Okay so I noticed the cute bunny rabbit in ashford (KOA). Unfortunately he is gold letters not green so I couldn't tame him. I really wanted a killer rabbit pet. Unless one of the Char had a Holy Hand Grenade.......

Okay long quote post here. [Sitting outside the monsters cave.] Tim: There he is! King Arthur: Where? Tim: There! King Arthur: What? Behind the rabbit? Tim: It *is* the rabbit! King Arthur: You silly sod! Tim: What? King Arthur: You got us all worked up! Tim: Well, that's no ordinary rabbit. King Arthur: Ohh. Tim: That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on! Sir Robin: You tit! I soiled my armor I was so scared! Tim: Look, that rabbit's got a vicious streak a mile wide! It's a killer! Sir Galahad: Get stuffed! Tim: He'll do you up a treat, mate. Sir Galahad: Oh, yeah? Sir Robin: You mangy Scots git! Tim: I'm warning you! Sir Robin: What's he do? Nibble your bum? Tim: He's got huge, sharp... er... He can leap about. Look at the bones! King Arthur: Go on, Bors. Chop his head off! Sir Boris: Right! Silly little bleeder. One rabbit stew comin' right up! [after Bors is killed by the killer rabbit] Tim: I *warned* you, but did you listen to me? Oh, no, you *knew*, didn't you? Oh, it's just a harmless little *bunny*, isn't it? [Whilst charging the rabbit] King Arthur: Run away! King Arthur: Run away! King Arthur: Run away! [Retreats to think of away to kill the rabbit and calls for the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch] Holding the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch] King Arthur: How does it... um... how does it work? Sir Lancelot: I know not, my liege. King Arthur: Consult the Book of Armaments. Brother Maynard: Armaments, chapter two, verses nine through twenty-one. Cleric: [reading] And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths, and carp and anchovies, and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit-bats and large chu... Brother Maynard: Skip a bit, Brother... Cleric: And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it. Brother Maynard: Amen. All: Amen. King Arthur: Right. One... two... five. Galahad: Three, sir. King Arthur: Three. If youve not seen Monty Pythons Quest For The Holy Grail go rent it now! In fact just buy the Monty Python box set and get the Life of Brian, Meaning Of Life, And Now For Something Completly Diffrent. Dont forget the Flying Circus! Tal

I had never notice that it was Saint Attila.
Yes a very good film. One you have to see 20 times to get everything out of it.
Meaning of Life is also very good!
Thanks for posting the quote Tal. You have made my day!
BTW if you are a big fan of John Cleese like me he did another series for the BBC called Faulty Towers after the Monty Python show. It is very, very, very funny.

Have only seen faulty towers a few times - my PBS channel doesn't show it. John Cleese was also funny and wonderful in A Fish Called Wanda - one of my faves. Made a music video to celebrate it as a matter of fact! He was even great in those Schweppes commercials he did 5 or 6 years back. Let's toast John Cleese in the pub sometime! ;D

I love the rabbit!
Gabrielle: "I'll catch the rabbit." Xena: "What? You're gonna catch the rabbit?" Gabrielle: "Yeah, after all these years of watching you slaughter nature's creatures, I think I can do this. Look, I don't want you near the food. A lice infested rabbit is not on my diet." Xena: "I do not have lice. It's dandruff, a minor scalp irritation, that's all." Gabrielle: "Whatever. I'll catch the rabbit." Xena: "Well, go ahead. It's no skin off my back." Gabrielle: "Har-de-har-har."
*Gabrielle goes off to catch the rabbit*... Gabrielle: Your such a cute little rabbit *Rabbit shows fangs...then lunges at Gabrielle* ..*a massive bloody fight insues...Gabrielle finally loses as the rabbit dashes off...*
Joxer: "Someone let the widdle wabbit get away." Gabrielle: "Joxer, you're lucky it was me back there. That little bunny would have ripped your head off. I'm serious. That was one tough rabbit."
Damnit Harvey, get out of my head! This is supposed to be a Guild Wars chat, NOT a Xena chat...

Guess we are way off topic.
Theres has been a lot of good comedy on both sides of the pond. By pure volume I would put it on the side of the US mostly because of the 3 stooges, Abbot and Costello, and the Marx Brothers. However it is all Good.
Spirit I also ejoyed the Black Adder series. And don't forget Dr. Who.
And thanks for not correcting my spelling Fir. You are right it is Fawlty Towers. They have the complete set at Best Buy for $58. I might have bougt it if I didn't spend all my free time playing GW.
Where are the moderators anyway?

Guess we are way off topic. ... Where are the moderators anyway? well I figured by posting my bit about the rabbit it would get this back on topic...however my subtle hints are lost on you *sigh* Ok...next post must have something to do about a frelling rabbit or I'm going to lock this thing....preferably that oh-so-adorable rabbit in Pre-Searing Ascalon. Start a new topic if you want to talk about British shows n' crap.

It is on the hill behind Ashford sort of on the way to Wizard's Folly. Hold down you alt key cause it is hard to see.

The Ashford Bunny simply sits there and stares at you. It doesn't move, but I think it may rotate to face you if you click it... Must be some really cool easter-egg to get the bunny to do anything or absolutely no purpose at all... so far I'm favoring the 2nd option.
Back-off topic... I believe BBC America is having a Fawlty Towers marathon this weekend... I would guess they can play all the episodes as there were only 2 seasons/12 (?) episodes... I have the book of the scripts but not the DVDs...

While we are on this subject, can anyone say where you can get new pets? I know how to give away my current pet, but I don't know where to find other pets like Bears and Spiders and such.

Post by TheUncleanOne on Jun 24, 2005 16:30:58 GMT -5
Bears are charmable in KoA, but it is very difficult and requires very specific skills and a friend. In RoA, Bears are available in the S. Shiverpeaks area; you could potentially run down Lormar's Pass with some help and find a Bear there. Moa are though-out RoA. Wolves are in the N. Shiverpeaks. Lynx are in Kytra and Boar are in the Maaguma Jungle.
The only charmable Spider is in the Underworld.
And as previously stated the Bunny is there to taunt you in KoA.

Dead guy or beautiful necro. Glad you told my you were not X. I would not have noticed. Another bug I suspect on mossy spiders. (he he bug/spiders, maybe only funny to me and the Rum). This post has gone longer than I anticipated. But then with Monty Python remarks you never know how long a post will last! (I won't even start on the "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition").

Hmm I was so tempted to make another long quote post. Romans Go Home! In fact yeah I will, only then I'll bring it back ontopic Just to keep Morbs happy [Brian is writing graffiti on the palace wall. The Centurion catches him in the act] Centurion: What's this, then? "Romanes eunt domus"? People called Romanes, they go, the house? Brian: It says, "Romans go home. " Centurion: No it doesn't ! What's the latin for "Roman"? Come on, come on ! Brian: Er, "Romanus" ! Centurion: Vocative plural of "Romanus" is? Brian: Er, er, "Romani" ! Centurion: [Writes "Romani" over Brian's graffiti] "Eunt"? What is "eunt"? Conjugate the verb, "to go" ! Brian: Er, "Ire". Er, "eo", "is", "it", "imus", "itis", "eunt". Centurion: So, "eunt" is...? Brian: Third person plural present indicative, "they go". Centurion: But, "Romans, go home" is an order. So you must use...? [He twists Brian's ear] Brian: Aaagh ! The imperative ! Centurion: Which is...? Brian: Aaaagh ! Er, er, "i" ! Centurion: How many Romans? Brian: Aaaaagh ! Plural, plural, er, "ite" ! Centurion: [Writes "ite"] "Domus"? Nominative? "Go home" is motion towards, isn't it? Brian: Dative ! [the Centurion holds a sword to his throat] Brian: Aaagh ! Not the dative, not the dative ! Er, er, accusative, "Domum" ! Centurion: But "Domus" takes the locative, which is...? Brian: Er, "Domum" ! Centurion: [Writes "Domum"] Understand? Now, write it out a hundred times. Brian: Yes sir. Thank you, sir. Hail Caesar, sir. Centurion: Hail Caesar ! And if it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your b***s off. There we go. Iv changed the bad language obviously for childrens sake. Now on topic. Is there of changing your pet if you already have one? Tal

There's a guy right outside of Ascalon City who will take your pet. May be others like him in the game, but I don't know where.
