  He's not that nice, really.  Sure, we'd all like to be him in
'Grosse Pointe Blank' but lets face it, really he's a bit of a muppet.

away from me evil one - with your hoard of odious puns and your swathe of
brightly highlighted notes. Work no more in this one beautiful place lest
your eyes should turn back from the horror... I need to get out more I
know, but I find it so difficult to meet new people

Hello, is that the American airforce?
I'd like to order a small tactical bomb strike. Just take out the Level
three spod room in the Library.
You don't kill people for bad puns?
Um, it was an Iraqi what done it.
Oh good go ahead anytime you like and try not to hit any embassies.

  Cunning - you know he'll have moved out of the library, so you
target it there, knowing they'll miss...

  I was just testing...  I'm beginning to think they just toss a coin

  Why bad?  I was just wondering if it checked the whole post for
Durham addresses, to see if they were replies to DUrham users.  It
would be a stupid thing to do, and they don't, so far as I can see.

  That would be bad.

  Hmm... kieron.bridges@durham.ac.uk has it's possibilities, though.

Trying and only partially failing.  On the one hand, I've written fifteen
hundred words on the Somertone protesters and the fallout from the battle
of Boroughbridge.  On the other hand I've rearranged the kitchen, made an
interesting compilation tape, been shopping twice, watched half of Wild
Palms, and spent some time staring at the carpet.  All while working on my
plans for world domination.

Pah!  I am a light of virtue and righteousness compared withour glorious

And then there's Trev.
