Twas This & Nothing More.


Gaius Octavius

1,350 views

Sunday last, as I sat sad and dreary at my computer contemplating posts at UNRV, there came a banging, a gentle banging, from the streets below. Twas the garbage men alerting sleeping citizens of the approaching Midnight Hour. This I thought, and nothing more. Then there came a peace shattering tingle from the phone. Me thought a lost and lonely soul seeking solace at the Plutonian shore. This me thought, and nothing more. Twas a fellow dweller in one of the stacked apartments, seeking my omniscient knowledge. "What's going on?", quoth she. "What are you talking about?" quoth me. "Don't you know?, look out of your window below", babbled she. And this I did as she did implore. Behold, there appeared to me squadrons of fire trucks, ambulances, cop cars, and first responders of all sorts all over the the road ways and walk ways. Their lights all flashing; quite a sight. Some building has gone alight, or some cop has been given a fright. This the god-Consul thought. This he thought, and nothing more. Then in the Stygian depths below, the Consul saw that the corps of cops and sundry were at my building's door. Then me thought that there was something more. Me dressed and flew through the apartment door seeking transportation to the lobby floor as me thought it an arson by my ancient enemies of yore. Twas not thus, the doorman did me implore. Twas some facing of the building falling on the unfortunate heads of unwary citizens wandering about in the the Gloom of Night. Thus twas it, and nothing more.

The god-Consul sees laughing-smiley-016.gif !

 

1. Domina prez of Co-op.

2. Domina was in 10uhC tending to sister who had operation.

3. :ph34r: felt that he should take a look at crumbling tepee and report status to Prez.

4. Gaius thought that temperature was 45 degrees (F) above, so he went down to Hades with only a shirt (and pants and shoes) on. No jacket.

5. Temperature was more like 45 below. Dark out there in these climes at Witching Hour. Took some time for ;) to see the matter.

6. Teeth commenced chattering; All parts of :rip: corpse initiated freezing process, from hair on headquarters to tiny toes on footsies.

7. When process complete, :lol: returned to warm apartment and commenced conducting experiments with Triple Sec.

 

Twas this, and nothing more. :rip:

 

Does all this clear the fog and raise the shades? :whistling:
