Be jealous. - Be very, very jealous.

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I am, right now, at this very moment, looking at a copy of Terry Pratchett's new book, [i:post_uid0]The Wee Free Men[/i:post_uid0], which is sitting in my hand as I type this (which is not easy I can tell you).

Heheheh. I can only picture the expression on your faces.[/color:post_uid0]

[Zeke]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]That depends on how good you are at picturing utter indifference. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]My verdict at five chapters in? It's another Pratchett masterpeice. It is very very funny indeed. My favorite joke so far is the fact that the swords of the Nac Mac Feegles (the Wee Free Men of the title) glow blue in the presence of laywers.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I've finished it, and it's a very good ending indeed. We even get Nanny Ogg and Granny Weatherwax making cameos. Unfortunatly there weren't any reditions of 'The Hedgehog Song' or 'A Wizard's Staff Has A Knob On The End' (yes, you heard me), though I suppose it [i:post_uid0]is[/i:post_uid0] supposed to be a children's book...[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]You'll be fine - just make up a pattern, do it in at least thre different directions, through in a flying kick or two and put it to some music.

Oh, I'm a black belt in Tae Kwon Do by the way.

I want a lightsabre. Or failing that, a sword. And sword training. I tend to do more damage to myself than my opponent (although he had full leather armour and a helm, and I had my band uniform. I still won though, but I suspect the fight was rigged).[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Woo-woo! Pratchett has five of his books in the top 100 in the BBC's Big Read (http://www.bbc.co.uk/arts/bigread/). [i:post_uid0]Nightwatch[/i:post_uid0] was one of them, and apparently it was also the most recently published one to be voted for.[/color:post_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I just finished reading Night Watch. Kinda neat to see a map of Ankh Morpork and get an idea of where things are.[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]You mean you don't have the Ankh Morpork street map?

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]You mean you don't have the Ankh Morpork street map?[/quote:post_uid0]

I haven't got the Discworlde Mappe either. I have no idea where Genua, Lancre, Hersheba or Muntab are.

Well, I don't think anyone knows where Muntab is.

"Then there's the Muntab question."
"Where's Muntab?"
"Exactly."

They don't have Mein Kampf, either.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]The Lancre map is quite good - you get to see the exact location the the Place Where The Sun Doesn't Shine (and of course the Rock And A Hard Place).[/color:post_uid0]

What about Lancre town? I'm given to understand that it doesn't show up on maps of the country. It barely shows up on maps of the town.[/color:post_uid0]

Speak to me not of being too busy. You can not win this challenge. ;)

However, despite lack of free time, [i:post_uid0]Monty Python and the Holy Grail[/i:post_uid0] is one of my favorite movies and certainly worth what little spare time you have. The stuff they were quoting is from the opening credits... I'd explain in full so you could understand, but then it wouldn't be as funny if you ever saw it.[/color:post_uid0]

And my computer has been sick with a nervous breakdown for the past three days.

What is it about being a fiver overlord that inevitably involves no time at all being left over for fiverdom?

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I should tell you: calling me silly results in immediate amputation of nearest extremity.

I mean, like, fivist, fiver, fivedom (or equiv), etc, five-minute-specific terms that don't sound as stupid as "fiverdom" etc.

[Saxamaphone]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]OK, the Disneyland bit is a reference to a Superbowl a while back (I don't remember which one, or the team, or the player) but one of the players on the winning team was asked what he was going to do now that his team won, he responded: "I'm going to Disneyland!"
