We Know It's True

How many linguists does it take to change a light bulb?
One, but he/she (politically correct) must consult the Oxford English Dictionary.

How many translators does it take to change a light bulb?

One, but he/she must first find out from which language this joke is translated.

How many literature people (if you have a different term for them, please say:))) does it take to change a light bulb?

Depends on what the writer wanted to say with that.

How many teachers does it take to change a light bulb?

One, but he/she must first check its knowledge about changing light bulbs.

Go, Harvest, Now!!!

Dear all,

Our secret informer, let's call her Berar M. to keep her anonymity, shared something with us...

Apparently, certain compilation of papers which are in fact chapters from the holy books written by St. Bugarski, St. Djordjevic, St. Ivir and St. Newmark, can be found in a far-away copying shack "Atrium"...Retrieve them for your own sake...

You know the procedure...

Vampires And Boogeymen

Hey y'all,

Remember what Randy preached about this very cool, old dude who wrote some cool, weird book about us, cool, crazy people???...Well...Moi, Your devoted High Emissary hired an archaeologist or two and dug up this holy book, peculiarly in a zipped form...How did that happen??? Beats me...

Anyway, click bellow to enter the world of mythology and somewhat different religion than ours...

Salt and cats, witches and bats

Devil and names, wacky are those games!

Don't Let The Bed-Bugs Bite and May The Boogies Be Without You:))))!!!

Could It Be????

Dear minions,

It finally happened...Your High Emissary received a gift from above...mortals called it The Internet, but I like to refer to it as The Communication Channel...or better - The Binding Thing...or simply  - The Force:)))

This, of course, means that now, dear martyrs, I am going to publish stuff a lot, lot, lot more...

Be prepareeeeed!!!!!
