Hey, TGHC, congratulation on your promotion to spam assassin!

Now, what do I have to do to earn the title of "Borderline Psychotic Lecturer"?

Why Thankee kindly sir, but it's old news, you were becalmed and diving for anchors etc.

Oh Yeah, borderline.......... my arse

Psychotic?

There may be stiff competition for that rank around here.

Don't know if it's possible to put two specific (linked) ads onto both sides of the same board, but if so then there's got to be a role for Boorma-Shave ads:

You can't win love
with homing missiles...

...use Boorma-Shave
on those spacer's brissiles!

(No decent graphics package to hand -- maybe see what I can do at a later date...)

I look forward to it (and there's no problem with putting two linked ads on the same Terascreen).

Beg and badger Ahruman until he acquiesces.

As you yourself should have noticed by now, that’s not an entirely effective strategy. ;-)

True, but I still bow to your immense wit and magnanimity.

Wanted poster. Here's a scofflaw that won't be getting away.

@Disembodied: Looks good

I've been looking for a fitting company and slogan for an ad featuring ET for a while now, so I hope that it's ok that I went ahead and used your idea



Unfortunately your Bender ad didn't resize very well to the required 256x128 format.



Please re-release if possible


It may be as long as until 200 ads are in, before those latest ads (Space Rickshaw and forward) are released in the OXP = thirty-something to go!

I take my hat off to your creative genius Dr Nil.

Every time I launch from a space station I have to stop and check out the ads on the navigation beacon. It cheers me up no end as I set off on a journey.

...come and work at City College Norwich...

I thought that was a prequisite to get a job there in the first place

Well, i've got a title. A vexing one, as it is.... I don't just tote the sword, I wield it.
As for "nut-job", even if it's conceptually true, the wording is kind of debasing...

How's the pay? Does the PTA bitch too much when the lecturers cut students?
I, of course, don't mean simply reducing their grades, or even expelling them; I mean "cutting" as in severing too sharp tongues with an even sharper sword, ot the said tongues' owners having an acute case of bissection...
