In reply to: Kande's Sis 's message, "Happy Birthday to me and Rabid" on 06:34:57 03/08/06 Wed

Rabid and KS are still sitting at the table exchanging tales of espianage - so much has happened since their last visit. Bubba - who has inhaled way to much helium - is floating peacefully over the two. A thin twine secured from the table is tied tightly around his ankle.

"...then I said, &%$t or get off the pot if you want me to take care of those guys - and I don't really care WHAT you want everyone to think he did - I need REAL arsonal and 20M cash, in untraceable 50's and 100s....and he couldn't deliver....man oh man...so I had to let the guy go...." KS shrugs her shoulders, still disbelieving.

"well well well, looks like you win the bet KS, they DID come back" Rabid says with more than a hint of sarcasm in her voice as the crowd enters the room. Her tone then changes to excitement as she see's the large pile of gifts being rolled in. "ooohhh are those for ME?"

Both KS and Rabid dive into the piles, instictively knowing which ones are for whom. KS finds the use of her claw-foot handy at sliding open the end of the gifts, she takes a quick cursery examination of the box before she tosses them towards JD, who is loading them up in her illigally parked SUV.

The music starts.....people begin to chatter and drink rootbeer and iced tea. The Mayor, looking sharp wearing a tradition japanese dress - made up in a very untraditional burgandy satin, begins to clink her glass to get everyones attention.

Taking to the stage the mayor smiles and picks up the mic..."Is this on?" she says, a loud squeel is heard through out the klub.

"For heavens sake Mayor, there are less than 20 of us here, you really don't need the mic" a tired CW calls out, then noticing the look the esteemed mayor shot back she rethinks her statement, "um...I mean, you have such a natural ability to have people quiet and listen to you..." she says nervously.

"Why thank you CW, what a kind thing to say" KM switches the mic off.

"People of Shipperville, we are gathered here today to celebrate an important date! Two of our most noteable townsfolk are ONE MORE YEAR CLOSER TO RETIREMENT..."

"YYYESSSSS, THANK YOU IG, How did you know I wanted this book" KS holds up a thick volume titled, "Conspiracy Theories From Season Five: and how to apply them effectively against evil inlaws"

"Your welcome and you know I read your list, you sent it out months ago and then sent JD out to quiz us" IG rolls her eyes, "Furthermore, I can't believe you would want that book, it says NOTHING about ship.....its not a book with out ship"

The words were lost on KS as she continues on to the next gift. The Mayor walks off the stage, obvious that no one is listening - (something she has grown used to lately, living in a house with two boys). She refills her glass of iced tea and joins the small crowd circled around the quickly depleating piles of gifts.

Rabid giggles with delight as she finds a electic cow prod that is disquised as a wooden pointer, "lets bring on those little poops who turn down page corners as a marker...I am ready" she yells excitidly.

KS pulls up a odd shaped box and reads the card, "I listened to what you said this time, really I did. Happy Birthday Sister, from Kande" KS eyes her nervous sister who is spilling root beer from behind the bar. Using her claw foot she expertly slices off the wrapping paper.

"what is it....what is it...." the crowd gathers closer.

"A RONKO TAMPON WARMER" KS first looks confused, then she looks even MORE confused. "when did I ever tell you I wanted a tampon warmer???" she yells at her sister.

"last week, you were sitting here telling me what you wanted for a gift, you said exactly "I need a weapon of pad relaxing"

"You need to get your hearing checked...what I said was "I need a weapon on mass destruction", what the hell am I going to do with this thing"

"oh look, it also makes yogurt" CW reads the box, "mmm, I could go for some yogurt right now" A few people follow CW into the kitchen for a yogurt party. The music gets louder and some people begin to dance. KS who couldn't dance well with two human feet begins to lurch around the floor. Her claw-foot snagging the women hose as she twirls around. She dances closer to the mayor, and when she is speaking distance from her KS stops danceing and smiles.

"Well?" is all she says. The Mayor smiles back at her and pulls a small box out from under her red hat. KS grabs it greedily and rips open the package, Inside she finds a key and a paper. On the paper was a day and a time, and the numarical statement of 'The Twenty - Third Hour'.

"Whats does it mean" KS asks, hating when the mayor makes her figure it out.

"I got it for you from ebay, thats the key to the hotel room where Jack will be waiting, you get hour 23 of the 24.

"YESSS....THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU OH WISE AND WONDERFUL MAYOR!"

KS lurches back out onto the dance floor, taking Bubba string with her she spins him around fast. Bubba screams with delight, we think. It is hard to tell with aliens.

Happy Happy Birthday KS. And since you birthday is on a Friday, it is SV law that you get to reap the privildges of your BD all weekend. You can tell that to your hubby and kids!
