The Outing of Astronaut Boy, Part 7 by Jeanster 2-05-04

Astronaut Monkey removes his airsuit. I do feel more comfortable out of that airsuit. That's good. Why don't you go make yourself comfortable in that chair over there? You mean that chair with all those scary-looking devices around it? No, thanks. I'm quite comfortable standing right here. Oh, but I insist. And so does my little friend here, Mr. Ray Gun. See? I am so screwed, aren't I? You will be in a few minutes. You didn't expect to get a ride aboard our ship without an obligatory probing session, did you? It's tradition. Don't you ever watch The X-Files?

The Outing of Astronaut Boy, Part 8 by Jeanster 2-05-04

Geek Boy and Astronaut Boy spend one last night together before Astronaut Boy is to search for Astronaut Monkey. Ninja Warrior told me that Hero Dude wants you. Do you know anything about that? Oh, that. He only asked me to go out with him if things don't work out between you and me. But we're okay, right? You and me are a good thing, right? Of course we are. I won't let anyone come between us. Good. Neither will I. Let's go to bed. I have to leave early in the morning to search for that monkey.

After the probing session Astronaut Monkey is locked in the brig of the telepathic beings' space ship. What do you want now? Please don't probe me again. I promise to be good. Promise all you want. The ship's captain wants to probe you personally. You'll be taken to his quarters. Finish eating that banana. You'll need your strength. Suddenly they hear a loud buzzing. What's that buzzing sound? Wait here. I'll get that. It must be the pizza we ordered. Pizza? I hope they got the order right. Last time they forgot the mushrooms and pepperoni.

The Outing of Astronaut Boy, Part 10 by Jeanster 2-07-04

Geek Boy is watching his favorite cartoon series when suddenly. . . We interrupt this program to bring you this important breaking news story! It had better be important. You butted right into the middle of Justice League! Astronaut Monkey has been rescued! We bring you now live in front of the White House. Astronaut Boy, how did you rescue Astronaut Monkey from that alien space ship? I couldn't have done it without Hero Dude. It was his idea to disguise himself as the Intergallactic Pizza Delivery Guy to get us aboard that ship. My Gay-dar picked up strong vibes from Hero Dude each time he looked at Astronaut Boy during my rescue. Geek Boy is in for some competition.

Meanwhile at the Laboratory. . . Mission complete. You can change me back now, Dr. Mad Scientist. Glad I could help, Hero Dude. Ah, that's more like it. Hero Dude, you just finished helping Astronaut Boy rescue Astronaut Monkey. What will you do now? I'm going to steal that cute Astronaut Boy from that loser Geek Boy, that's what.

Hero Dude pays a visit to a local Witch. I need a love spell. Can you help me? That depends. My spells are not cheap. Can you afford to pay dearly for what you desire? Ninja Warrior warns Astronaut Boy. Be careful, Astronaut Boy. Hero Dude is obsessed with you. He will stop at nothing to steal you away from Geek Boy. What do you think he'll do? That night in Geek Boy's bedroom . . . I love you, Geek Boy. And I love you, Astronaut Boy.

The Witch casts the love spell. There. The funds have been electronically deposited into your account. Are you sure the love spell will work? Positive. Astronaut Boy will be yours within the hour. Sure enough, Geek Boy is dumped by Astronaut Boy. I don't understand. Just last night you told me you loved me. Sorry, Geek Boy. I just don't feel the same way about you anymore. Good-bye. Astronaut Boy wastes no time throwing himself at Hero Dude. I'm all yours for the taking, Hero Dude. Can I finally see what you look like under that mask? Now that you are mine, I feel I can trust you with my secret identity.

Hero Dude paid a handsome sum to the Witch for a love spell. He has stolen Astronaut Boy from Geek Boy. I'll pay you handsomely to reverse what the Witch has done. Agreed. And sure enough . . . Never mind showing me what you look like under that mask. You no longer rock my world. I'm going back to Geek Boy, if he'll have me. Ack! What happened?! Astronaut Boy is surprised and happy when Geek Boy takes him back. Hero Dude used a love spell on me? Yes. See? I've hacked into his bank account and that of the Witch. A large sum of money was paid to her shortly before you broke up with me.

Hero Dude meets with the Witch, the Wizard and also the Fairy for good measure. Okay, here's the deal. I'll pay all three of you to help me win back Astronaut Boy from that loser Geek Boy. Agreed. The three magical beings figure if they play their cards right they'll be able to retire in style. Agreed. Agreed. Ninja Warrior has alerted Astronaut Boy and Geek Boy of Hero Dude's plan. I feel like a puppet being manipulated by supernatural forces. Time to call in the calvary. I'll send him an e-mail. Let's hope he gets it in time to help us.

The artist who draws Hero Dude receives Geek Boy's e-mail message. . . . so can you please help us? Sure thing, Geek Boy. I'll get my Magic Drawing Pad. The artist knows just what to do when a hero goes bad. First we delete Hero Dude with my Magic Eraser. Hey! What are you doing with that?

After deleting Hero Dude with the Magic Eraser, Hero Dude's memory fades. Oh, shit! Just you wait until I , uh, hey, wait a second. Who am I? And now I recreate Hero Dude with a fresh new memory. And thus, Hero Dude is reborn, this time with no selfish desire to break up happy couples. Hi! I'm Hero Dude! Crime-fighter and all-around do-gooder!

And everybody in town lived happily ever after . . . Once again you've saved the day for us, Hero Dude! Thank you! My pleasure, Mr. Mayor. . . . thanks to the artist with his Magic Drawing Pad, Eraser and Pencil. Astronaut Boy and Geek Boy would never forget how the artist helped them. We'll always be together, won't we? Always. Until the end of time.

The Diet by Jeanster 2-09-04

I'm off to the grocery store, Tweetsie. Be right back. Hey, I thought I saw a Kitty Cat! Well, isn't that thoughtful of Granny. *BURP!* She remembered that I'm on the high-protein/low-carb diet.
