Every anniversary of the HB, we should all send Jutta a nice, flakey croissant, just to show her how grateful we are to her.
A real one would get stale and crushed, so it would have to be a plush one, or delivered by a bakery near Jutta.

No no no no no no no no! Now you gave me the urge to send [jutta] a fishbone! |
|
|
I find that even the nicest croissant has a shelf life of about 12 hours. They get stale amazingly fast. |
|
|
What [half]? you sent [jutta] a fishbone? |
|
|
[bungston], why not send a halfbaked quassant? To be put in the oven when needed. |
|
|
Not neccessarily a real croissant. I know they'd get crushed and stale. I meant a plush one, or get one delivered by a bakery near Jutta. |
|
|
(Months go by. [jutta], having neglected her P.O. Box for quite a while, wonders what the strange moldy scent is down at her local post office...) |
|
|
I sent her some doughnuts (and possibly coffee?) a while
ago. |
|
|
Rumor has it that she is already the holder of one of the world's largest collection of halfbakery themed plush half-croissants. |
|
|
I expect any day now that she'll announce her retirement, funded by the sale of the collection that skyrocketed in value after the manufacturer went out of business. |
|
|
Usually the price soars after the artist dies. |
|
|
I'll see what I can do, [bristolz]. |

|
Odd string of coincidences: |
|
|
Just searched for Halfbakery Anniversary to find out when it is and found "5 year anniversary" by the absent [thumbwax], just after I was trying to remember one of his ideas. |
|
|
Found out that the Halfbakery was born the day after I was (although in a different year). |
|
|
Found out that my Halfbirthday is EXACTLY THE SAME as the Halfbakery's own birthday, the day after my real birthday. |
|
|
This is highly auspicious, I must go and consult my astropsychologist. |
|
|
//5 year anniversary// Isn't this something of a tautology? Fifth anniversary would suffice. |
|
|
wag, or your astro turf accountant to see if there a nag running today with a likely name. |
|
|
The runes said: "Horses will run away with your wordly goods." |
|
|
I ran a quick eye through the racecards and all I could come up with is Forest Green (bless him) |
|
|
[wagster] I misread that as "Horses will run away with your godly words". Some would argue that that was appropriate too. |
|
|
Fortunately, they couldn't drag me *to* them. |
|
|
//godly words// are you sure this prediction wsn't meant for the pope? Plenty of room in the Vatican to hide a couple of horses. They could race them round St Peters when all the tourists have gone home. |
|
|
[wagster] just checking... you're not actually the pope, are you? |
