Re: [monkey] Have you ever made a magic wishing staff? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 17 Jul 1997 13:43:06 +0100 From: Matt Sephton Subject: [monkey] Impossamole features Monkey I've been reliving my youth playing on an Atari ST emulator, PaCifiST. One of the games I played a while back was Impossamole. On the Oriental level in this game one of the baddies you have to contend with is Monkey! He has a little stick and hits you with it as you go past. Any luck with the C64 game?

I never painted it black, because I never had any black paint! I used to love that stick. I've still got it in the garage somewhere.

Good luck Chris - I am doing my own aikido version of learning how to fight with a stick as well tomorrow at 7am. One day perhaps we could organise a kind of Monkey stick convention, bring along our sticks - decorated or not - - of all sizes ranging from matchsticks to bo length and demonstrate a few moves to each other!! that would be fun!!! :-) :-) Clare *********************************************************** Clare O'Farrell email:c.ofarrell@qut.edu.au web page: http://www.qut.edu.au/edu/cpol/foucault/ 'Let battle commence.

Thanks Clare. I hope your training goes well. I've only had two lessons so far, so I imagine it will be quite a while before they let me near the weapons. > One day perhaps we could organise a kind of Monkey stick convention, > bring along our sticks - decorated or not - of all sizes ranging > from matchsticks to bo length and demonstrate a few moves to each > other!! that would be fun!!! :-) :-) It sure would, though I'd prefer to wait until I was a little bit proficient before demonstrating my skills. I want to get beyond the stage of regularly dropping the staff or hitting my own head every second move. > Clare The quote in your sig., which episode is it from?
