Hello, all. As I write this, it is the only thing going into the
|
|
newsletter. I have received *nothing else*. If I'm going to keep this
|
|
thing coming out, I need contributions! Send interesting news, fiction,
|
|
anything! I've heard some GREAT ideas from some of you, but they don't
|
|
do me or any other m00ses any good unless you write them up and send them
|
|
to me!
|
|
Which brings me to the next topic. I've asked Sabre to stop forwarding
|
|
M00se Droppings to CSBB.M00se, mainly to ease up the load on BITNET that
|
|
must occur everytime M00se Droppings gets shot out of there (over 60 rather
|
|
large documents....) We DO want to keep using it, though! So here's what
|
|
it's for, at least in my opinion. Let's use, as an example, the plea we
|
|
had from a person suffering tuition overload, last issue (or was it the
|
|
issue before?) The initial document would go through m00se droppings, where
|
|
everyone can read it. Any discussion that follows, however, should take
|
|
place on csbb.M00se. This way, once a topic is started rolling in M00se
|
|
Droppings, it can continue at a much faster rate on CSBB.M00se.
|
|
As another example, there is an *extremely* m00sey idea in the works
|
|
at our Maine thr0ng. They are (supposedly!) going to write up a proposal
|
|
and send it to me, and I will include it in M00se Droppings. But we don't
|
|
want to wait for the next issue to come out to see what kind of thoughts
|
|
people have about this idea, so we would discuss it on CSBB.M00se. Perhaps
|
|
the final version would reappear in M00se Droppings, but all the modification
|
|
should be done on CSBB.M00se.
|
|
|
|
Well, it's now been several days, and I've received two items.
|
|
So here comes issue 7......

None this time, I'm afraid. Except in reference to Camp Relay II.
|
|
I discovered, to my bewilderment, that Kamikaze did not, in fact, name it
|
|
Camp Relay II: The Quest for M00se. *I* didn't make it up. I don't know
|
|
who did. But in any case, that wasn't the official name, it was Camp Relay
|
|
II only. There were, however, lots of m00ses there, and we had fun. Perhaps
|
|
someone will write up a report? (Hint, hint)

THE ADVENTURES OF A FORD ESCORT..(Or driving with a crazy m00se)..
|
|
..(Or The Three wheel drive Ford escort)
|
|
|
|
The day was the day before this, Sunday August the 14th.
|
|
The Subject a blue Ford Escort..name unknown.
|
|
The driver a Stacey (Starfire?) strange name..
|
|
The passengers two obviously mentally unbalanced people..
|
|
calling themselves Sindex and Hobgoblin.
|
|
|
|
Hi! there, folks! M00selock Holmes here with a report on the strange goings on
|
|
of fellow m00ses..
|
|
|
|
It all started one evening in England when i was seated in my den awaiting the
|
|
famous ...oopps sorry..wrong tale...
|
|
|
|
The day was Sunday the 14th, the time 6:23pm..I was sitting picnicking near a
|
|
local reservoir (very m00se like hangout in the hot weather) when all of the
|
|
sudden i spotted some fellow m00ses out for a sunday drive. A nice day for a
|
|
quiet drive. I sat there drinking my tea in the shade as they tore around a
|
|
corner, careening towards a jogger and some kids (it was close by a half an
|
|
inch) and passed by in a blur.. I jumped up eager to find out where my fellow
|
|
m00se would be heading in such a hurry (spilled my tea too..) and got
|
|
into my truck, an orange Isuzu. The chase was afoot! I spotted them going out
|
|
of the reservoir and up a dirt road...(in a Ford Escort..incredible;
|
|
these americans are such brave people) I mean up! The road went up a hill
|
|
and into a field..The music coming from the car durring all of this was
|
|
varied...from Lost Boys to the infamous Beetlejuice sound track..
|
|
|
|
Well, that was too much..The question was were they trying to confuse the world
|
|
by showing that a ford escort is really an off road vehicle, or was the car a
|
|
transformer?
|
|
|
|
I put my Isuzu in gear and followed as they went straight into the woods..
|
|
The ford escort putted along fine until the road suddenly filled with ruts.
|
|
Well, to make a long story short the silly m00ses got themselves stuck good
|
|
in the middle of the woods in a ford escort. It was up to me to save the day.
|
|
Before i got a chance great clouds of smoke came out of the car..It occured
|
|
to me that they were thinking..egads!.. I heard Sindex mutter something about
|
|
the car being a three wheel drive car and the next thing i knew all was well..
|
|
The ford had transformed into super ford!! Pulling itself outa the ditch it
|
|
lurched forwards back down the road, spilling coolant along the way..(well
|
|
what do you expect from a Ford?).
|
|
|
|
Later i found out the folk had been in search of reservoirs that day to
|
|
do strange water rituals to escape the heat..(under water bl00ping?)
|
|
|
|
They ended their day with a chinese food dinner and a few close run-ins with
|
|
the local police..
|
|
|
|
Well thats all for now..Gota Vam00se..
|
|
|
|
M00selock Holmes......
|
|
|
|
Starfire:"the question is, what is M00selock Holmes smoking in that pipe?",
|
|
"Vanilla beans?" (a weird hallucinagenic substance..)
