Well since the consensus is that we all missed the 100,000 post party, I hereby suggest/move/put foreward for vote, that the Cantina, herebye hold a bash to celebrate the 100,000 post. All costs to be put on MM and Shrapnel's tabs, and that the party shall commence upon hmm, say on Thursday the 13th, in order that everyone shall see the invite. I also put to vote that GT, Gryphin, Dogscoff and Taz be put in charge of the refreshments and entertainment, David G to create a 100,000 Mural for the cantina wall over the bar,
Timstone to see that time stands still for the party, and Rags and Rd for bouncers.. Further Old Time Geezers get to drink and chase the fluffy bunnies all they want (as long as the ticker keeps up

and that Liz Hurly be invited to attend as the guest of , yours truly

just some ideas Mac

Thanks for the info, David.

Let's invite Kylie to the party, too!
...If she can't make it, then we'll still have these cloned waitresses.

By the way, some of us still don't know what the Gryphin position and circle the wagon are. Are you going to teach us at the party?

Oh, I am so bad!

Everybody gets to come... But not everybody gets to come in... With me and RD bouncing, only special people can get into the party. So you all better be nice to us now and stuff to build up some brownie points in order to insure that you make it inside.

No sooner is the room stripped bare than the industrious crustaceans begin to refit it to look like a genuine Bavarian beer hall, complete with wooden benches, big barrels 'o beer and a stein-swinging oompah band in the corner.

The Kylie clone waitresses and FBWs are sent away to change into their new, highly improbable, Oktoberfest-style bosom enhacing uniforms, and everyone is immediately served (and required to gulp down) two large steins of highly potent CantinaBrau.

Spotting a mysterious energy being sat in the centre of a group of admirers, Dogscoff sists himself at a table next to her, using the energy fields given off to charge his laptop.

mmmm... Oompah bands...

lordy, but i have been away too long. Not having the patience to read back more than two pages, allow me to spew forth my meager mockery of wisdom regarding cartoon violence:

while it is frustrating when arbitrary actions couteract one's intentions, there are a few unspoken rules of cartoon violence, that are all too often violated.

Firstly, you should never contradict someones cartoon violence. If, for example, Puke smacked 'Scoff with a rolled up newspaper, Dogscoff would not then say "but el vomito actually missed." He would instead retort that "the newspaper was made from substandard stock, and desentigrates on impact, leaving puke unarmed while umpaloompas bludgeon him with large wooden spoons." Thus, cartoon violence becomes an excercise of wits, not pedantic he-said she-said.

secondly, out of respect for the first rule, people should avoid trumps, and ultimate unbeatable situations. things like "I retreat to my fallout shelter seconds before my tactical nuclear warhead vaporizes Dogscoff, who was without his radiation suit +2" should simply never be said.

thirdly, in order to avoid cartoon escelation and proliforation on a scale only containable by international cartoon disarmament treaties, people should aim for self deprication. if a battle is heating up, take the fall youself. describe the other person clocking you, instead of the other way around. that way, you get to go out with style, rather than settling for how they would have phrased it. next time, you will get to do it to them. no one really keeps score, the important thing is to have a funny punchline.

Lastly, Taz, pour me a Spaten from the tap. an Optimator, please. and a round of Belgian ale for the Oompah band, between sets.

Mac, it was a fair trade, I bought some stylish new Danish study furniture and convinced she-who-must-be-bowed-down-before that a flat screen LCD monitor and cordless keyboard and mouse would be ever so trendy, state of the art and stylish....

She went along with it....

Have I mentioned the casing of my PC, I got it through a mate of mine who works at MESH and it has one of the new sleek dark neon blue Cyber Fusion cases, with a window on the side and some twinkly lights in it as well..... it is MIINNNTTT and Mediaval is so good on it, it is brill, the graphics are so clear you can see what your spearmen are thinking, and also spot the one in the fourth rank with a dribbly nose!!!

Puke, I agree with your rules completely, cartoon violence is more an exercise in creativity, humour and most importantly, a battle of wits and exchange of (mostly) civilised banter.......

Now Mac is back, where did I put my trusty (yet highly efficient) red hot poker hand cannon??
