Wanted, Dead or alive

Have you seen a man known as 'Big T' or 'The Tominator'?
Last seen rampaging through Indonesia in a ginger-haired flurry of anger and irrationality.
Wanted on suspicion of being mental and trying to get through as many jobs in one year as possible.
M.O.: arrive, do something incredibly stupid, lose temper, lie about previous lives, order a pizza.
Description - tall, ginger, Candian. prone to sporadic outbursts of rage and pizza-throwing. Often spotted trying to use expensive western appliances on the wrong sockets or saying "come with me if you want to live."

DO NOT APPROACH THIS MAN!
If you spot him, find your nearest bent copper, give him 50,000, point him in the right direction and run away.

Coming soon (very soon, in all likelihood!) to a school near you:

THE TOMINATOR XXXXVVVVXII

Starring Big T as "The Man With No Brain".

An action-packed comedy adventure of epic proportions, with one or two really scary moments thrown in.

Remember......... You can run, but you can't teach.

Can you post photos on these boards?
I'm sure Opo has some of the Tominator to complete the Wanted poster, though he was very camera-shy... rather like a rabid orang-utan running away from lightning.

I hope this works, It's the best pic I have of the Big-T hopefully it shows up here if not check out the URL. This pic is the wild man in his prime. His hair has has been cut short and has been died a splended ginger color. He has changed his appearence to avoid capture in Canada he is on Canada's most retarted list. He came to Indonesia to avoid extradition. Approach with caution.[/img]

I'm afraid he's the Wild Man of Java now - last seen in Jakarta clutching his trusty copy of "Teach Yourself - Teaching English as a Foreign Language" (I kid you not!). Like I said, coming soon to a school near you...

After months of painstaking tracking, bribing, undercover operations and sitting about bored in malls, I've made the spot of the century (well, of the weekend, at least).

Dr. Stip Livingstone, tracker extra-ordinaire and teacher ordinaire, spotted the elusive, yet ferocious and poorly-camouflaged 'Wild Man of Sumatra', otherwise known (in nutcase-spotting circles) as Tommus maximus.

Thought to be the first of the upright mammals to have developed the use of a Pizza-Hut pizza as a weapon, TK Max was seen making haste through the open habitat of Plaza Senayan on Friday evening.
Unfortunately, due to a lack of photographic equipment, this spotting has yet to be confirmed by the People's Enterprise for Nutters In Senayan, though they have started to prepare the ritual sacrifice of a member of EF front-desk staff to the beast (King Kong-style), just in case a new rampage begins.

Take great pains to avoid eye contact, especially in areas around bread-based-based food products.

I think this guy only rocked up after I left, but I'd like to see a photo of him all the same. Sounds like a nutter.

...that bad? If not, it seems a bit unfair to malign the guy on a public forum that potential recruiters might see.

Just my two-Rupiah worth...

Fair point, Atoms, though it's not really malignant - just banter. We haven't used his full name, and I'll leave him alone. But yes, that bad.

Definitely that bad! If a school was soooooo bad like that would you protest that it shouldn't be maligned in case potential recruits read about it?

I thought not.

Of course not! After all, I used to work for one...

"Hold on," said Dr. Livingstone, tongue planted firmly in cheek. "I've got it - my first communication from the Wild Man!"

"How do you figure that?" asked Gugelhupf, his fellow tracker.

"Well, I just saw a message from Atoms for Peace and I think he's our man!"

"Really? How?"

"Think about it this way - Atom is really A-Tom."

"Aaaaah...", said the The Hupf, partially stealing his nickname from David Hasselhoff.

"But wait, there's more," said the Doc, eye's half focussed from handling a dodgy frog in a dissection prac with his proteges. "You see 'for' can be written in teeny-bopper text language as '4', and we all know that means 'love'"

"So... Tom loves peace - doesn't sound too close to the legend to me.."

"You see, that's the clincher. That was his cunning stunt - Peace isn't peace at all!"

"What?"

"No... it's PIZZA!"

"AAAAAHHHH - Tom Loves Pizza! Wow, Livingstone, how do you do it?"

"Frogs, my friend. Frogs", he replied, removing his tongue from his cheek and revealing the dubious purple stain left by the skin of a Sundanese Trouser Frog.

Have a nice weekend.
