A Response to the LEP


After our post yesterday on predatory Nissans, we received a stern protest from the League of Extraordinary Pedestrians laying out conditions for allowing our electrons free passage through the blogosphere.

In response, I would point out that while I do have a stock of eggshell paper that I am utterly unable to account for, I am universally acknowledged to being a rather bloodless individual, I am hopeless at joined-up writing, I am only able to attend 35 and one half meetings of the LEP grand council if there is sufficient Guinness or cheap Chardonnay on hand at all times, I am terribly dismayed at the thought of 53 shivering bears, and Carl the Cattle Dog is indisposed because he has eaten all the chocolate.

As a consolation, Carl has agreed to send along one of his more successful attempts at self portraiture.

Even the UN Security Council couldn't get that much out of him.

  1. Don't even think about taking our pelts!

    Besides, I pawned mine so I could afford to buy a PS3. ¬_¬

  2. Dear Mr. Szondy,

    As our recent budget estimation has yeilded, we here at the Leauge of the Extraordinary Pedestrians are unable to allocate enough funds for aforementioned legal council, due to the fact that Leauge financial offices are based in Laramie, Wyoming; quite a distance for most of our members to travel and pay dues.

    Ergo, we are willing to offer a compromise:

    We here at the LEP are willing to accept your apology if and only if you drive us out to our guildhall in Laramie, and attend two lectured entitled:

    "The hokey pokey in traffic: it's NOT what its all about."

    and

    "Don't walk signals: the Hitler of the road."

    We are unable to offer any refreshments or spirits beyond the quality of Thunderbird wine.

    Your immediate cooperation is appreciated...and kinda necessary...its raining at this bus stop.

    Sincerely,
    Hyrum P. Maxwell
    President and Ayatollah
    Leauge of Extraordinary Pedestrians

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
