Don't do this Calbert. These Tim, Paul, Ken, Rt.Rev, Jo creatures feed on

persecution & misrepresentation. Or ocassionally, a small brown earthworm
named Annabelle.
Anyway, as regular readers know I normally bypass any Tim, Paul, Ken,
Rt.Rev, Jo infected threads as the belligerent & whining drongo bores the
thongs off me, but your comment here hit a switch. I've recently finished
reading the omnibus of Phillip Pullman's 'His Dark Materials' trilogy, a
publication that's measured not in pages but in kilos, and until I read
your Subject I hadn't thought of the similarities between Tim, Paul, Ken,
Rt.Rev, Jo and the Spectres of Citagazze. It's remarkable. Essentially,
these Spectres are earthbound, lightweight, transparent, destructive (the
world they live in has regressed alarmingly since their arrival) are unable
to communicate and suck the life-force out of adults. They don't actually
kill the humans, but they're don't leave them 'alive' in the sense that
we're familiar with. They leave something zombie-like. Or if you can't
relate to that, Kiwi-like. Anyway the moral is; leave these Tim, Paul, Ken,
Rt.Rev, Jo creatures in their own world and we'll all live happily ever
after. And get made into a Hollywood epic. With Carte Blanchett even.

in briz, wondering if they're filming this one in NZ as well. It'd
certainly make sense.
Amazing, Rob.
I've just been reading the same trilogy, and was struck by the
similarity between you and the Spectres.
Like you say, some people crave attention.
Perhaps that's why you continually and loudly draw everybody's
attention to your killfile, yet by the same token, always manage to
have your say by employing a variety of alter egos.
I'd grant you that you haven't used Rob Chapman or Nomen Nescio for a
while (shame you f**ked that one up by ticking the don't archive box,
eh. Just imagine the fun you could have had in the lounge room), but
there's a few others you currently use.
How pathetic is that
