Title: If Oinkle Crufts Began Stupidly Farting, Does Not Another? Authors: Callum, Warren, David, Bryan Date: Fri Aug 4 11:52:18 1995 'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, except for the fifteen billion or so bacteria that were eating away at Patrick's decaying body. The biggest problem was going to be getting enough bricks to block up the chimney to stop Santa. Anja, a superb bricklayer, went to work and used most of her spare kneebraces and massage oil to form a thick creamy paste which was smeared onto passers-by, causing them to break out into extremely poor versions of several Rogers and Hammerstein songs. Could it be that the only way the torture would end would be to turn off the sewing machine? I don't think so; after all, this wouldn't cause enough deaths. As the mailman passed with a sendmail.cf file stuck to his head, Anja relaxed relaxingly. Her pulsating pulse pounded persistently powerfully plus potently. Wiping the spittle from his mouth, the author paused to scratch his left-over crystal goblet with a lightsabre, a distant relative of the samurai sword. He was reminded of the story's sadly-lacking title, and foreswore to swear forthwith. Shivering in his timbers, Long John Crinklebottom, cracked off at the waist. The deafening sound of a chainsaw was heard resounding in the vacuum. Pretty hard without any atmosphere. The place was a dive; it hadn't been painted in twenty years, and many of the customers had passed on and were now used to prop up the walls. After ordering another waffle, L.J saw to it that nobody came near that place again by issuing the foulest stench his curry-soaked body could produce. Linearly interpolating the surrounding quadrangle, he realised that he was trapped. If only he had listened to his fridge that morning; it hadn't exploded just to keep him happy. He searched the floor and came up with a pair of tweezers. ``Hmm, will this free me to fulfill my true career path as a 250 pound hairy baboon.'' No-one was sure exactly why this was so, but he died with a smile on his face as the packs of rabid arts students on minibikes mowed him down. The smell of marijuana hung out to dry made Anja's nose wrinkle, but fortunately she had an iron nearby. She found the continual trips down to the hair salon trying, but never more so than in spring when the mud from the thawing snow was knee deep. A quick shopping trip could turn into a mud-bath, and make you ignore the birds that were pecking several old ladies to death. Absurdly, this was enough time to run back to the car and get the machetti which Prince Charles held aloft (not unlike another certain implement of similar utilage) and cried, ``Is this a salami I see before me, its handle UGH!...'' as he slipped over in the mud and fell into the ditch. The chauffer tried in vain to make the car into a smaller hampster, however the large angry budgy was having none of this, and angrily attacked the chauffer's hat before completely removing the still-dead conjunctives from this sentence. They were later found in Sir Mervyn Moncrieff's final work, ``My Conjunctives Collection'' which caused much controversy in many countries and was subsequently banned. Meanwhile, the chauffeur grabbed that heavy and controversial tome and hit Patrick over the head with it. It was a short walk back to the old shepherd's hut where there would be old shepherds pie for tea, cooked in an old shepherd's tractor tyre and a leaky but watertight hat made entirely of squid. Later that afternoon, the marauding goat herders stumbled across the Oinkle. Few survived to relate the tragic tale of its vicious attack, and many were so terrorised by the setting sun they could never speak again leaving only the sheep to relate the story, but no one was interested anyway. A loud fart rudely broke the eggs neatly into the frypan and threw away the shells before emptying the seawge cart over the donkey. Over the hill, hidden inside the forest, was a tree. Large hairy things were also hidden within the forest. In addition to these, several other non-descript, rather boring creatures were hidden and eaten by the now famished trees. Unfortunately for the trees, the large hairy things gave them fir balls and they regurgitated all over Ozalp much to his regret at not knocking them all over with a bulldozer beforehand. Suddenly, and with much laughter, Tarzan swung into the clearing. `Yo mama!' he yelled as he slammed into a tree. His insides burst open, spilling fragments of perl script onto the forest floor below. Small children gathered up the pieces and then didn't. Later, when Tarzan became the ruthless dictator of the treetops, the children went hungry, and the population cried out for a hero and so it was that Dennis, a shy, mild mannered accountant and part-time hedgehog, was seized upon by the crowds and given the dangerous mission of eating the entire universe. This he set about in an organised fashion, starting at the outermost realms and spiralling in towards Earth (after all, he figured he'd need a home base to work from). He was never seen again. :-) And so it was that Dennis could return to a hero's welcome, preening his spines as he was driven down the main street in an open limo with thousands of onlookers cheering insanely and throwing ticker-tape at high velocities. After he finally got out of the hospital, Dennis decided never to be a hero again; the parade injuries were too great. He set up the rocket launcher and aimed it carefully at the massive purple owl and lit the fuse. After the disintegration of the opposite wall had concluded, it was decided to give Patrick a funeral with full military honours at the busy downtown cemetary just opposite the Pizza Hut (TM) during rush hour. The purple owl began stupidly farting, causing a sudden onslaught of babies with chronic colic to attempt to suck everyone and thing in their path. The 24 gun salute ripped through the rather weak cloth of the underpants and exploded after mixing with the air and drifting into contact with the by now blazing oil well. Confused and disoriented, Ozalp helped drag many of the sick and injured from the fireball so that Anja could render first aid. She was dismayed at the tragedy, and also at the lack of decent television programmes these days. In fact, she was considering turning in her remote control. Of course, there was always sex, sex and more sex on `Melrose Place', but she didn't like watching that sort of program. No, she preferred documentaries by David Attenborough and the odd test pattern. As the complex pattern of lines and circles in garish colours stayed perfectly still to the accompaniment of an unpleasant monotonous beep, an educated English voice began to explain the mating habits of the inhabitants which consisted of some very strange actions such as eating each others hats and then farting in the general direction of the sun. This was all a bit silly so the educated voice resigned and went to work for Sale of the Century. Later that century, a build-up of methane on the surface of the sun caused it to go supernova, destroying the nearby hamlet of Westborough. Luckily, someone managed to activate the spelling checker and restore Westborough to its correct spelling, with the `t'. Nervously, Melinda crept around the old shepherd's cottage hidden deep in the forest. Smoke curled lazily from the chimney, but fell asleep on the roof. The shephead arrived back from a hard day's shepherding to find Melinda going through his cupboards. ``Ere, wot you doin?'' Melinda turned and in her best Mid-day Soapy voice explained that she was looking to see where all the crying stupid women were, as there hadn't been one in the story for at least 5 minutes. The shephead realised there was a typo in the text and went off to try and find some head to herd, found only tails, lost the two-up game and fell over in the gutter. Eventually the television would stop showing reruns of F-troop, but until that fateful day, paleface and redskins both turn chicken. The gutter was sick off holding back the edges of the road and decided to go inside and watch the motor racing. The road had a natural interest in the fast moving cars and was cheering for the crash barriers which had to catch one sooner or later. Sure enough, Patrick (driving a nuclear-powered fridge and omnibus), collided with the chicken crossing the road, and ended up in the trap. The mangled wreckage caught fire, and burned merrily and brightly for several minutes. Hordes of Greenpeace Warriors surrounded the tiny island with fire-extinguishers at the ready incase the rabid arts students (majoring in French) decided to blow themselves up. They did. The fire extinguishers were thrown at the arts students in a bid to help them end their lives faster. They did. The corpses were left to rot in the tropical sun. They did. Later that year, as Ozalp went to market with five little piggies, those remaining students decided to unzip the forestry commision. They did. And once again, all was quiet in the little hamlet of Pickleborough, home of all things pickled. Stuart sipped his shiraz, getting slowly pickled, having just purchased a new home in the area. His pointy hat was sitting in the corner glowing brightly and as a coal sack painted black and hiding in a tractor tyre on a dark night. Three bling mice made their way slowly around the hedge in search of the meaning of bling. It wasn't in the dictionaries they could find, and there were not many people alive in the world who knew it was an ancient Pict word for `lurid and senetic'. The mice never did work it out. After many years, the crufty oinkles tied to their legs stopped farting, and they never did it again.
