[Opening Sequence]
[SOL, Mike and Crow are standing around the SOL bridge looking
bored]
MIKE: Do you know where Tom wants?
CROW: No, he just told me to tell you to wait here. He said
something about a surprise, but I could barely hear him, he had
a sheet over his head.
TOM: <walks into the room covered by a sheet>
MIKE: Hey Tom, what's the surprise?
TOM: <Muffled sounds from beneath the sheet>
CROW: Can't hear you, Tom.
TOM: <Still muffled, but distiguishable> I said pull the sheet
off me and I'll show you.
[Mike pulls the sheet off of Tom, revealing that his dome is
full of gumballs]
TOM: Ta da! I figured, I've got gumballs, my head's a gumball
machine-- What the heck! I'll put some gumballs in there!
MIKE: That's a very good idea, Tom!
CROW: Can I have one?
TOM: Yeah, just hit that switch on my back.
MIKE: <Reaches around Tom and pushes a button on his back.>
TOM: <Disgusting loogie noises> Okay, hold on... <prolonged
snort> Just a minute... <short, loud snort> Okay, here!
[A gumball flies out of Tom's beak at Crow.]
TOM: Heh heh, sorry, I'm still working out--
[Another gumball flies at Mike]
TOM: Oh, sorry there Mike--
[Gumballs start flying uncontrollably out of Tom's mouth]
MIKE: Hit the floor!
[Mike and Tom dive for the floor. Mike reaches a hand up and
pulls down Tom]
TOM: Hey, don't! Ouch! That tickles!
[Mads light goes off and Mike reaches up to hit it]
[D13]
Dr. F.: Hello, Taban, Gato, Robo. I've got a- Wait a minute,
where are you?
[SOL]
<Mike slowly stands up with a bandage over his eye.>
MIKE: I'm fine now. What did you want to say, sir?
[D13]
Dr. F.: I wanted to say, Nelson, that I've been much too busy
to prepare a movie or search Usenet for you this week. I've
discovered a video gae called Chrono Trigger, and I'm investigting
it's addictive qualities.
However, games aside, I;ve got a nice little horror cooked up for
you today, a veritable Web Page from Hell marathon! It's a web page
for CyberAgency Industry International or something like that,
followed by an advertisement for a chain letter with a new angle:
it's endorsed by God! Without further ado, here are the pages:
choke on 'em, Toma!
[SOL]
[Movie Sign goes off]
ALL: We've got Web Page sign!
6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...
TOM: The black winds howl...
MIKE: I think Dr. F. is rubbing off on you, honey.
>CyberAdvertising Agency Services
TOM: CyberAdvertising Agency Services Company Place Thing
Incorporated, meeting your CyberAdvertising needs since 1986!
It's--<Tom gags as a gumball flies out at Crow>
CROW: Ouch!
MIKE: Was that the last one, Tom?
TOM: Yeah, I think so.
>
>This page has been seen 1935 times.
MIKE: By poor, unsuspecting newbies drawn into our web of lies.
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
CROW: Between this dotted line and the next is a complete list of
the reasons to try CyberAdvertising!
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>A Business Opportunity for the Serious Sales Entrepreneur
MIKE: --Doesn't end it's name in "Agency Services", as a
rule.
>
>
>Who wants to make $100+ per sale
TOM: Do you want to make $100+ per sale?
ALL: Sure, we all do!
>
>
>This is not a Get Rich Quick Scheme!
CROW: Of course not, perish the thought!
MIKE: Maybe it's a Get Rich Slow Scheme.
>
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>The Remuneration
ALL: <singing> Remuneration! Your the doctor!
>
>There are 3 main pay streams.
MIKE: And they're all great fishin'!
> These are
>1.30% on all sales made through your own efforts.
TOM: And at your own risk.
>2.10% on all sales made by friends and associates whom you introduce.
CROW: To our lonely CEO.
>This continues down for 3 levels.
MIKE:<Adolescent voice> Then you've got to fight the Dark Wizard,
and he's tough if you don't have the magic bubbles....
>3.15% on all annual renewals forever.
ALL: <as Animaniacs> And ever and ever and ever and ever....
>
>These are the basic details. Bonuses and incidentals are separate.
CROW: But equal.
> The full plan
MIKE: --for world domination--
>is available on request.
>The Work Involved
CROW: Is all taken care of by children in our factories in Korea.
>
> CyberPages International has Advertising Web Space for sale .
>The agency is responsible for selling this Web Space.
TOM: If they ever want to see their families again.
> By joining the agency, you are given the right to market the
>CyberWebSpace.
MIKE: And the right to JamWordsTogetherToMakeThemLookCool.
TOM: How did you do that?
> Your essential tasks are as follows:
>Target your market segments -- Hotels, Importers, Translators...
CROW: And then fire upon them without mercy.
>Call and, on approval, send them Company literature which we initially
>supply.
MIKE: Mailbombs are available for those tough sales.
CROW: Woo-hoo! Mailbomb jokes are allowed!
MIKE: Only for mature adults, Crow.
CROW: This from Mike "I like Voltron" Nelson.
>Call again and endeavor to convince them to advertise using
>CyberPages.
TOM: Call again if they refuse. Call again if they refuse. Repeat
as necessary.
> Obtain their advertising material. Fax, E-mail or snail mail it to us.
CROW: Though our business is entirely legal, you should label the box
"Camera Parts".
>We will "CyberPage" it for them on The Net.
CROW: We will "CyberPage" the crap out of it!
> Review the draft on-line and get confirmation.
MIKE: The draft? I see now, this is just some overblown enlistment
drive!
>Get their Payment and send it to us.( Cheque or Credit Card )
TOM: You can get the payment by pretending to spill food on their clothes
and gently removing their wallet.
>Receive your commission by the 20th of the following month.
CROW: So it could conceivably be fifty days before you get your
commission?
MIKE: I think that's a fail-safe so if anybody actually makes any
money the company has time to go out of business.
>
>The Rationale
TOM: Where? I've been looking for it!
>
> Every business advertises. CyberPages offers companies and individuals
>the opportunity to advertise at very competitive rates.
MIKE: Competitive to what? Hiring guys to run around and paint on
people's computers?
> Look around the CyberPages Web site, check out the statistics and the
>growth represented by the number of new sites visiting us each day.
TOM: Is it just me, or is that a completely incorrect use of the word
"site"?
MIKE: You remember that post we got from the guy who asked what the
Internet is and talked about having a "modum" for his toaster?
TOM: Yeah, why?
MIKE: I think he wrote this page.
> Now you must decide whether:
CROW: To take the cash or trade it all for what's behind door number
three!
>1.You have the flair to sell advertising space in this media.
TOM: Or the stupidity to buy advertising space from us, in which case
you should give us a call right away!
>2.The site is one whose concept, design, growth and development you can
>sell and support.
TOM: "Site", the all purpose noun, ladies and gentlemen!
> 3.You have the mental commitment and perseverance to play the
>numbers game.
MIKE: Lotto?
CROW: MathQuest?
TOM: Strip Algebra?
<Mike and Crow look at Tom for a moment, then turn away.>
> The more calls you make, the more success you will achieve
>but the more potential rejection you will encounter!!!
TOM: But don't let little things like restraining orders get in your
way!
> Every successful close is worth more than $100 to you.
CROW: Let's see, at about one "close" per month, that adds up to
almost as much as a Serf's salary!
>If you loose heart easily, this is not where you should be spending all
>your working time. However, you can also do it part time or interest
>others who have the aforementioned aptitude that perhaps you do not have.
MIKE: In other words, if you don't really believe in our system, at
least rook your friends into joining.
>
>The Revenue Potential
CROW: This is going to be a short section.
>
>
>The Annual contract is $360.- Commission $108
TOM: Gratuity: $8.50
>The Quarterly contract is $150.- Commission $45
>Graphics per image/photo is $30.- Commission $9
CROW: Price to _not_ release certain photos: $300.
>
>These figures
MIKE: --And what shapely figures they are--
> do not include commissions that you can earn by
>introducing your friends and associates to the team.
> While they earn the 30% rate, you still get 10%, for 3 levels down.
>The price quoted above is for
TOM: Satisfying those pesky "Truth in advertising" people.
>a 250 words text CyberPage. If the client wants forms,
CROW: Tell him where he can stick his forms. You don't have to take
any lip from him!
>return e-mail addresses, etc., there is an incremental
>cost. These extras are added to your revenue total for commission
>calculation.
>Your Cost
MIKE: <as Webmaster> My personal favorite section!
>
>There is a one time non-refundable initiation fee of $50.-
CROW: Plus you have to swallow a goldfish and walk around in your
underwear on campus for a whole day.
>to join the Agency. There is also an annual renewal fee of $20.- to defray
>the cost of administration of the compensation plan and sales support
>activities.
TOM: Why do I get the feeling that that's a complicated way of saying
"people and stuff"?
> When we receive your initiation fee, you will be sent a Sales Support
>Pack, personalized with your name.
MIKE: Plus a cardboard membership card and Super-Secret Decoder Ring!
>Caution
MIKE: Smoking may be hazardous to your health.
CROW: Always wear safety goggles.
TOM: Objects in the mirror appear closer than they are.
>
> This form of work is not for everyone and is NOT a Get Rich Quick
>endeavor.
TOM: _Someone_'s in denial.
> So do not rush into it. Consult your friends, family and
>business associates as you contemplate your decision.
MIKE: But if they tell you to find real work, who needs them?
> Try to pre-sell the concept to them to get a feel for the potential
>market in your area.
CROW: If anyone breaks any of your limbs, the market probably isn't
ready for your innovative services.
> Although the market is huge, you will only succeed if you have a selling
>and marketing aptitude and an ability to persevere.
TOM: Through being broke months at a time.
>More Information
TOM: Oh please, for the love of God, no!
>
>Please send me more information About CyberAdvertising Agency Service
CROW: Look, even the author doesn't know what's going on!
MIKE: At least he's leveling with us.

>THE PRAYER LIST
MIKE: <English acent> Oh Lord, bless this thine hand grenade...
>
>
>
>Hello, my name is John Austin.
ALL: Hi, John!
>
>What I am about to tell you is an AMAZING, True story.
TOM: Servo's Net rule #38: If they have to tell you it's a true story,
it's not.
>
>I am a God fearing born-again Christian, who lived in a small town in
>North Carolina.
CROW: I spent my youth in a small log cabin built by- No wait, that's
Abraham Lincoln.
> For years I went to a small church regularly. I paid my
>tithes and offering every week.
MIKE: This is unrelated to the story, but interesting none the less.
> I attended church service three to four
>times a week.
TOM: Usually four, but sometimes God's gotta cancel appointments.
MIKE: He's a busy Guy.
> I always believed that the Lord had a blessing for me and
>all those who believe in God; no matter what religion!
CROW: As long as they engage in the proper animal sacrifices, of
course.
> Out night I had a heavy burden on my heart....
MIKE: It turned out to be gas.
> The little church I had attended for so long needed a new building! We
>the Members of the church, and the community needed a financial miracle."
TOM: Hey, who lost a quotation mark? We found it over here!
>I remembered the Scripture - Malachi 3:10...." Bring the whole tithe
>into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house.
CROW: Many historians have translated this to mean "That there may be
a new boat in John Austin's garage."
> "Test me in this" saith the Lord of Hosts, and see if I will not throw
>open the floodgates of Heaven and pour out so much blessing that you
>will not have room enough for it! (New International Version).
TOM: Here's the sentence with the missing quotation mark. We'll have
to do a transplant.
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>I really didn't know how to (test God)!
MIKE: Or how to stop (speaking in parentheses)!
> Then I remember, for years I received mail about people who made money
>by giving money to people on a mailing list.
CROW: Strangely, all of them were named Dave Rhodes.
> 'By giving one to five dollars to be on their mailing list; and made
>literally fortunes by doing so.
MIKE: I think he saves the middle of that sentence for his paying
readers.
> It was legal, according to Title 18, Section 1302, U.S. Postal Service
>Regulations. SO I prayed and fasted for seven days, and seven nights...
TOM: And I never bragged about it to a soul. I'm so humble.
>and asked God to bless a list which I made. And in my Spirit the words
>"THE PRAYER LIST" came to mind.
MIKE: <as Church Lady> I wonder who's responsible for that? Could it
be... SATAN?!
> For a moment I Imagined thousands upon thousands,... and in time...
>millions upon millions of people
MIKE: <singing> Livin' for today...
>praying for people for people
CROW: Who say things twice twice...
>on a mailing list that they don't even know!!!
TOM: I don't know this mailing list! Who subscribed me?
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>And the way THE PRAYER LIST works is, You have five names
MIKE:--if you are schizophrenic--
>and addresses
MIKE: --if you are a fugitive--
>on the PRAYER LIST when you receive it. You send $7.00 (seven) Dollar
TOM: $7.00 Dollar? What's that mean?
MIKE: Maybe a seven dollar bill?
> in an envelope to the first name and address on the list. Then remove
>the first person off the PRAYER LIST.
CROW: Don't bother praying for him, because God doesn't need people
yakking to him about idiots who join mailing list scams.
> But be sure to write down that person's name and address on a separate
>piece of paper and save it...
MIKE: If you've got it when the police come, you might be able to
bargain.
>I'll tell you why in a minute. Then move the number two (#2) person's
TOM: Hey, it's the new PC name for those people who clean up crap at
zoos: Number two people.
>name into the number one (# l) position (or slot), And do the same with
>the remaining three names on the PRAYER LIST,
MIKE: Who's sacred name must always be shouted.
> Moving them up one position higher, each!
CROW: The exclamation mark somehow fails to add any excitement to this.
> until you have four names in all. than add your name to the bottom of
>the list, in the position number five (#5) and now you're all ready to
>go with your own PRAYER LIST.
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>Now for the seven days keep the five people of your original PRAYER LIST
TOM: In a cool, damp place.
>(four names plus the one you saved and wrote down) in PRAYER, For God to
>bless and change their
CROW: Underwear.
>lives. When Me and Members of my church gave THE PRAYER LIST out we
>started receiving envelopes with
MIKE: --hate mail inside almost every day!
>$7.00 dollars in cash and a new name to keep in PRAYER in the mail
>everyday Praise God! Praise God! Praise God!.
TOM: Somehow, I think God would rather not have his name on this whole
thing.
> I don't remember how many PRAYER LISTS the other six Members gave out,
>but I gave out seven PRAYER LISTS a week, at the beginning. After three
>weeks, I was receiving hundreds of envelopes every week.
CROW: As my reputation grew, fewer and fewer exploded on me!
> Then hundreds in days, almost everyday. Praise God! Praise God! Praise
>God!.
TOM: <as God> Stop that or I'll see you in court!
> In six weeks my life changed from that point on. I started in February,
>1996. Six Months after that I became a multi-millionaire.
MIKE: Of course, winning the Publisher's Clearinghouse prize couldn't
have hurt.
> "Praise God!". So if you were praying for a financial miracle to come,
>this is it! RIGHT DOWN FROM HEAVEN.
MIKE: Right up from Heck's more like it.
> Praise God It Works!!!. Just $7.00 and keeping the seven names, and all
>the new names in PRAYER. "I AM RICH TODAY!".
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>To tell you a little about what I did with some of the MONEY ...
TOM: Because we're so intensely interested....
> I gave a half million$$$ to my Church....
CROW: And gave no thought to revealing the gift to the public for
glory.
>Hundred of thousands of dollars to so many other Organizations.
MIKE: I didn't give 'em, but somebody did!
> I Bought a 750 Acre Ranch, Full of live stock and produce, along with
>some hired help. I vacation 3 Months a year, And can travel to all the
>church conventions...
TOM: Which are so important to me because I'm a God-fearing
Christian, as you should remember if you are thinking about reporting my
chain letter.
> Just to name a few of these things which have changed in my life. (oh
>yeah, I almost forgot..I travel to my church conventions in my new
>$125,000.00 RV).
MIKE: It doesn't seem like any of the good guys were ever that rich in the
Bible...
CROW: I'm thinking a goat with a pentagram cut into it's throat was
part of that RV's sticker price.
MIKE: Very posssible.
> I hope and PRAY (THE PRAYER LIST) find you well.
TOM: What the heck are those parentheses for?
MIKE: Maybe he's so rich that he could afford to drop out of fourth
grade English.
> This PRAYER LIST has helped thousands and thousands of people both
>spiritually, financially and also in health. I and also a host of others,
>have put God to the test with the PRAYER LIST.
CROW: Our contestant on "Test that Diety" today is the Big Guy Himself,
Mister God! Let's give Him a hand, folks!
> As Spoken in Malachi 3:10. I hope you put God to the test also. And
>turn your life around from this day forth!
>
>MAY GOD BLESS YOU, AND SMILE UPON YOU.
>
>------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOM: I guess it's over...
>
>Here are a few other testimonies.....
TOM: Good God, man. where does it end?!
>
>Six months ago I received THE PRAYER LIST.
CROW: Like many others, I didn't think it could happen to me. So I'm
reminding you to use proper protection when-
MIKE: You were doing so well too, Crow.
> I'm not a Christian but I gave it a try. and in nine weeks I received
>over $25,000.00 dollars in $7 envelopes.
TOM: You'd eat up your fortune in trash bills for that many envelopes!
> I am now debt free in nine weeks! -John Kahn, Raleigh,
>N.C.
>
>I am a farmer-and I needed now farming equipment.
MIKE: Then this pile of genuine fertilizer came to me in the mail and
solved all my problems!
> And I prayed to God for a miracle. And a month afterward, I received
>THE PRAYER LIST. And I gave the list to some other farmers who was also
>not doing too well.
CROW: No feeling better than kicking a man with a chain letter when he's
down.
> After about 2 months we all bought new equipment. We received so much
>money, we didn't have to do farming if we didn't want to any more.
TOM: But we kept going anyway, 'cause we're dumber than the dirt we're

sequence plays>
[SOL, Crow is standing alone on the bridge.]
MIKE: <walks by> Crow, have you seen Tom?
CROW: No, I don't know where he could-
<Crow is cut off by organ music>
MIKE: Where's that coming from?
TOM: <walks on screen wearing a priest robe and somehow carrying a Bible>
Hello, friends. I'm Tom Servo, and I'd like to share with you my personal
experience.
CROW: Cut it out Tom, you're-
MIKE: Tom has something to tell us, Crow, let's hear him out.
TOM:<a spotlight centers on Tom and the SOL goes dark> As I was saying,
friends, my personal experience began in the midst of one of this world's
trials, the Web page of that philistine, John Austin. I saw that God
wasn't concerned with money, but with going to him and his people
for protection. That's why I'd like you to become my brother in
Servology.
MIKE: Servology? What's that?
TOM: It's my new religion, Mike! All you do is give us $10.00 every
month and you'll be protected.
CROW: Protected?
TOM: Yeah, you've got a nice life, it'd be a shame if something
_happened_ to it, if you know what I mean.
MIKE: I'm not going to pay you for protection!
TOM: Okay, I'll just go and pray then. <walks off>
MIKE: That was-- <A cheap lighting effect goes off over Mike> AHHH!
CROW: I'm, uh, I'm going to go pay Tom, all right? <Crow runs off>
MIKE: <Grabs Crow by the arm> Give him mine too, okay? <Mike hands Crow
some money. Crow runs off stage right.>
[The mads light flashes. Mike hits it.]
MIKE: What do you think, sir?
[D13]
Dr. F.: I see I've driven you're little red friend to crime... You're
next, Nelson! You're next!
