SECRET TRANSCRIPT OF CONVERSATION BETWEEN THE ROYAL CHAMBERLIN AND THE SERGEANT AT ARMS. Given to His Majesty circa 1725.

SGT: "M'lord, Baron Igor of the diplomatic corps most humbly begs audience to present something called Plan Rainbow."

RC: "Did he pay you?"

SGT: "Yes, m'lord."

RC: "How much?"

SGT: "Twenty five gold pieces m'lord."

RC: "Tis not enough. Go demand more"

(SGT exits office. Returns several minutes later, shaking and sweating.)

SGT: "Mmmm'lord. He, (long pause), says he will not pay one pence more."

RC: "WHAT? The idiot must have lost his marbles again!"

SGT: "M'lord, he sayeth that the time of the corrupt court is nearing an end."

RC: "WHAT? The idiot hath lost all the marbles! Go fetch the Executioner, methinks there is business for him."

SGT: "M'lord that would not be wise."

RC: "WHAT? Thou art as daft as Igor!"

SGT: "M'lord thou hearing apears to be failing. But Baron Igor claims the patronage of the Soul Warrior and that he hath returned!"

RC: "A tale to frighten naughty children. Balderdash."

SGT: "M'lord, he produced the signet ring of the Warrior. It is here."

Transcript ends suddenly as secret scribe kicks over candle, igniting fire in the chambers. Royal Chamberlin found dead with an unusual tatoo

Jane was famished.
someone told her that someday, her prince will come.
he was supposed to ride a white whale skin caddy and wear a purple hat.
she loved purple. it was her favavorite colour.

she kept waiting, even though all her friends told her she was crazy.
and in a manner of speaking - she was.
who would, in thier right mind, hope to out do a scandinavian god and the simplicity that is simply - igor?
no one.

but she was adamant.
her prince will come for her, and then they will all regret taunting her!!!

she decided that she had to take some action though.
she was already 34, and her friends have all found mates and even :eek: got kids.
she would have none of that. she was a virgin, waiting for her prince.
but biology works in weird ways, and all she could here these days was the great chiming bells of the cathedral go:
Ding Dong, Ding Dong, Ding Dong,

so she went to consult her rabbi.

after a few minutes of talking to Jane, Rabbi Moses decided he had heard enough.

You're crazy child! simply K.N.U.T.S.
go home, listen to your mom. she knows best.
trust me when i say youll be married within 3 months.

as she left the rabbi's office she saw a poster, in which a handsome, dashing, young artist called ELVIS was shown.

what a marvel, she sighed, i will never meet such a marvelous man, NEVER.

that night, her best friend Ofra, called her.
Guess what i've got?
what?, sighed the lovesick Jane, what can possibly cheer me up?
you wont believe me, but in the shop? as in right now?
WHAT?
its that new guy, signing his LPs. Hes SOOO cute.
you must get here.
NOW.
and wear something nice.

23 minutes later.
Jane enters the shop, sees ELVIS, swoons and feints.

2 minutes after that, she wakes up, looking straight into those beutiful brown eyes.

several moments pass in silence.

hi, Im Elvis.
i know. im jane.
yeah. you ok?
i am now (with a wean smile)
care for a cake? you fell, and the medic her says its sugar you need.
thanks. i would love to have some cake with you.

3 months pass and the happy couple is married.

it is believed that within a year they shall make he dream of so many young girls come true,
building a shrine to the impossibilty of love at first sight.

info -
medicine in. radio (and rock and roll) in 3.
peace in our times.
declined Asoka's attempt to lure us into an arabian war.
built some units, more happy and cash builds.

coverted York to Judaism.
we have a great Sci in timbuktu waiting for something. oops. he joined it as a super spec.
 
An Elvis sighting!! :eek: Always a pleasure to see the Soul Dude back in the mix!
 
That's fine, Methos. I won't have time 'till this weekend.
 
Sorry guys. I got paged out over the weekend (frickin' pager). Skip me, please.
 
I will be gone from the 14th through the 21st so I'll need a skip here as well. :cool:
 
If I can get to it tonight, I will, but no promises. My band's pretty darn busy this week prepping for a show.
