#1752 (1753?)<br />You come back to this board after quite some time and note disturbingly that no one has written anything since your last message.

#1753 You wonder if you accidentally caused this thread to grind to a halt.

#1754 You decide to do something about it by adding a series of Thief clues you kept wanting to post but kept forgetting to all this time.

Therefore...

#1755 You visit the famous Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, and while touring it you are CONVINCED that you hear Viktoria's giggling echoing through the house!

#1756 You also expect to see trees in the house while touring it.

#1757 And booby-trapped doors.

#1758 And vines growing out of the ceiling and the like!

#1759 You ask the tour guide "So when do we get to see Constantine's sword display?"

#1760 You later take the garden tour and wonder why you can't find any glowing mushrooms.

#1761 On the way out, you ask the staff where the previous Thief visitor hid all the unconscious guards.

#1762 But your biggest disappoint was that there was NO GIANT ROOM, so you couldn't find the giant coin...and you were hoping to use it to finally pay off your college loan! <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

This one actually HAPPENED TO ME TODAY! Now things get WILDER:

You go to the premiere of the new "Harry Potter" movie, and the following things occur:

#1765 You see the trailer for the new "Scooby Doo" movie, and before you realize what the trailer is for (since you don't find out until the end), you watch the footage and think "HEY! It looks exactly like I'm playing a game of Thief!"

#1766 Your hopes rise as you wonder if maybe, just maybe, a Thief movie was OKed...

#1767 ...only to be dashed the moment Scooby Doo appears on the screen.

#1768 You see the scene that shows Hogwarts off in the distance, and you think "Hey, looks like it could be the exterior for a really cool Thief board!"

#1769 You watch the scenes involving the towering changing staircases and wonder that the idea wasn't used for Constantine's mansion.

#1770 You suddenly realise what a pain such a section would be to play, because there are NO SHADOWS!

#1771 You watch the footage of Harry using the invisibility cloak, and all you can think of is Silent Sleep's excellent FM featuring you going up against renegade keepers. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

#1772 You watch as Harry uses the invisibility cloak to sneak through a library of books, immediately study all the shadows and obstacles present on instinct and think, "Now if *I* was doing that, here's how *I* would do it... just like in Thief..."

And last, but certainly not least...

#1773 You watch the scene where Hagrid pulls out the egg, and the first thing it reminds you of is the frogbeast eggs you normally keep in your Thief 2 inventory!

#1774 You observe the baby dragon, and chuckle to yourself because you keep expecting it to explode at any moment. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

<br />I normally don't think of Thief when watching movies, but today... well, just had to put those up. <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> <br /> <img src="graemlins/laff.gif" border="0" alt="[Laff]" />

"Computer snack food" for you can be nothing but apples, carrots, bread, and deer legs (bologna will do right?).

Well, I guess I'll have to contribute
