So, How do i get the gremlin from the computer in a bag safely, and what material should I use to wrap it in? (it's started gnawing the bag already and i had to wrap steel mesh around it... though that's gonna B expensive to mail it to my buddy).

And what cars are favourite among car gremlins?

to answer your questions here.... you can get a new computer, if you bang the bag and the gremlin and the computer together enough.... the gremlin will get his teeth knocked out so biting wont hurt. but as to the severe lack of trees???

is your computer desk made of metal oak pine or what? if its not a press board pine desk, it will work too.

and you can always ship it Cash on delivery. that way your friend pays the post

On to Car gremlins. Their favorite cars are Volvo's. the car gremlin is a sub species, with many breeds within the classification.

battery, brake, tire, trunk, radiator, axle, electrical, hood, paint, and of course the ever elusive... bumper gremlin. The reason Volvo's are considered their favorites is because EVERY single breed(yes, all ten) of car gremlin is found in them. While for instance Toyota only has 2 breeds and Ford only has 5.

Oddly enough, no fan belt gremlins have ever been discovered, we think perhaps they went extinct.

Happy gremlin hunting to all!

ps: the "vacation" gremlin will be attacking me, so dont be surprised if i dont respond much for a week or so.

I think perhaps i should explain how gremlin classification works....

The original "gremlin" was around a few thousand years ago and just like dogs and wolves, it has bred, and evolved and changed to suit different invironments. Much because of the human population, it now is so diffrent from the original gremlin is gets its own Genus.

for instance, a "Sock gremlin" is actually just a breed of "house Gremlin". The "Garden gremlin" also has several breeds, as well as a "car gremlin." The "Office" gremlins are closely related to the "House" gremlins.

So a Wolf is like the original gremlin, a sporting dog is like a car gremlin and a toy breed is much like a house gremlin. Looking at it that way, can you see why there are so many different gremlins?

OH NO!!! not Volvo's please?

But then, they seem quite Gremlin resistant. They usually don't break down. But maybe that's because Volvo's are a swedish brand and as we all know, Sweden is the home of trolls, and other strange creatures. Maybe the gremlins are also originated from Sweden? Good question. Where do gremlins come from and how come they adapt so quickly to strange and possibly hostile environments and do so well? (Exept the fan belt gremlin, I think it has existed for very short as a subspecies)? :twisted:

And my desk is made out of beech, my other desk is made out of... Dunno really, but i do have some really heavy massive oak doors here which I found in the wall recently. I guess they will do? And i really dont want to bash my computer against it... It's big, its heavy, it's expensive... Also it seems that bank account gremlins are toubling me recently. Maybe some kind of sleeping gas will work?

as yet we dont know where gremlins come from originally. Trolls, are from sweden, but only one breed comes from there. the "true" troll actually comes from Finland. It has several "bastard" breeds in surrounding countries. But I am off track, my troll studies ended several years ago when a work associate was EATEN by a maurading tree troll.

Antyway.... normal sleepy gas wont work. BUT if you heavily lace a vanilla rum cake with a little belladonna, the gremlin will sleep like a baby for a few hours. the problum is getting the gremlin to take the bait.

make the cake as loudly as possible. simply crash pots and pans around and exclaim loudly how happy you are this cake cooked up just right, then leave the cake near the computer. UNCOVER the computer before you leave!! you do not want to be home when the gremlin comes out. you do however want to be home within an hour or so of it eating the cake!!!! it wears off quick, so dont put the cake out before leaving for the whole day ok?

once he is asleep, gently lift him into a carrier bag or metal box and do whatever it is you wish to do to him.

about the whole volvo thing.... if your car happens to be in good shape... count yourself lucky, soon, very soon the gremlins will realize there is a vacancy in there and move in. some volvos go for years before any gremlins move in.

happy hunting!

this is the vacationing psycho pixie signing off.

OH!!! I almost forgot... Just because the Gremlins are there, doesnt mean they will cause you trouble right away. gremlins are known to hibernate for months before desiding to wake up, streatch their little claws and toes, then attack the nearest choice bit of stuff.

they are also notorious pack rats.

tata for now!
