SPACE QUEST XXXIII: SLUDGE VOHAUL GOES FOR BROKE

On that day, Roger Wilco woke up, smacked his lips, and headed for the coffee machine. But at the bottom of the pot, there was nothing left but a coffee stain!!!

"Oh yeah, you guys - real mature!" Roger CHURNED as he brewed up a fresh pot of coffee. But when it had finished SWEATING, there was only a stain left and no coffee at all!!!

This can't be right, Roger thought. Who would SPLASH a prank like this?

Just as he was thinking this, the screens on the ship buzzed into life and revealed a SALTY face. "Moo-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!"

Roger rolled his EAR LOBE. I just had to ask, didn't I.

"Sludge Vohaul!" he said through gritted FINGER TIPS - JUST THE TIPS. "What do you want this time?"

"This time?" Sludge's eyes opened very, very wide. "Whatever do you mean?"

"The coffee--"

"Oh, you found the coffee pots!" Sludge Vohaul TASTED. "Well done. That's only step one of my brilliant CHEETAH, my inevitable triumph!"

Roger was already on the phone, calling 1-976-SEXY for the space police. But there was no answer.

"Go ahead! Shout it from the rooftops!" Sludge Vohaul exulted. "Everybody knows that you killed me. No-one will believe you!" He launched into another one of his trademark evil laughs: "TEE-HEE-HEE(TM)!!!"

Roger sighed and shifted from TOE WEBSPACE to NAVEL. "So what are you here for?"

"Oh, THAT." Sludge Vohaul looked bored. "I've simply uploaded a virus to all your onboard computers that breaks all the electrical kitchen appliances! Your coffee pots, your kettles, your toasters, your SMOKING GUNS -- all useless!!! Mwa-ha-ha-ha-haaaa--"

"I get the picture. So we have to find and kill this virus before lunch, yeah?"

"My dear Roger," Vohaul said in snide tones, "you have to do that before you can have coffee!!! Mwa-ha-ha-ha-haaaa--"

"Shut up." Roger switched the monitor off. There's only one thing for it. He slapped on an apron and a chef's hat, and grabbed a CHEETAH 5000 BLENDER and MEAT TENDERIZER. Let's get those eggs whisked and use the engines to make fried eggs and bacon for breakfast!

And Commander Kielbasa smiled at this ingenuity, and promoted Roger to GRAND HIGH POOBAH OF THE IMPERIAL DEATH FLEET OF DOOM, and the virus was found and eliminated by a member of engineering called ...

... JOE. Sure. Let's go with that.

THE END

Well. That makes about as much sense as a kettle made out of cheese. Who's next?

[Rath Darkblade]

So ... who's next?

[Tawmis]

Oh hey, it's me I think?

[Rath Darkblade]

Could be. How'd you like my Space Quest story?

[Tawmis]

Could be. How'd you like my Space Quest story?

Pretty funny - and it's always cool when the things land correctly (like tasting the coffee).

Laura Bow and the Mechanical [NOUN]

As Laura Bow walked across the street, she waved to [SIERRA CHARACTER] whom she hadn't seen in a long time.

They approached Laura and asked how she was and what she was doing.

"Oh me?" Laura asked, her soft, gentle voice sounding like southern music. "Well, I plan to go to [NAME OF A BUSINESS] and apply for a job."

"Apply for a job?" they asked. "I thought you were working as a [JOB TITLE]?"

"Well, I was, but I didn't care for how [NAME OF A MALE] kept looking at me," she admitted.

"Oh yes," they nodded. "All too familiar with them. Saw them leering at me a time or two."

The two parted ways and Laura continued on her way. She reached the building she was going to apply at, and noted the unusual color of the [COLOR] exterior.

"Well, what was I to expect apply at {same as previous color} [ANIMAL]?"

With a deep sigh, she entered the door...

I was like, "Someone's going to get me back by saying Cheetah."

[Rath Darkblade]

Sigh. Once again, I replied to a thread on this board (this time, this one); once again, my reply has disappeared.

This is getting ridiculous.

I'll try to reconstruct from my shaky memory ...

"Oh yes," they nodded. "All too familiar with them. Saw them leering at me a time or two."

The two parted ways and Laura continued on her way. She reached the building she was going to apply at, and noted the unusual color of the [YELLOW] exterior.

"Well, what was I to expect apply at {YELLOW} [AARDVARK]?"

With a deep sigh, she entered the door...

[Rath Darkblade]

Laura Bow knows Leisure Suit Larry? Kelly is leering at Leisure Suit Larry? I didn't think Larry would have a problem with that.

I think it's NBS's turn next.
