It was a nail bitter, but rikboyee surged in the final minutes of the race to take the prize for this week — an autographed copy of Robert J. Sawyer’s newest novel Rollback. Cool! And he did it with coolest words of the week like unsuitorble and liet to popcult. And this is Rikboyee’s second big win! Last time was when we offered up a copy of the Kurt Vonnegut novel Cat;s Cradle. Coincidence? We think not. Obviously Rikboyee is motivated by great writers. Congratulations!

President Bush, who thought that all seniors should be equipped with semi-automatic weapons, but settled for tasers.

SUDDENLY – Garrison Sergeant Major Davis kicked in the front door and exclaimed, “What in Heaven’s name have you done to my turkey?!” Apparently, there’d been so mix-up at the grocery store, when Mrs. Peterson, the local notary, had stumbled upon what she believed to be an indispensable clue as to the identity of the pharmacy technician counterspy responsible for stealing Grandpa’s hormones from the bakery, but then she remembered that an elderly woman in the photo department had given her a picture of a cat with a hospital wristband engaged in some sort of illicit act with a gooseberry cobbler from the deli.

“I can smell something burning, Sar’major Davis, you really must desist from spreading your wedding tackle with coconut oil and sunbaking. You’ll come to a nasty end! and it sets a worrisome example for the young uns.” Just then Grandpa came to muttering about pineapples at twice the speed of light, being relatively generally unified and not supporting string theory at all. “Eureka” he announced to the assembly who were still clutching their guts and trying to avoid slipping in what they had just voided. “Kate you must not marry this progenitorturer, until he returns triumphant from a quest.

Only then shall the turkey, the cat, Kate, her progenitorturer, Grandma, Grandpa, old widow Jones, Garrison Sergeant Major Davis, Mrs. Peterson the notary, and the rest of the unnamed characters in this story, who we will assume also includes a disgruntled Ma and a dipsomaniac Pa, as well as a few aunts, uncles, and cousins, truly be free. The end. We hope.
