I can't believe I'm watching the 1983 election special on YouTube, I just love watching Maggie win, if only she was running next month.

What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

What's a tuba duel? It it something like duelling 'bones? But if that's the case, there's no winner, is it?

Or is it more like a game of memory which in order to win, you shoot the other player's instrument? In that case, I don't think either of us would do that, so once again, no winner.

Read this then!

Tim Schafer Goes To The Moon.

One day, a peanut went up to Tim Schafer and said "Go to the moon" it said.
"No." Said Tim Schafer.
"That is an option, but..." said the peanut, "We have your wife and kids!"
"Oh noes!" exclaimed Tim Schafer, "Now I must go!"
So Tim Schafer did. It was better than Tim Schafer expected it to be and everyone lived happily ever after.

Tim Schafe Goes to the Moon by Hammerite

A Review by stepurhan

A tale of bathos pathos, athos, porthos and aramis. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll juggle three apples and a chainsaw. A searing indictment of modern society and an intellect that will shine down through the ages.

The Writer's Desk: An In-Depth Documentary About Hammerite

Some select clips:

HAMMERITE: A good narrative has a beginning, a middle, and an end. A great narrative, on the other hand, has all of those things... but with topless Japanese ninja women.

--

EMMA WATSON: Hammerite's prose is masterful. I want to ask him out, because he's such a cool and attractive young fellow.

--

MICHAEL CAINE: Zulus! Zulus!
HAMMERITE: Do you fear them, or do you fear your father?

Games with a great narrative such as Hammerite vs. the Alien Spaceship are rare indeed and are destined to become classics.

Well I'm experiencing hot flushes so I guess all that will be over soon.
