Aha! Finding a fellow Canadian, I down our traditional shot-glass of maple syrup, and dance our Countrie's national "Dog-sled Shuffle". So using my turn, I curl up in my Igloo, reading a book borrowed from the Improbable Island Public Library.

I simply step sideways out of the loop and continue on with a forehand double-barrel Macheath grip to find myself on Ebenezer's and Escemfer's Houseboat! I hit to 16, and stand on my head.

My turn, is it? Oh, well then.

I suppose i -could- go for a Muid-zen theorem and strike out the Fourth House, thusly knighting my knotted knave, and use the free move such aquired to backsidle into the Barrikade.

(A move, if you will recall, not unlike that of Sir Winghamptroytonting at the dodecacentennial tournament of Salzburgh in '65. Of course, it was, at the time banned as per the Granddukes Seventy-First Variety introduced mere months before the event, and the resulting shuctribble-per-gullaf... well, we all know how thát ended...)

Cousjava pulls up behind, and being unable to go forward through the barricade ends up in the Nidd, and forfeits his next three goes.

... and I'm still at Sloth's Kitchen, damn it all. Witherington's Loop, curse you!

I get to pick up three red tokens, though, on account of it being Tuesday.

I'll play Kensington's Feint, along with the 3 of spades, and do the curly shuffle over to empty plot reserved for Combat Magician Komppa.
Unfortunately, I lose my next 38 turns determining precisely which plot that is...

But G, doesn't that mean that, as long as you don't open your eyes, the Quantum Kommpa Principle allows you to be in all of them at once?

My three misses are up, now I can play Hugo's 2nd Stratagem which means I can move across consecutive rows to NewHome.

Say, you're right! I forgot about the expurgated edition of subsection 6. So, as long as I don't know my current speed, I can tunnel through the electron barrier to The Party Zone. Good show!

Under the Longfellow Convention, I have to follow the vaccuum left by g_rock, but by Tiddlemarsh's Amendment of 1967, I can use the Improbable Island Land Registry to twist anticlockwise, and then play a First Class Pass to end up in the Timepiece!

Traveler's Notice:

All inundated funiculars on the northern routes have been temporarilly defenestrated to allow the consensual encounters to be fully exploited.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

I take advantage of the temporary defenestration to ride a falling funicular up 'round CC404. A quick judicious use of my "Get Out of the Factory Free" card lands me in the Ridiculously Overengineered Barbetraption. However I lose 3 turns trying to figure out how to cook a steak on it.


Isn't sanity just a one-trick pony anyway? All you get is one trick: rational thinking. But when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, the sky's the limit.

I invert the poles and take a reverse anemoteric move to reach Heathrow Terminal 5, thereby losing all my baggage unless my next move is to either Milan or the old sofa in Dunbernarding.

I see i can powder my waffles, and use a scrunchnup to filloway the dapshangle (Expansionary ruleset #78-wr-%$-23, under the Malaysian legislation of '68.) , exploring deeper into Barrikade; the Cavern Lake, and take a "Soaking Wet" card.

It certainly annoys some people, even monarchs, which is why I have to say King's Cross.

*sighs*

well, it annoys me, because now I have to unpowder Reverb's waffles and clip Buddleia's First Class Pass twice, losing three red tokens to G and giving Dave a noogie. Which brings me, with a hop and a skip and a jump under Truble's Warrant of January Subscription to the First Amendment of 1487, to...

the Bordello. Gah the Bordello.
