Lots of Monkeys

Here’s a little story about a girl who we will call, “Mina.” Now, this story has nothing to do with real life, I can’t tell you that enough, so without further filler at this point, I’m going to start my story.

Mina enjoyed cigarettes, and one day, while she was having a cigarette break, a capricious, although very handsome imp decided to mix a bit of her food together. You see, this was at dinner, and his food had not arrived yet. He moved some grits there, and some corned hash around, mixing them together into what he called, “Grash.” Now, the imp never really told anyone that he called it, “Grash,” as this was all in his head.

So, I’m going through a lot of old documents in the backup folder, converting the things I find into Rich Text rather than the 1994 version of Word. A lot of it doesn’t have a lot of fancy formatting, and all I really want is the text. I did however, find the beginnings of my Gargoyles: The Animated Series / Highlander crossover fic.

While not as embarassing as other fics, I still marvel at the few paragraphs I did manage to get banged out. I had some thoughts about Demona and Xanatos being really interested in the Immortals, considering Xanatos’s interest in Immortality, and Demona being interested in some way to “cure” hers.

Probably never going to finish it, although I had a fairly obscure in joke about Demona’s computer “sounding like someone’s mother.” I thought it would be witty, you know, since Demona was played by Marina Sirtis, who played Deanna Troi on ST:TNG, and the computer there was played by Majel Barrett, who played Luxanna Troi on ST:TNG, who was Deanna’s Troi’s mother.

Right.

Needless to say, it was never loosed upon the world, and arguably, it’s a better place.

Never happened to me before. Surprisingly.

Cute commercial for some startup.
