LIANDLE ALERT LIANDLE ALERT
Posted by Uma, 14:39, 5th February 2004:
 
Yeah tom... but Henry and June made up for it.
Posted by friday, 14:40, 5th February 2004:
 
ad - lol
Posted by Abe Frohman, 14:40, 5th February 2004:
 
Well spotted O angel of delight.
Posted by friday, 14:42, 5th February 2004:
 
Uma - do you know Liandle?
Posted by Uma, 14:46, 5th February 2004:
 
Who's Liandle?
Posted by angeldelight, 14:51, 5th February 2004:
 
EXACTLY!!
Posted by Sul, 14:51, 5th February 2004:
 
First you tell us how you came to know about iamcal?
Posted by Uma, 14:52, 5th February 2004:
 
Hello Sul. There's an email going around here.
Posted by angeldelight, 14:53, 5th February 2004:
 
she shoots, she scores!
Posted by Rosie, 14:54, 5th February 2004:
 
uh-oh!
Posted by Abe Frohman, 14:55, 5th February 2004:
 
If only there was someone with the power to ban them.
Posted by Uma, 14:56, 5th February 2004:
 
I'm not following this very well. Can someone tell me what's going on please?
Posted by angeldelight, 14:57, 5th February 2004:
 
vic - she-ra??
Posted by Abe Frohman, 14:58, 5th February 2004:
 
Nah, ban them, not ponce around as a feminist friendly He-man rip off.
Posted by angeldelight, 14:58, 5th February 2004:

ciao

Posted by angeldelight, 14:59, 5th February 2004:
 
oi. she-ra rocked.
not as good as batfink though
Posted by Rosie, 15:00, 5th February 2004:
 
Maybe Uma is real.

Maybe its not Liandle.



Maybe...
Posted by Abe Frohman, 15:01, 5th February 2004:
 
Pah, all of South Africa should be punished for his/her/its crimes.

And batfink was great.
Posted by friday, 15:02, 5th February 2004:
 
come on - give her a chance! we will soon find out if it is the mysterious Liandle!
Posted by angeldelight, 15:02, 5th February 2004:
 
ahh but is it worth the risk rosie??
Posted by cal, 15:03, 5th February 2004:
 
she seems nice enough to me
Posted by Uma, 15:04, 5th February 2004:
 
What did liandle do?
Posted by cal, 15:04, 5th February 2004:
 
i think banning a whole country because of the behavoir of one individual is a bit, err, american ;)
Posted by Uma, 15:05, 5th February 2004:
 
Thanks cal! Some support! Thank Heavens! Has one of my countrymen made a boob of himself?
Posted by Abe Frohman, 15:07, 5th February 2004:
 
Maybe it is a bit extreme. How about we take sanctions against them and stop sporting teams visiting them, ban them from international tournaments, get simple minds to write songs about them. that kind of thing.

Maybe Eddy Grant would help.
Posted by Rosie, 15:07, 5th February 2004:
 
Liandle, Uma, was a great big annoying fibber.
Posted by Uma, 15:12, 5th February 2004:
 
Abe, I don't think I could survive another dose of those. (sanctions I mean). You're not a SA fan, then? Is it just because of the laindle person or in general? Rosie, I have only been looking around here this morning...I haven't read that many threads yet...
Posted by Uma, 15:48, 5th February 2004:
 
The threads are very amusing...I like that one about the hoax "do not show him your c*ck. He only want to see your c*ck" Ha Ha Ha Ha!!! Very good.
Posted by Uma, 15:49, 5th February 2004:
 
***heh heh. chuckle chuckle*
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 16:04, 5th February 2004:
 
Oh my god. Those last two posts were the coolest ever!

Posted by Uma, 16:11, 5th February 2004:
 
Gee thanks...I er...think?
Posted by Uma, 16:20, 5th February 2004:
 
*wracks brain to think of something interesting to say*
Posted by Uma, 16:22, 5th February 2004:
 
One of my favourite movies was Henry and June. Anybody read any of Anais Nin's books?
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 16:22, 5th February 2004:
 
What's the largest animal you would kill in self defense?
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 16:24, 5th February 2004:
 
Yeah, I read Delta of Venus.

Now that's quite a cheeky book, indeed.
Posted by Uma, 16:25, 5th February 2004:
 
Oops, look like we posted at the same time there, Doctor Lucid...now it reads really funny...

that's a weird question? I would have to say spider...yeah spider *screams*
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 16:31, 5th February 2004:
 
What if you were attacked by something bigger?
Posted by Uma, 16:33, 5th February 2004:
 
I would do my best to defend myself against anything that threatened my life. Obviously? Wouldn't you?
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 16:40, 5th February 2004:
 
Well, it depends.

With some particularly noble animals, it might be wise to lay your life down before them.

Isn't this fun!

How many shirts have you got?
Posted by Uma, 16:46, 5th February 2004:
 
Alas, shirts I'm afraid I have none. They all got shredded by the Sabre-tooth that attacked me while I was on safari in India.
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 16:52, 5th February 2004:
 
Heck!
Posted by cal, 16:53, 5th February 2004:
 
but obviously you didn;t kill it in defense, right?
Posted by Uma, 17:01, 5th February 2004:
 
It was hard not to. It had my throat in it's jaws!
Posted by Brock, 17:03, 5th February 2004:
 
I take it you're knocking on a bit, then. What with Sabre tooth tiger encounters and all that.

I suppose after being alive for a million years or so, a spider would be all you can swat in your advanced years. Fair enough, I suppose.
Posted by Uma, 17:09, 5th February 2004:
 
Hello Brock. Yeah, teasing Doctor Lucid back a bit. Asking me about shirts! I never! You calling me old? *smack*
Posted by tommorris, 17:53, 5th February 2004:
 
iamcal: We insult old people.
Posted by Brock, 18:22, 5th February 2004:
 
You were the one that brought up the Sabre Tooth Tiger, not me...
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 19:37, 5th February 2004:
 
Shirts? Old? What?
Posted by Brock, 19:42, 5th February 2004:
 
Jumpers for goal posts?
Posted by Uma, 10:19, 6th February 2004:
 
Anyone not working their arses off free to talk to me today? I'm bored. friday? Rosie? Brock? Abe? Lucid? I'm falling asleep at my desk. My boss is starting to notice. Zzzzzzzz
Posted by Uma, 10:20, 6th February 2004:
 
*snork* *mumble* *zzzzz*
Posted by Uma, 10:21, 6th February 2004:
 
*turns*
*grunt*

*whistles through nose*

*sawing down trees now* SNNNOOOORK. Wheeee!
SNOOORK. Wheeeee.

*puts sign on chest* "If you should happen past, wake me and talk to me! thankyou."
Posted by Abe Frohman, 10:29, 6th February 2004:
 
Hurray, It's Liandle. Jesus Fucking Christ.
Posted by Rosie, 10:30, 6th February 2004:
 
Hello - I'm here. Work is busy today and I've got to look like I'm doing some work.

:(

I've had enough already!
Posted by Uma, 10:31, 6th February 2004:
 
Hi Rosie! Thank heavens...how are ya going? I am also sick of work. Abe, why do you keep calling me Liandle?
Posted by Rosie, 10:39, 6th February 2004:
 
I'm ok. Busy. Tired.
Posted by Uma, 10:42, 6th February 2004:
 
What do you do Rosie?
Posted by Rosie, 10:44, 6th February 2004:
 
sell headsets.


and stalk Vic.
Posted by Uma, 10:48, 6th February 2004:
 
Stalk Vic? Who's that?

Oh well, at least it's Friday! Yay! Got any special plans? I'm just going to see a movie or somthing, nothing too strenuous!
Posted by Rosie, 10:50, 6th February 2004:
 
sorry - i mean Abe.

What do you do for a living then?
Posted by Uma, 10:52, 6th February 2004:
 
I work for an auditing/accounting/financial management firm. Hence the snoring!
Posted by Rosie, 10:56, 6th February 2004:
 
!LOL!

what time is it where you are?
Posted by Uma, 10:57, 6th February 2004:
 
We are two hours ahead of you. It's 12:58 here...my lunch hour.
Posted by Rosie, 10:59, 6th February 2004:
 
Lucky you!

Whats for lunch?
Posted by Uma, 11:05, 6th February 2004:
 
I had a toasted cheese, you? Speaking of auditors, there was a little insert in our local paper the other day about a 60 year-old auditor who had passed away at his desk, had been dead for two days and people he worked with thought he was just poring over his documents!
Posted by Rosie, 11:17, 6th February 2004:
 
LOL! thats quite creepy actually!

I'm on the special K diet at the moment as I want to get down to a size 8 again! So I'm having a bowl of cereal. Tasty, eh?
Posted by Uma, 11:21, 6th February 2004:
 
Eeuw...Rosie...sympathies. Diets SUCK. Just looked at your profile and I really don't think you need to loose any weight. Why do you want to be a size 8 when you look perfectly good the way you are? Do you go to gym, Rosie?
Posted by Rosie, 11:30, 6th February 2004:
 
I've put on a bit of weight since that photo was taken what with xmas and everything!
Posted by Uma, 11:33, 6th February 2004:
 
Yeah, know the feeling. Better to excercise it off than diet, though I think. (Just my humble opinion)
Posted by Rosie, 11:42, 6th February 2004:
 
yeah - but its cheaper to buy a box of cereal than to join a gym.
Posted by Uma, 11:43, 6th February 2004:
 
LOL! I guess so!!!!! How much do you guys pay a month for membership?
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 11:58, 6th February 2004:
 
Ello all...what a shitty day it is today.
Posted by Uma, 12:01, 6th February 2004:
 
Hello Foghorn. Haven't seen you around yet. I'm new. Why a shitty day?
Posted by Rosie, 12:06, 6th February 2004:
 
Did you meet up with Sul and Vic in the end?
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 12:09, 6th February 2004:
 
No Rosie, I didnt have acces to a PC yesterday so i couldnt get a hold of them. :o(

Hi Uma, it is hitty because it is raining and my work is getting right on my tits. Oh, and welcome. (Liandle?)
Posted by Uma, 12:12, 6th February 2004:
 
Thanks. No, not Liandle. I think it must have been Liandle that started the email. It's been going around here. Abe also is convinced I am Liandle, just because I'm from S. africa. There are nearly fifty million people here!
Posted by Abe Frohman, 12:13, 6th February 2004:
 
(liandle)
Posted by Uma, 12:14, 6th February 2004:
 
There must be some way I can prove I'm not liandle?
Posted by Uma, 12:32, 6th February 2004:
 
Cal, do you think you could approve me? I would like to set up a vote. "Is Uma Liandle" at least then it will be democratic! heh heh heh
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 12:37, 6th February 2004:
 
Well we did find out that Liandle is a guy. So, show a pic of yourself to prove you are not. Easy.
Posted by WarHead, 13:03, 6th February 2004:
 
Nothing can be done to prove Uma and Liandle are not one and the same, nor what sex Liandle actually was.

It's a problem, innit, cos we now don't trust any new posters who write in a similar style to Liandle.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:05, 6th February 2004:
 
Exactly!

So, lets not let Liandle spoil our usual friendly welcome to new people.
Posted by cal, 13:05, 6th February 2004:
 
uma is approved

i think it would be prudent to stop being *quite* so mean to new members, unless they type in all caps or txt speak.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:07, 6th February 2004:
 
So we can be mean, but just not overly mean? ;o)
Posted by arsepuppy, 13:10, 6th February 2004:
 
Cal's right.
Posted by Abe Frohman, 13:13, 6th February 2004:
 
Only if foggy is also right, if foggy is wrong then cal is wrong.

If you follow me.
Posted by WarHead, 13:14, 6th February 2004:
 
Yup, carry on as normal then, and just flame, in the usual way, anyone who behaves like a twatting Troll.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:16, 6th February 2004:
 
We are both correct. ;o)
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:19, 6th February 2004:
 
does anyone know anything about Uma? Age? Description?
Posted by Brock, 13:25, 6th February 2004:
 
Uma might do. Why don't you ask her?

Just a thought.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:27, 6th February 2004:
 
Thats a great idea.

Uma, full description please.
Posted by Uma, 13:35, 6th February 2004:
 
Thanks Cal.

: )
Posted by Uma, 13:37, 6th February 2004:
 
I will put all my details on the profile...getting there...bit slow
: )
Posted by Brock, 13:37, 6th February 2004:
 
Is that it? That is all there is to you? Two eyes and a mouth?

Don't suppose colds bother you too much then. Or Hayfever.
Posted by Abe Frohman, 13:40, 6th February 2004:
 
At least she has a colon.

Ba-dum-tish.
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:43, 6th February 2004:
 
*tumble weed*
Posted by Abe Frohman, 13:46, 6th February 2004:
 
Fuck, I'm coming down with a case of 'the arsepuppies'
Posted by Brock, 13:51, 6th February 2004:
 
That could be taken a number of ways...
Posted by Brock, 13:51, 6th February 2004:
 
So to speak...
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:52, 6th February 2004:
 
Are you saying that arsepuppy could be taken a couple of ways?
Posted by Uma, 13:57, 6th February 2004:
 
Well, the uneventful and dull details of my life are now on my profile. Don't feel too sorry for me, will you?
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 13:58, 6th February 2004:
 
phew...thats a fair amount of info.
Posted by Uma, 14:06, 6th February 2004:
 
Sounds like a CV or a personal ad doesn't it? In any event...I shall try and get a photo scanned in as well. Bother!
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 14:14, 6th February 2004:
 
iamcal; mocmocmocmoc - "I think it must have been Liandle that started the email. It's been going around here"
Posted by cal, 14:22, 6th February 2004:
 
too long doc.

and not funny
Posted by Abe Frohman, 14:29, 6th February 2004:
 
I think you should put up my new MSN tag.

Chris - I ate all the 3.14s
Posted by Abe Frohman, 15:26, 6th February 2004:
 
Or not as the case may be.
Posted by Uma, 09:39, 7th February 2004:
 
I do apologise for not saying good evening properly yesterday. The IT chaps took the network down at 5pm. I was going to say a decent good evening to you all, but Gerald (a colleague) came to tell me all about his holiday in Miami. Shame, he's rather a sweet chap and I didn't have the heart to say, "Could I just say bye to my pals, the networks going down at 5" Anyway, so I am here at a postnet this morning saying Good Evening to you all. heh heh heh (and see you on Monday) Hope you're all having a good weekend.
: )
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 17:13, 7th February 2004:
 
Sorry. But cheers for the constructive criticism.

Uma, what was the name of that musical instrument that senses the movement of your hands in order to make noise?
Posted by cal, 04:04, 8th February 2004:
 
theramin
Posted by Doctor Lucid, 20:30, 8th February 2004:
 
Yeah, that's right!

Uma Theramin!
Posted by WarHead, 23:21, 8th February 2004:
 
I say, you chaps, you can have your very own theramin to play in the privacy of your own home.

www.bbc.co.uk/science/playground/theremi...
Posted by Uma, 06:57, 9th February 2004:
 
Well, this site is rather informative as I had never heard of a theramin before in my life!
Good Morning everyone
: )
Hello Cal : ) Hope your trip is going well so far...let us know what's happening!
