(Drum roll please)

It is my extreme pleasure and honor to announce that Smudgie, after putting up with our collective nonsense lo these many years, has consented to make it official, and serve us as a Circus Host!

Let the petal throwing and cheers commence!

I think the best response to honour Smudgie would be to say I'm offended!

Oh, you are so right! [Yipee]

I expect lots of hostly slaps with a herring. good stuff.

Exciting! perfect host choice!

Krill flavoured GIN sounds just the ticket!

Congratulations and welcome, ma'am.

[os should that be commiserations?]

Finally, the Heightest barriers are broken! Even though it only be the Circus. Wait a moment, Only allowing the shor..., normal sized folk to host in the Circus? With the likes of this? I was incorrect, heightism still reigns here. [Disappointed]

If you are, it won't be heated, unless the Hell Hosts stick their pitchforks in...
 
Posted by Chorister (# 473) on :
 
I can't think of a better penguin to take over from me. [Yipee]

In celebration, here's a new game.

Smudgie will need all those candy sticks to give her energy to Host. How many can we collect between us?

I doubt a penguin will want a heated pool, and I don't intend to cool my pitchfork.

Welcome Smudgie! A fine choice.

A better choice for Circus Host I cannot imagine! Welcome and good luck [Big Grin]

At this time of year, in the natural hemisphere for penguins, I don't want a heated pool!!

Hooray and thank you Smudgie! [Yipee]

*Curtseys* - I live to serve [Big Grin]

I think this is adminly revenge for ten years of word association and everlasting sentences - or possibly Kelly's revenge for me being so very easily offended [Biased]

I won't tell you how brutal they were to me, a poor innocent and normal sized little penguin, until I finally broke down and agreed to do their every bidding. They even made me make the tea!

Seriously, thank you so much for all the welcomes. Chorister's shoes are indeed going to take some filling (once I've got all the fluff off the inside of them - plays havoc with the webbed feet!) - if I can do half as good a job as her, I'll be pleased.

I hope you aren't afraid of clowns, Smudgie! You will be a wonderful Host! I can sense it in the Force.
[Biased]

Yep. That's exactly why they chose you, the same reason as they chose me. [Paranoid]

Don't forget - if life gets too hard, there is a secret ejector button in the toe of the left bright red shoe. All you have to do is count to three and give it a firm press. But it won't work if either of us tells anybod... Oh bummocks! Sorry, now you're stuck. [Hot and Hormonal]
Good luck!

Good choice. Have fun!
 
Posted by balaam (# 4543) on :
 
Good choice. Well done Smudgie, and hang on to your sanity.
 
Posted by lilBuddha (# 14333) on :
 
Hang on, she's got some sanity left? I thought the prerequisite for being a Circus Host was to have none. I mean, look who they have do it...

No Offense intended, of course. [Angel]

Believe me, any sanity she has left will soon go.... [Biased]

I think this should be on the Euphemism thread. For "brave", read "foolish".
 
Posted by lilBuddha (# 14333) on :
 
Now, now, Smudgie. You are not foolish. Stark, raving mad, but not foolish.
 
Posted by Starbug (# 15917) on :
 
I think an insane penguin is the perfect choice for a Circus host - a sane one would go stark-raving bonkers in no time! [Big Grin]

Congratulations, Smudgie. [Yipee]
 
Posted by Ariston (# 10894) on :
 
Hey! HEY! HEY!

I'm not THAT bad! I mean, I didn't make Smudgie drink the Lapsang Souchong after all, and I did thank her for making it . . . okay, gave her an appreciative wave of the hand to dismiss . . . look, I wasn't that mean! And now you all think I'm singing something about Roxana and being Your Little Dog Too?

Fine, okay, it's a promotion from my usual place, I guess.

Circus Hosting: It's Not For Everyone. Happily, we got someone worthy of our exalted red-nosed company.

Oh dear! Someone left the gates open in the Circus and now Ariston is drooling candy floss all over Styx.
Someone start up the calliope and lure him back.
 
Posted by jedijudy (# 333) on :
 
Ariston wouldn't have so much trouble with the candy floss if he hadn't found the GINger enGINe paGINg beGINner apparatus.

Just sayin'.
