The karaoke set is installed. Now to find some appropriate party music. We
Can't Dance? Girls just wanna have fun? Nena's 99 Red Balloons (because
Travis would just love to shoot those overly happy things down)?

I've always remembered it as Rejoice In The House of Greif, though
obviously I've got the first word wrong. Er... Grieve In The House of
Greif? Where *is* Pope Bill?

I think GITHOG stands for Greif is Travis - House of Greif. And Pope Bill
was always inviting others to join and rejoice in Greif. As for where Bill
is, I supect he's away from university for the Christmas holidays and has not
yet returned. At least we of FINALACT can be certain that High Priestess
Penny will remain with us. <g>

It started as G.I.T (Greif Is Travis), and then had House Of Greif
added.
I knew the Space City archive would come in handy one day.

<sigh> Here we've been patiently explaining to everyone why Croucher's
Travis is the Only Travis and noone can even remember our fair and reasoned
arguments. Sometimes I don't know why I even bother to get out of bed in the
mornings. Of course this morning I had to, because the Travis clone and the
Avon clone were chasing each other around the house again. Such naughty boys
<happy sigh>.
Anyway, once more I shall give you a list of our most reasonable arguments:
The karaoke machine
The teletubbies video's
The comfy chair
The piranha moat
The thumbscrews (a recent gift from the Tarrant Nostra)
The family photo album.
There's also the home video's but whenever we sat someone down for a lazy
afternoon and thoroughly 'discussed' our arguments with them, they always
came to see how right we were and how wrong they'd been long before we had
to use them. So we still need to test the effectiveness of our specially
made and extremely tasteful video's.
Say, Una, would you happen to have some time for us this afternoon?

the word...the word...the word...spread to you. A shame that word isn't

Allow me, then, to put the alternative viewpoint:
Greif - good. Croucher - crap.

I think you should think of us as much more like an Old Testament orientated
