James Baster and a Gun

[Scunthorpe]

Why not start a gnu smuggling ring?

Actually the idea of Jamie making a gnu costume is too tempting.

I've found a cuddly gnu in Papa Growlers though...

[The_Farwall]

Do Gnus actually have on board flamethrowers or will Jamie get to decide where to put them himself?

[monkeymadness]

I don't think the average Gnu comes equipped with flamethrowers as standard. However, there is an arguement to be made that due to ecological pressures Gnus were forced to evolve and develop a better defensive system.

James could therefore be a third generation Gnu.

[Scunthorpe]

It is possible for Gnu's to have on board flamethrowers, if not so much owing to evolutionary necessity, but rather owing to the limited military bugets of some southern African military budgets: hence the close combate flame gnu, the stealth gnu for covert espionage missions and the recently introduced high altitude bombardment gnu, capable of deploying a 3 ton bomb payload from a height of up to 35,000 feet (it has strap on wings dont'cher know.)

I said, and I quote myself here, "If someone can provide the costume..." I ain't gonna be making no costume. I am prepared to ... modify... an existing one, but I'm allredy behind in my manufacturing schedule. OH and I will be to buisy revising for a while, honest...

There is no way that I'm having a gnu costume in my house. If you bunch of... people want to go about encouraging my flatmate to dress as a gnu you can damn well encourage him to dress as a gnu somewhere that isn't near my house. I'll get a reputation if people see gnus coming and going at all hours.

You can find a picture of a Gnu at www.probertencyclopaedia.com/ j/Gnu.jpg
(HOPEFULLY). This could aid in costume designs. But play nicely now!

[James Baster]

take out the space before the j and your set

[Gullable Fool]

Yeah, what's weird is that all I did was copy and paste it from the "Address" line, so I have no idea how it could have gotten the extra space. Anyway...that's life.

of a gnu can be found at: http://www.gnu.org/graphics/gnu-and-pen ... 00x276.jpg

Do with it what you will, all of you would-be gnu costume designers...

[James Baster]

I dont know, maybe we should change this. The prospect of bing killed by a penuin wearing what appear to be a leather jacket is far more bizarre than being killed by a gnu any day.

[Scunthorpe]

I stand by Gnu's to have the right to fake James James James Agnes Baster's death!

Dear God, did I just say that?

[Bonnie]

The gnu with human hands or
the penguin with a spazed out, psycho- homocidal- maniac look

I am glad that by starting this thread as a joke it has brought you all so much pleasure talking about gu's.

[The_Farwall]

This guy really has a problem with fitting the letters G, N & U into an intelligible word don't they? Gun = Gnu = Gu

[James Baster]

I thought we had just spent a long time establishing, with the aid of ictures, that guns wheren't equal to gnus?

[The_Farwall]

Perhaps I missed the point then. We did establish that Superman is a Penguin though, didn't we?

[James Baster]

Only while the train is standing in the station.

[Scunthorpe]

A Gnu is less concealable though

[Zen]

but the all important question is: do they like teacakes?
