Hello Clive,
Remember me (mad squirrel hunter from before the BBC age.)
I have a theory for why Wednesday must be called Wibble! (the exclamation mark is obligatory. The more the merrier)
When you reach wednesday the "Sodit" feeling of monday is gone, the relief that it's not Sodit on Tuesday has passed but you are yet to reach the anticipation of Thing. Therefore you feel trapped and lost in the middle. You are seeking escape. How do you escape? Well if you watch Blackadder, the only way to escape is to put a pair of pants on your head, shove pencils up your nose and answer every question with Wibble!!! Then they'll think your mad and send you home (or at least to Thing)
Am I right?
WIBBLE!

Hi! what do you think of the new place, is it not nifty?
Ah! Well, I confess Wibble was just drawn from the Ether - I agree that it does also occour in that particular Blackadder script but I assure you, it wasn't my aim to plagerise that one work (I didn't even think of it 'till you mentioned it.) - Wibble was just 'right' in some odd sorta way. We all liked it. The name stuck.
If you read the (incomplete - and YES I *know*, I'm working up to it, that's all...) Manifesto, you can see that this is the one reason why Wednesday (Well I can't spit, roolz say so, but place imaginary gesture to indictate repulsiveness here....) needed to go and be repleaced by something else.
Wibble was the best choice.
Clive

How dare you unsheath before me.
It was my turn.
I challenge you to a deul (slaps face with glove made of kippers...looks confused for a minute and then in a spark of inginuity slaps YOUR face with the glove)
What's a deul? It's like a duel butt spellet ron

It wouldn't fit in the title box. Anyway I only wear my own collar, I'm not responsible of all dog-collars everywhere. Otherwise I would have to include my whip and gimpmask too.
WIBBLE!

no electrified nipple-clamps?
I am dissapointed.....

I don't actually wear them myself. I just attach them to others when they are not expecting it. I have a particular skill of finding nipples. It's an inbuilt attraction.
