Q: Harv, this is the new ZCD Cocktail Shaker I've been developing

Harv: Nice...what does it do?

Q: By applying the appropriate ingredients and shaking vigorously it'll produce an advanced, reality-altering hallucinogen that will incapacitate a person for the previous fortnight

Harv: ...

Q: What?

Harv: So, it's just a normal ZCD Cocktail Shaker?

Q: I'll have you know that It's made of carbon fibre, and has an Aston Martin logo in the side!

Harv: ...

Q: It's also wireless...

Harv: ...

Q: ...for the intehwebs

Harv: ...

Q: ...

Harv: You've gotten lazy, haven't you, Q?

Q: Sorry, I got caught up in the MR Llounge and ran out of time

Harv: Well, take a sip and give yourself a fortnight's credit

Q: Good idea. Can I get you a drink?

Harv: I thought you'd never ask

Trying to get the idea of a Bond spoof out of my head (and no, I don't mean the original Casino Royale with David Niven). Problem is the cast list (and story, and plot, and ....). At present cast goes:

Bond: Harv
Bond Girl: Vera
M: Patricia
Moneypenny: Zelda
Q: Marc
Felix Leiter/Jack Wade: RSE
Chief Villian: DixieGal (overacting to a tee)
Villian's main henchwoman: ShortAndCuddlyAm
<need lots more characters/bit parts....>

The plot: an evil plan to gain total control over the world supply of chocolate, and selling it to the highest bidder (which would naturally result in world domination....)

Exactly. So by dominating the trade we'll be ensuring a consistent supply of the stuff. After all, we're interested in profits as well as chocolate, so it would make no sense to hoarde the stuff, now would it? :angelicsmile:

I'm currently very involved in the campaign against cutting all the Humanities and Welsh teaching at the Cardiff Centre for Lifelong Learning.

We've got an online petition now

Right now, I'm avoiding getting into the new Electronic Medical Record, which turns out to be more annoying than you can imagine. Even more annoying than Marc can imagine.

Are you sure, because I can imagine some pretty annoying stuff...like that idiotic "Do the Helen Keller and talk with your hips" song, why I just want to jam each of those annoyingly unfunny, moronic bastiches down hard onto the unlubricated, rough end of a pineapple, by the gods, I so do, and what the hell's up with that shite-lyric "Your sex is on fire" blather-ballad, it sounds like a farkin' ode to a googly bits rash, or at least to its topical cream, I'd grab those feeble-minded droolers and blowtorch their tadgers "clean" if they want to moan about it so bloody much, gods-damned tuneless twats [mumble grumble]...
