Emergency Alert! Emergency Alert!
I think my life might be in real danger.

You see I was walking down this ally and found these sunglasses behind a dumpster. I thought, “Cool! Free shades!”. So I put them on and went about my day. Then I began noticing something about the people I saw while wearing them. While some people looked perfectly normal some looked gruesome and scary. I would take my glasses off when I’d see these ghastly forms and they looked absolutely normal. I put the glasses back on and they became repulsive again. It seems that nearly half the population I came across with the glasses on appeared in their true forms….they were republicans!

How could this be? How can so many republicans be hiding among us!? How could we not know!? On top of this I began noticing that all the street signs, billboards and other advertisements actually appeared in plain black and white and said things like, “Greed is good!”, “Poor people are poor because they chose to be poor!”, “Homosexuality is bad!”, “Big business is your friend!“, and “Abortion is evil!!”. I couldn’t believe it! Our minds have been poisoned without us even knowing it!

Sense that time I have been seeing thugs in black suits, dark glasses and ear pieces in their ears. They follow me everywhere. I think they know I know. I have also uncovered the source for their masking abilities. There is a large satellite dish high atop the E.I.B. building that house’s Rush Limbaugh’s Institute for Conservative Learning. I MUST make my way to the top of the tower and disable the dish’s signal in order to stop this charade and reveal these evil creatures for what they truly are!

If I do not make it back please we aware of the situation and carry on the resistance to the end. I have also contacted Marvin Garden at his base on the moon and left instructions for him to destroy the earth with his “laser” in the event I fail.

Keep the faith and wish me luck!

This sounds like a cross between The Matrix and a movie by the title of the thread, staring none other that Rowdy Roddy Piper.

Yikes!

I think Nigal must have already exceeded his daily allotment of beer.

I don't know, these things just come to me. I was going to make it a liberal slam and put the dish on Barbara Stisand's house but thought I'd make fun of my own political views in stead.

maybe I should post some of my Guy Nuar Hiking Detective stories?

Actually it's Noir (acording to the web site). French huh? No wonder all his cases go haywire.

I prefer Inspector Clousseau, especially if a "bimm" is about to explode.

Actually, it's an adjective and can be noire or noir.

In Saturday's episode, he was in a place where some nut-jobs were pitching a fit about everything 'foreign' ("it's soooo unamerican, you know") and had to call himself 'Guy Smith'.
