I'll answer points raised in order, military briefing style.
Momus, enough! I don't need you to compound my extreme feelings of inadequacy with your fancy HTML skillz as well!
That is not in fact an HTML pop-up menu, Nordicskillz, it's just pleased to see you.
Okay, so Cynthia Plaster Caster's given us the fully flaccid version. Momus, himself, has given us the semi-erect "morning wood" version. Who's going to stand the soldier up straight for us now?
Morning wood is exactly what you see in the satellite photo, Maria, as the ruffled hair also indicates. The unit will be deployed when and where we see fit. For operational reasons we can't give details right now.
Momus' penis resembles a headless, limbless sausage dog.
That is deliberate, Wyndham. For deep cover operations, we feel that many different identities are the way to go. We sometimes even use clothes for this purpose.
Ok, show of hands, who's having a small penis day all of a sudden?
Kenan, you'll probably have heard Secretary Rumsfeld talk about our ambitions for a smaller, more responsive deployment force in the future. So consider yourself 'ahead of your time'.
AAAAGH! MY EYES! MY EYES!
IT BURRRRRNNNSSS! MAKE THE HORRRRRORRRR STOOPPPPPPP!
There may still be chemical or biological weapons in the area, Lord Custos, so keep your protective goggles on at all times.
Speaking of eyes, am I the only person that noticed that Momus appears to have two of them in this picture?
That is correct, Millar, Momus has two eyes, but only one is functional at this moment.
(Does anybody have any welders gel and some bactine? Maybe some sterile bandages and morphine if it's not too much trouble.
Apply to the medical tent, on your left outside the briefing stage, Epsilon.
What I'm wondering is if Momus is so hung (and why should I doubt it), why would he feel the need to digitally enhance himself further?
Although it is digital, no enhancement whatsoever has been made to this image. We want to give you guys as realistic a picture as we can.
Momus looks a bit like Serge Gainsbourg in this picture.
The French singer? That is not an appropriate comment and you will be punished for it. Next!
it looks like a lucien freud painting
Lucien who? I'm sorry, I'll have to consult and get back to you on that one. Next!
and momus, you're hot.
We hope to wrap this campaign up before things get really hot in the next couple of months. There's only so much sand you can get in the machinery before it breaks down.
Is it wrong that whenever I look at the picture (and I think I have at least 6 times today for reference) I keep imagining one little googly eye and an eyepatch on his penis?
Carey, we're always looking for new design ideas, perhaps you might like to submit technical drawings to the First Chief Officer.
Jesus no wonder you're famous, I knew it couldn't be the music
That is an issue, Dan. We find that when you wheel out the big weapons and mount a campaign like this one to 'shock and awe' you get a 'master identity' which tends to obscure all the humanitarian and relief work, all the reconstruction and rebuilding that follows. But when war is over it's time to concentrate on music, art and peace. We're looking at the technology required to make new people. Some of you may be able to go embedded on that story.
