What? You don't like being so bloody clever that nobody understands the way you think?

Oh cheer up. Don't we all know any work of art is always cleverer than its author? Welcome to the club!:)

What I meant was that even I do not understand my own logic. And as you said "If Hookbill's logic doesn't confuse you, chances are that you are Hookbill." What does that say about me? Am I not myself! OH GOD! IDENTITY CRISIS!

Thanks, Pitchwife, but I'm going outside now, and I may be some time... :p

That would explain things. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I got your point... but multiple personalities can be so much fun! (Or as my wife likes to say: "Who am I, and if so, how many?")

Anyway, have a nice walk!;):D

EDIT: x-ed with TGEW, and It certainly does.

I should think that journalists would actually understand their thoughts, since they're putting them in the public view, but what do I know about journalisms?


So, a thought that isn't really mine. The most loyal readers of the Downer (and all of the ones who helped with this one) are teenage girls. They are the ones who post most on this thread. It's rather mad.

If they really did, they probably wouldn't... So should we be grateful that they don't?

No, it's normal. Just means that Hookbill has become a regular pop star.:D

Good question. Something to ponder, it is.

Haha. That's quite entertaining to picture, actually. ;)

I smell squirrels!!

Better keep the chatter relevant. :)

Oh right. It was relevant, until I came in. :p


Only for some? It seemed to me that the entire financial centre of the Barrow-Downs is covered in custard. For some reason the only business that wasn't affected was the Downer Newspaper. Could you tell me why this is.

You might have noticed that the entire first page of the Dower was custard-stained. I would know; I have it hanging on my window to deter the vicious, kamikaze birds that fly into it on a regular basis. So far it is working, must be Tolkienator's hideous visage.


Thank you for your kinds word! I would love to say that I plan to continue the column but alas, I rather dislike writing. Which is probably why I don't post anymore than I do. But if you plead, well, I may change my mind. :p

P&A is BACK! After attacking Formy at the funeral, Mardinal comes in for the kill. Formy is still not sure why, though...

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING

The adventure reaches new heights of strangeness next week with the Phantom continuing his quest for the King Bus, Alien chasing John Fillis and Peter plotting his vengeance! Who will win out? Probably you!

Cardinal Blardinal is not. . . cool. Poor Blardianal, he's so misunderstood!

Probably? I always win out! :p

You're not supposed to win. I am!

A New age of News and shoes!

Big things are comming in P&A. Alien's King Bus adventures will get weirder. Peter's attempts to destroy his father will go strange and the phantom, well, he'll have troubles of his own...

Short news in a right-hand column?!?:eek: *world-view crumbles*
...
Is it just me, or does the BWH as quoted in the leading article sound suspiciously like Legate tonight?:D
...
And awww for Lottie! sally the Sleep Police clearly neglected her duty there!
But speaking of going to bed at a reasonable hour, ahem, well, yes, point taken. Good night!

:eek: Woah! The Downer actually reported something true! That did happen (only without the cookies) and the quote really was mine! :eek: Serious world-view crumblage (to steal a phrase from Pitchie).

I've always wanted a prehensile tail. Where did you get yours Glirdan?

Didn't I tell you that I was going to put it in the Downer? :smokin:

Thank you for posting The Downer, Hookbill! It was lovely. :)

Ahh! I missed two weeks! Poor Lottie

I'd just like to point out that I had nothing to do with that picture ending up in the Downer. (No, seriously, I wondered why it looked familiar for a moment.)

Didn't stop me from giggling though. ;)

Sorry guys, I completely forgot to post P&A yesterday. :(

Hope it was worth the extra wait.
On Monday there's an intruder at Bus Co. Can you guess who it is? Well, probably, yes.

In the meantime there are so many P&A episodes that you could start a thread for it in the quiz room. :D

Which reminds me that I have to check the archive thing to get up-to-date.

Are you suggesting that we should quiz our knowledge of Phantom and Alien? Great idea!

Lauri and I were discussing P and A amongst other things on the bus back to Tacoma yesterday and she made a remark about P and A that I said wasn't canon. The thought that P and A has canon now amuses me greatly.

We've got news! So we don't need 'facts'.

Thanks to Blind Guardian for the secondary story. It's always appreciated and keeps me in bread and jam for another week some how...

On Thursday there's a special guest! Squatter takes some time out from whatever it is he usually does (I think he steals milk from an orphanage for sick children) to have some crazy P&A adventures! But will Lommy let him get away with it? FIND OUT! Or don't. Whatever works for you...

Oh dear, I didn't know my wastebasket contained the Fluffy Duck of Doom! Perhaps that explains some of the strange noises we've been hearing from the kitchen area.... :D:

What exactly is that key I am holding for? Is it for the building of Rune's Quality Beef? :D Nice article, Guardie.

I wants to know evilology too!

I was simply discarding the real-meat-byproducts from my Bacon! I am very careful to make sure that no real-meat gets in. Nasty stuff, that. >.< It totally wasn't incriminating evidence...:Merisu:

Yeah! It was posted!

Me wants an evil box! Where can me gets one? *pulls out note pad* What part of the meat was in it? Why not throw it in your own can? *gets hit by bus* O...

What is it with all those ducks all of a sudden?:D

I think someone was plannng a wedding and released the ducks to soon. Oh no wait that's doves. Iunno ask Rune maybe they're secretly trained to torment Lottie and got of control!


Yeah...I'm out of ideas. Ask alien he knows.

It's Phalian time!

On Monday we'll see how Alien's plans for catching that John Fillis work out. Will the King Bus really help him achieve his goal?

Is it just me, or has Phantom and Alien got a lot more bloody recently?

It's just you. You're getting more bloody. :p

Oh no! :eek: When did this happen?

EDIT: Dang it, Hookbill! Now that I did something away from the computer today I have mysterious orange/red colouring all over my legs and it looks like dried blood. :( How did you do that?

Thanks to Blind Guardian for the secondary story, once again!

On Thursday, there's a bit of a confrontation between Peter and Philip! Who will win? Will one of them die... Well, probably...

Favorite part:

"BRIDGE OUT: Gone for coffee"!! Love it!! :D <3

I have problems with the second story! Shamelessly plugging your own business, Blind Guardian! How could you? :p

You'd think that the bridge would be out to tea instead.

It was *fake* beef. Why does no one ever remember the *fake* part? I would never be caught dead (:p) touching *real* meat! :eek:

Also, :mad: .
