Crow: No, just a fungus.

Mike: On the next Jenny Jones!

Tom: Yeah, they're the most amazing images I've ever seen
of alien telescopic Orbs being used to observe
humanity in its native setting. They're also the
*only* images I've ever seen of alien telescopic
Orbs being used to observe humanity in its
native setting.

> Almost like a field trip,

Mike [little-kid voice]: Mom, can you sign this permission
slip for my field trip to Earth?

Crow: So people are plants as well as animals?
Tom: Sure. Haven't you heard of couch potatoes?

Crow: You know, I've been to Planet Earth, but I've never
been to me.

Tom: Same Orb time, same Orb channel!

Mike: I know a thing or two about a thing or two.

Crow: Well, *we* find it extremely funny that you believe
that we believe they do.

Tom: Rave on, brothers and sisters!
All: Whooo!

Mike: Every smile we make, every breath we take, they'll be
watching us.

Tom: So, not at *all* like crop circles.

> 50 feet deep into it, and about six times the

Crow: They'd probably ask them to finish the Crazy Horse
Monument.

> since it would be something that humanity couldn't make.

Mike: Well, we *could.* We're just not stupid enough to
waste time on something like that.
Crow: What about Mt. Rushmore?
Mike: Well...if that had not been made, there wouldn't have
been such a cool ending for 'North by Northwest.'
Crow: True.

> They were thinking of making it overnight, one night,

Mike: Yes, making something overnight implies that you did
it one night.

> near

Tom: And unadvisable.
Crow: And unforgivable.

> TEAM ORB was surprised

Mike [as Orb Being]: Oh, bite me. It's fun!

> "Humans need to

Crow: Oh, human males learn it every time they go out on a
date. Right, Mike?
Mike: That's the truth.

>
> They find us both comical and quite a bit insane: we kill

Tom: Oh, yeah. Kosovo's a real laugh-riot.

> over something so stupid

Crow: I believe that would be Jesus Christ.

Tom: And I think that would be Mohammed.

Mike: And that would be Moses. I don't think these
identifications are the exact causes of dispute,
lilac.

Crow: They say Shaft is one bad Mullah--
Tom and Mike: Shut yo' mouth!
Crow: I'm just talkin' 'bout Shaft.

Tom: All right...

Tom: Preach it, brother!

Mike [as lilac]: Of all the posts on all the newsgroups,
Pearl had to send on mine...

Crow: And Gap stores and beauty salons and bicycle repair
places...

collections...
Mike: And Foot Lockers and stockbrokerages and
fluglehorn distributors...

Tom: So God's got blackheads on his legs?
Mike: Tom?
Tom: Yes, Mike?
Mike: If you end up burning in hell for that one, I'll be
joining you, 'cause that was flippin' funny.
Tom: Thanks, Mike!

Crow: You know, if the dead really *could* haunt the
living, lilac would get *such* a visit from Strunk
and White.

Tom: Ooh. Better enjoy it while you can, folks--the one
nearly poetic phrase in this whole stream of idiocy.

>
> That's why they believe us both comical and insane!

Crow: They're coming to take me away, ha ha!

Mike: ...their desire to carve 50-foot designs into a
mountainside. Way to preserve our environment,
Orbs!

Tom: No, it's called common sense. You might want to try
some, lilac.

Crow: Sorry, lilac. I'm purging this from my memory as
soon as possible.

Mike: Oh, yeah. The existence of Peeping-Tom Orb Beings
is a *real* boost to our motivation.

>
> Which is why it really doesn't matter that

Crow [as lilac]: I'm spamming people by crossposting this.
I've got to find those few who will believe me!

All: Too bad!

Mike: Does Amnesty International know about this?

Tom: Is he saying what I *think* he's saying?

Tom: Lilac, listen carefully. "Windows" is the name of your
*operating system.* It's *not* supposed to be
taken literally!

Tom: Well, yes, ice generally is cold right away.

Crow: Hey! I don't like preservatives in my ice packs!

> excellent

Mike [as Mr. Whipple]: Oh, please don't squeeze the ice
packs.
Tom: Mike, didn't you know he switched sides a few years
ago?
Mike: He did?
Tom: Yep.
Mike: Traitor.

> Printed just about any

Crow: You tell us--you're the one sellin' 'em.

>
> The price range: $0.23 to $.36 per ice pack in the above
> quantities ONLY,

Tom: Wait, wait, wait! So you can only order them in
quantities of 150,000 or *10,000,000?!* Does he have
*any* idea how big a number that is? Or how big a
place you'd need to *store* them all?
Mike: Let's find out. Gypsy!
[Gypsy enters from left.]
Gypsy: Yeah?
Mike: If you had ten million ice bags, each measuring five
inches by ten inches by...oh, let's say one inch,
and you wanted to store them in a one-story, square
building, how long would the sides have to be?
Gypsy: 591.6 feet, Mike.
Mike: There ya go, Tom. Nearly as long as two football
fields.
Tom [shaking his head]: Un-be-*liev*-able.

> delivered just about anywhere in 40 foot
> container amounts.

Crow: And the containers he ships them in are forty feet
long?! Can he *possibly* come up with a more unwieldy
plan? And...hey, Gypsy. If each container was...
say...forty feet by five feet by two feet, how many
would be needed to ship ten million?
Gypsy: 8,750.
Crow: Heh. Use a small shipping company, and they'd probably
get their entire year's income from one order.
Tom: Thanks for your help, Gyps.
Gypsy: No prob. [She exits.]

>
> For serious buyers only, sorry...

Tom: Yeah, right. Any serious buyers would realize how
idiotic this is.

Crow: Yeah, if you're talking about Trianic Ningies.

> If you are a store chain or huge supplier,

Mike: No one's *that* huge, lilac.

>
> Contact: 908-272-3330 (John)

Crow: These *posts* belong in the john.

>
> or email me back here!

Tom: So what did this have to do with Orbs?
Mike: Nothing. My guess is that the free trips and numerous
requests to buy Orb photos they were envisioning didn't
pan out.

Crow: Thank you, John, for showing us the most *ridiculous*
sales and shipping plan in the history of business.

Crow: All *right!*
Mike: Crow, you know there isn't going to be anything like
that in this post.
Crow: Fine. Just squelch my libido, why don't you?
Mike: You don't even *have* a libido!
Crow: And how would you know?
Mike: Ummm...

Mike: So were we when we first heard about it...and we've
yet to change our minds.

>
> After five months of analysis of the data,

Tom: Man, those scientists are slow--what is their deal?
Mike: Better watch it, Tom. You're close to precipitating
a fourth wall breech.
Tom: Whoops--sorry.

Crow [as lilac]: They were completely convinced that we're
nuts.

Mike: ...with a tiger trap. They also tend to kill flies
with an elephant gun.

Tom [with heavy echo]: Enter, Beeblebrox! Enter the Vortex!

Mike: What, no shopping sprees at the West Edmonton Mall?
Tom: No Cubs games?
Crow: No bar crawls through New Orleans?

Tom: Fiji's Pentagon, however, has been using it for years.

Crow: Yeah, just like Peter Lee and Aldrich Ames didn't
escape their attention.

Mike [as Groucho]: Straaaange Vortex. Weeeeeird Vortex.

Tom: So the evidences of the Orbs are also Orbs? This makes
no sense!

Crow: They're watching "Where in the World is Carmen Orb?"

> A study team set up by the Department of Defense,

Tom: ...pulled an all-nighter at the library. Mid-terms,
you know.

Tom: Jointly with *what?*
Mike: I think he means they used their joints a lot. Maybe
there was a lot of cracking knuckles or something.
Crow: Or maybe they *smoked* a lot of joints. That would
explain a lot.

Crow: ...I've lost ten pounds!

Tom: Pluverized? It was rained on a lot?
Crow: Or maybe he meant ploverized, and it was attacked by
a flock of birds.

> by Pentagon experts watching the Vortex and
> watching the American Science Foundations' TEAM ORB,

Mike: So the Pentagon wrecked their own equipment?
Tom: Lilac simply does *not* know how to get his attributions
right!

Crow: Well, it *did* say "Do not open before X-mas."

Mike: Someone probably wished springs away again.
Crow [as Coily]: No springs! [whistles]

Tom [as Marvin the Martian]: That makes me very angry...
[pants a bit] very angry indeed.

Crow: ...said, "Hi. I'm Ed Koch. How'm I doing?"

Tom: They got too frustrated with the Department of Defense's
voice mail system.
Mike: If you'd like to request that we bomb someone, press 1.
If you'd like to spy for us, press 2. If you'd like
to spy *against* us, press 3...

> They are very much against war and intrigue, these beings!"

Tom: So, of course, they're studying us covertly.
Crow [as Glinn Gusat]: Makes sense.

Mike [as lilac]: ...for our psychiatric care.

Tom: ...aluminum siding.

Crow: So *they* can observe and study humanity--especially
that supermodel living next door. Rrrowl!

Mike [singing]: Imagine all the benefits/ Spying on your
friends!

Crow: Suuuure he did.
Tom: Ever want to have aliens, government officials, and
company executives spy on you with alien technology?
You will...

Crow: Well, yes, pictures produced by Photoshop are forms
of technology.

Tom: [in Droopy-type voice]: I don't like you.

Crow: *Their* equipment is more than welcome. Heh heh.

Crow: And Team ORB welcomes the objects!
Mike: All right, Crow. We got it.

> We hope to interest TEAM ORB in a technology

Tom: If these aliens are so advanced, what the heck would
they want with *our* technology?
Mike: Give it up, Tom. There's no use applying logic to
this.

Tom: Well, only if you don't count the restraining orders
as responses.

Crow: Well, since bunkers tend to just sit there, I suppose
it would be easy to fend them off.

Tom: Take me to the Vortex. Throw me in the Doorway.

Mike [as lilac]: Of course, those members of the public
didn't actually *return* from the Vortex. But I can
assure you that these photos were taken by them!

Crow: No, humanity's just ignoring you.

Tom: The new exercise system by NordicTrack!

Crow [as Austin Powers]: Yeah! Bring it on, baby! [normal]
Excuse me--I'll just go throw myself out the airlock
now.
Mike: No, it's all right. Just...don't ever do that again.

Mike: And why they are here.
Tom: And where they are going.
Crow: And who they serve, and who they trust.
Mike [as he picks up Tom]: Guess we can add "Babylon 5" to
that list of interests.

Crow [as they leave the theater]: I give these posts four
minuses!

[Doors]

[SOL bridge. We can see nothing but fog. Finally, three
dark, vague shapes appear.]

Crow: Man, if people are going to foist their alien
theories on us, I wish they'd keep them consistent!
Tom: No kidding! First these Orbs are simple lens
reflections, then they can project images, then
they're some sort of mechanical device, then they're
the Beings themselves! And that meadow in New
Jersey--heck, I didn't even know there *were* any
there. And first it's the gathering point of the
Orbs, then it's a Vortex, then it's a Doorway for
the Beings! If they can get here themselves, what
the heck did they need the Orbs for?
Crow: Yeah, and what was the *deal* with the "shuttlecraft?"
Tom: Any ideas, Mike?
Mike: Sorry, guys, I'm in a fog.
Crow: Yeah, I know what you mean.
Mike: No, I mean it. I'm in a fog! What's going on?
Crow: Oh, is *that* what this is?
Tom: Well, Mike, fog forms when the air temperature and
the dewpoint are equal, then the air cools and
causes condensation--
Mike: I know all that. But where is it coming from up
here?
Crow: Probably from those monsoon rains in your room--oops.
Mike [sighing]: I'd better check it out. You guys keep an
eye out for the Mads' call.
Tom: Well, we'll *try.*

[Mike's shape slowly disappears. We hear him bump into
things and say "Ow!" a lot.]

Crow: Be careful!

[The Mads' list starts flashing. Crow starts stabbing at
it. After a moment, through sheer luck, he hits it.]

[Castle Forrester]

[Things look much the same as before...except no one is
standing in front of the blue-screen. Also, the light
on the camera in front of the blue-screen isn't on-
they're evidently not broadcasting anymore.]

Mrs. F.: So how was the post, Nel-steam? Where *are* you,
anyway?

[SOL]

Crow: Oh, it sucked as always. And Mike's here...he's
just...ahh...
Tom: He lost his voice. All this dampness, you know.
Crow: Yeah. Anyway, how's your weather scheme going?

[Castle]

Mrs. F.: Oh, these two imbeciles scuttled it. [She yanks
Bobo and Observer in from either side, fingers
firmly pinching their ears.]
Observer: Ow! Madam, I'll have you know that it was *not*
my fault! I was performing flawlessly, despite the
fact that I have evolved beyond the need to care
about the weather. It was that garrulous gorilla
that wrecked it with his impossible weather
scenarios!
Bobo: What did *I* do?
Observer: You *cannot* have flash floods in a blizzard!
Bobo: Says who? I saw it myself when I was a little
gorilla! The water flowing out of the lake and
over the rocks...the white flakes streaming away
from those plant stalks--
Observer: Those were dandelion seeds by a stream, you
dolt!

[Mrs. F. hauls hard on their ears and knocks their heads
together, ala Hercules or Xena. They both collapse,
with Observer helpfully providing a sound effect of
chirping birds as he does so.]

Mrs. F.: Anyway, you guys were right. Once people saw
that it was just the three of us providing weather
information, they stopped watching.

[SOL]

Crow: Told ya so. Never underestimate the power of
weather babes.

[Castle]

Mrs. F.: I *hate* it when you're right. You'll be
paying for it with your next post. I guarantee it!

[SOL]

[We hear Mike open the door to his room. We next hear the
voice of many waters rushing out, making Mike yell as
he is completely soaked.]

Tom: Assuming we live that long...
Crow [yelling]: Gypsy! Try to keep the fog going! [A
lumbering shape looms out of the fog.] Beat it, Tom!

[Both bots' shapes disappear as Mike's form tries to grab
one of them.]

Mike: I'll show you flash floods--come back!

[Mike's shape disappears into the fog.]
