Tukadar Barney

[tuky]

My daughter wants me to buy her a barney doll, I have never seen one.

Have any of you folks come accross one anywhere? My daughter really loves him and I think she would love the doll.

Tuky:

If she can wait a couple of months, I should be able to locate one for her here in Saudi. I won't be coming back until perhaps May or June though.

I'll look around here and let you know but I know of no place in LOS that sells them.

Are you sure you want to give her a Barney doll ?

"Barney has been linked to the Number of the Beast with this widely-distributed rationale of indeterminate origin:

1. Barney is well-described with the following phrase:

CUTE PURPLE DINOSAUR

2. The old Latin alphabet used the letter 'V' in place of 'U', therefore the above phrase is modified to:

CVTE PVRPLE DINOSAVR

3. Letters that do not represent Roman numerals are removed:

CV-- -V--L- DI----V-

4. Add up the Roman numerals of the remaining letters:

C + V + V + L + D + I + V

100 + 5 + 5 + 50 + 500 + 1 + 5 = 666, which is the Number of the Beast.

5. Therefore, Barney is Satan."

There are a slew of anti-Barney sites out there, and some revised song lyrics that I can't post here. The prevailing opinion on the 'net seems to be..............

KILL BARNEY !!!!

I have always said the best way to interrogate terrorists is to lock them up and play the Barney Song over and over.

That will make anybody scream for mercy.

But if she still wants one, let me know and I will try and find one.

Thanks mate,

I will see if I can find one around the traps. If not I may take you up on that offer.

I was gonna get her a Noddy doll, but he is gay. Donald duck doesn't wear pants so that is off limits too. The tellytubbies are supposed to be gay as well so I decided on the Evil Barney doll.

We actually sing the Barney song together before bed.
