Snark It Up, FuzzBall!

Someone who is close personal friends with my favorite Sith Lord screams or yells “Noooo!” or says “I have a bad feeling about this.”

A proud presentation of Mark Trail Theatre and Granola Bars (tm), this story had bad guys, a hibernating bear, a French guy with a whole buncha kids, moose steaks, pontoon boats, Andy racing to the rescue, brain tumors, murder, a guy named Bull, Dudley Dooright, a canoe with an outboard motor, a stash of money, sand in the eyes…and Mark Trail, too! I’m sure it was exciting, but I still like the story about the big guy who loved the transgendered duck and his/her/its ducklings.

And now you know the rest of the story (thank you, Paul Harvey):

It’s the Great Galactic Emperor Chennux’s influence — the mind control! It is too great for mere humans to overcome! He speaks (well, it’s more of a shouting thing with him), and the masses rush to obey. If Abbey must dress in a primitively provocative manner, so be the Emperor’s will.
(Oh, yeah, this is for you, too, CC’s commodorejohn.)

No good reason to do this (aside from being scared by Niki and his mom’s hair).
