Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 If it was, it would have to be a Mexican town. Sara-bande (add accents at will). But, it still sounds like some sort of weapon. "Disciple, you have travelled far, worked hard, and now, it is time for you to learn the skills of the legendary Sarabande." "Gosh Sensai!" "Yes, the SarAbande is the semi-mythical combat weapon first built by Gohan, and was used to defeat Emperor Ryu in honourable combat. Only one disciple a generation is taught the skills of the sarAbande, and now it is time for this wealy ord man to pass the gift on to his chosen student" No self respecting warrior would use the word 'Gosh' surely? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbl Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 "When you have snatched the pebble from my hand, you may learn the ways of the sarabande, Grasshopper Zurich" Question is, what would steve rather play, a mythical fighting weapon, or an isolated western town? And could he do it with a whoosh stick? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbl Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 No self respecting warrior would use the word 'Gosh' surely? It was the second thing that came to mind. The Gray Ghosts first thought was "jinkies", but decided that wasn't macho or warrior like enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGG Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture? It may not have the most fantastic basslines, but it has cannons in it. Imagine playing the cannon in an orchestra! Would smack f**k out of a triangle! The Gray Ghost appreciates that this doesn't help you at all, he just thinks cannons are cool. sorry. "Now, Steve, when I give the signal, you have to prod the hungry uncaged tiger in b-sharp. After that, you need to follow that with panther yowls, and then finish with the whoosh tubes." "The road to Sarabande is plagued with bandits, you will surely never make it across the canyon." Would they not even make it through the canon? Question is, what would steve rather play, a mythical fighting weapon, or an isolated western town? And could he do it with a whoosh stick? Ok. Not whoosh tubes or whoosh stick. It's actually called a rainmaker. My kids have various versions of them in their musical instrument box in the playroom! Oh, and Steve lives just opposite us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gosh was a good choice in comparison. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam_Wee Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I'm so bored. There is nothing decent on TV either. I suppose it's just another hour or so till the Man City game is on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugster Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Last night when getting something out of the fridge, yes it was a beer, I knocked the number on the thing to 2. Then I couldn't remember if lower was colder, or higher was colder, so, presuming I'd knocked it down the way, I moved it to 5 to check. Then I forgot, now when I went in, the beer is frozen. I should really just have moved it to 3, but I like the stuff cold. Not as cold as 5, obviously. That's what the freezer is for. Now I need to wait for a beer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I went from being one of the better players in the group of guys we play football with to being the worst player tonight when I got a game with some new guys. Felt quite humiliated at the end of the night but it was good to have a challenge for once, even if I did feel like crap coming off at the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Cuddy Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 While frying my egg, I made Adam noodles. They were both ready at the same time, so while I was taking the egg out of the pan, Adam took the noodles off the stove and managed to place the pan on my hand, the fandangle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
