Your Mission, Should You Accept It...
is to draw a Malarkey
This thread won't help you at all, so don't bother viewing it. Just draw what you think/know a Malarkey looks like and enter it into this amazing competition.
All entries will be judged on the 31st August 2008 by a host of celebrity artists including Banksy, Damien Hirst and Grace Slick who'll get so rat-arsed as to forget to inform the winner. Everyone else will know but not the winner.
So if you've not been informed that you've won by the 1st September, then you can relax in the warm inner feeling that you're a fantastic artist and the art worlds supreme being.

I'll try again.
Ah! it works. The original image was 800 pix, that's why it wouldn't accept it.

When we were kids my parents always blamed "the man from Liverpool" for disasters their offspring denied any knowledge of Frances. Well at least we both see him/it as green and jolly!
And a key to a special kingdom from Sledge. A key within a key. Wouldn't that then be a Malarkeykey, of polynesian origin possibly?

It's a key manufactured by Eric Malar & Son. Therefore known as Malar 'key'...
"Where's the Malar Key.."
Malar is infact a little known thick syrupy alcoholic liquor produced from the boiling of and then subsiquent fermenting of the 'Malarberry', the fruit from a rare tree which grows in the Northern Tropical rainforests of Eastern Australia. The berries are collected only after that have past through the digestive system of the 'Drop Bear' (A tree dwelling kangaroo known as a Drop Bear due to it's habit of jumping down from high branches to the forest floor). The Drop Bear digests only the hard crust (which protects the Malarberry from insect attack) and expells the fruit. This process is important for the successfull germination of the tiny seed at the centre of the fruit.
The Malar Tree bears it's fruit only once each 7 years.
Due to the rarety of the Malar Tree (and sometimes difficult location), the 7 year fruiting cycle, the labour intensive task of collecting and washing the berries, followed by the lenghty cooking process in specially made ceramic coated 'Boiling' pots, then the final fermentation which takes one lunar month in temperature controlled granite lined tanks - Malar is extremely expensive.
*Note that collectors of Malarberries are instructed to leave enough berries on the forest floor to germinate and grow into new Malar trees.
Consumed in only small amounts, the high alcohol content and special ingredients of Malar can only be tolerated by a few, infact, some say that consuming Malar will lead to profound enlightenment and for these reasons (not to mention the high cost) Malar is kept under tight lock and Key in purpose built Malar chests constructed from the wood of the Malar tree itself. To date only one locksmith produces the lock and key which secures the Malar Liqour, Eric Malar & Son. The key to the chest is known as the 'Malar Key'.
Consumers of Malar are known for their rosey complexions and habit of grinding their teeth.
