James Baster and a Gun

[Anonymous]

If you had a gu would you shoot James Baster?

[James Baster]

Normally I wouldnt have posted this, but I found his typo funny because of a song on a LP I remmber from being a very young child. "I'm a gnu, how about you? I'm the sweetest Gnu in the zoo" and other random things.

So the question now becomes this: if you had a small furry animal, would you shoot me?

"A year ago last Thursday, I was walking through the zoo."

Flanders and Swann.

Is it that one James?

If I did have a gnu, I might well shoot you. The trick would be fitting it in the barrel (what with all the horns and thing.)

[monkeymadness]

Ahhh, sweet recollections of reading 'Truckers'.

"Thing, it says here that if we have a Gnu we can hijack the trucks..."

[Thackary]

Flanders and Swann - genius!

My favourite is the song about the W.I.



Would it be possible to train the gnu to shoot James? I have no idea about how willing gnus are to learn

"A year ago last Thursday, I was walking through the zoo."

Flanders and Swann.

Thats it! Does anyone hve a copy? I loved that song.

[Scunthorpe]

Yes James I do. In fact not only the song itself but the lyrics and the music too. Scream if you want copies.

When he says 'gu' you presume it's a typo for 'gnu'. I think it's probably for 'ug'.

Although, then it would be 'an ug', wouldn't it?

Shooting James, even with a gnu, seems a trifle harsh. I'm sure there are far more deserving targets of gnu violence.

*clears throught - cought, cought* ARRGHH!

[Scunthorpe]

Internet Editor killed in Freak Gnu Collision.

It would be interesting to see that one in the Saint

[James Baster]

Would be.

Anyone up for helping me fake my death for a coupld of weeks sometime next year to find out?

[Saint Sal]

As long as I can have the exclusive

[James Baster]

Well it wouldnt be up to me, would it? I'd be dead.

[Scunthorpe]

I'm sure we can find someone to dress up as a gnu for the occasion.

[JamieMalk]

If someone can provide the costume...

[Scunthorpe]

Why, are you offering?

[JamieMalk]

What right minded person would turn down
a gnu costume?

[The_Farwall]

Is that you claiming to be right minded, Jamie?

[Scunthorpe]

Has anyone actually seen a real live gnu, because otherwise how is Jamie going to make it?

Also how will we decide who gets to wear it and feign Baster's death? Perhaps a charity raffle at the Sinner begining of term party.

BYOG

Why not just get a gnu cheap off Ebay? Or is the prospect of watching Jamie making and wearing a gnu costume too tempting?
