Malarkey ?

That's what I said.

Why ?

hmm
i only joined after like 4 dots or something
so i would not know much about the orrigins

Let's face it, this whole thing is a bit silly. I think 'malarkey' is a perfectly appropriate word for our situation. I mean, the Amazon rainforst!

Oh well...

hmmm...
sure, call it whatever you want, but i prefer to stay in my fantasy and find nothing more odd than just odd

*Dances the Malarky, a soft shuffle, accompanied by trombones*

I say, if we arrange the tortoises, we could rig up a make shift xylophone. What do you say? It don't look like they're about to go nowhere..

*arranges a group of tortoises, placing the largest on the far right and the smallest on the far left.*

*Srikes a tortoise*
PING!

Well, that seems all right. *Strikes another*

Maybe we ought to move that one down a bit.

*Shuffles Tortoises*

Right then, here we go...

*Boogies*

*decides, what the hell, might as well*

boogies also

*Rigs up some loudspeakers from makeshift owls, and a lighting system from jellyfish and assorted protazoa*

this place is getting high teck!

That's quite a bass-line those speakers are turning out. If that's what owls can do, imagine taking a bigger bird. Any ostriches handy?

i dont know
*goes off on a safari to find one*

I'll stay in here while you do that. Safaris are all very well, but they are rather tiring, not to mention hot.

*comes back into the tiki hut*

it moved while i was gone, you cannot imagine the troubles i had to find it!

but i am back and here is your flamingo

it is a bit bedragled, but it should be fine in a bit

Is ELPN3 around to plug it in? I'm not that good with machines. There, ostrich, why don't you just sit right down...

whoops i got a flamingo, must have mis-heard, i must go off on another safari now to get an ostrich
