Two-thousand-eighteen Shades Of Bromford - Part 431 & Part 432

 
Today is Friday, the 27th of March 2026.

Aldous Huxley said, 'Consistency is contrary to nature, contrary to life. The only completely consistent people are the dead.'

Stop quoting, Twenty-Five, the whole bunch of animals shouted and started singing.

A very merry birthday

To me?

To who?

To me?

Oh, you

A very merry birthday

To you

Who, me?

Yes, you

Oh, me

Let's all congratulate us with another cup of tea
A very merry birthday to you
A very merry birthday

To me?

To you

A very merry birthday

For me?

For you

Now blow the candle out, my dear
And make your wish come true
A very merry birthday to you


It's not my birthday today, the tawny owl said astonished. Who told you today was my birthday?

You did, answered one of the bears.

You did, said one of the hares.

Judith, cried all the cats.

Come on, whispered the ladybugs and the spiders and bees and ants agreed, and the crickets played their fiddles, it's his unbirthday.

It's our all unbirthday, all the animals found out and started singing that song from the movie Alice in Wonderland again, having their own little Mad Hatter's tea-party,

A very merry unbirthday

To me?

To who?

To me?

Oh, you

A very merry unbirthday

To you

Who, me?

Yes, you

Oh, me

Let's all congratulate us with another cup of tea
A very merry unbirthday to you
A very merry unbirthday

To me?

To you

A very merry unbirthday

For me?

For you

Now blow the candle out, my dear
And make your wish come true
A very merry unbirthday to you

Only the eighteen bats began to wonder, If unbirthday is the opposite of birthday. And the opposite of birth is death. Does that mean that your unbirthday is your death?

But nobody heard their thoughts because the tea-party got bad and better, and the hatter mad and madder.

And twenty-seven koalas joined the twenty bears, the nineteen hares, the eleven hamsters, the three mice, the twenty-three wild boars, the fifteen pigs, the thirty cows, the twenty-two raccoons, the fourteen foxes, the six giraffes, the twenty-nine tigers, the twenty-three lions, the fifteen face-cats, the seven wolves, the thirty dogs, the twenty-two face-monkeys, the fourteen speak-no-evil-monkeys, the six hear-no-evil-monkeys, the twenty-eight see-no-evil-monkeys, the twenty astro-cats, the twelve hipster-cats, the four dragon cats, the twenty-seven hacker cats, the nineteen stunt cats, the eleven ninja-cats, the three pouting cats, the twenty-six crying cats, the eighteen weary cats, the ten kissing cats, the two cats with wry smiles, the twenty-four smiling cats with heart-eyes, the sixteen cats with tears of joy, the eight grinning cats with smiling eyes, the thirty-one grinning cats, the twenty-three spiders, the fifteen scorpions, the seven ladybugs, the twenty-nine bees, the twenty-one ants, the thirty crickets, the twenty-two mosquitoes, the fourteen caterpillars, the six snails, the twenty-six butterflies, the eighteen bats, the ten more chicks, the two chicks, the twenty-five chicks, the seventeen penguins, the nine little red birds, and the one little tawny owl…

"I Was In Love With Bromford City"

When I was young I blew a kiss
For the ones who were haunted
I searched inside
Looked to the skies
Waiting on a comet

2 a.m., the neon lights
At Danceteria
They made me feel like I belonged
In this disaster area

And all the way home
I heard the Belmonts sing for me
Thru all the heartache I put you thru
’Cause I was in love with Bromford City

The Bowery, darkness and light
I saw the bands play
Tom Verlaine, Debbie Harry
At CBGB’s

I spent my days, rummaged the aisles
At The Strand Bookstore
826 Broadway
It’s 8 miles on the ground floor

And all the way home
I heard the Crystals sing for me
Thru all the grief I put you thru
’Cause I was in love with Bromford City

And on the way home
I heard John Lennon whispering
Thru all this darkness, thru the sadness

And on the way home
I heard the Shangri-Las sing for me
Thru all the grief I put you through
cause I was in love with Bromford City
Yes, I was in love with Bromford City



"Bromford"

God is the answer
God is the answer
God is the answer
God lies within

And you can't say
That I didn't learn from you
And you can't say
That I didn't learn from you
And you can't say
That I didn't learn from you
And you can't say
That I didn't learn from you

God is the answer
God is the answer
God is the answer
God lies within

And I will not
Have a good time
But leave me just the same
The statue marks the place here
Where Bromford stook his claim

God is the answer
God is the answer
God is the answer
God lies within

And I guess that
She couldn't tell me
Because she found it
Very frightening
And though a lead slug
Would have felled me
Bromford
Rides the lightning

Bromford and Snake …

 

»Zlytherin…, « the llama hisses. »Do you think there were times when members of House Zlytherin were allowed to bring snakes to school just because they were Zlytherins? «

»Me? Are you talking to me, animal? «

»Who else should I be talking to, dude? Do you know any other former student of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? Aren't you Bromford Bibble, wizard and animagus who can turn into a beaver at will? «

»Moi? «

»Come on, dude. You posted this picture. There is a snake. That's the sigil of House Zlytherin, one of the four Houses of Hogwarts, the boarding school of magic. And you are dressed in the colours of House Zlytherin, black and blue. You even dyed your hair black and blue. We are back in the Harry Potter world, dude. This is your story, isn't it? You were a first year student at Hogwarts when Harry Potter returned for his final final year after Lord Voldemort was defeated. «

»Animal, there is no such thing as hidden magic in this world! Come back to reality. I am not a wizard and I cannot turn into a beaver at will. «

»So you are really thinking about taking a snake as your next animal companion? «

Are you nuts? I hate snakes. «

»OK, than what is going on here, dude? «

»First of all, animal, I was House Gryffindor, like the great Harry Potter himself. The animal of House Gryffindor is a lion. The other House is called Slytherin and not Zlytherin. And their house-colours are silver and green, not black and blue. And during Harry Potter's seven years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and my first one, students were allowed to bring an owl, a cat or a toad to the castle. There were no snakes allowed. «

»I knew it, I knew it, dude! You are a wizard. And you know everything about Hogwarts. «

»Sorry, animal. I don't know what you are talking about. I just look great in black and blue and with a scarf made of snakeskin, don't you think? «

The llama seems a bit frustrated by our conversation. And I pretend not to know why.

»You are not taking this seriously, dude. And nobody ever wants to talk about Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. «

»The badger in yellow and black and the eagle in blue and bronze? « I ask smirking.

»That joke was lame, « the animal says, »and that punchline did not punch at all, dude! «

Bromford and Bat …

 

»No, dude! You cannot do that! That is so really very wrong because of so many legal and moral reasons! «

»I can help with creative image generation, but I can’t create or edit images that depict trademarked characters such as Batman or Robin, or imagery styled directly after DC’s protected characters. If you’d like, you can rephrase the idea using original characters or a non‑trademarked theme, and I can create that for you. «

That is a familiar voice coming from the chat-window on my laptop screen.

»Willy? « the animal shouts out from the other side of the room. »Is that my old chap Willy Wombat? Am I hearig Australia's most famous comic artist? Willy, old chap, what did he do to you? Did he force you to draw that strange, unpleasant and awkward picture? «

»Llama? « the voice from the laptop answers. »KussKuss, the llama? «

The llama is throwing air kisses towards the screen.

»I am sure, he did not know what he was asking for, « the wombat says, »he just wanted to have a picture of you two as superhero and his loyal companion. «

»I said, « I say, »draw me and the llama like Batman and Robin. «

»And I said, « says the wombat, »I can't create or edit images that depict trademarked characters such as… «

»I know, I know, « I interrupt. »But I said green, make the suit or the cape green, not red. «

»You see, KussKuss, old pal, « - the llama is throwing air kisses again - , »he is just being Bromford Bibble as we know and love him. But I have got to go now. There's a sandstorm coming from the Great Victoria Desert. I hope you like the images thought, Bromford. Hi, Bromford! Bye Bromford! «

»A superhero and his loyal companion? « the animal asks. »And who is the superhero and who the companion? «

»I'm Batman, « I claim in my deepest voice.

»And what is you superpower, Batman? «

»I'm rich. «

»You don't say! «

»Come closer, old pal, « I say sarcastically, »look at what Willy made and send. And I promise there is no bat and no man in it at all and after all. «
