How about Wee Willy Winkie?

GeoffC · 08-18-2008, 12:43 PM

Just for me with all my chocolate....I'll change that to Wonka....

Well, I'm just reading them in publication order, and that's working really well for me. I haven't found a book in that series that I haven't enjoyed ... so, thus far, I'm batting 1000 (if that is, indeed, the proper number to be batting).

I keep running across the best quotes and ideas in these books .... like when someone asks Death if there is anything worth living for, and Death replies ... "Cats. Cats are quite nice."

That's my kind of Death .... and good heavens ... Glenn Moon is actually out for a walk!! That almost never happens!! I think that may be one of the signs of the Apocalypse.

Silly. I should have said "Pratchett's wizards," of course. None of them have ever offered me dark chocolate, after all!

Oh, crap .... what happened to the llamas??

nekokami · 08-18-2008, 01:01 PM

Crap is right. I can't post any llama pictures right now because I'm at work and there's something screwy about the network here (that the IT people are consistently denying).

GeoffC · 08-18-2008, 01:02 PM

There was only one, and Neko-chan has her hands on it...

Well, if there aren't any llamas, then how could there be llama pictures? And if the network is down, then how can you be posting? I think you're an imposter, quite frankly!

zelda_pinwheel · 08-18-2008, 01:05 PM

maybe we should add a llama tag to this thread. that ought to confuse old terry, if he ever stops by.

GeoffC · 08-18-2008, 01:05 PM

It is when pshrynk is confused that I begin to worry....

Hm. Ask me something only I would know the answer to? But as we've never met, how would you be able to verify it by means not available to an impostor me?

Anyhoo, I have plenty of llamas here and I'll post some tonight. With pandas. When I'm on a network that doesn't disable ftp protocols.
