So, did you find one? I found one behind the sofa...well, it would be good, if it wasn't for all these timid folk muttering about HarryT's avatar...

I'm habitually used to working on the very latest prototype and bleeding-edge kit in work, so you can guess I'm an early adopter for pretty much everything.

I used to work at the bleeding edge, but I soon realised I wasn't cut out (or was I?) for knife-juggling.

Work-wise, I run a computer consultancy firm specialising in troubleshooting and in innovations, so if anyone wants any tech talk, I'm the guy to talk to.

Do you know the proper way to perform heat-parameter testing on an obstreperous llama, is there any means of detection of your typical invisible and inadvertently violent gibbon, and how would you install a time-dilator in a small kitten (without the use of chain mail gloves, seven litres of baby oil, and a death wish)?

Claims to fame involve insulting Queen Elizabeth II to her face, and stealing Bill Gates' stapler...

Did you challenge her to a dual? (It's like a duel, but you do it from a horizontally opposed tandem bike)

I've had a vision that involved robot guitars taking over the world. They weren't good robot guitars either; they were pure evil, only playing "Kum ba yah" and John Mayer songs.

Shhh, don't remind him. I owe the cloven-hoofed bastard about seventeen avatars worth of souls. Say, Sparrow...are you doing anything with your soul at the moment, because it's looking a little...tarnished...and I'm happy to take it down to the local jeweller for a polish. I can even make you an avatar to use as a substitute while you wait?

G'day, I'm Marc. Welcome aboard. [holds out hand]. Oops, sorry, let me put my Zany Carter Deluxe down. Hey, say, can I get you one? I'm out of twirly straws, but I've a three-tiered, saffron, Balinese cocktail umbrella I can pop in it that you'll...just...die...for.

or maybe I will have known before (uhh...) -- but anyway, how could you have seen me if I was disguised as a lamp...?

Well, every other bit of lighting at the Party Villa was a flaming torch or bonfire of some kind, so a lamp kind of sticks out. That's probably why people kept trying to set you on fire.

Besides, the last time I was a n00b was when I was born :-p

Prepare to be reborn at the Party. It's a magical experience, if a trifle sticky (the Oort-Whale cows are all up for the part if you give them enough liquid methane)
Cheers,
Marc
