    Once upon a time, Serenity was walking through the mists of time and
    space when she ran across a handsome young prin ... er, cowboy. He was
    tall dark and handsome!
    
    He looked Serenity up and down slowly, then he went to one knee and
    said, "Hello, Su, er, Ja, er Serenity!"
    
    Serenity laughed and said, "Oh Neb! How did you know me? I changed my
    name, I changed the way I look, I even changed my religion! Ben! How
    did you know it was me??"
    
    The breeze played through the mists, making them into spiraling columes
    of pastels as Ben laughed and replied .....

     Good Gawd! The Beauty Is Still On Duty!!!
139.3ZEKE::GALESerenityWed Aug 11 1993 07:408
    Serenity giggles at such a silly statement. Just them through the mists
    came Joe riding a huge black horse. He looked at Serenity, "Gee, you
    look familiar."
    
    He looked at Ben, and decided that looking at Serenity was easier so he
    returned his gaze to her.
    
    The horse stood by placidly while ...
139.4Mental toss FlycoonELMAGO::BENBACANeb, thats me!Wed Aug 11 1993 07:538
    ...Serenity pondered the signifance of short person behavior, in pedal
    depressed pancromatic resonance, and other highly ambient domains.
    
    Meanwhile, Ben looks over at Joes horse and says "I'm gonna buy me a
    horse, just about this big and ride him all along the boarder line, with
    a pair of heavy duty zircon incrusted tweezers in my hand, all the gals
    will say I'm mighty grand.....I'm moving to Montana soon, cause I'm Gonna 
    be a dental floss tycoon.....
139.5ZEKE::GALESerenityWed Aug 11 1993 08:1210
    Ben pulled a slip of paper from his back pocket and said,
    
    "Yup .... mental floss, dental floss, accidental floss, and any other
    floss you can think of. Montana, sky country, that's the palce for me!"
    
    Michelle peeped from behind a tree and said, "Accidental floss? How
    much?"
    
    Joe and Ben turned towards the newcomer with big happy grins and
    simutaneously replied in unison ;) ....
139.6I18N::MICHELLETot de schijt ons doodtWed Aug 11 1993 08:187
    ...no charge for newcomers...
    
    Michelle wasn't really *sure* what accidental floss was... but was
    trusting enough to want to find out.....
    
    :)
    
139.7ELMAGO::BENBACANeb, thats me!Wed Aug 11 1993 08:258
     Oh Oh, Spegetti Oh's!  "Dern! I thought it was Dental Floss" replied
    Ben to Joe. Joe let out a big Y*A*W*N* and went to sleep. Not even
    Serenity could wake him up. Michelle waited for a response from either
    Ben or Joe as to how much the mental Toss ..er Accidental Floss would
    cost her - "50 cents an a foot"-  Ben blurts out as he tried to wake Joe
    up but Joe was out.     
    
    Just then over the horizon came....
139.8ELMAGO::BENBACANeb, thats me!Wed Aug 11 1993 08:591
    The sand man I guess, everyone has gone to sleep.......
139.9I am not the sandman....CSC32::D_ROYERChi beve birra campa cent'anni.Thu Aug 12 1993 00:1215
    Nah, I am not the Sandman, I am the WIZARD, and I am riding
    my pet dragon, called Speck.  I have just put you into a gentle
    sleep spell, and I am checking for the terms of Accidental 
    Floss.
    
    I do not find it in my notebook computer book of spells.  You can
    now all awake refreshed and feeling clean of mind and body.
    
    The horses are still asleep as they could be spooked by the 
    presense of Speck.  
    
    So good friends, I am of to another majikal adventure in the next
    realm...   Adios, auf wiedersehen!
    
    
139.10ELMAGO::BENBACANeb, thats me!Thu Aug 12 1993 04:2541
    ...at that very moment Ben woke up and cried, "HOLY COW! WHAT A DREAM
    I HAD!" He proceeded to tell Serenity about the WIZARD and his pet
    dragon called Speck. Serenity looked Ben and she grined and rolled
    her eyes and thought to herself, "this guys got some imagination."
    That wasn't a dream, that was Dave Royer and his horse Speck.
    
    Meanwhile, Joe was still asleep, dreaming about Cherie, M-L,
    Valerie, Ann, /gina, /jen and of course Serenity! Serenity decided to wake
    Joe but he was so tired that he ignored Serenity. He was too deep into
    his delicious dream and didn't want to spoil it.
                              
    Serenity grinned as she watched Joe's facial expressions as he kept
    dreaming.
    
    While this was happening, Ben and Dave were talking about the
    accidental floss and Ben showed Dave a sample. Ben said again that he
    was moving to Montana soon to be a Mental Toss Flycoon..er ..Dental
    Floss aka Accidental Floss Tycoon. Dave was not impressed. Dave then
    told Ben that Python Boots were a much better business to get into. 
    
    Just then Ben, who was himself was wearing Python boots, said ...
    
    My Python Boots are to tight
    Couldn't get em off last night
    A week has gone by
    And now is July,(August)
    And Serenity cried
    
    YOU'VE GOT STINKFOOT!! 
    
    Then Dave said
    
    Can you rinse it off do you suppose?
    
    "Yes" Serenity said, "just go down to the creek and rinse your
    feet Ben. You'll be good as gold." 
    
    While Ben was rinsing the stinkfoot off his feet...... 
           
                                                               
    
139.11LEVERS::WOODFORDWake me when it's overThu Aug 12 1993 16:2315
    
    ...While ben was washing the stinkfoot off his feet, he decided that he
    might as well get undressed and take a full bath in the fresh cold
    water.  He placed his clothes neatly under a tree, and entered the cold
    realm.  Just at that moment, Terrie and Gina appeared out of nowhere
    and stole all of Ben's clothes.
    
    There he was in the water buck naked, and now with no means of escape.
    As he was trying to think of a way out of the situation, along came
    /gina and Lori.  They were thrilled to find that Ben was in such a
    predicament.  They put their lawn chairs on the edge of the water
    trying to coax him to join them.
    
    What was Ben to do?!?....
    
139.12obvious oneRDGENG::CARAUXWhen u r the best, u can't be modestThu Aug 12 1993 16:3715
    Well, Ben, in fact as every male with lot of commone sense went
    naturally to the two girls 
    
    and as he reached them, 
    
    stunned one of the two and took her clothes but obviously it was the 
    wrong size so left the clothes and 
    
    wanted to stun the other one but then again the girl had fled when she
    had seen the violence of such a powerful male so he
    
    disappeared in the nature running not to catch a cold. Then he met two 
    martians who were quite civilized I must say, not as the four previous and 
    they decided to take him home. And then the story of Ben in the space 
    really started.
139.13LEVERS::WOODFORDWake me when it's overThu Aug 12 1993 16:4410
    
    
    They used Ben in many scientific experiments, and he got great pleasure
    out of all of this...
    
    
    Especially when they made him fornicate with several different martian
    women to see his reaction to their type of love-making, which was very
    unlike the human way in that they.........
    
139.14I won't keep on on BenRDGENG::CARAUXWhen u r the best, u can't be modestThu Aug 12 1993 17:3027
    
    thought it would be a great idea if they tried a couple of human female
    and found interesting the fact there were two specimens down on earth
    on the side of one completely useless as still stunned.
    
    Well so they took Terrie and Gina aboard their special ship and made
    real life test :
    
    Love making of course
    
    Cooking
    
    Ironing
    
    Washing the dishes
    
    washing the clothes
    
     DIYing
    
    and finally decided they could be some good slaves but then again they
    didn't realize their mistake as they didn't know the females'character.
    So began the long and ended story of the poor Martians trying to
    convince Terrie and Gina to go home. they then were back home...
    
    We've forgotten to say that those nice martians gave some clothes to
    our Ben.

    However the clothing from Mars, was a bit special, it becomes invisable
    when exposed to Earth Atmosphere.
    
    So we find our hero Ben, walking along to who knows where... Not in the
    direction of Montana for sure.  
    
    Enter Dave and Serenity, she is now aboard Speck too, and she is
    setting sidesaddle, as there is just not a lot of room on a liz... Ah
    Dragon, and Speck is misbehaving as he does not like the added weight.
    
    A slight buck and our hero is joined by the Mighty Wizard, and
    Serenity.  The Wizards majickal wand is broken, and he says, "Now you
    have done it, you stupid Dragon... what will I do now?"
    
    Night falls...  THUD!
    
    
139.16ZEKE::GALESerenityFri Aug 13 1993 00:419
    Serenity pats Speck softly and says, "That's ok, Speck, you didn't mean
    to."
    
    And then with a magickal wave of her hand she repaired the broken wand
    as good as new and added a special deep purple amethyst to it
    increasing its power ten-fold. She kissed the wizard Dave lightly on
    his cheek and said, "There ya go!"
    
    The wizard was so impressed he ....

    And when he came to, the whole world was askew, no that was just
    because of the angle he was reclining.  
    
    Thanking Serenity for the added power and repairs, the Wizard waved the 
    wand and he, Ben, Serenity and Speck were instantly transported to 
    Kalispel, Montana... where...
    
    
139.19ZEKE::GALESerenityFri Aug 13 1993 02:237
    a herd of young deer ran across a nearby open plain. It seemed they
    were headed for the North Pole, looking for work, poor things. Little
    did they know they would be discriminated against because they were not
    reindeer, just plain old everyday white tails.
    
    Speck, espying the deer, licked his dragony lips and said in the most
    perfect english you have ever heard ....
139.20CSC32::D_ROYERChi beve birra campa cent'anni.Fri Aug 13 1993 23:5218
    Do you like your Venison well done or rare, as a tendril of smoke
    trickled from his nostrils?
    
    Ben was searching for a Tent in his backpack, now where did that
    come from?  
    
    Dave on the other hand... was looking for a downed tree to use and 
    finally found a spot for himself and Speck.  The Wizard waved is wand
    and produced a pavalion for Serenity, and they all set around the 
    fire that was ignited by Speck.  (handy to have a dragon friend ... you
    do not need matches)  They set around listening to Speck tell scary
    stories of the past when dragons ruled the world.  
    
    Then the went to their seperate locations to sleep..
    
    Much later a blood curdling scream pierced the air...
    
    
139.21ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSecurity is everyone's jobSat Aug 14 1993 05:0217
    Serenity ran out of the pavilion, her hair was an uncombed mess and she
    was quite perturbed at having her sleep disturbed.
    
    Speck arrived next, huffing and snorting little flames in his anxiety.
    
    "Go get 'em, Speck!" cried Serenity, "And tell them to stop that
    terrible noise, we goddess-types need our rest!"
    
    Speck bounded off into the woods, knocking small trees down easily and
    disturbing all manner of flora and fauna. Dave stumbled out finally,
    rubbing his eyes, his wizard hat slightly askew ...
    
    "What's up?" he inquired of Serenity.
    
    "Didn't you hear that blood curdling scream??!"
    
    "Of course I did, Serenity ... but don't worry, it's only ..... "

    "It's only the cry of the Flopelopelgop tritree bird.  This is their
    mating season, don't you know?"  
    
    With that, everyone was put to ease, but not to bed.  They layed awake
    for the rest of the night listening to the mating screams, and wishing
    it would stop.
    
    The next morning the beautiful Serenity decided to do something about
    it.  She cast a spell on the birds, and from then only the birds
    themselves could hear the screams.  Everyone cheered for Serenity, and
    decided that they should have a celebration in her honour.
    
    The planning for the party was left up to Lola because she is so good
    at planning parties.  She enlisted the help of Holly, Lori, and John
    for the important occasion.  They were each in charge of different
    items on the list....
    
139.23CSC32::D_ROYERChi beve birra campa cent'anni.Thu Aug 19 1993 19:2910
    While the planning for the party is going on the Wizard who had nothing
    of real importance pending, flew off with Speck to a remote mountain
    top.  (Pikes Peak as it is known to some.)   To meditate and grow
    wiser.  
    
    But, after three days of doing nothing the wizard, decided to return to 
    his friends, so a wave of the wand and they pop in on the scene....

    .... a big BIG black cauldron in the clearing, bubbling and boiling
    along nicely.
    
    The wizard arched one wizardy eyebrow and inspected the brew carefully.
    
    He looked all around, seeing no one and said to Speck, "Speck ....."
139.26BINKLY::FRANCESCHIwild childFri Aug 20 1993 03:061

    "NO! NO! NOOOOO!" screamed Spec the talking dragon, "It's NOT really
    THE END!! HONEST!"
    
    Spec sampled the stew and immediately spit it out! "Ye gads! The cook
    must have been ....

139.32ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSecurity is everyone's jobSat Aug 21 1993 05:226
     .... so sexy and beautiful too! ;)
    
    The wizard peered from under his magick hat at Spec and raised one
    eyebrow, "Spec,", he said in a very low voice, "You really should not
    tell the whole world about the charmly charms of Serenity. After all,
    she could be kidnapped or ravished or something by ..... "
139.33ELMAGO::BENBACAPut jam in my pockets, I'm toast!Sat Aug 21 1993 06:2913
     ...that man with the Zircon encrusted tweezers in his hand, that
    mental Toss Flycoon, that Movin to Montana Man, the one with the Stink
    foot and the Python Boots! Then what would you do Spec? 
    
    "Oh." muttered Spec. "I won't mention it to anyone, not even to Serenity 
    herself." We wouldn't want her to get a swelled head now would we." 
    
    The wizard grinned and rebutted. "No, thats not the reason. Those who are 
    fortunate enough to meet Serenity will discover for *themselves* just how 
    Charming she is. This quality will make itself apparent to those who 
    discover Serenity."

    Spec was speechless. The wizard got his point across and.....
139.34ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSecurity is everyone's jobSat Aug 21 1993 06:4312
    pulled out his magickal crystal ball. He gazed deep into its misty
    depths. The mists swirled and twirled ... and finally he found what he
    was looking for.
    
    Inside the crystal ball, the mighty wizard could clearly see a
    beautiful woman all dressed in white with a veil upon her head. She was
    surrounded by other women who all were dressed very prettily and were
    oooo'ing and ah'ing over the beautiful dress the woman in white was
    wearing.
    
    The wizard mused "Holly is the lovliest of all brides. I shall gift her
    with a special gift. I think I shall send her a ...... "

    Blessing so that she shall never be less happy than she is at this
    moment...
    
    Speck looks sideways and says; " I wish to present a gift to Holly too,
    I wish for her... ETERNAL beauty as she is at this moment, forever the
    blushing bride."
    
    The wizard mutters a spell and waves his wand, intending to appear at
    the festive ocassion, but a nearby warlock who has evil intent diverts
    the wizards spell, and Speck and the Wizard are diverted to...

    Beautiful downtown Burbank!
    
    (What an evil warlock!)
    
    Spec looks to his master with a question in his eyes and lo and behold!
    None other than the famous, world renown, old cotton-picker ...
139.38CSC32::D_ROYERChi beve birra campa cent'anni.Tue Aug 24 1993 19:1812
    Dan Rowan appears with the flying fickle finger of fate award to 
    present to the evil warlock.
    
    The wizard politely suggested what he should, but Speck, a bit peeved,
    tells the presenter to give it to the warlock, and suggested to place
    it where the sun does not shine.  
    
    Speck places the wizard on his back and starts the long journey to the 
    party scene... Speck is missing Serenity... he lets out a frightful
    moan that echos up to Hollywood....
    
    
139.39ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSecurity is everyone's jobWed Sep 15 1993 02:1810
    Lady Serenity dashes in to console and comfort her good friend Speck.
    
    "Speck, sweet love ... doth forgive this one, I beg of thee."
    
    Speck, (being no dummy) really plays it up for all he is worth, gaining
    much sympathy and many delightful little kisses from Serenity.
    
    Serenity (Also no dummy) see right through this ploy and with a wave of
    her staff conjures up Speck's favorite meal .... chocolate fudge ice
    cream with coconut cookies. Speck looks at this delight and ...
139.40STOWOA::OROURKEI'll sleep when I'm deadWed Sep 15 1993 03:127
    
    lets out a sigh of contentment.  Speck then says "If I'm a good boy
    and eat all of my dinner, can I have Death by Chocolate for dessert?"
    
    Just as Serenity is about to respond there is a knock at the door...
    
    
139.41ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSecurity is everyone's jobWed Sep 15 1993 06:458
    and as she peeks outside, her mouth parts in surprise, 
    
    "Why, m'lord! What art ye doing here at this hour? Pray do come in and
    sit with me, Sir Graeme ... shalt I ring for the valet to polish thy
    armour??"
    
    Sir Graeme bows deeply to Lady Serenity and steps inside, smiling he
    says ...
139.42KURMA::GMITCHELLSiol Nan GaidhealWed Sep 15 1993 06:5510
    "A thousand thanks for your hospitality Lady Serenity, just what a 
     knight needs after a hard day slaying dragons and englishmen"
    
    He continues
    
    "Sit with you, I'd love to. Could you help me out of my armour 
     first :)"
    
    LAdy Serenity helps the young knight out his armour, to her suprise
    she.....
139.43ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSecurity is everyone's jobWed Sep 15 1993 07:1014
    discovers that Sir Graeme has a hole in his left sock. 
    
    "M'lord, there art a hole in thy hose! I shall mend it for thee
    mineself!"
    
    Serenity slowly rolls down the offending hose and pulls out her silk
    and a darning egg. Sir Graeme ghets cozy in front of the fire while
    Speck sniffs around the kitchen looking for more chocolate.
    
    Serenity makes the nicest, tiniest little stitches and muses aloud ..
    "M'lord, what adventures hath ye been upon and what news can thou bring
    to me of the doings at the castle?"
    
    Sire Graeme turns to Serenity, beaming at her and replies,
139.44ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSerenityMon Feb 07 1994 00:0925
    Actually ... t'would seem Sir Graeme fell asleep ... all in a
    `knight's' work I suppose.
    
    Serenity quickly dusts off the story line and makes it presentable for
    reading once again. -> dust ... dust ... dust <-
    
    As the day dawns bright and clear, Serenity walks about the courtyard
    followed closely by Speck, her ever-faithful dragon ... ever since his
    wizard deserted him, he became attached to the fair maid and is
    extremely protective of her.
    
    Serenity walked carefully across the snow-covered flagstones ....
    wishing for the warmth of Spring to come and melt all the ice about the
    castle.
    
    "I long for flowers, music and wine, dear Speck! What e'er shalt I
    do??"
    
    Into the courtyard skipped Serenity's pride and Joy .... smiling and
    laughing and carrying an AURA of Spring all about her. Holly grined at
    her -sunny- mom and said, 
    
    "Heck ... you don't need the hot sun ... you got a dragon!"
    
    Holly turned to Speck and said most charmingly ....

    The Wizard, bedraggled, and almost starved from the long imprisonment
    at the hands of the Evil Chandr.  Casts a spell of summer upon the 
    blighted world about the castle and falls into a coma at Serenity's 
    feet.
    
    Speck, nuzzles the inert form of his friend but nothing happens....

Serenity skips into the garden delighting in all the sunshine. The sweet 
sound of birdsong fills the air when suddenly she sees a lump lying close 
to Speck. Speck whines softly and nudges the huddled mass once again.

Serenity dashes over and sees the wizard, "Oh My!"

A low moan escapes from the wizard, she whips out her all-purpose, genuine, 
original, one-of-a-kind, super-powerful magickal wand and points it at the 
Wiz as she incants in elvish.

The birds stop singing.

Speck backs waaaaaaay off.

The winds pick up and ....

    	The wizard finds himself in the raw.. Serenity, in all her
    excitement and concern had missed a word in her magickal spell....
    
    	There was Speck... rolling on his back... anguished at the state
    his master was in now... and laughing at the same time..at what
    happened ....
    
    	Then...

    bravely keeps a stiff upper lip while Serenity notes the exact size and
    location of every goose bump on the Wizard's body.
    
    "What art that, mine Wizard?? A what??"
    
    The Wizard turns to Serenity and surreptiously kicks Speck a good one
    as he replies,

    the wizard replies, " Why Serenity, have thou not ever felt the 
    world's largest goose bump before?"  :*)

    ...that's a magic crayola(tm) color wand that allows you to change the
    mood of the entire world with the wave of the wand in the proper hand. 
    But, if it is waved by someone that doesn't have the special powers
    needed to use it, then.......

    As the Wizard becomes aware of the surroundings, asks, What became of
    my clothing, that was one of my better robes?  Someone fine some wood
    and Speck dear friend, breath some fire to start them, I am cold, and 
    this snow is really becoming a bother...

139.56ZEKE::STARBRIGHTSerenityWed Feb 09 1994 01:434
    Serenity waves the Wizards magick wand and a full set of black and
    silver robes appear from thin air and drape themselves over his
    shivering body. Speck looks for wood and finding none decided to
    substiute ....

    Aw, the warmth of the fire feels real good, Speck, and thanks Serenity
    Dear, for the covering, I am afraid I do not look good in
    Blue...especially skin, said the Wizard.
    
    It has been forever since I have Eaten a bite... The Evil Chandr
    captured me and took all my possessions so I was left in a cold damp
    tower room.  Luckily one of the serving maids left the door unlocked

    Whiping his wand about in a 360 sweep he sends the foul mess back
    from whence it came, and then goes to be alone and be sick...
    
    
    The Wizard is not a Scot, see!

    The sound of 10 thousand cats being tortured with red hot pokers ... or
    something very similiar .... it seems to be coming from the Nook.
    
    A huge purple cloud floats into view and from it bursts forth a rainbow
    and sliding down the rainbow is none other than ...

    The Wizard reaches the reassembled wand waves it mightily and zaps the 
    stool into toothpicks, and the person sitting upon it is now having to
    enjoy the removal of the sharp bits of wood from the nether area.
    
    
    The Wizard no longer in pain, enters the Colorado Springs Airport to 
    go to Spokane.  Who knows what fate awaits our 'hero' there....
