Altares Alert -- this may or may not be a drill

Jomsvikingar to the barricades! They've landed.

"Police hunt for four foot lizard"

Unfortunately, the cambridge evening news site doesn't seem to have it yet, and the bbc Headline is less interesting

Are you sure you don't mean "Antares"?

[cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com]

Altares is the adjectival form. *puts on infallible hat*

OMG, it's in Ely? I'm probably more likely to bump into it than anyone else on your f'list then...

If I suddenly stop posting on LJ at some point over the weekend, you'll know I've been eaten ;)

Lizard: Grgh.
Pippa: Agh!
Pippa's friend: Run away.
Lizard: Gzrh. Zzghz.
Pippa: It's sleeping at us!
Pippa's friends: Aaagh! Snoring!
Lizard: Zzzzzzz. Grh. Zzzzzzz.
Pippa: Run away!

You're still wrong :p

This (http://cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com/friends?show=P) is a better solution.

Was that link supposed to be there and/or work?

[(Anonymous)]

Both.

It refers to your userinfo.

[cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com]

Ah -- I didn't know what that did. That is useful.

I'm not completely sure, though; some user accounts are essentially articles, which should be excluded.

But thanks for telling me.

BTW -- who are you? Do you know me?

I don't think I like my characterisation there ;) Or my friend's characterisation for that matter... And the lizard could be more scary. Wait, I'll write a story...

Pippa: OMG, a lizard!
Lizard: Haha, I'm going to eat you!
Pippa: *produces sword*
Lizard: *growl*
Pippa: *slays lizard with great bravery*

:)

Well, you're the one who said OMG... eaten. That's what I was responding to. Insofar as that wasn't serious, neither was my comment :)
