> [@The Weird One](#): > > Can anyone tell me where to get it? Could get a subscription to it? “It” dwells in the sewers beneath Derry, MN. But from what I hear you really don’t want “it.” Now, if you were lookin’ to get “some” well, I’d definitely help you out personally. ---

ME. Derry, ME. Crap. I don’t even know where “It” is. Oh hey, is that a clown over there? ---

I’d have thought, after all that trouble with the chicken, the hose and the superglue back in '02, that “it” was locked away where they play happy music all day. I could be wrong, though. ---

I’ve got it right here. You sure you want this? Think you’re up to the task? I’ll need a note from your physician, and 3 personal references. ---

It’s been “underground” since the radiation treatments and cloning experiments. Apparently, it and the other it, now unofficially dubbed as tit, have separated and are moving in opposite directions. On preview, I suspect that it took a bus with mr bus to go find tit, but apparently mr bus is offering it as a bartering piece, and I would too if the exchange involved tit. ---

> [@The Weird One](#): > > Jesus H Christ in a wheelbarrow with Velveeta cheese! Well, first you’ll need a time machine, and a lot of cheese. You won’t need any other supplies, assuming you are using a TARDIS, because those old Type-4os were over-built, but they don’t stock Velveeta. You would need to get it separately. ---

Of COURSE I’m using a TARDIS! What else? True story: I visited a friend in Glasgow in February (cheap air-fare). It was my first time in the UK. So I’m wandering 'round the shops and I see a police call-box. _Ohmigod_, thinks my lame-ass American tourist self, _a TARDIS!!_ And I whipped out my little disposable camera and took a picture of it. ---
