Bud Parr Launches Metaxu Cafe
A new literary site, Metaxu Cafe, is officially open for business today, writes Nigel Newton for the Druidical & Literary. “Many high quality bloggers are part of Metaxu Cafe. Here in Wellington Leg, The Dutchess will conduct a seminar on litblogging to be held at the Earl’s tonight at 7pm. Pizza and Newcastle Brown will be served in the refectory, catered by Mrs. Frothingmunster.”
This reporter spoke with the Earl, whose author tour is on hold pending repairs to the Vintage Volvo. “Bud Parr is to be congratulated,” said the Earl. “I think the idea is brilliant and the site has the look and feel of a quality broadsheet.” The Earl went on to complain, off the record, that DCI Borchardt’s trumped up charges have forced him to rent out his house ‘for commercial purposes.’ One has only to look to the Tower where Mrs. Anderson-Cooper, Prosecutrix, is sharpening her axe.
The earl will be beheaded in the Tower’s famed Courtyard if convicted in the Thuringian Dressmaker case, reports Anthony Spears-Farnham of the Home Office. “We’re working on a televised event,” he said. Spears-Farnham is in touch with Donald Trump who may ‘underwrite the cost of the beheading.’ A change of venue to Las Vegas, Nevada, is highly unlikely according to sources close to the Prosecutrix. “There are traditions involved,” she said.
DCI Borchardt remains confident that Lothar Goetterdaemerung’s body will be recovered, despite the inteference from the Earl and his cronies. “The introduction of hundreds of live hogs is a complication…thus far, they have ignored stern warnings including new signage throughout the crime scene.” The police have been hampered by a shortage of yellow tape as well as inclement weather.
