Terracotta Army

[Mince]

I've a feeling Roger can't actually see the cartoon in question for some technical reason beyond me.

It's more likely some technical reason beyond Roger.

That's the gag I saw but it's neither by Matt or about the terracotta army. Me confused.

And I know that "or" was a typo, before you end up in the soup with Mince (see what I did there?).

Why does everyone think of me as a grammar curmudgeon?

By the way, Tarquin, that should have ended: ... in the soup with Mince. (See what I did there?)

Because you are a curmudgeon, grammatically or otherwise!

TTTHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRPPPPP!!!

No 

In the soup with Mince...mince soup..."or" typo...nor...nor mince soup...play on words with misspelling thrown in...Peter will get it.

I've lost the will to live.

Roger - there should be TWO gags appear on that page. I'm concerned if you're not seeing them both!

I need to ask people with PC's whether the Google strip of adverts shows on the front page too. My version of Internet Explorer doesn't show them for some reason, but it's an old version. They stopped updating it for Macs a few years ago when Apple brought out their own integrated Safari browser. I prefer Firefox by the way. The Google ads show in both those browsers.

The second cartoon, which Roger cannot see, is from a Google widget, so it maybe is that I.E. won't show anything from Google.

I have the 1995 issue of the National Geographic, that shows the terra-cotta army, in my bathroom in the magazine stack. Small world eh?

[Roger Kettle]

I checked again, Nige, but nope----I can only see the rhino gag. I'm wearing slippers. Could this be affecting my Google widget?

Peepsie, I'm using Firefox on my laptop, and I also have IE 6.0 as a back up (and on the few occasions I've used it in the past year, it really has got my back up...see what I did th--- never mind). The Google ads appear in both.

It must be a small world if your bathroom is in the magazine stack.

Are they tartan slippers, Roger - that's crucial? Also, do you have stick-it memos covering large parts of your screen?

You're relentless and unforgiving, Mincey. That isn't intended as a compliment, though no doubt you'll take it as one.

[The Peepmaster]

I'm amazed the terracotta army was (a) in her bathroom, and (b) there was a picture of it in a magazine.

[Mince]

Yes, I must admit that I am feeling generous today.

I would have done that gag if she had not used parenthetic commas. Notice that, unlike Peepmaster, I do show some restraint.
