News worthy??

And now for your regularly scheduled Phalian.

Don't forget that if you've lost track of The Phantom and Alien, you can look back though the...

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING

That duck painting is evil! I wish I'd never drawn it!
Anyway... It's dawned on me that I'll probably have difficulty in making and posting the Newspaper when the Downer Finland moot takes place. Hmmm. I can make some in advance, I suppose, and hire a lackey to post them for me - like I did when I was in hospital a few years back. Any other ideas, loyal readers?

I tried to open the door but it was Deadlock Sealed, so I opened the window instead. But there was just a face, and not a nice face at all. Perhaps Aulë was right...

No, no, no. That's the wrong door. The right one has "police box" on it. And it's bigger on the inside.

Also: Wigs are not cool. Baskets are cool. As are Stetsons. Fezes, no. Just no.

Somebody clearly has a grip on how to get into Hookbill's good books!

Everything the phantom wears is ipso facto cool. (With the possible exception of that silly green cap in the comic.)

It's a shame I threw my good books into a black hole, isn't it?

Hey, that hat is top of the line! State of the art! Crisp of the cusp! Good stuff!

Quite the contrary. One can never do too much to promote literacy among singularities! Why, rumour has it some of the poor things are so uncivilized they still go naked!

True. But does it remain cool once he takes it off? Or does an insufficient quantity of coolness rub off onto it to make the item itself remain cool?

Really?

Best throw a few copies of the Downer in there, too; how else would they know what really (doesn't - er, does! Does! Don't hurt me Mr. Hookbill . . .) goes on in the world?

Hmm. This is hard to answer without extensive experimental testing, but my working hypothesis would be that taking it off would be equivalent to taking it out of the fridge; the rest is entropy.

Sorry! I completely forgot to post last week's paper and P&A... Eeeek!

And now for your regularly scheduled Phalian.

Right, so you get another instalment in a few hours.
