Am I overthinking this message?
I've never been accused of overthinking anything. How would I know?
Clare Voiyant.
I know what you mean. I think we have our very own "The Warbler Code" right here in this post. The Winds of War and the machine gun and bullets images from 'another one bites the dust' seem rich in ambiguity and mutlivalency.
There is certainly a deeper plot and message hidden in this posting. The code must be deciphered.
Girls, some of us clueless men are like really wondering about all this and stuff, if you know what I mean, sorta.
1 3 5 7 9 2 4 3 6
4 8 10 12 11 5 7 6 13 4 14 15 3 4 9 6 11 16 6
17 4 0 6!
on the second line, there should be a space between the 6 and the 13
Jeez, I had no idea you could talk dirty with numbers!
I can but I don't. Ever.
When held up to the mirror I think it says:
Now is the winter of our discontent.
Maybe you should hold it over an open flame and see if the lemon juice appears...
Tried that but my monitor melted leaving me with a heap of molten plastic and fried cables.
Second attempt led to a far more puzzling message. Read the code through some really cool specs fashioned by Ben Frankin: the message read:
Happy Birthday Mr. President!
"He who laughs last ... is a little bit slow."
Did I get it?
Angels and demons - secret codes -
mysterious nuance - maybe I can help.
oui g. bored
Help.
I've tried to break the cipher, but no luck. I can't find the key to sort out the code.
It's quite the enigma.
Hey, Oui,
Ask Elvis if he still likes fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches.
I'm not hearing "Love Me Tender" here am I? Back to the code breaking, could be Najaho speaker lingo or somethin'.
Sorry, Navajo. Whatever ..
Of course I still like'em.
That's what heaven's all bout.
I like your purty voice too darlin.
Keep singin
Wow, this Internet thingy is way cool. Hey, King, what do you think of the Marshmallow Fluff? You know, you mix it with some peanut butter and get a Fluff-a-Nutter sandwich? That stuff is to die for, I mean.
I was known to be prone to excess and peanut butter and fluff was just one of the contributing factors - you are so right Sam, just the thought of one of those babies on soft white bread is enough to pop a sequin.
Enough about pb sandwiches and marshamallow fluff. The fate of the free world hangs in the balance and The Warbler's code is still unbroken.
The clock is ticking, Dubai is about to control US ports and the secret message is still a secret message.
Drats. Where is my decoder ring?
Decoder ring was buried with Maxwell Smart - exhumation must occur (unless shoe phone can be activated)
Oh for God's sake!
You Yanks just don't know how to run a decent spy business at all. That's the only decoder ring?
Ring up the shoe phone then.
Just hope you get there before Kaos does the deed.
BTW
Just where did you plant that bloke Smart, or is that another coded message?
The signs are indeed ominous. The secret message, the voice of Elvis, the doobie at the docks, a new James Bond movie, it is all there. But what to make of it?
Elementary, my dear Watson.
The evidence speaks for itself.
But Holmes,my dear friend, I am confused.
Is 'The Warbler' a force for good in the world or is she your nemesis?
Holmes, look at the confusion and panic she has created. Perhaps she is no ordinary nemesis. This is clearly the work of an arch-nemesis.
Perhaps it is time to be concerned, perhaps its time to call out Scotland Yard?
You've heard about Batman versus the Penguin, but can he stand up against ... the Warbler? Bwahahaha!
Moonwalk into the ladies room in the bus station in Dubai - keys to cracking the code are in the second stall...
OMG! Could this seriously be any more fun????
All I have to say is I can't believe how 'sissyish' Brit intelligence is with whining about the decoder ring.
All I need is dental floss, a paperclip, and wd-40 to get things done.
Snuk into the bathroom stall in the bus station but didn't see any keys anywhere. However, scrawled on the stall wall was this note:
"The Warbler was here."
Her fingerprints are everywhere on this one.
Whoa!
I beg to differ. The Warbler is a kind and generous person, compassionate to a fault. She would never conspire to create mass confusion or assist Dubai in taking over the US ports. Not the Warbler I know.
This must be the work of her evil twin the Wobbler. ( Which is how the Warbler is pronounced in Rhodeislandese- I know I'm bilingual)
Living for the code
M.
I had a code once
Had to spend the week in bed
Thought I had it for a minute, cause using my Captain Midnight decoder ring, the first four letters began with the four spaces of the bass clef in the musical staff. I still think I'm on the right track but haven't figured out which street to take yet. Hey Bookworm how about a little collabaration here? You know how to contact me, "X" in the road in front of your house?
Emergency shipment of kryptonite is enroute - most anything can be conquered with a dose of "K".
Superman dude?
doncha remember that kryptonite is like bad 4u? I thought you were like allergic to those rays or somethin.
Don't the Krays rob you of your superpowers and turn you into some weak sappy being. Don't the krays give you the manilow effect?
Please, God, Not the Manilow effect! That diabolical brain warping effect activated by destructively droll soundwaves.
It's all so clear now. Gaining the ports was only the first step the real plan was the maniow effect. Alert the pentagon, we're at national security level red.
Wonderwoman:
Sorry about the misunderstanding - I meant that if it was bad for me, it would surely be lethal to the bad guys.
