Maybe he was never really here at all. Maybe it was a Mirage.

Before the guy with something up his nose fogs me - FOG. It is never, not ne4ver - even though I don't always hit the keys squarely.

I was waiting to see if you'd notice.

SURE. I believe that and I also believe in ghosts.

Are you suggesting that I, a Nebula Primum of the 1st order, would not have noticed such a blatant faux pas?

"Nebula Primum of the 1st order" ??????

Dang, and here I have been thinking you were a rodent all this time, not a has-been star. But a "has-been" may very well be apt. Now, thou be just an old reprobate.

Oh dear. You're displaying your ignorance of the classics yet again. Nebula is Latin for mist, cloud or FOG!

But a nebula is also the name applied to a star that has run out of energy and implodes - this is just a silly quibble to keep from recognizing the brilliant pun I made.

You refuse to recognize anyone's good jabs, only your own. How outré, sir, I say how outré!

Poppycock & balderdash! It is obvious to anyone with more than 3 braincells that I had put a Latin phrase and that it should be interpreted as such.

That is what G.B. does, declares victory and retreats. Appears to be in their breeding.

Quite right - we don't go around enslaving Egyptians, Indians, etc., etc. Nor do we transport people against their will for menial crimes just to populate a land.

No, you had enough African slaves.

I don't think many Aussies would complain that their ancestors had been shipped out there. It's a wonderful country full of drunken yahoos singing bawdy songs and doing unmentionable things to koalas.
