I can think of two reasons to read this book, unfortunately it’s not the writing and the font selection.

Also, I can’t remember but was there a ‘fantasy factual’ section of the shop? Actually… that might have been through the back, through the hanging beads.

The experts tell me:

(Beef / Fire) x lens flare = EPIC

@simon Do you suppose there is a Latin chant to summon the dreaded “beefy fireball”?
My Latin sadly isnt up to scratch these days, but i’ve gone for “caro ignis inflatus”. Adam can probably help me.

google can’t define “beefy fireball”, but i suspect there are rules concerning the the ratio of beef to fire, where as somepoint its just a meatball and at the other end of the spectrum its just fire.

“What if Ally McBeal had magic powers … which enabled her to give herself a figure that didn’t look like a string bean.”

@James Hehe, you don’t want to know what i imagined was happening to the Washington Memorial

@Mi I get a vibe from the cover that says “what if Ally McBeal had magic powers”, but even with those powers she still needs to dress like a skank to get anywhere in the corporate world.

@CSA: Great, now I have visions in my head of a Godzilla-sized sex toy, possibly made up of five smaller, different-coloured sex toys, rampaging through downtown Washington. Thanks a lot.

Urgh! What a terrible tag line thing – ‘She’ll need to keep up appearances-if she wants to stay alive…’ I would suggest she starts by getting a shirt that fits or she’s going to have an embarring incident in her next boardmeeting.

The beard does at least allow for decorum to be maintained even though her blouse is mostly unbuttoned. Until it gets windy. Which, 900 ft up, it must often do.

I’m not sure she’s going to go far in Washington making those sorts of mistakes. Beefy fireballs notwithstanding.

And while we’re on the subject – a ‘beefy’ fireball? How does that work exactly?

Still as long as she can keep up appearances she’ll be OK.

Well i’d definately rise to the challenge. But after a quick feasibility study i conclude that realistically it would require the use of a MegaZord. Somebody phone Japan.
