The Cadfael continui (I'm ASSUMING in both movie and book 'verse) have Mini-Jeromes. Jerome, for the uninitiated, being the altogether unpleasant clerk to Prior Robert, and constantly trying to get our hero in trouble.

So yeah, after my little brain spout there, I would personally say that Mini-Steve Duncans would work well.

Oh ..., I still remember his name... after not reading the books for more than 10 years.

OK I carried PhD studies on three eye developmental diseases:
- X-linked ocular albinism (only eyes are albino)
- congenital microcoria (very small pupils and sometimes glaucoma)
- oculo-auricular syndrome (eyes and external ears are affected) due to a mutation in a homeobox gene involved in sense organ development

About sci-fi... I have photos from Star Wars, Star Trek, Terminator, Stargate...

I was gone for eight hours yesterday. Seriously, what's going on?

Wow. I can't imagine we have many PhDs on-Board.

Incidentally, what diseases? I may be an English major, but I've always been Bio-curious.

~Neshomeh, maker of horrible puns.

I'm thinking mini-enemy jockey(s). I don't remember the book that well, but it seems to me there was competition from somebody in particular. That person, or people, would work as minis.

I can't think of any examples of human minis from canons, but sometimes they're the only option. I think they end up like Munchkins or something like that.

Welcome, and have a shapeshifting plushie.

I have many pics of tall ships from all over the world, are you interested? Even my Agents are there.
I also have pics of a specific Irish rock band, others taken from different SF films and TV shows and esoteric pictures I used for my PhD dissertation on eye developmental diseases.
Take your pick.

I mean, there are the horses, and there are the people, and I don't think they should be modeled after humans. I think there might have been a barn cat or something, but those aren't exactly any better than horses.

And, for the record, the very idea of an Internet marketing elite is laughable. Yes, it's a massive market for merchandising, but the majority of the stuff that does get marketed on the Internet is stuff that no one man would EVER want to attach their name to. Certainly not without several aliases in front of it.

I mini should be modeled after something that is at first glance not cute. Horses are cute by their very definition.

*poor british accent* 'Ello, mate! I make it a point to greet the newbies, unless I miss them, so welcome!

Have a cookie! Just don't eat it...

So, as you'll see if you look down the page, I'm currently sporking a fic in the Black Stallion fandom. I'm pretty sure this is a first, so what would the minis be? I'm guessing mini Blacks.

Oh, and on a related note; if a real world place (say, Britain*) is misspelled in a fic, it's just another mini, right?

*the author misspelled it as "Brittan" in the first paragraph. First sentence, in fact.

I was a Girl Guide many years ago and earned my Chief Commissioner's Award (the highest award given to Guides in NZ), so I know kind of what a big effort it is to actually go through with all of this sort of thing.

Congrats and high-five!

So let's see, we have...

- misspellings
- asterix emphasis instead of italics
- literal killings
- Mr AS and Mr AS, whom I'll bet both have S-initial middle names
- writing single digit numbers in numerals instead of words
- punctuation abuse
- tutorials that take hundreds of hours
- microscopic videos
- total fail with "100's" - since when can the concept of a number own anything?
and,
- a mangled sign-off.

Something tells me I won't be buying it. The only PPC-worthy thing I can see in there is the possible new method of Sue-slaying. Death by Internet Marketing Method? Creative, at least.

Look! Spam! Beautiful! I just ran out of food for my minis!

*feeds the spam to them*

That canned stuff isn't really to my taste. You're welcome to it. *grins*

My big bro got it last year. In fact, his entire patrol made it to Eagle... except one of them who dropped out at Star.

I'm in Venturing, and my brother's been in Boy Scouts since he was a Wolf Cub, so I'm really familiar with this stuff. I've gone to a whole bunch of Courts of Honor, because my bro's troop is real gung-ho about the Eagle Rank.

Especially...whisked spam. ^_^

*produces egg whisk and whisks with much aplomb*

BTW, will your Agents be based in a TARDIS or a Response Center.

Have a Mark III K-9!

But don't tempt the Ironic Overpower nonetheless. You never know, he could end up bringing Rose back again at Christmas.
