Qrter and Marlowe's Fireside Chat

*Lights Brer Pipe and offers Alex a glass of port*

Have a seat, dear boy, I have already lit kindling in the
fire... throw on a log if you want, it's soothing, as is
poking at the ashes... Yes, take that nice chair with the
carvings on it and the garnet velvet upholstery.

Now, down to business -- I have heard rumour that there are
lurking this messageboard, people of a singular stupidity
and fatuousness. What say you of this? Have you maychance
stumbled upon any of these imbeciles on your roams through
the lanes and fields of Xltronica? Here, allow me to light
it for you.

*takes a puff of his pipe*

Paul, only you could carry a thread like this off with
enough panache for it to avoid being a "nonsense topic".

Ah, here are our friends Rudster and Ceri, back from
blackberry picking. They must be tired after that, but I
expect they have energy left to bake us a lovely blackberry
tart. I'll just show them to the kitchens if you will excuse
me for a moment or two.

Well now! I must admit to an indefatigable predilection for
that most toothsome of I-talian delicacies, the Pepperoni
Pizza!

mm, mm, mm-

*sucking on pipe, while Paul tries to light his fire*

mm, mm, mm, yes.. I have heard much talk about this. It
worries me deeply, I can tell you. It is of the utmost
important for the integrity of this board to keep the
people, um, shall we say- In Their Right Place, if you catch
my drift, old boy, ha ha..

Oh darling, darling Paul, if you still have a drop of
that exquisite liqueur from Bordeaux that I gave you at your
New Years bash in Scotland, I'd be frightfully thankful.. oh
that would be lovely.

Back to the awful, TERRIBLE business at hand - I have made a
small huge list of possible contenders for said imbecility.
Please peruse it for a moment, while I select a log from
your exquisite range of kindling.

Yes, Paul, fortunately I am full of vim as my trip South
West to visit the Swanseaites was cut short by them burning
the candle at both end last night and hence calling off
sick. As I was feeling less than tip top myself this
morning, after imbibing no slight amount of liquor
yestereve, I declined an invitation to a weekend retreat to
a friend's cottage for the lit. festival at Hay-on-Wye.

Come now Alex, I know they are brash and bold in nature, but
some of them are all right chaps, deep down, under the bluff
and bluster.

Ah, I've always found the company of a Welshman to be
extremely gratifying - they are always so full of their
delightful anecdotes and homely remedies.

*sips port and pulls on his pipe*

Now, let me see this list....yes...yes...well she is
definately not imbecilic, but this Confederate swine
most certainly deserves the wearing of the Dunce cap. I say,
you've really chosen a gorgeous log for enflaming, look at
that deep orange flame emanating. I feel quite Religious
just looking it - excellent choice, Alex, perfect choice.

*pulls nose and takes another drag*

What is remarkable about my little tale is that it is all
utterly true! Hows about we have Marlowe's housekeep finsih
the lattice work on this tart and we join you fireside?

Oh do excuse me Paul, I was mesmerized by the
beautiful fire crackling on your lovely, big, fat
log.

Yes, concerning the list.. what about this one.. oh,
if you'll pardon me, I have to say this - I do really think
he is a a person of the most terrible sort. Oh and
that one thinks she can fool us all into thinking
she's a man- I mean, really. What a frightful bore.

our Chilean friend.

*chokes on a thick ball of smoke*

I say, how did this one get on the list? They are
simply the most chortlesome and enlightened individual to be
found meanding through the avenues and boulevards of
Xltronica! This must be rectified before there is a scandal
in the village! Mrs. Presley, the village gossip, will
besmirch this young man's reputation for sure if this list
is not kept strictly confidential!

My dear Hyak, it is of course, Mr. Spierts' right, as the
offended party, to choose the manner in which this dispute
shall be settled.

Knowing your predilection for the blade I imagine he will
choose for some other means of settling this. Should, of
course, he elect to engage in a duel at all...

choose to wage war against this obviously depraved

Oh my dear Paul, they may seem to be all fine and dandy, but
surely also you can see they are as thicks as two planks!

Pardon me, but we cannot allow people of such a nature to
keep bringing down the average intelligence of the board. It
just makes no sense and is bad for morale.

Gentlemen, gentlemen, this fireside is a place of the
intellect, of wit, of fine company, finer cognac's and bawdy
relocations of events that took place on foreign shores, in
state bedrooms and the digs at King Alfred's. We'll have no
blood spilt, only inferior wines and tears of laughter.

Dear Alex, you are right - I was being too lenient.
There must follow a general purge of the membership! I
propose a version of the great fox hunt that papa used to
host to such great acclaim! We should weed out the dullards
and the nitwitted among us, and set the hounds on them!

*Takes an excited, deep draw of his brer pipe*

By God, Yes! This must be done post haste! Let me don my
jodhpurs and felt hat and let us depart for a midnight hunt!
