41 I hope everyone enjoyed my sex with a car story. I of course did alot of
42 research into the peice so it would sound right and make sence. Sometimes
43 research can be the most fasinating thing. I learned lots about my own
44 capabilities and the capabilities of my various partners. I guess you could
45 say that cars are as different the people who drive them! Even cars of the
46 same make have little differences. Discovering those differences for the forst
47 time with a car can be really enjoyable. Foreiners I must say are the best.
48 I justed loved the two B.M.W. cars I had. They could keep on going for it and
49 going for it. I got tired out quick. The Crysler Cordoba was like a spanish
50 mad man, or women I guess I would say. X^n person above, I am glad you laffed
51 as hard as I did. Just thinking about some of those cars brings back memories.
52 I guess I will do some more study and come back with another story soon.

62      The Inn is a lively little place lately...bagpipes in one corner, what
63 seems to be a magicians' squabble in another (I wonder who will fry whom?),
64 and a lively dispute near the fireplace about the definition of good poetry.
65 I think I'll find a corner where they're telling stories...
66      There's one - a love affair with a car, told in exacting detail? I'm
67 not sure he's not serious...
68      Is there anybody out there that wants to buy a penniless student a drink
69 and help her find someone to listen to??

101   Zancresta say the Zarking Person and the others who were staring at the
102 two arguing Wizards." "I suggest, human, that we take this squbble to aa 
103 different place.....perhaps the outskirtsof Malderpot? Hmmmm??" The evil 
104 wizard smiled, revealing r ows of sharp teeth that glinted white in the 
105 firelight. People were beginning to get nervous as the Wizard/ferret b
106 sent out a huge backlash of evil sensations to all the empaths, te
107 bo
108 telepaths, and others who can sense such things. A small magician in the 
109 chair next to him fell forward because ofthe permeating evil sense. He 
110 waited for a reply from the Apprentice, who xad only stared on at his 
111 other remarks.
112 The ferret glowed with evil ppoower. He laughed menacingly as the other 
113 wizard in his company gazed fearingly at him. "The Wizard of Malderpot 
114 does not take to a cha:llenge lightly! You have challenged my power by 
115 being here! I shall see you enslaved or killed." then the Ferret began to call upon his own evil dens to carry the two to
116 Malderpot. In a send that it took to get there, they had reached it. the outskirts of the city, that is. "My home!" said
117 the ferret, who laughed once again. The apprentice was shocked by the vement, and stood motionless as the evil wixzard 
118 raised his hands. A huge fireball appeared and he hurled it at the Apprentice!

123     (^): The most important element for arguing is misunderstanding. The second
124 is conflicting vewpoints. I said, "...within those guidelines (Webster's) it is
125 all in the mind of the reader." I did not say mean to imply that ordinary prose
126 that did not describe "through meaning, sound, and rhythm" was poety. (Oops, 
127 above, just cross out either the "say" or "mean to imply", whichever you 
128 prefer. And, two lines up, spell poetry right. Stupid fingers). I was not the
129 person that gave the other Webster's definition, but I will give one.
130     Prose: 1a: the ordinary language of men in speaking or writing.  b: a 
131 literary medium distinguished from poetry esp. by its greater irregularity
132 and variety of rhythm and its closer correspondence to the patterns of
133 everyday speech.  2: a prosaic style, quality, character, or condition: 
134 ORDINARINESS, MATTER-OF-FACTNESS
135     Prose poem: a work in prose that has some qualities of a poem (as rhythm,
136 patterned structure, or imaginative heightening)

   Flinging open the door and stepping inside from out of the vicious insults 
162 
and biting ripostes of the surprising summer storm that threatened the  famed 
163 
Inn and all Inn-habitants strode a young man,  well wrapped against the storm 
164 
and night, and a large, chocolate colored, dog.  
165 
   To the casual  observer,  the  pair  looked  as  innocuous  as  any  other 
166 
wayfarers  in  a  storm,  though  any  educated lodger of the small pub would 
167 
recognize this drifter as one of an  elite  few,  educated  in  the  ways  of 
168 
weaponry,  arcane  arts,  and  bad  joke telling:  a Fencer.  Hushed whispers 
169 
travelled quickly through some circles of  friends,  a  Fencer  had  come  to 
170 
grace,  or  as  some critics would argue,  to curse,  the Inn with stories of 
171 
woundrous places and mystical things.  
172 
   The newcomer crossed the floor and chose a table far back in  one  corner, 
173 
where  the  lights  from  the candles and lanterns flickered and danced,  and 
174 
positioned himself facing towards the door,  with the dog  at  his  feet.  He 
175 
ordered  an  ale  for himself and a plate of scraps was gathered for the dog, 
176 
and after comforting himself with several more mugs of ale,  whispered to the 
177 
dog,  "Be quiet now, Elan.  Tomorrow we will see the start of new beginnings, 
178 
I am sure of it..." and dozed off to the sweet land of bliss.

186 The Doctor led Grann away, through one of the myriad of corridors in the
187 TARDIS.  I finished the last of my concoction, then wandered to the main 
188 computing facility.
189 It was interesting to note that although the Doctor and I were adept at
190 entirely different skills (his being technology, of course, and mine being
191 magic), there were areas of bleed-over that had occurred after long aquaintance
192 with each other.  The Doctor, for example, took to Illusionary magic like a
193 shot, after I introduced him to it.  It soon became apparent that his abilities
194 exceeded mine in that area.  It wasn't too long, however, before we found that
195 I had a knack with computers: programming, repairing, and so forth.  We each
196 accepted the greater skills of the other.  Our friendship was too great not
197 to.
198 After finding the room, I set to work.  Perhaps a half-hour had passed before
199 I finished, but the program I had created would pinpoint the location that
200 the box was drawing the TARDIS towards.
201 I could hear a small explosion distantly, echoing through the corridors from
202 the Danger Room.  It seemed almost ludicrous that the Doctor had gotten the
203 idea for the Room from an Earth comic-book, but it was true.  I shook my head,
204 wondering at the idea.  I pressed the 'commence execution' key before the
205 terminal I was using.
206 <Temporal CO: 1985 A.D. ET, 07/15 @ 16:00>
207 <Working....>
208 <Spatial CO: Earth, North American Continent, United States, California,
209 Los Angeles>
210 <Working....>
211 <ParaTemporal CO: Relative +4 West of current position>
212 <Working....>
213 <End Run>
214 I studied the screen, absorbing what it told me.  So it WAS Earth, after all,
215 and yes, 1985.  But the ParaTemporal coordinate left me confused.  I'd only
216 included that because it was one of the four ways a being could travel.  I'd
217 not actually expected it to be used.
218 One of four ways, I thought.  Spatial, Temporal, Dimensional, ParaTemporal.
219 I obtained a printout from the terminal, and hurriedly ripped it off and
220 moved toward the Danger Room.  I briefly wondered how Grann had been doing,
221 and how the Doctor would take the news.

261         The apprentice raised his walking stick to ward off the attack. 
262 A bit clumsy, mayhap, but the ball veered off. Much to the ferocious 
263 ferret's suprise, the apprentice's next action was to cast a spell on 
264 himself!
265         A strange feeling came over the ferret and he he passed out just as
266 he realized what the human had done.
267         "I trust that will teach you better manners sirrah..." said the
268 apprentice. "I hope you will enjoy the hangover from my drinks as much
269 as you now enjoy the drinks!"
270         As he began the spell to return home, he reflected on the varied
271 uses of such simple spells as transference. Say transferring the alcohol (
272 (and other toxic substances) from one body to another....

280 	Swiftly goes the sword-play
281 	singing in the mountains.
282 	Clash of steel is calling,
283 	Clanging up to heaven: --
284 	arrows flying angry;
285 	axes lifting skyward,
286 	banging down on byrnies,
287 	breaking shields and helmets.
288 
289 	Swiftly goes the swordplay:
290 	Spears on hosts are raining;
291 	men run forth in madness,
292 	mowing ranks of foemen;
293 	battle tumult bellows;
294 	blod is red on axeheads;
295 	greedily the gray wolf
296 	gorges with the raven.

326 Senses blurred,a a shape of something resembling a tree, but was u
327 upside-down. "Aurgh." said the ferret lyiing in the forest of the 
328 outskirts of Malderpot.  The hangover and such taking it's toll on 
329 the wizardly visage of the young(?) Zancresta.  He pulled himself up
330 and was met by a hammer on his head that brought him to his knees a
331  
332 and brought him down onto the dusty dirt road.  He propped himselff 
333 up on one of his furry arms, then the other, steady now. He then s
334 stood up on his knees and tried to fight the incredible pounding 
335 like waves against the shoreline. Steadily he crawled until he found
336  a rock of reasonable size to help him stand. "T-yurglugh" he moaned 
337 to himself. He stood and tried to get his bearings. He was on a d
338 dirt road, check. He was in a forest, check. Fine. The trouble was 
339 that that nearly described the entire planet he lived on.  And at t
340 the precise moment he couldn't even remember who he was, let alone 
341 where. 
342     Just then an urgent call from his stomach reached his un-sober 
343 mind and he turned away, making good use (so to speak) of a small 
344 alcove of bushes.  Now to the subject at hand...who was he?  Hmmmm..
345 "Urrr!" he thought, swaying as the full effects of the drinks he  
346 had had back at the Inn...wait...The Inn was where he should be! BD
347 Despite the fact that he didn't remember getting drunk at the Inn, 
348 Zancresta decided that that was as good a place as any to sort out 
349 who and what he was.  He remembered the teleport spell, thinking to 
350 the Inn.  H landed several planets from hismark and caused cvery
351 considerable havok txere before finally getting it right and going 
352 into the Inn.  He saw the Apprentice, sitting at a table looking v
353 very smug and giggling just a tad.
354   Suddenly all his memories flooded back to him, the drink'S effects
355 subsiding.  "oOk! Ok!" said Zancresta, who now knew who and where he
356 was and why. "You win!  I know when I've been nested, now...how a
357 about getting together for a little demon summoning. I can summon c
358 any class demon...well?" Zancresta smiled and once again revealed h
359 his inherant sharp teeth.

463   As the piper was playing, he noticed the apprentice speaking with a large,
464 sharp-faced animal.  With a strange feeling of bemusemnt, the piper looked
465 about the large common room of the inn and noticed the large number of
466 non-humans scattered through the crowd, eating, drinking, holding forth on
467 various topics.  
468   The piper gave a mental shrug.  In the mutable universe in which he held
469 a precarious existence, change was the only constant.
470 
471   His set of songs was nearly at the end when a strange flicker from the
472 apprentice's table caught his eye.  The sharp-faced animal -- it seemed almost
473 to be a weasel, martin, or ferret the piper mused -- had seemed to take offense
474 at the apprentice.  The piper swung into the last measure of the tune as the
475 two disappeared in a somewhat malodorous cloud of smoke.  By the end of his
476 tune the apprentice had returned looking much more sober, and slightly
477 smug about something.
478   The piper walked past his table, stopping for a moment to say,  "I think
479 I should buy you a drink before your new friend returns.  You're looking
480 much to sober to stay long."
481   Walking up to the age-scarred bar, the piper purchased three drinks and
482 turned back to the apprentice's table.  His erstwhile companion had returned,
483 somewhat chastened, weaving slightly on his feet, but still game -- matching
484 wits with the apprentice again!  Clumsily holding three mugs of ale in one
485 hand and balancing his pipes with the other, the piper made his way back to
486 the table in time to hear the sharp-faced visitor referring to summoning
487 demons.
488   Setting a mug down before the apprentice, the piper turned to the
489 newcomer, set a mug down before him, and spoke.
490   "Please seat yourself and have a drink.  And pray," the piper continued,
491 "please don't summon demons or other diabolical manefestations here at the
492 inn.  They pollute the environment too mutch and could provoke massive
493 retaliation from other inhabitants of Innisfall."

496  "Oh.  I apoligize, Piper.  Please forgive me.  It wasn't meant as an attack 
497 on the Apprentice.  I can see from *hic* past experience that such an attack 
498 would be futile." said the Ferret, his eyes seemiinly swaying about the room
499 with him, though not as much as they were when he first entered the Inn.  Butt
500 due to his ferret metabolism the intoxicating substance was soon stopped 
501 and gone.  "I won't summon any demons here.  It was mearly something I do in 
502 my spare time."  He smiled at the Piper. "But I want to compliment you, sir.  
503 You play your pipes with a masterful skill!!!" said the ferret, who was no
504 quite sober.

509 And Brinaman Scott is a (gag) pascal programmer.  That explains his sick entries.
510 And Brinaman Scott is the same as Brian Scott. This pityful atempt at chang
511 ing identities does not fool the smart one's here. And now let me get this
512 strait,,, the otter is the same as the minstrel is the same as the ferret is
513 the same as mudge. This one person is responsible for turning the tabels of
514 the inn over and causing so much comotion. One person with so much power as
515 to completely wreck the steadfast walls on the backwater inn. One person who
516 has grabed the sensibility of all the patrons and turned it inside out.
517 One perosn who is entering everyother entry on here. One person!!!!!!!!!!!!!
518 This tells at least me something about the thin grasp we have here, if one
519 person is able to make so many changes with what goes on. I am more than a
520 little scared........................................................................

600           I stood in the grayness, a lone figure painted as a tortured form
601 against the watercolor mat.  The bird, who had long since flown away, had
602 given me a gift, and I cherished the gift.  It was difficult to see in the
603 mist, it was difficult to look into myself seeing strength.  The strength
604 which gave me muscles to stand on after being battered down was only a
605 shadow of an image within me, a translucent thought that faded into dimness.
606 It remained a single pillar in my mind as pain crashed against my skull
607 seeming to shatter all thoughts.  
608           Here I stand, wavering and uncertain.  My heart pounds with
609 frusteration, I look apon the world with glistening eyes.  New problems
610 stain my mind, leaving my body wracked with swallowed sobs of anger and
611 pain.  The world, like a glass structure or the fragile bonework of my skull,
612 seems to crash down on me as the unwrit difficulties come forth.  Yet, I stand
613 with tears streaming down my cheeks, I stand and will not fall.  Cautiously,
614 I lift my head to face the world and lift one foot to take a step.
