It’s the beginning of the Return Of Team Us!
I’ll try to put as many cues as possible as I go, but if you think any of the characters for the next few months MIGHT be you? It’s you.
What does Mal sound like in your head? In mine, he’s got a very nasal, unusually deep voice for someone his size. Until he’s upset and on the phone, when his voice takes on a hysterical, hectoring, high pitch.
The title today comes from an entertaining exchange that Douglas Adams wrote between Zaphod Beeblebrox and Ford Prefect.
They were on a ship, diving into a sun. Zaphod asks how many escape pods there are, and Ford says, “None.”
Zaphod, his mind clearly elsewhere, says, as best as I can recall “None? Did you count them?”
To which Ford says, “Yes. Twice.”
They do escape death in a burning ship, though.
Cthula’s training style is probably a little loose, when compared to a professional trainer. Or when compared to a chimp with a flag and an airhorn. Or even when compared to a chimp who isn’t training anyone for anything.
Don’t you hate it when people are telling a story and they leave out the important bits at the beginning? Then the end of the story is all “Oh, yeah, we were in Germany at the time” or “Oh, no, she was dead before we got there, you see.” or “No, everyone was already naked. Didn’t I say that?”
This team might not be the most cohesive in the whole festival.
Or, y’know… might be some other team that’s incoherent.
The best laid plans of mice and men…
I think I’ve alluded to that old line before, haven’t I? It’s weird how many of our cast make plans that don’t…quite…work…out.
Might even be a… I dunno… a theme or something.
Yeah, Team Wukilar is back.
Mostly because I like to say, “Wukilar”. I can even do it in a sort of Don Knotts voice if I have a minute to get ready.
If you don’t recall when we had Team Wukilar at the last Fest or The Wukilar Song way before that, you have my deepest sympathies. Man, those were funny.
That, and the Wukilar Song cost me a whole day of work. I’m not a songwriter.
Oh! I wrote this, though-
