Kodachrome's Catch

 There are many times I often equate my life to that of a sitcom.    This has never been truer since yesterday, my roommate told me about Kodachrome (aka Big Red, aka Russet Potato, aka Red Boy) actually caught a mouse.    Ironically, this mouse had already been caught by a trap.   My roommate had to place a thumb outside of Koda's mouth to release the trapped mouse.    Kody wouldn't let the prize go without a bit of a fight.   He seemed terribly triumphant, but unfortunately, it was a trophy that he hadn't earned.    I have since disposed of the evidence in what is left of the snow (we're in for a thaw), but I can still picture Little Potato carrying that mouse, making a lot of racket over it.    Silly Kodachrome.

Conky's Newest Feat

Synopsis: Conky needs help in finding a job to support his new family. Herman remembers when he and the others made their first newspaper together; Conky wrote business news, so it is suggested that he get a job as a stock trader. Chapter 1--The Moment Everything Changed Like any proud and expectant father, Conky was nervously pacing, wringing his manacles and nearly hyperventilating. ‘Sugar gears, I’m gonna be ok.’, SICO reassured him in her southern drawl.   That was until the contractions came and she wanted to rip his arm out and beat him with it for having impregnated her in the first place.   The birthing of the children happened in such fast succession it was almost difficult to keep up. The first child to enter the world, looking much like SICO only smaller, was a girl. Her cry was feminine but soft.    ‘Let’s name her Amica…’, Conky suggested.   Right after her, Dextro came into the world, loud, wailing and needing extra cu...

Wedding at the Playhouse

Synopsis: Continuing from "Pajama Party at the House of Mouse", Herman Norman "Pee-Wee Herman" Ruebens and his beloved, Yvonne Chambers, are finally getting married. “ L is for the way you look at me, O is for the only one I see, V is very, very, extraordinary. You’re the one that I adore, no one could ever want you more.’--Lyrics from L-O-V-E as sung by the often imitated but never duplicated Nat King Cole “A life without love isn’t worth living. What’s life without love ? It’s a tree that bears no fruit. It’s sleeping without dreaming. At times, it’s the inability to sleep. It’s living one day after another waiting for the sun to shine into a room that’s completely painted black, where you know the key is but have no desire top open the door and go out.”--Karla, Hippie, Paulo Cohelo Chapter 1—The Most Romantic Wedding of All It was Yvonne Chambers, soon to be Ruebens, favorite day of the year. Ever since she had ...

The Slo Mo, Voiceless Leader

  Synopsis: An AU/reboot of Sonic Underground, the third and final Sonic cartoon produced by DiC Entertainment. The "good" Robotnik from the episode "Six is a Crowd" meets the evil one. In a backstory, the three hedgehogs appear to come across the Oracle of Delphius (actually an evil clone created by the evil Robotnik) who forces Sonic to make a deal - his voice and speed in exchange for being with Sonic's beloved Amy Rose, whom Robotnik deceives Sonic into thinking he cannot marry, as he is a royal and she is a commoner. It is up to the good Robotnik, as well as the hedgehogs' (formerly evil counterparts) to help save Sonic. The royal firstborn blue hedgehog also figures out King Jules' and Queen Aleena's location at long last!   Dedicated to the true voice of Sonic, Jaleel White.
