But we didn't agree on the prize. I have to retire into my tents now and think of something suitable.

Gold-plated cadillac...? Nah, too showy.
Million dollars worth of assorted stock in...? No, no, market's jittery.

It'll come to me."

"Congrats Bat-Mite!!! Well here we are aren't we? A major milestone in Lucifer and the Morningstar High message boards. After well over a year we have achieved 1000 posts on this thread. Let's try and get some insight into Mike's vision of Teabags.

EXCLUSIVE TEABAGS INTERVIEW QUESTIONS FOR MIKE CAREY:

1) What was your original vision for Teabags and how did things change when you realized you had a hit on your hands?

2) There has been much talk in the media that Teabags has primarily been a marketing tool. While noone can deny the success of the action figures and Playstation games, do you feel that you have maintained the artistic integrity you set out to achieve with this thread?

3) If Teabags and Superman fought, who would win?

4) How do you hope future generations will look back on Teabags? Is it a story that inspires hope or more a collection of disconnected ramblings?

5) If, instead of being a computer thread, Teabags were a UK based writer, how do you think it would approach a Firestorm relaunch?


Thanks for all the fun times on the Teabags thread..and for starting it all Mike. Here's to another 1000 posts (Lucifer and Rob willing) with all you good people. It's the most fun I've had without getting out of my chair. Let us know what Bat-Mite walks away with (I hope you throw in the Teabags home game) and please-please-please back a truck full of money up to Karon Flage's house and lure her back for a special appearance. She was the inspiration for the thread after all.

"Yeah, come on Karon. Speech! Speech! :)

Papercut, all I can say is that if I'd known on that fateful day back in June of 2001 what I know now... well... I'd have probably started a digestive biscuit thread as well."

I would like to thank all the people that made this possible, so to everyone who posted the last 999 posts, thank you very much.

Done!

My e-mail is bharris@cbrmail.com

I'm not B.Harris or know anyone called like that, it's just a name I picked at random, I change e-mail accounts everytime spammers find them and start filling them with junk."

Mike Carey wrote:

"A very sensible arrangement. This is where I tear off my mask and say ""Aha! But I *am* that spammer!"" :)

I'll be in touch, Bat-Mite. Oh, and would you like to buy some life assurance/subscribe to a magazine/see live nude co-eds dancing the cha-cha/win a time share apartment/have a bigger *****/take out a huge loan at extortionate interest?

You can buy that? Especially these days? Hey, I'll take some!

And what's a digestive biscuit? Is that some sort of Brit thing?"

Sounds like a good plotline. When'll we be seeing it? 'round Lucifer #41 or so? Or is that more of a Hellblazer thing?

It's the minimal biscuit experience. It exists at the biscuit/cardboard interface. It is to a fresh, gooey chocolate chip cookie what the desolate squawk of a kazoo is to an orchestral finale.

McVitie's do a nice one."

Wow! One can tell you were a teacher. Teachers have a knack for creating a working example to explain anything. Well done.

Oh, and put me down for a baker's dozen of those co-ed nudes.

You have live nude coeds dancing the cha cha? Whenever I check out that site it refuses to show me any porn and demands my credit card details...

I happened to be Ground Hog Dave during a period of time in which I was banned, so my ridiculously high count just goes up one more.

And my congratulations on your insane single minded determination and patience in tallying that score card."

Wow, Adrian, that's a heck of a list!

My total is 27, though, because I also go be Zoe's Love Slave and for a very brief time Tadwolloper Jutefruice (until I realized that it was actually spelled Tadwallader).

I can't believe I've posted to this thread so much...

My hat is off to you, sir!"

BTW, I have heard that putting club soda on tea makes for a refreshing beverage. WHat kinds of teas can I mix with 7-Up or just plain old club?"

"I keep getting mail that asks me if I would like to extend the length of my ***** to keep my wife happy - am now very worried!

But on another note, what happened to those biscuits that scientists were working on that allowed one to dunk them in one's tea without fear of reprisal from a sodden mass lurking at the bottom of one's cup?"

Mike Carey wrote:

"Ade, my jaw is at half-mast as a sign of respect. Incredible work.

Lin was offered bigger breasts and a bigger penis on the same day. Like Roxane, she feels that these spamming companies need to do better audience research.

Or maybe they did some, but it was on Rob Liefeld."

Yeah, at least two hundred posts by people who don't drink tea !

Although I tried a drink called Kombucha yesterday that I'd heard about on Danny Baker's radio show. And half way through, I saw that it is made from some sort of tea extract !"

I drank some peach flavor Snapple tea Sunday...that counts, doesn't it?"

"Hey, I drink tea. It's called Mazikeen's Best Blend. It's blood red and incites violence everywhere I go. I occassionally have the other side my face ripped off but it got restored lately due to some weird juju by some funky group of people that I seem to halucinate from time to time.

Yes, I think we had Mr T pay us a visit.

Thus far no tee-ball, t-bone or T-junction discussion, though.

How's that for a run on sentence!"

Well I got nothing tea related to say at the moment. Me and a friend from work are collaborating on a project for a comic book. Once things are further along I'll mention details.

Good luck with it.

Well it's pretty basic super-hero stuff. I might see if I can work in a scene where one of the characters is drinking Morningstar Brand Tea.

" By the way, [Jerry Lewis voice on] the reason I don't wanna reveal too much about the story is that it'd reveal the big secret twist thing with the plot and the going in the different direction than you the audience would be expecting. [Jerry Lewis voice off]

" Oh and I'm seeing about doing a guest story (that may or may not have any artwork with it) for a web comic called Everything Jake (www.everythingjake.com) that is really cool.

I'll have no trouble at all working in a tea refference in that one :) !"

"Hey...I'm just four and a half hours away from my debut performance in Canada's longest running play: ""Agatha Christie's - The Mousetrap"". It just celebrated it's 25th anniversary here in Toronto (which is kids play compared to how long it's been running in London...50 years I think) by hiring me to join the company.

I'll have to post the link to the website soon (but not before they put my bio up of course) so any Morningstar students in or visiting the Toronto area can pop by for some good old fashioned murder mystery the whole family can enjoy. And if you already know how it turns out, you can just enjoy watching me struggle through a British accent for 2 hours. It runs the gammit from Irish to Limey in the first act alone!!!

Now I think I'll go have a cup of tea to help get me in character and pre-empt the nerves that'll kick in about 3 hours from now."

Congratulations, Papercut. Don't worry about your accent: it can't be any worse than Winona Ryder's can it?"
