Hullo Wowbagger,
A joke a frame, what a triumph. Drop on over to my place for proof of that bitchiness I was telling you about the other day. Oo I love it!

Odd. This is on the "5 busiest forums" list. Two threads, neither of which has a posting in the last 3 days?

Bizarre to say the least! Perhaps it is h2g2's way of recognising the wit and wisdom of Wowbagger!

Not that I've posted on this forum yet. Well... until now that is. 
'Wit' and 'Wisdom'? You maybe half right on the first word shazz, but that's as far as I go on that one.
Sorry I haven't responded to this earlier spim but I've been away for the weekend at a wedding (poor fools!). Shall head to Paper Cuts postey hastey

I don't know... you might change your mind about that second word come Thursday .
Hold on, wasn't the Enigmatic what Alan Turing used to wash his underpants in?
Ah, and on the subject of bad jokes, here are a couple of Christmas cracker style gags I penned:
Q: what does a photocopier like to spread on its toast?
A: paper jam
Q: what did Plague give Death for Christmas?
A: just another pair of pox
I think the second one's hilarious: I thought of it yesterday and I'm still laughing. What a sad spimcoot I am.
Thanks for appreciating the playlet, though I've a feeling it didn't go down quite as well as a cartoon, which is flattery for the artwork of course.
Bung ho,

Corny Cracker Jokes! WARNING!
Post Team Posted Dec 19, 2001
Oh my goodness... 
Perhaps you should pen a warning before sneaking in cracker jokes! It's not good for my hangover this early/late in the morning!

Corny Cracker Jokes! ssshhhhhh!
spimcoot Posted Dec 19, 2001
Ah but it's difficult to tell someone a joke if they're disappearing over the horizon in a cloud of dust: sneak attacks are therefore the only way to reach one's audience. Hangovers on the part of recipients are not my responsibility (and actually, they're just as bad when compos mentis).
It's funny but normally I hate jokes...
Corny Cracker Jokes! ssshhhhhh!
Wowbagger Posted Dec 19, 2001
I find being half drunk the best time to give and receive the best worst gags. I've always had a soft spot for the elephant joke myself
Corny Cracker Jokes! ssshhhhhh!

Bad news guys! 
I know that you both knocked yourselves out to produce cartoons for the Christmas edition but I am unable to get them blobbed. 
Apparently it's all to do with that server upgrade which speeds the site up!
As Mark told me:
'As the server change has broken that particular aspect of the
site, so I'm afraid we simply can't do it.'
He is going to ask Jim when he gets back but there is nothing any of us can do atm.
So... I could have given you the festive season off after all!
shazz ... frazzled and well behind today! 
Corny Cracker Jokes! ssshhhhhh!

*shrugs*
When's the next edition you want us to produce something for?
Corny Cracker Jokes! ssshhhhhh!
Post Team Posted Dec 19, 2001
Dunno
I am hoping for some more concrete news tomorrow...
If you have prepped something still send it through anyway! 
Who knows the secret of the black box?

I'm saying nothing about computers and their \\\ways\\\. One step back to make two steps forward wouldn't be so bad if the one back didn't take you over a precipice of DOOM. Ah well. Onwards and... onwards.

Steady the buffs! There are limits to the powers of mistletoe you know shazz . But hooray for the blob! I should probably add the behind-the-scenes folk to my dedication on Paper Cuts but, as you've so recently found, there are only room for two at any one time.
I must rush home at have at my nib .
