Don't know if anyone else knew this but my childhood illusion was shattered today to find out that Henry the mild mannered janitor who 'could be' Hong Kong Phooey was actually named Penry and I just misheard. Not exactly Dizzy Tiger related but I'm sure everyone here knows where I'm coming from.

What the fuck? His name was Henry! How could everyone have got that wrong? Still (altogether now): Hong Kong Phooey - tee-rrific!

Shattering childhood illusions!
No its true - do a search on the web. It was Penry, short for Penrod.
I'm glad its not just me!

Try again, it DOES work.
"The least coherent encyclopaedia of playground insults on the internet", apparently! They've been having server problems recently, they say.
Any more recommended similar sites, anyone?
Anyway, how was your birthday Nick, did you get the bumps?

I didn't edit anything on this thread, so the post that went missing must've been removed by the original post-ee. As you've probably all noticed, you can modify or remove any of your own posts (though I'd rather you didn't!), although as moderator I can alter anything on these boards, should I choose to, but I don't! Apart from correcting my typing, or clarifying my own posts with post-scripts, the only thing I've removed from this board was a thread Lewis put up when he'd had a bad weekend recently (which was taken down by mutual agreement, and the conversation continued through Personal Messaging). I'd make it clear if I did alter or remove anyone else's posts! So, yeah, I was suprised that that particular individual post was removed, but there you go. It's their decision.

Nick just moped about in a dark dark headspace like he does each birthday. Striving desperately to escape to a cabin in the woods with soe weed. Foiled at every turn by people whom want to make him have fun, people who care - the dirty rotters!! - In answer to Stu's birthday related question a couple of messages above this reply. And on top of that I am going bald grrrrr!

Bummer. I'm not going bald yet, just more and more grey. Still holding myself physically together though! Happy belated birthday, once more.x
