Okay, I'm convinced it was all a ruse and Alexander is right now sitting back, sipping a brandy, and enjoying in the suffering of all of us poor souls who just wanted a chance at an iPad. So I say we storm the castle tomorrow and cause all kinds of hell. First, we'll need a plan. Since I don't have one, we'll go to step two. We'll need a bunch of these:

Until she jumped up onto my bed with one of her toy mice in her mouth... which in itself was odd as she never plays with her mice... Then she dropped it AND IT SCURRIED ACROSS THE FOOT OF MY BED!!! I let out a blood curdling scream... (kinda surprised nobody here on the forums heard me)... and decided that was enough reading for me for tonight! Me thinks I won't be getting to sleep any time soon, so I may as well hang around the forums for a bit. It's safer on the forums... there be evil critters lurking in my house and it gives me the heeby jeebies! Oi! Actually, I need a gun... I'm goin on a mouse hunt!
I came home on wednesday, and almost stumbled over a mouse. In the hallway. I managed to chase it in the bathroom (with some help of the cat) and there managed to catch him (without help from the cat).

I came home on friday, and found the cats acting weirdly in the old bedroom. After some time they managed to chase the mouse out of the room into an area where I (again, without too much help from the cats) could catch it.

I wonder why I have cats...

I heard that scream! I thought that Alex had announced the winner and someone either won it or lost it!

Settle down, pet. It's all good. I'm just an ordinary bloke. I'm on your side.

Actually, I'm on everybody's side - it's kind of my thing. I'd sell your heart's desire to you, and then your dirty secret to your mother-in-law.

Cheers,
Marc (Not green...all the colours of the rainbow)

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away



a force of brave warriors was assembled to rescue the Princess iPad from the evil Lord Darth Alexander.

Darth Alexander had turned to the dark side, repudiating his Flash ancestry and embracing the lure of the Death Apple. Darth Alex distracted the doughty MR force by launching a seductive contest to win the lovely Princess iPad. In truth, whilst the MR members jousted with one another to lodge the correct answer on the survey, Darth Alexander seized the Princess and vanished into the badlands beyond Jupiter. Even now he is running his foul fingers over her lovely touch screen, making her Apps jiggle.

MR must launch a rebel task force to track down Darth Alexander and liberate the Princess. She tried to send a message to aid the rescue team, but her Wifi connection had been dropped. Fortunately, she has left a trail of donut crumbs for MR rebels to follow!


May the Force be with MR!

Right. And it's exactly his transcendent powers of mind/matter/ether/zorq transformation that makes me quiver! Remember, he can turn people into gibbon fodder (or poo) in the blink of an eye.
