I don't understand why, but this week's P&A is especially dear to me.

Well, you may have noticed that last week's P&A has had to be uploaded on the Downs rather than TinyPic. That's because it was the first ever Phantom and Alien to be removed. So, episode 69 is the 'banned' episode.
If nothing else, I've discovered what 'the line' is in terms of what these characters can do. Apparently, burning people alive, killing dogs, and selling other people's houses is fine, but slave children is going too far. Anyway, Christmas is coming up and I'm doin' an extra special Downer. If you have an article you want on the front page, PM it to me. It can be up to 250 words long but it must be funny. You can even include a picture.

What I really want to know, is why I was in the cancer ward to begin with, and why it was a lung?
Are you implying something, "Pritchard"?  Quote:
There seems to be a pattern of things of importance ending with fire in The Downer... Sort of like a trend, plus, fire tends to sell, apparently because we're all reading it. Though, fires tend to make good report endings, and they do appear quite a lot in LOTR, come to think of it. There's the shire and saruman incident, denethor taking a dive, Balrog!, pretty much anything Sauron owned at one point or another(including himself), etc... So there you are, full circle or three quarters of the way but still good enough, reasoning why fire appears in The Downer this week. Probably next week, and the week after that. We just need fire endings, its in our nature.  Also, I'll need my lung back actually. I use it as a carrying case for paint now. ~ Organs for conversational pieces Ka

Yeah, Hookbill has a weird obsession with fire...here's the proof.  Look at the poor forest animals in the background...and one of them appears to be hurt even...

Hmmm, there seems to be a connection with the Fellow/Galship of the Entish Bow here - the persons involved there also have a propensity for constant destruction. They do, additionally, prefer their fires to originate from explosions...

Yes, you found me out. My super power is producing large pink balloon shape things.
And Fire tends to be how a lot of Downer articles end. Some suspect it has something to do with Mr Pritchard's previous convictions for arson... But that can't be the case... Nothing has been proved!

Until then, he'll just have to keep randomly preparing explosive runes and what have you, for our entertainment. If he was noticibly caught, we wouldn't have any more great explosions, etc, and thus the very existance of our humor might come into danger. I as one, am not willing to give that up. ~ Just passing by Ka

The Magical painting of Doom, I call it. The photo page is always a source of newspaper pictures. So beware before you post any there.
