As president of the newly formed
royal society for the prevention of cruelty to tinwhistles,
i would like to personally thank mitch for the kindness he showed to those poor howling generations :o , and for a ripping good yarn, its good to see the grog shop has served you well old mate :lol: :party:
Its wonderful that no whistles had to be put down. :boggle: and that bovine excrement is free and fun on your side of the ranges, :lol:
Well Done,
Regards
David

Great post Mitch!!

While reading I had tears running down my face from laughing so hard. My sweetie came to my door to find out what was so funny....after pointing to the computer and uttering some nonsense...with "whistle" being the only word he understood.....he just shook his head and let me "be".

Kudos from me....and another "Nicely done"!
:thumbsup:

I don't think this is a fun topic at all.
This is dangerous stuff Mitch!
Do you know nothing about relicism
and what future archaelogists may conclude
when they stumble upon Psycohazard's tomb?

Would you like Psychohazard to be pronounced
the pinnacle ritual instrument in the Blue Mts cult
of the Three Sisters?

Get a grip, man!

It's a strange thing how coffee and hyperventilation makes the world go round. Fortunately, my remaining liver cell has enough room to dodge these kind of things <nod>

True, and thank you :)

It's scary - he just picked up a bunch of sheet music I got from a banjo player and ripped through every tune with a different whistle - no warm-ups or practice - even the tunes that went down to low G. This is what happens when you're born in Ireland and played whistle since you were 5?? Ye Gods!! :boggle:

I've gotten used to this head-shaking thing - what does it mean, is it some kind of tic ? :-?

Never fear dear friend - I had thought of this! The secret place of interment is festooned with the nests of dormant funnelwebs - they will guard it for all eternity. And they hate being dug-up in the middle of a nap. By the time anyone gets fool anough to approach, the three sisters will be 3 lumps in a supermarket car park! As well, the concrete plug will be inscribed with the powerful ward of Psychohazardancy - a thing no mortal can bare to behold without becoming realy wierd - I should know, I have one here with me :) . And - If the worse should happen and a freak eathquake should dislodge the plug, destroy the ward, kill the spiders and crack the concrete thus reveling Psycho - I have taken the precaution of including Jerry Freeman's address on a piece of velum within the folds of tinfoil. That should do the trick! Moo

I think I would feel more comfortable
if you were to subject Psycho to a melting
heat cremation.

Epilogue:

The Quest is done.

The MaGen has been prepared to be gifted to a lucky winner in dfernandez' fantastic charity raffle. Well done Dfer!!

Yesterday, during a special ceremony, Psychohazard was intered within the Psycophagus in a concrete tomb at a secret location. Here's a pic showing the capstone, sealed with the ward of Psychohazardancy:

Stick is still hiding from public in his bunker behind a wall of goons after an embarasing snap was leaked to the press by paparazzi.

For full details and pictures of the final ceremony go to www.ozwhistles.com and click the "Stories" button.

What a lot of fun this has been!
"Moo"
All the best!

Very well done sir. I enjoyed the story very much.

The prize winners in the fundraiser for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer have been announced.

It's here where you can find where the Magen will find it's new home.

It's my opinion - highly regarded (and sometimes not) by me. Peace y'all.
