Why have you all got such silly names?

Hi there! *people duck for ballistic donut particles*
Is there a place where I can safely quarantine my new entries? I noticed the 'critique fun run' section over on the aces' homepage, but it seems to deserted?

Ragnar - it's because we're silly.

Sir Fragalot - Vegiman has been very busy with the POST and other things, and hasn't had time to get another Fun Run going. To illustrate the point, one of my articles is still listed in the current Run, even though it has been there for what seems like months. In the meantime, I'll try and pop over to your page for a read or two..........

Ragnar the Scottish Terrier........and that's not silly?

We all assume a "Nick" that suits us.....something we wish to be known as......trouble is, it's all ficticious, the key word is "wish"!

NM

*blinks* ... Are you trying to tell us you're -not- strange?

We'll have to talk to monsy about that.

'Nonnie

There's something really *weird* about people who aren't strange...

actually he is more than fairly strange, he is totally completely without a shadow of a doubt strange so i guess in a way his nick can be called fictitious as it does not describe truthfully just how strange he is
monsy

Sounds like a very convincing argument to me

I think you may be "fairly right", Monsy!

By the by.....anybody seen my power saw? I was planning on doing some improvements to my page, but I can't find my power saw......and I can't a thing without it!

If you listen carefully, I think you might just be able to hear it... It's coming from...
*shuts eyes and listens carefully, triangulating the source of the noise*
...over there.
*points into the middle distance*

D**N!!!! I thought I shut that thing off!.......wish I hadn't put that modified extention cord on it! With the lead it's got, I may NEVER catch it!

Thanks for the tip! Gotta run now! Gotta run real FAST!!!

NM

That would, of course, be the other way of tracking it down. Follow the extension lead.

Oh - how about pulling the plug on it *before* giving chase (sorry if this advice has come a little too late)?

*wonders idly where Peta has gotten off to*

She usually has the new week's thread up by now.

*wonders if it would be okay for an 'assistant' to put them up... hrms...*

Well, it's a bit late to be asking things like that...
