Cyborgs and Ropey Statues

G.R.E.G.O.R.Y.D.A.L.Y.: General Replicant Engineered for Galactic Observation/Robotic Youth Designed for Assassination and Logical Yardwork. Such, apparently, is my cyborg name. Beulah sent me the address to this site a long time ago, and I just spotted the mail today for some reason. I thought it was quite clever, better than most of these things, anyway. Try it with your own names - I think Paul and Holly in particular will be quite impressed.

I find it gratifying to think that I was designed for assassination and logical yardwork. My former employers, however, would probably point out that my approach to yardwork was anything but logical.

Incidentally, and entirely unrelated to the last post, remember how a couple of weeks back I was commenting on a poster in the Fab Cafe, showing Doctor Who and a rather ropey statue? It looked far better on the book cover... well, I've tracked down that edition on the web, and it can be viewed at http://www.personal.leeds.ac.uk/~ecl6nb/OnTarget/1982/keeper/82keeper.htm. The one I had is the first one you see.

Assuming you read top to bottom.
