What a conundrum! How would one go about repping Mr. Formendacil for his contribution?

Find a post he's done on this thread?

Or go around to his house and steal his gold, then post it back to him...

The only paper I will ever read is the one, the only, the Downer!

The only thing that would stop me is if I had to pay money for it. Then I wouldn't read any news!

If it's of any assistance, I'll be out of town all weekend, so my lack-of-gold should be relatively unguarded, other than the giant spiders.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Well, if you want to add to his reputation, the Downer is probably the last place you want to go

Reputation ain't always a good thing.

For example, Four Men To Kill (aka Four Men Do Gah!) has a reputation for being a person with intense dislike for sprouts*.

I would have thought that Formendacil would not lay up his gold where thieves may break through and steal--even such a thief as Bilbo, bearing riddles--so his spiders will be undisturbed whilst he is out of town.

No cheese induced dreams last night!

I am so happy!...well maybe not...

Black mail to the Editor

Beloved Friends (of Money and not me):

I can't help but notice that the article "Nothing is too big to be put on the Downs" says Hookbill is quite incorrect. While Sir Hookbill make have said so during his free time - in which case it is an offence to bring matters of the time free into public discussion - the Black Mail Historians, of which I am a proud representative, claim that there is actually no mention of a "Sir Hookbill" saying "Nothing is too big to be put on the Downs" or anything resembling "Nothing is too big to be put on the Downs" in any of Miss Black Jack Black in Black Mail Jack Mail's mother's personal diaries. It of course means that the Downer is under no authority to claim otherwise.

If you have any intentions of preserving your public image (which, if I were you, I'd renovate in any case), send the sum of two hundred (200) black rings to the address of the sender - he shall be needing them. If not, why don't fault me, I warned you!

Hookbill a manipulator? Never! He is the most wonderful wight living, and would never do such a thing! In fact, I think he's on his way to becoming the first journalistic saint. Mm...I like cheese........

Wait, he's the most wonderful wight living? And here I was thinking that Barrow-Wights were all dead...

But I agree with you, Hookbill is the most wonderful wight! And I did not write the article. I'm pretty sure Hookbill did...

Hookbill the Goomba · 07-13-2008, 05:03 PM

Extra special thanks and cakes to Formendacil for his excellent story on murdering Hobbits!

So, one hundred Phantom and Alien comics. You must all be sick of them by now...

Chainsaws and static! My goodness! Worst one ever*!

Oh no, we'll never be sick of Phantom and Alien. You're going to be doing these for the rest of your life...

Oh Dear...

There was talk of a P&A sing-song, but, due to one thing and another, it never happened. Maybe at Christmas. Until then...
