I am considering changing my name. MacGuffin I'll be, Stella MacGuffin.

It'll be great. Everyone will think I'm so important. Like, "Fantastic, Stella MacGuffin's here! Now this thing's really rolling." There will be a big fuss and everyone will get all excited, and it'll only be when the whole thing's over in a big mess that some particularly astute and sensitive observer will begin to suspect that in fact throughout the whole thing I was not, at any point, any help at all. That in fact I may actually have vanished completely some time in the middle there when everyone else was distracted, on a train headed for Monaco. But no one will care about that, because I'm Stella MacGuffin, and before the nice casino people can question where the money went, I'll have already moved on to my next amazing, talk-of-the-season, no-one-can-lose project.

Yeah, that's the way to be. Become a MacGuffin.

You'll be loved and admired, the centre of attention always and the inspiration and motivation of all you encounter. An eternal mystery, always desirable, allusive by definition. No one ever remembering you long enough to catch on to the reality of how incompetent and insignificant you really are.

Yeah, man, the ultimate free ride.

how in the hell do that kitten's movements have anything to do with the concepts "allusive and motivational"?

apart from that, i'm so on board. even with the catching-a-train-to-monaco-from-australia thing. although you could make it a party bus

Look. I'll level with you. I just picked a kitten, okay. I didn't really think it through. But, I guess, okay, lets look at it this way: They're all, "Ohmygod look at all this stuff that I am doing, all because of you and your awesomely inspiring motivational powers!", and I'll be all, "Oh p-shaw, it was nothing," and wave my hand just as, you may notice, the cat is doing. HA!

Monaco defies geographic constraints. It is that great idealised mirage in the distance of everyone's mind. Not least because I don't actually know where it is. I think maybe Europe? Or South America? Or Africa, maybe? Possibly near Russia - or that may be Moscow. Anyway. Thus, being as it is at once nowhere and everywhere, one can reach the great mythical country city land of Monaco from anywhere. QED. And you are certainly welcome to join me and the MacGuffin cause there, especially if you bring me a Guns'N'Roses party bus.

Hell, you are welcome to my first born and all my earthly possessions if you bring me a Guns'N'Roses party bus. Organise a Slash hat and wig and I'll throw in my entire Kinder Surprise toy collection.

It's a tiny eeny section of coastline surrounded by France near the Italian border.

I just can't help myself with geography. I have a thing. They prescribe me maps and everything.
