Directions Given for Free. Results Worth Twice the Price.

Just had a person come by who was pondering deep, ponderful things, and so went and asked that friendly Jeeves fellow: were is the original consution kept at?

Well, My Annoyingly Pedantic Friend JeffTM would say, "Between the A and the T," but let's not let linguistics hinder us in our quest to dispense knowledge.

The Consution is kept at Consution Hall in Phadepha, Pevania.

You're very welcome. If the Possumblog Research Facility can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

I'm trying to figure out the key word from that stream that led them to Possumblog. I know you are creative, but you also type pretty doggone good (unlike some people) and I just can't see you ever typing consution or "were".

Well, the highlighted word on the Jeeves result was "original." Although I did just search and found that I DID type "consution" in the past, but I was making fun of something else.

You are a very bad man. I wonder how many hits Mapquest is going to get now for Phadepha, Pevania.

I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way.

I'm hurt! I am almost positive that I must have used the word "original" at least once at Kudzuacres

Note the valiant try at a Tag which may or may not work.

It worked, Prince Valiant!

That's pretty much the way reference works in the real world, Terry. Invent answers & send the questioner off dumber, but happier.

Just be sure not to let them know where they got their answers, so they can't come back and bug you for more valuable information.

I may be doomed--everyone knows how valuable Possumblog is for finding out about stuff.
