I'd like a white hot chocolate... sorry I didn't return to collect mine yesterday.

About a week ago, as I was in a bedouin tent somewhere in southern israel drinking some extremely strong coffee, I thought of the aroma cafe. So as my gift for y'all please except a new flavor. Bedouin coffee. I believe it's not all that different from turkish coffee, but it's goood stuff whatever it is.

Oh, and does Looney's post make sense if you've been around the past five weeks?

if it makes ya feel better, Io, i didn't get a word of it. and i've been here...
someone find me a jolt cola... it's too darn early in the morning for human beings to be conscious....

*pops in, cursing at himself* Cuban coffee togo please.
*looks aprehensivly at IIEM, perhaps will always be nervous around this machine*
Hey guys, gotta go. Can't play in the afternoon. ISP way too slooooooooooooooow. Only this site though. Huh? See you guys later.
*bolts out the door, wishes he could stay longer, but pages take about 6 minutes each to load.*

turn the pictures off, it'll be like a caffine hit for your connection but it'll look strange and maybe kill you fish.

Erm..*looks sheepish*...could I get Guatamalen full roast and maybe a doughnut?

*floating in, in her usual vague, elf-like manner*

Hi all!

Just wanted to say, that if you have something to say, why not say it at:

http://www.h2g2.com/U147915

*drifting off, in her usual v.e.l.manner*

Or come for a stiff drink at the Drinks Cabinet http://www.h2g2.com/A410301

Has someone been fiddling with the IIEM? I've just recieved a cup of Guatamalan doughnuts?
*Looks at VALISE420*

*enters Cafe after trying to read 2 days worth of backlog from various fora*

IIEM...something VERY caffinated, please...thanks.

*decides ignorance is bliss*

*jogs in through back door looking distracted and excited*

Can't stay long, but needed to get from machine and get some fresh sir. What better way than the woodtrail between the atelier and here!

Io! Good to see you. You'll come to really like this new archetecture. It has great precision. And the Goo version is better than the alabaster one, at least in fora. The main pages have a few more buttons.

IIEM an -- oh. Hold on. *reaches down under counter and pulls out an extremely large ballpeen hammer made of yellow nerf. Proceeds to whack the IIEM vigorously on both sides*

There, that should do it. Nobody else try this, OK? It's a professional tool.

IIEM, one A L Special. *IIEM serves up correct request* Good, it's working OK again.

Hi, Lil...IIEM worked fine for me...

*rummages through backlog*

I could have missed something vital!

I just take what I can get. This Cuban coffee is 1/2 sugar, but I've just learned to deal with it.
* flicks switch on VPB, waits for beep, then lights cigar.*

post #350.
Don't worry.

See what I mean, Io?

Hmmmmm....

It wasn't the IIEM playing up, it was me having trouble talking. Too many drinkies last night, head still foggy. The IIEM just couldnt understand the slurred voice.

*drinks the coffee that he ordered when no-one was looking*

Every time I come in here I get told off...

Aw, Goof, that's not so bad...I usually get ignored!

Nah. I never told you off! I look for excuses to deploy the Big Yellow Hammer.

*snarfs down another apple spice donut* Carbo-load! Need to keep my brain going, it and I are having a wonderful time at work.
