Paco returns.

Posted by Tim B. on 04/27/2007 at 09:48 PM
    1. And “coincidentally”, Rosie just left The View. Hmmm…

    1. Welcom back Paco.  Your talents for chastising moonbats were missed.

      Uh…“Hot Lips” Hattie?

    1. About freaking time. This is the most awaited comeback since that guy with the beard, who promised us eternal life. We hard typing proles are sick to death of hearing “Paco this, Paco that”. And for crying out loud, is there a product that PACO Industries doesn’t have it’s finger in?

      Never go anywhere without your joy buzzer.

      Welcome back, oh weary figure.

    1. 6) A lavender garter belt bearing the name “Hot Legs Hattie”, stitched in silver thread

      Paco, was her name Hattie or did she just like wearing hats?

      Welcome back.

    1. We do expect SOME sort of report, Paco. You know that, don’t you.

    1. Thank you one and all. Good to be home. And just in the nick of time, too. The creative urge blew up like a beer can in a hot garage last week. I’m a member of a task force at work (several, in fact; at our agency, task forces proliferate like a mushroom popping spores. I don’t know that they’ve all been counted, but I suspect there are more task forces than there are employees). Now, where was I? Oh, yes. Anyhow, I wrote a report – mundane business stuff, of no interest to you all, and of precious little interest to me. Would normally have been the kind of thing that I’d have put into the garden variety parlance of bureaucracy. But something just kind of snapped, and I worked in analogies featuring sheep, goats, woodpeckers, phrenology and aromatherapy. Got some pretty odd looks from the recipients of the report whenever I passed them in the hall.

      As to my absence: I’m afraid it will have to be the stuff of mystery for now. I not only am not in a position to explain it, I can’t even explain why I can’t explain it. The little I could say would only be confusing (er, sort of like this).

      The family is fine. Paco, Jr. is still in training, #1 Son has progressed from being a perpetual college junior to being a perpetual college senior, and Mrs. Paco is sound as a bell. I haven’t even visited this place since I bugged out, so I’ll be reading Tim’s posts and the comments to get up to speed.

    1. Strewth, Paco, you gotta LOT of catching up to do!

    1. I not only am not in a position to explain it, I can’t even explain why I can’t explain it.

      Oh, easily explained by the words “gag order”, I suspect.

      “Corporate malfeasance trial of the century”, I think they’re calling it.

    1. Nice list of items, Paco. But you forgot the yo-yo and the packet of jelly babies.

      This two-timing dame says Welcome Back to Detective Paco!

    1. The Return of Paco is a glorious event that must be celebrated.

      Break out the mead and fruit juice!

    1. Huzzah!

      Oh, wait – that’s Lileks….

      I’ll bet that report was a doozy.  ;-p

    1. I advise caution. Are we certain this is the real Paco? I don’t remember any beard and why the white cloak? Sure there’s the fedora with the bullet hole but who among us hasn’t got at least one of those?

    1. Oh gee whiz.  I was gone 23 years in the Tardis and nobody said jack when I returned.

      Ok paco, you might be a celebrity with some people here, but you’re just an ordinary double 0 deep cover secret agent to me.  We have dozens of them, ok, not dozens.  Just a few.  But you all still hae to comply with regulations.

      Turn your Porsche back in.  Same for your weaponry, except for the Walther PPK, you can keep that.  AND BRING ME BACK THAT TARDIS !

      I need your After Action Report by tomorrow.  Intriplicate.  On the prescribed paper, in the prescribed format.  Not on a roll of toilet paper like last time.  Q Branch does not have a sense of humor.

      And oh yes, Karl wants to see you.  He said “at your earliest convenience”.  (eye twitches)

    1. #13 Welcome back PACO!

      I feared you had absquatulated and we would not see you, your noirratives or your like again!
      Andy Canuck filled in manfully for you but somehow it wasn’t the same.

      Oh, boy. A couple of covert ops and suddenly we’re Mr Nonchalance himself.

      Good to have you back, paco.

      And: with the winter season coming on down here, I’d like to offer this important health message.

    1. Wronwrights less than stellar performance for those years was captured on film.
      Serves him right for “sampling” multiole bottles of that “date wine”.

      A sad story.

    1. Welcome back Paco   –  Happy to hear Mrs P and the boys are well   –  I’m sure you’ll enjoy catching up on things around here!

      Welcome back, we missed you, did you bring me a present?

    1. Gee, Paco, I think RebeccaH may have missed you.

      Just an inkling feeling.

    1. Tim, Tim, Tim! You’ve really missed out big time here.
      The man who sold me this photo at the Subi Markets asssured me that this is 1.618.
      The Great Mystery has been solved!
      Hear the Blairite males howl!
      Jeebus Greist, Tim, how could you not respond to the lustvibe coming off a figure like that?

    1. Swinish, that was a gratuitous red herring, and very nice too. That skirt hovering at c level ….

    1. Welcome back!

      What phase of boot camp is Paco jr. in? Also, to what battalion was he assigned? He went to Parris Island, not San Diego, correct?
