Where did Spot go?

Post by devist8me »

I'm an old member but I tend to always check in from time to time.

Where is my old friend Spot? I see he hasn't even posted here in a few years :-(

Actually, that reminds me - Is the name 'Tyr' from the Nichin (sp?) character in the old Gene Roddenberry's "Andromeda" series by any chance?

I'm not sure actually. I think he told me once and it went right over my head :-)

Ancient? :lips:



Tyr/Spot must still be buried under boxes, he's very quiet at the moment.

We were actually being very sarcastic, taking the mickey, cracking jokes at the expense of Tyr/Spot.

I always think of 'Spot' as being the pet Dragon (?) in The Munsters, or as Data's pet Cat in Star Trek, TNG.

Thinking about the Star Trek connection, the one I mentioned earlier, Andromeda, in which the character 'Tyr' appears was also a creation of Gene Roddenberry's. Co-Incidence, hmmm...?

I think... the simplest move at this stage...

is to resurrect spot.

Týr was only ever a temporary stopgap import onto the site, he belongs elsewhere.

Besides, it's about time I rejoined the moderator group. Enough of this tomfoolery.

It might take me a day or two to find my avatar though.

Allowing myself to be pushed off my own board two years ago is, in retrospect, a fair indication that I was preoccupied with other matters. It's time I progressed.

I do hope nobody actually liked Týr, he wasn't ever intended to be pleasant, here or elsewhere. The only similarity he bore to spot was an ability to construct grammatical sentences.

Are we through being childish? (hmmm, maybe I shouldn't have used 'we'.......). Glad you're back in your big boy pants!

Doctor:

What is it she does now? Look how she rubs her hands.

Gentlewoman:

It is an accustom'd action with her, to seem thus

washing her hands. I have known her continue in this a quarter of

an hour.

Lady Macbeth:

Yet here's a spot.

Doctor:

Hark, she speaks. I will set down what comes from her, to

satisfy my remembrance the more strongly.

Lady Macbeth:

Out, damn'd spot! out, I say!—One; two: why, then

'tis time to do't.—Hell is murky.—Fie, my lord, fie, a soldier, and

afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our

pow'r to accompt?—Yet who would have thought the old man to

have had so much blood in him?

Clearly life priorities were going on. I've NEVER known you to be "pushed" into doing anything you didn't want to :-)
