Jim Drab was thinking of various things, letting his mind wander this way and that, not really caring what he thought about, as long as he looked busy thinking of things. Suddenly, he had a thoughtful thought. (I think) "Heeeey.... wait a minute. If I don't run Plotline Hotline anymore, WHO DOES?"

The Mutant Inverted Blue Octopus Known As John Jacobson To Only His Close Friends And Your Excellency To Everyone Else Who Was At All Polite Which Is Beginning To Be A Rarer And Rarer Trait World Wide To The Great Disappointment Of National Behavior Scientists Who Like Eating Spinach Cupcakes And Drinking Marmelade Skies With Lucy's Diamonds (TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLES CADMSWLC) used his Ultra Spiffy Spiffyful Spiffy Spiffish Go Cart to ride through the forests, his servants/Plotline Hotline employees on his heels, as they searched for Blagagna. Uni Corny tripped over his own feet, and fell into a conviniently placed ditch, sucessfully kicking Bill Bored in the face while flailing arms and legs about. TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC glared with red eyes and Uni Corny, and continued to drive haphazardly through the Wabbit Woasters Woods, blowing up trees with a LFG 4000.61 clasped in two of TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC's 10 tentacles. So technically, he was more of a Inverted Blue Decopus, but that didn't sound nearly as catchy. Then the Server Stopped, and TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC and the Plotline Hotline employees suddenly found themselves in the mystic land of "Choose a Server". TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC, being the oldest Inverted Blue Anythingopus alive, having never layed eggs due to constapation, had seen this land many times before. He had seen Armaggedon hack into the Warner Bros server by fooling the Password guard, and he had seen Warner04 later being roasted for supplying the real password instead of the fake one. He had seen.... well, better not to go into detail. Ahz Sleep gasped in horror at how ugly some of the rabbits entering servers were, while TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC kept a wary eye looking for Blagagna. Little did he know Newspaz, who was passing by right at that moment, had already brought down his quary.
"What?!?" asked TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC.
"Nonononono, that was NARRATION! Not Current Author Speak! You didn't hear that!"
"Oh, you're probably right. Sorry to have bothered you."
So I patted the evil TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC on the head, and created a little fade out effect that changed the scene.

Charlie drove on and on, through hill and over dale, under sea and over cloud, through rain, snow and houses until he reached the general area the War Tavern was located in. He slowed down, giving Kovu time to jump out of the trunk with a funky ninja move, and grasp ahold of the top of the trunk. Swinging back and forth, Kovu managed to somersault onto the truck's top, and crawled carefully along until he reached the end, at which point he flipped through the open window into the passenger seat. "Hi." said Charlie briefly, and kept driving. Kovu, however, was unusually curious. "Charlie, did 122 War Tavern road order extra crunchy pickles?"
"Nah. They ordered extra soft, just the way some friend of theirs' called Kovu likes them, for his welcome back party."
Thinking it was a different Kovu, Kovu computed the sentence up to the first "," until he arrived at a conclusion. "Charlie, we're delivering the wrong Happy Puppy Pickles! The ones in back are all hard and metallic, and make beeping noises like a-"
BOOOM.

Shigeru floated helplessly in Teh (It has to be Teh) GamCub Dimenson, looking at least for some Pikmin to play with. Then PeekABoo arrived. Shigeru groaned. PeekABoo was so useless, all he would do is try to play PeekABoo with you. Closing his eyes, Shigeru awaited the arrival of ChargedSpanner or someone.

Meanwhile, Ancoysnd began production of JJ4, giving the public no time to really learn all the subtle bugs in JJ3 before a no version came along. It was obvious that was what EPIC had done wrong.

Cobra and Ducky stood by the road, happily waving their thumbs. A truck came by, but it exploded just before it reached them, so that was no good. After a few bozos, a racing car drove up, skidded to a halt (sucessfully making roadkill of one of GenEX's birdies) and opened the back seat door. The owner, who looked vaugely like Elfis, grinned and said "Hop on in!". Ducky and Cobra climbed into the back seat, carefully dragging Unknown Rabbit along with them. "So, where are you tw- three going?" asked the driver jauntily, breaking both the speed laws and the speed of sound. "Well, we're going to 122 War Tavern road, but I think a stopover at a hospital first wouldn't be amiss." "Can do!"

Some time after The Old Inverted Blue Octopus dies, The New Inverted Blue Octopus is born, and is blind at birth, and feeds by eating any living creature that goes by, just by feeling the water currents. At 3-6 years, the Inverted Blue Octopus aquires eyesight, then deals enormous damage to all denizens of the deep. Also the land, as several people have reported seeing Inverted Blue Octopuses on land, eating insurance salesmen. No one really cared, however, so the police paid little attention. At about 68.33333333333333333333333333333333333 years, the Inverted Blue Octopus reaches maturity, and starts mutilating crabs, then laying its eggs in their still beating heart. This has been a repeat of BBC and the Discovery Channel.

Newspaz wandered in a wandering fashion into Samg, where he met up with Darth Maul and now he's toast. Well, I'm still here and he's a rather tasty breakfast meal often asorbed by bi or not by pedual **** sapiens in large quanities. Eventually he'll be reincarnated as Newspaz again, and will set about making Meza2, a version of Mez02A in 3D, which nobody but Newspaz would be able to imagine until it's finished.

The BBC and the Discovery Channel bid you a good knight, and an evil dragon.

Kovu, Charlie and the single Happy Puppy Pickle that had not been a bomb went flying out of the truck, miraculously unhurt. "Quick, Kovu, HOLD THE PICKLE!" screamed Charlie, as they both went falling towards Adventure Island, where all the Elements raged against eachother in epic battles that might someday be converted into a simulation/strategy game. Gosh, thought Kovu, I never knew Adventure Island was so close to 122 War Tavern road! Of course, I never knew it existed, either....

Meanwhile, Ancoysnd had finished JJ4, distributed it world wide, made umpteen unheardofillions and was starting production on JJ5 before any of the public could notice what a rush job JJ4 had been.

"So," said the driver, "what do you do for a living?"
"Well," said Ducky, "I take various jobs, but like most of my friends, never really seem to keep one. The other girl has the same trouble, and the near-dead guy is in training to be a Bumble Bee Watcher."
"Really? Some Bumbly Beez do that to him?"
"Actually, I think it was a turtle."
"Ah. What was he doing watching a turtle, then?"

Suddenly, Shigeru Whatsit, always a man of the times, was upgraded into the GameRhomadececedron Dimension.

"THE READERS HAVE BEEN IN SUSPENSE LONG ENOUGH! TELL US WHAT IS SO EXTREMLY IMPORTANT ALREADY!"
"Ok, ok. Listen. It is extremly important that...."

ANTI-TUBBS aka ANTE TUBBES aka ANTI-ANTI-NEGATIVE-NOT ANTI-S WITH AN OVERSLASH thought of a new way to capture Tubbs. Tubbs loved explosions, so he would get a big truck to explode! Tubbs was sure to come. Thinking for a little while, ANTI-ANTI-NEGATIVE-NOT ANTI-S WITH AN OVERSLASH decided on a Happy Puppy Pickle truck, which was very simple to do, as he was in charge of that as well as Opposition Publishing Co. Inc.. He also ran Happy Kitty Kangaroo Ko., Blargle's Boasting Barf Photos and Kristina Krazy's Koala Masks. Giving instructions to one of the Happy Puppy mascots, ANTI-ANTI-NEGATIVE-NOT ANTI-S WITH AN OVERSLASH wondered what products Opposition Publishing Co. Inc. could come up with to rival Nintendo's new JJ3, JJ4 and possible JJ5. Finally, he came up with "Snozz SnackSquirrel 2".

"So we've told you about us, but we've heard nothing about you? What's your name, Mr. Driver Guy, and what do you do?"
"My name is Bond, James Bond. I work for Acme Imports."
"No!"
"You're probably right. My parents always told me I had big dreams, and if I didn't do something about them, I would start saying the weirdest things to people I've just met. I never did anything about it."

Kovu, who had lost Charlie in the mist around Adventure Island which for some reason only obscured nouns when you were in it, started singing. "THIIIIIISSS IS THHHHHEEEE WAAAAAAYYY WEEEEEEEEEEEEE SIIIIIINNNGGGG TOOOOOO LOOOUUUUDDDD, SIIIIIIIINNNGGGGGGGGGG TOOOOOO LOOUDDD, SIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGG TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOO LOOUUUDDDD....." However, before he could set to work on the next 75 and a half verses, a flying jackhammer flew over and told him he was being way to loud, as this was a public skyway. Blushing, Kovu said he was sorry, and landed right in the Volcano of Adventure Island. Fortunately, due to the magical talisman given to him by the Mages of Jarntiylizareg (see torn off part of page) he was unhurt, and merely fell through the lava into an underground system of caves, tunnels and anicent buildings, where he met Disguise doing some research.

TMIBOKAJJTOHCFAYETEEWWAAPWIBTBARARTWWTTGDONBSWLESC ADMSWLC at last got bored of waiting, and walked into a server named "LEGENDS ONLY" with the Plotline Hotline employees following, just before this post ran out of characters. It was a very close thing, however.
