Post it here please. No off-topic responses. Be it known to ye that I have indeed made a blood pact with the moderators, so that he/she who dares to reply with information other than that of the topic clearly put before us shall be turned into a turnip at midnight.

You have been warned.

Greate King, there be a vassal without, who sayeth he is desirous of acquiring Turniphood, and asks of Thee what Greate Deed he must accomplish - what Root Vegetable he must cultivate, or rescue from Distress - to please Thee to admit him to the Brotherhood of the Round Turnip?

Sir Knight, are ye also desirous of Admission to the Brotherhood of the Round Turnip? For hearken ye, thy Post must be further off-topic than this, if Thou art to be Admitted.

But Karl has brought the olive oil, he is ready for the challenges that await him! $:)

There will certainly be some shedding, but you will have to wait a long time for any ray of light.  ;)
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

You're doing a fine job so far, Elgarian! Turnip-tian terror awaits ye.

As for what we know so far:
- he goes to a school that, as far as we know, doesn't exist (or so he wants to make us believe)
- he has managed the construction of many famous bridges, but can't seem to remember their names (all this with a music degree, mind you)
- he has been studying Mozart for the past 15 years, and his book, like Jurassic Park 4, is still coming soon

Anything I missed? :D

Pure hearsay.

(And, I see he's further pilloried the 4 Great Englishmen thread . . . some education in that move, eh?)

Karl, as we have already informed you, we will not tolerate such off-topic babble. Surely, you have something to contribute to this thread that relates to the man in the heading? ::)

I think he learned everything he knew from Elvis.

Or was it the other way round?

Elvis was a hologram, a 'cartoon', you know?

I always knew there had to be some rational explanation for all those terrible movies.

In a later post that was changed; it actually appeared that he was the contract manager at the projects. What it actually may mean I don't know, maybe he was in charge of the file cabinets?

Newman's a cartoon? SpongeRob SquareTurnip?

I think not, Sir Knight. It is behoven upon any desirous of being admitted to the Brotherhood of the Round Turnip, that he shall post herein in the manner known as offus topicus; said cartoonistical vassal has yet to comply.

He starts up threads on obscure 18th-c. composers. Isn't that proof of his expertise?

He is obviously the new model Saul.  ;D
