Arrr! Ye'll never catch me! Avast!

And, for the record, it was last weeks edition and it was a little Goomba, not a Koopa trooper.

Ya, that's what it was...a Goomba. I'm not caught up on my Mario terms...at least they're from Mario right?

Yup. That they be.

I had an odd dream just a few minuets ago. I went to sleep to pass the time and woke up thinking, "Eh?"

It began with me going onto the Barrow Downs only to find that I was always being re-directed to some tourist website about Antarctica. I recall being very suspicious because there were lots of Penguins on this website. My little brother, Jonathan (He was on here under the name Gelmir for a while) is into penguins big time, so I asked him what was going on.

It turned out, some how, that Thinlómien had kidnapped him and taken him to Antarctica. Naturally, I decided to go and find out why. On the way I, for reasons yet to be fathomed, ended up in Wales. Ka and Rune were there trying to break into a pirate treasure chest. Rune had some very complicated machine that looked like a modified digger. Ka was trying to throw the chest off a cliff.

"What is going on?" I asked, but they just told me to help them open it. So I opened it, for it was not locked. Both Rune and Ka then threw me off the cliff for 'trying to be clever'. Then I woke up.

Any explanations? Answers on a postcard.

Maybe because I wanted him to join The Penguin Militant Front...

I had one the other night as well, but I can't remember it. Here's last night's:

I, Fea, Mac, Rune, Lommy, and another BDer male (was it Nogrod?) were sitting on the floor somewhere in a mall and eating candy. I think Mac was the leader of our pack. Also, we seemed to have been waiting for someone.

Yup. That's it.

Anything special, Doctor Dream?

I seem to pop up in a lot of dreams lately. . . sweet!

On Hookbill's I would like to say that I am not the least bit suprised about our action, throwing you off a cliff seems like a sound thing to do.

and Lhuna, I would never let Mac be the leader of the pack. . .I would probably crumble before the feet of Fea, but she is an exeption.

The mall's the Downs and the candy is all the fun you have here. You're waiting for another Downser. Pack? Waiting for a werewolf game?

Let's see if I can remember how this went...

I was apparently this long-hoped for heroine...I went to Gurthang the armorer/forger for fostoring until my time came. Gurthang was rather middle-aged and very overweight...he may have had some physical problems due to this. (Sorry, Gurth.)

While I was learning the ancient art of making chain mail out of wire rings, my time came, and I was to go out to face the bad guy, who appeared to be Nogrod.

I was assisted by my faithful Hookbill, and I think EomerotR and Lommy. We charged onto the field yelling bloody murder, and I woke up.

I don't know how it ended. I probably won.
