Hugo?

Yeah, Lefty?

Why are we talking without quotation marks?

Have you tried typing on the iPad screen?

At least there's a spell checker.

I guess. We need to get out of here. I don't really trust that pyro guy.

He came with good references.

I think that what they said was that he didn't burn his own house down last ime.

That's a god start. Besides, with a name like Pooh, he's bound to be a good person.

Yeah, but I really don't fancy the smell of burnt feathers.

Can we stop at the concession stand and get some popcorn?

I suppose.

Hugo, why don't you use the Bluetooth keyboard?

badgoodDeb · 07-02-2010, 03:09 PM

Cuz that costs more, and it's an extra gadget to haul around! (Lefty and Hugo, in unison)

Gee, I sure could use another installment of this. Maybe if I close my eyes and wish really hard....

GeoffC · 08-04-2010, 10:51 AM

What's doing doggie ?

vivaldirules · 08-04-2010, 01:37 PM

Just patiently waiting for another installment. They have occurred at random intervals out of the blue in the past so I was just hoping another might fall from the sky....oh, I don't know.....how about today?

GeoffC · 08-04-2010, 02:54 PM

Lets try the usual trick ....

knock knock .....

vivaldirules · 08-05-2010, 02:24 PM

Maybe you need to try again, Geoff.

GeoffC · 08-06-2010, 04:35 AM

Okay ....

knock .... knock ...... knock .....

"Come...in!" said Montsnmags, as he adjusted the diamond cufflinks on his tuxedo shirt. He yanked at the too tight collar of his shirt and once again vowed to cut back a bit on the French pastries. Nothing from the door where the insistent knocking was coming from.

"I...said, come in!" Nothing.

He went to the door and jerked it open. There was no one in the hallway of the cheap hotel they had checked into. He looked up and down the hallway. Nothing. He heard a noise at his feet and jumped back in alarm as a cat sauntered his way into the room.

"You're a fine little... pussycat," muttered the doctor, looking once more into the hallway. Maybe the knocking was coming from another time continuum. But he had solved that problem, he thought. I just required rapid shifting in and out of the time stream quickly enough to avoid getting sucked into the void.

That and having Adrian hanging around most of the time. He really got annoyed sometimes when he thought that his childhood imaginary friend had more friends than he did. But that was the price one pays for living "life" in a multi-temporal phase shift all the time.

The cat jumped up on the dresser and sat staring at him. Like he was expecting something.

"What... do you want?"

More stares.

"Would you... like to be a talking cat?" One never knew. Some day he would have an actual volunteer, rather than "volunteers."

The cat look disdainful and managed to convey that mere speech was far beneath him. More staring.

"Look, you... will have to take that up with the director. He... is the one who has been spending all the budget filming butterflies and hummingbirds lately. All i want... is to get the story over so I can move on to Mexico City for a... while."

The cat rolled his eyes and jumped down off the dresser and walked disgustedly out the open door.

"Well, that... was strange." Montsnmags grabbed his jacket and headed out the door for his appointment with destiny. Or at least $50,000 worth of it.

GeoffC · 08-06-2010, 09:15 AM

[ps The right knock obviously works]

vivaldirules · 08-06-2010, 10:41 AM

Yes! Thank you, pshwynkies. I needed that. (doggie sets timer for next installment) Guys, how many minutes are in a jiffy?
