Klingon Bells … Part 10


'Ready for a new and fantastic song?' I try some kind of motivation speech.

'What if I said no', the llama asks.

'I would have posted this anyway', I say.

'So', the llama is trying to change the subject somehow but not really, 'Professor Mumblemore would have been the headmaster of Pigletspots School for Thievery and Burglary?'

'Yes', I say.

'And at some point Happy Rotter would have met Gundolf, the Wizard, and mistake him for or confuse him with the headmaster?'

'Yes', I say.

'Are we getting somewhere here?'

The llama is very surprised.

'The T.A.R.D.I.S. - you remember that Thing Allowing Readers Dreaming In Spain - is a portal - or would have been a portal - allowing the one who uses it to travel not only from place to place but also from time to time and from universe to universe. Happy Rotter would have found it in the grand auditorium of the palace where the Pigletspots School for Thievery and Burglary is located. And his first words would have been - It is bigger in the inside!'

'Sounds like a good beginning to me', the llama says.

'Happy would have met other people from his universe but from another time which I will mention when it is time to post their photos and the travel to Gundolf and his fellow Dodo would have been his first travel to another universe.'

'The Lord of the Rings?'

'Are you NUTS?' I scream. 'The Lord of the Things, of course. Infringement © Infringement © Infringement © Never stop thinking about infringement ©'


"Bromforder Veermaster"

Ick heff mol en Bromforder Veermaster sehn,
To my hoo-dah, to my hoo-dah!
De Masten so scheev as den Schipper sien Been,
To my hoo-dah! hoo-dah, hoo-dah ho!
Blow, boys, blow for Californio
There is plenty of gold so I am told,
On the banks of Sacramento.

Dat Deck weer vun Isen, vull Schiet und vull Schmeer.
To my hoo-dah, to my hoo-dah!
"Rein Schipp" weer den Käpten sein größtet Pläseer.
To my hoo-dah! hoo-dah, hoo-dah ho!
Blow, boys, blow for Californio
There is plenty of gold so I am told,
On the banks of Sacramento.

Dat Logis weer vull Wanzen, de Kombüs weur vull Dreck,
To my hoo-dah, to my hoo-dah!
De Beschüten, de leupen von sülven all weg.
To my hoo-dah! hoo-dah, hoo-dah ho!
Blow, boys, blow for Californio
There is plenty of gold so I am told,
On the banks of Sacramento.

Dat Soltfleesch weer gröön, un de Speck weer vull Moden,
To my hoo-dah, to my hoo-dah!
Kööm gev dat blots an Wiehnachtsobend.
To my hoo-dah! hoo-dah, hoo-dah ho!
Blow, boys, blow for Californio
There is plenty of gold so I am told,
On the banks of Sacramento.

Un wulln wi mol seiln, ich segg dat ja nur,
To my hoo-dah, to my hoo-dah!
Denn lööp he dree vörut und veer wedder retur.
To my hoo-dah! hoo-dah, hoo-dah ho!
Blow, boys, blow for Californio
There is plenty of gold so I am told,
On the banks of Sacramento.

As dat Schipp, so weer ok de Kaptain,
To my hoo-dah, to my hoo-dah!
De Lüd for dat Schipp weern ok blots schanghait.
To my hoo-dah! hoo-dah, hoo-dah ho!
Blow, boys, blow for Californio
There is plenty of gold so I am told,
On the banks of Sacramento


Gundolf
mistaken for Professor Mumblemore, 
the headmaster of Pigletspots School for Thievery and Burglary
