Turns of AXT029 game in Apolyton PBEM Tournament

[Alinestra Covelia]

We have further endured a scandal in the top echelons of our peaceloving democratic government. The details are as yet sketchy, but they involve a certain Office, a certain Presidential politician, three Havana cigars simultaneously employed, and an intern.

When asked as to her motives or what she possibly had to gain, the intern merely replied

"OVAL" CLIENT, A RAISE.

Dammit. And I was just composing my reply. The lavatories anagram was a stroke of sheer brilliance on your part.

Double post. But I can use it to announce the shipment of 2108 to the Prophet.

Can't see to type with the tears of laughter - go to play golf and come back to some more great anagrams

turn turned to Misotu

(Oh, and with New Year fast approaching, remember:

ale cars inviolate

- or if you are in the presbyterian part of Spain:

Ole...Calvinist area)

[Googlie]

LOL - I'm speechless (well, not quite)

As in I recall a vote

but... we're not in Florida ...

ah well, I reason all active now

Turn to Misotu

(alas, vile reaction)

[RedFred]

To Alinestra.

Note to self: do not play Scrabble for money against these three.

Misotu, as far as your suggestion on making my name more anagram friendly, feel free to call me "Crypt Tryst".

I guess if you get a diplomatic victory Alpha Centauri is a game where u chair a planet.

Whoops! A bit of a hardmanagram there.

[Alinestra Covelia]

Turn AXT029 to Googlie.

Misotu, I kneel before you, clasping you to me and bending my head in show of mute respect. For days I've been probing, palpating, and smacking my lips in my eagerness to come up with that elusive "clitoral" arrangement that was (infuriatingly!) almost on the tip of my tongue, but it took a woman of greater experience and more articulate oratory expertise to finally get her hand in, and point my ministrations in the right direction, etc. etc.

*dodges hurled vase*

Next in line we'll have a Bollywood feature about a singing Indian wrap, or AN ELITE VOCAL SARI. Or probably some over-hyped Nintendo game wherein you find A CO-STAR: EVIL ALIEN. Much more interesting is the Channel 5 documentary of a disturbed female: I, LAARA, INSECT LOVE, or the scathing political satire, NATO - A VILE ARSE-LIC. Perhaps we could call in the famous heterogendric Iguana Twins who will perform their family routine of high-quality, rated AA, LIVE ORAL INCEST?

Or for the ladies we could have a mastecticure. This is rather like a manicure or a pedicure, except that the body parts that the good doctor "looks after" are further north and not far from the lungs. I've tried it and can heartily recommend the CLEAN AREOLA VISIT.

*waits expectantly for applause*

*gets none*

*slopes off dejected*

Well, back to my old night job I guess.

Goodbye Apolyton. Now I CLEAN LAVATORIES.

[Googlie]

mute with admiration

2109 to Misotu

Googlie

(or in the persona of my Spartan Chronicles character,

Scott 'Googlie' Allardyce

[Misotu]

LOL. I'm completely overwhelmed and totally stuck for an anagram. Plus, for some reason, my family expects me to spend time with them on New Year's Eve. They have no sense of priorities

All the best in the new millenium gang

(Oh yeah ... turn sent to the Cryptic Trysting One. Most helpful. Thanks. )

[RedFred]

A happy new millenium to all, and a .sav to Alinestra.

[Alinestra Covelia]

Okay, the turn has been sent to Googlie.

I'm sitting at my PC in my rented student house, about 3 miles from my university, and it is the millennium.

In about two minutes, give or take a few seconds, it will be a new year.

This time next year, I won't be in this house or possibly even country.

This time next decade, I won't be likely ever to have a private New Year to myself, perhaps due to family concerns.

This time next century, there is nothing the doctors can do that would likely make me survive in flesh.

And by this time next millennium, there is nothing I can do that would likely allow the human race to commemorate my name, and allow me to survive in print.

So, I leave you with a small and clear little anagram that struck me, as I looked out the window and saw the shallow, windblown snows that surround me here in Durham.

Ice-still...

...A nova era.

[Googlie]

O, must I?

I guess so

2110 to Misotu

(And if we are teetotal this new year - or in that part of Spain....

all raise ovaltine

especially to preferred PHD



[This message has been edited by Googlie (edited December 31, 2000).]

[Googlie]

And I echo RedFred's sentiments - wishing you all:

A Happy New Millennium.

-and let's hope our turns move faster in 2001......

ennui when I play MP, mal....

[Misotu]

Well, this is a bad start to the new, fast-moving millenium. Sorry for the delay. For reasons which seemed pressing at the time but now elude me, I decided to stay up and see the dawn on 1 Jan. So no turns played at all yesterday

2110 is finally off to RedFred (not even time for an anagram, hotmail is refusing to accept more email for me until I free up some space!)

[RedFred]

2AC. Sorry about the elephant-sized file, btw. My temporary license ran out on my zip utility so I used the other one which works only as a unzip utility for me. I expect to be back to normal by tomorrow.

The temp license must have been 30 days of use rather than 30 consecutive days. I'll shell out the $20 for the permanent version. Cheap so-and-so that I am I actually tried uninstalling it and then reinstalling it to see if I'd get another free month.
