Hi Freedom! Did you get my mail?

A PROUD Englishman? An oxymoron, surely?
And...uh? I wasn't, in fact, ruffled by the fact that you thought I liked Entombed. I was just taking the opportunity to be sarcastic. But, whatever. Peace.

*snaps out of it, it being an unwholesome, w*rkinduced trance*
Woah.
Hello everyone who's popped by while I was out!
Sarcasm is a dangerous tool, Giguschild (who is Gigus anyway?). Use with caution. Like a car or a shot of whiskey. Highly usefull and entertaining, but dangerous unless applied carefully and with great though.
I though Englishmen were known for their pride... oh well...

Freedom, would you happen to know of any other Swedish h2g2 researchers in or in the neighbourhood of Stockholm?

It's all quite gigantically cunning. And the sarcasm was deserved for the stunning leap of conjecture that MikeA used.

Aha! I still know nothing of Gigus, though... Mayhaps I shall scout the rims of this community to find your lair. I am guessing there might be hints at your spawner there...

*bounces back in, the limp in his right leg almost gone*
IIEM, coffee!
*takes mug - drinks coffee*
aahhh...
In desperate need of caffeine there, after a three-hour meeting with no breaks
Excellent T! The more the merrier!!
I'm sorry if I seem a bit overly excited 'bout this, but I'm so wondering how h2g2-boys'n'gals are IRL.

Hi JAR, didn't see you come in at first!
Titania - the only other Swede I've encountered was a guy called The Duke of D... something or other, and I haven't seen him around for quite some time now. Perhaps you could get the meet advertised on the front page?
*Does some w**rk stuff*
IIEM, latte please? Thankyou.
*Does more w**k*

I don't have time to deal with this properly right now, but I'll be back this evening east coast time.
Mike A, please shun Giguschild's last remarks until I get back. I don't want to come back here and find out that you started shouting back. Restraint, please!
Giguschild, your use of the word 'peace' after those needling remarks is downright dishonest. If you want to take Mike A on, go start a thread on his home page.
And please take that furniture off the ceiling. It's rude to add fixtures without consulting the person whose virtual place it is. You are in violation of Continuity with the ceiling fans and oak beams.
See you all later!

Smile? Please?

Freedom, I've been looking for Swedes, and found the one you mentioned, together with a bunch of other Swedes in a Forum, but none of them have been around since February, except LOST, but he's currently living in Scotland...
One-eye, I'm curious too, I was so sorry I couldn't make it to the Dutch meet up - seemed they had fun...

Giguschild - Xenomorph(Muse of Honourable Death...and Mu.) Posted Oct 16, 2000
The name is pronounced like Rothschild. That is to say, roths-shild. Except it's Guy-gus-shild. That's to draw attention away from the spelling, which is Guy...gers...child...geddit? (Xenomorph = Alien from the Alien films? Does that help?) As I said, it's relatively fiendish.
*Dismantles table and places it in dark, cold corner*
OK, ok, Mike. Metal is great, all this church-burning and stuff is really impressive. All metal, rock, punk etc. is brilliant, quite possibly the best music around in fact. Relationships between bands/band-members are also fascinating. Ok?

Anyone mind telling me what you're supposed to do when the single most important tool you have for workrelief, LIMS, suddenly won't do as you tell it to?
Aaaarrrggghhh!!!
Oh well, I'll just have another cup of coffee then...
IIEM?

One-eye, Tuesday is OK with both Freedom and me...
If there's anyone else here who happens to be in Stockholm on Tuesday next week, October 24th, you're welcome to join us having a couple of beers...

Freedom Posted Oct 16, 2000
Titania, One-Eye - guess it's just us then...and let me assure you that I am also ridiculously excited about it
I've been looking around for Swedes too, but they don't seem to stick around very long do they? I'm hoping they'll turn up once they hear about the meet. We'll see.
Coffee time again! IIEM, latte please?
