Da Bar

Nomad mutters some sacred elf and Ent words and the bar becomes eery just for Halloween.

Oooh Spooky! Merle how about a round of Sammies with dry ice pouring out? And go light on the spiders, please.

We now return to our regular snoring crowd of wizards, warlocks, witches and all around weirdly cool people!

Merle shook his head at the lack of business. No tips. He sighed. What was wrong? Hey, this was football season, and that usually meant big crowds, booze and snacks, and big tips. What was wrong?

Merle looked around Da Bar, and noticed no TV. Hmmm.

Merle walked over to the table where Nommy and Ran were happily snoozing, and Crash was grumbling about students who couldn't pass an exam when you gave them the questions. He sat down a tray of drinks, and cleared his throat. Loudly.

Crash looked annoyed, and Ran and Nommy looked grumpy/sleepy. "He, we got ESPN. Did you know?" Merle jerked a thumb at the giant plazma screen TV set, with Surround Sound.

Nommy looked at Merle suspiciously. "Hey, that wasn't there just a while ago. Did you do some conjuring?"

Merle looked aghast. "Me???? Conjur?? Scandalous! Good heavens!" Merle scurried back the the storeroom for some chicken wings and buffalo sauce.

Nomad opens one eye then the other qyuickly when the wafting of the Buffalo sauce poured through his nostils.

Man, thats enough to clear up the ole sinuses!

Nomad take a few wings and som blue cheese dressing to dip and looks at the TV... Damn commercials...So...what team are we watching?

"I have a right to grumble." Holding up the practice exam PC sighs "The questions are right here. See right here. I mean, how much easier can I make it for them? But no, they all have to go and flunk the damn thing any way."

Ran wakes to the blaring TV and changes the channel. Sorry, Tuesdays are "Haunted Tuesdays" on the Travel Channel. Can't miss that. Ahhhh...... I will take some Buffalo wings though.

Aside to Ran: Hey, I'm learning to love the Travel Channel too!

Merle turns to Nommy: "It's Wednesday night. Time for Amazing Race! OK, here's the betting line....."

"What are we betting on? Who makes the dumbest mistake this time? Who knows what the word walk means? Hell, these guys could be in my class....."

PC orders a Sam Adams and a pile of potatoe skins.

"For the record I did not laugh when it cam eout that Quayle could not spell, that would be hypocritical. I did laugh when I saw the picture of President Bush reading a book to a group of school children and the book was upside down."

Hey Prof, did you mean to spell "potatoe" Dan Quayle style on purpose since you invoked his name? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
