I love to post this great piece from Cy Amundson
from time to time.
He’s a top notch story teller, one of the best, no punch
lines emanating from this guy, all tall tales.
Some nice visuals in this one…

Marvin the Paranoid Android…

Marvin Saves the Day
A Douglas Adams classic.
Taken from the radio plays, and the BBC Television
series that aired in the late 70’s, a superb story with
loads of imagination and enough interest to satisfy
the most cynical of Sci-Fi buffs.
A little background here, The gang is in a bit of a fix.
The Vogons are looking for blood, the only thing that
stands between them is Marvin and the Point of View gun.
A fiendish weapon that when aimed and fired makes the
recipient take on the present mindset of the shooter!
A manically depressed android versus a race of cranky
conquerors, gotta love the result…
Or Worse!

The Mermaid Song
Sung by the man who wrote the piece.
The late, great Shel Silverstein with a tune about
which aquatic fantasy to pursue, and why.
He just can’t make up his mind…
Oooh, I’d Be Great at That!

The Gateway to Better Things
Andy Hendrickson with a look at improving oneself.
I stopped doing that when it started to hurt.
That was a while back…
Pauses Briefly Only to Fill the Pantaloons…

Zorak’s Nugget of Joy: From a Baby
Space Ghost’s insect pal with a rant about diaper fillers.
We were all babies at one time.
Some of us grew out of it…
Ohh, I Am So With You!
