baroque Rumble

[Chance]

Just in case anyone is looking for a lost Rumple, look no further. He is safe, showered, fed, and sitting on my living room floor here in Vienna tuning his guitar (among other less mentionable things). You may recall the dogs for all is well with the world.

Crickey!! Here he comes now...

Hi Chance
Hi Rumple
...
I am confused...Amsterdam...Vienna...?
is there, perhaps,as he himself suggests-(holy wombat goop)- more than one Rumple
I am glad at least one of them is washed and content and rolling on somebody's floor...

Oh dear, well its not the first time fictions been passed off as fact for self gratification. nor the first time imaginary friends have been invented by the lonely
As if there could be more than one rumple and as if credibility and chance share the same universe.
So the interesting question is probably best asked of the trustworthy.
Hey Rumple.. Ever been to chances place? This week?
........

[Barry]

sort of my take on the situation, as well, martin.

but i don't know chance nor his freind credibility so i thought it was fair to pose the question to both of chance and rumple, never expecting a response from a third quarter...

i wonder if i am now in for a serious berating from an outspoken yet not well thought out corner...

or perhaps i am opening myself up to a big can of gherkin twisties.

[martin ewen]

Yes well the credibility issue has long been an amusing in-joke.
Self important diatribes and transparent attempts to gain attention by any means fair or foul are not usually the only pivots from which a personality hangs, still even metaphorical bodies like the p.net membership need, for the sake of the group dynamic, people representitive of its various organs and chance has fulfilled the sphinkter role admirably for years and for this we are all sardonically grateful.
Having just gone to the profile page I also noticed that the website magicchance.com has expired/no longer exists.
So went off to Google, Magic chance/ chance escape artist/ chance performer... all came up empty,
I tried a direct quote from his own profile.. Chance..Entertainer (Magician, Escape Artist, Daredevil).
The top hit/ first return:
Nazi Movies: A Window into the Third Reich. (try it at home)
A strange unease... does this guy even exist... its spooky. Does anyone know his REAL name. Could one of his imaginary friends have overpowered his fickle mind and gone off in a new but equally tedious identity to Vienna ?
Perhaps Rumple has the answer?

Barry, Martin-

Over here in my tiny corner of the world my girlfriend was reading your letters just now and came away with the impression that you were both calling me a liar and asshole.

Now, while I know that this is absolutely not what the two of you meant, try as I might I just can't convince her of this truth.

Maybe you two guys would like to try your luck at this. After all, since all she did was open our home to a guest -- her first time welcoming another busker into our home no less -- she is having a very difficult time wondering what all the fuss is about.

And while you're both busy explaining your motives to her (her name is Katharina), maybe you would trouble yourselves to also describe what crow tastes like, non?

[Barry]

amusing, and still piquant

[martin ewen]

Still no word from rumple.
Chance (or whoever) if your hand can actually pass through your girlfriend then thats a bad sign.

GoOsE.....holy rolly polly girraff testacles on buckwheat toast.....what a pack of wobbly wombat wankers barry and martin are.....crickey!!!...crickey!!!......crickey!!!!!! ! signing off now GOOsE <img src="graemlins/jester.gif" border="0" alt="[jester]" />

[martin ewen]

Gosh.. still no word from rumple.....
(who as far as I know has never said a bad word about anyone ever- not in his nature)
Unless you have him gagged at your place chance while you crow over a friendship that doesn't exist I'd say at this point its game over.
Still in your topsy turvy world where nothing is quite what it seems. (puff of smoke- gasps)
Who can say
