Found this on Amazon!



Knew it!

Here are the first few pages.....sigh! :rolleyes:



And more, if you can stomach it?



Hmmm, l will only buy and read this book, after visiting a pub, or two! He, he!

Probably be in the adult book section with a health warning? :rolleyes::p

      Sweet! :p

      Yep, Lord of the Rings, might have an oversupply of slimy creatures, and depressingly long journeys through cold and damp landscapes, but there is always a Mc-precious around the corner!

      Would you like a Sword with That???? He, he!

        Really? The asylums over there let their patients out on breaks?

        How wonderful for you. Will you be taking one of NASA's ships to Mars to look around for yourself up close and personal while you're out? I'm sure that either Dan or Claude would be willing to snag a set of keys for you.....for the right price.

          What after all the trouble l went through finding you a nice crystal tube on Mars? :rolleyes:

          Hmmmmm, not at the moment, but it is a nice thought!


          Well, l will wait and see how Claude and Dan react, but l am sure that they will just see this as bit of fun, (well Claude will)?


          This may not have been the best Xmas l have had, but l am trying to make the best of it, and have a bit of fun!

          Hope that you have a great new year, Sal!

          All the best!

            Shane, Shane, Shane, my precious,

            I used to love to read the Hobbit, how could you decimate it like that? :p

              Terra
              Mwahahahaahhaha!Yep, exactly why l tour it to bits!

              I half expected the Bible spinoff to get me in Douch, but everyone had fun with that, so..... :rolleyes:


              I am glad Claude or Dan didn't do the Hobbit one, probably have leather bondage references, and cross dressing elf's?


              As Sal has more or less said, l need to cut down on my psychotic tendencies, or take my medication whichever comes first, (that is a joke Dan, seriously).

              Or stop watching seriously deranged Youtube video late at night!


              Have to be created by bored teenagers in a mental ward with a Laptop! Out of my league, thankfully!


              Have a good new years Terra, l will leave your precious Hobbit alone. I can decimate plenty of other classic material elsewhere. He, he!

                Hmmmmm,

                You got my thinker to thinking...

                Up for a challenge, Shane?

                How about decimating the classic Brer Rabbit and The Tar Baby?

            Shane; You are right in thinking that I'll see this as fun. However, the evil Gollum known as Riffle will be snarling and snorting.

            In fact, good Hobbits have a rhyme;

            Beware the snarl, the snort, and the sniffle.
            Of that evil Gollum known only as Riffle.
            He eats little Hobbits both seasoned and plain,
            He has a real taste for Hobbits named Shane.
            He eats with knives, forks, and other devices,
            And prefers his Shane cooked with eleven herbs and spices.

            Apparently Tolken learned how to write from reading Dr Seuss books.:rolleyes:

            Um........yeah.........the OT is supposed to be the fun place in this forum. If it stops being that, a few of us are gonna get slapped hard huh? I thought, of all people, you would be the one WANTING to steal the keys to the spaceship.


            Claude - I thought you were supposed to train a gollum with a rolled up newspaper or something. Try that it might work.

              Seems that l am not the only psychotic genius here!

              True, let Riffle out of his heavy chained existence, and l will need to watch my back!

              Or he will be snarling, drooling and leaving muddy footprints all over this forum, (probably explains the tech issues).

              And probably seasoning newbies, that are unaware of this evil presence!

              Um....ok....sorry, Sal l didn't realise it was all tongue and cheek!

              And true, going to Mars and patting a Martian rabbit, or rat would be seriously cool, but l will wait a few years for the privately funded martian rover to show us what is really there! Martian rabbits and all!

                Oh hell you aren't even close. You've never heard of the story of how the OT was conceived?

                Allen and a few of his partners were sitting around discussing finances, technologies, etc -- and Allen interrupted a fairly heated discussion by asking "hey what is that place that all the psychotic geniuses always meet up, I can't remember the name of that place."
                And Allen's partner just stared at him a minute and then replied "Jeez Allen. That's so completely Off the Topic." So here we all are.

                  Yep, l suppose "Off Topic" sounds better than "Psychotic Genius Topic" newbies can always get lucky?

                  I stand corrected, l think? :rolleyes:
