Now what could one possibly do with 57 brand-new "Spencils"?
They're a highly sought-after prize on 612 ABC breakfast, hosted by Spencer Howson, whose name provides the extra "s" in "spencil", and whose blog is full of quirky thoughts and wacky photos (not to mention a strange obsession with reverse-stripe ties). I could conceivably run some sort of eBay racket. Get your genuine Spencil! Only $60 plus postage and handling!
But there are so many other things one could try:
- Build a small Spencil hut.
- Use them to train chihuahuas to fetch.
- Sharpen them, blu-tac the eraser ends onto my tiles, and create a deadly, pointy HB trap inside the door to impale the Wah when he next unsuspectingly arrives home (Random ambush maiming is just one of those little things we like to do to keep the relationship fresh, you know?)
- Attempt to get into the Guinness Book of Records by shoving them all in my mouth and taking a photo.
- Spencil ninja.
Special thanks to Rose Tyler!

I don't have any ideas, but I have 1 more spencil if you need it!
ReplyDeleteI would become the Spencil Fairy.
ReplyDeleteFlitting about the city of Brisbane carefully placing a Spencil under the pillow of good ABC radio listeners as they dream of Mr Howson.
You could vaporise them from existence and then erase the term "spencil" from memory.
ReplyDeleteOhh... that kinda sounded harsh against Spencer. Wasn't meant to. Sorry Mr Howson.
ReplyDeleteBut why 'spencil'? Why not Howcil? Or Penson?
Jamin! How could you NOT mean that to sound harsh?!?!!? ;)
ReplyDeleteNow now children
ReplyDeleteLets be nice !!!
Althought the thought of The Wah "flitting" the city is a touch mind boggling.
Hell!, it is a lot mind boggling
Will he wear a tulle tutu the same colour as the Spencils ?
Will he have a little Spencil wand with a little star on top ?
Will he trip on the lovely level BCC pavements and insert a Spencil into ..........
Where are all these Spencils coming from ? Does Mr Howson have a breeding site somewhere under the ABC site???

Hey! I've got a really wild idea! You could... WRITE with them! Or maybe... DRAW!
ReplyDeleteI think The Wah has the legs for the tulle tutu that Anonymous mentioned down there. Not sure about the flitting.
You know, seriously, if you want to get rid of them, try a refugee group. The kiddies would be happy to use them for school and scribbling.
Where did you get those?!!! Is someone making replicas? I feel like I'm in "City of Death" with all those Mona Lisas!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, they're way too valuable in a way too valuable kinda way to sharpen and use (also, because they're made in China and come pre-broken).
Oh yeah, and since they're made in China, never lick your spencil. They have lead inside and out!
But for a real thrill, get yourself an honorary spencil with tassle. Only five in existence so far!! (If ever you do get your hands on one, the following warning applies: never tug your tassle!!!)
Geez, Spencer way to turn the mood blue!
ReplyDeleteLicking spencils and tugging tassles... what's going on?!?!?!
;)
Well..I may have to listen to Spencer's program tomorrow for a change...I was unaware that it contains "Sexual References"!;)
ReplyDelete*Using his best sexy SBS announcer voice*
ReplyDeleteThe ABC would like to advise this Spencer Howson has been rated *M*. He may contain ... adult themes ...
SBS dulcet (serious) tones:
ReplyDelete"Not only adult themes but strange, organic, ......items"
So tell me Spencer. Given that the Spencil is used to write (All the Gods forfend )can one then strip off the paint from the outside and write with that as well??
Hey Dumpling are we talking of the same Wah ???
Legs to suit a tulle tutu...
Lock Forward for the Reds more like.

Oh silly me !!!
ReplyDeleteThere is but one Wah
