Can we then give Malrubius to Sir Alec and Old Valeria to Dame Maggie? And is Sir Ralph still with us?--he could be memorable as the somewhat slimy Gurloes. And Sir Derek IS the Autarch--I could kick myself for overlooking him even as a momentary lapse. (The Brightest Stars in the Aristocratic Firmament Set This Epic Adventure Ablaze.) But fie on the foul felon who proposed Nicholas Cage as Silk. That's a terrible idea. Everybody loves Silk. Does everybody love Nick Cage? Does *anybody* love Nick Cage? I'm sure O'Leary will back me up when I put myself 100% behind Leo, Leo, Leo. -alga- --- ### Peter Stephenson *14 May 1998, 12:10 · follows Alice Turner* > "Alice Turner" wrote: > And is Sir Ralph > still with us?--he could be memorable as the somewhat slimy Gurloes. Alas not, so he'd better be Malrubius :-) That reminds me, I missed out two from my anti-list Malrubius: Leslie Nielsen Triskele: ALF > (The Brightest Stars in the Aristocratic Firmament Set This Epic Adventure > Ablaze.) Well, more sort of `knightly' rather than `aristocratic'. If Larry were still around, he could do a cameo of the Pancreator, say. Maybe you could hire a stately home for the House Absolute. Chatsworth would do. pws --- ### Peter Westlake *14 May 1998, 11:12 · follows Peter Stephenson* > At 07:43 1998-05-14 -0400, alga wrote: > But fie on the foul felon who proposed Nicholas Cage as Silk.

As for the Hitchhiker's Guide - but that's a Long Sun idea, and a very silly one too. I shall post it to Whorl instead. It's been rather quiet lately. -- Spectacled bear.
