Steve G. Sure, but only if its freshly ground and cooked rare. Unlike SJ, I’m not one of the folks from Vega.

Getting back on topic, how about a real mince-meat pie?

Pies–is there anything they can’t make better?

Having just read John’s pre-review, I can’t wait to see the interpretative dance.

An expectant silence falls over the audience as John Moltz makes his majestic and triumphal approach to the Holy keyboard, which will despatch his Epistle to his followers around the World.
Gratefully we will learn the real truth behind Steve’s non Sermon on the Moscone.

*Still need the votes for Mayor of Croydon. Now off to throw up*

@19: What about a nice juicy hamburger?

Nice over there… But there’s no tunnels…

Oh, I’d also like you to know, after clicking ‘it’, I seemed to have developed this nasty rash.
Thanks John…

If Steve ate more pie, he’d probably put on some weight. Sure works for me.

Nxxx . . . you know Moltz doesn’t get a vote on you becoming Mayor, yes? So quit the arse-licking and get on with that Prattler Prattle.

Here’s mine.

All. The. Marmite. You. Can. Lick. Off.

Now I just sit back and think about precisely which jaunty angle I want to wear that Tricorne.

Incidentally, I play drums . . . pretty badly. Will that do, or will I have to become Mayor of Eurovisiyania?

I find it thrilling and I am very proud to be allowed to post here that at this very moment, John Moltz is sharpening his keyboard to enable the enlightenment of his followers regarding things MacWorld.
How can we prove worthy of this selfless service the Blessed John provides?
Not Moltz for President but Moltz, the Apple Messiah.
I prostrate myself at his Holy Feet, so it had better be good Moltz or you’re dead.

Those newshounds will probably find out that Nxxx is Welsh or plays the saxophone. Either way, that would be the end of it.

In the US, one can play the saxophone badly and still become President. I’m afraid the Brits might have higher standards.

The Croydon Prattler announces its 16th Occasional Mayorality Contest. For all of you who were not here to participate during our last such event (or who previously didn’t give a proper damn), allow me to review the rules thereof:

1. The post of Mayor will be awarded to the person who, in the opinion of our Editorial Review Board, submits to this Paper, in written form comprising twenty-five words or less, the most clever and original reason(s) why she or he should become our next Mayor.
2. Ditties, slogans, mottos, jingles, or short poems will be accepted in lieu of normal prose.
3. Entries that employ, in any basic or derivative form, the words “change,” “hope,” “terror,” or “Marmite” will be immediately disqualified.
4. The winning contestant must agree to remain as a resident and Mayor of Croydon, no matter what, at least through the Winter.

Thank you for your participation, and good luck to all our courageous entrants!
