Kaibosh: I'm not pulling any strings here, Phullup. Though I'm sure you won't believe that. Phullup: I believe I am beginning to feel a bit tugged. I believe I am beginning to feel a tad strung out. Kaibosh: Have you participated in this conference in the months before this Kerfuffle arose? Phullup: I was... Kaibosh: Don't bother to answer. Phullup silently thinks to himself, "I'm sensing a communication disconnect here." Moulin Rouge is beginning to feel broken-hearted again. Kaibosh: Nothing has been overruled. Moulon Rouge observes the Null Set has now been cast aside. Kaibosh: I don't believe anything was changed. Phullup silently thinks to himself, "I don't believe anything has changed yet, either, except how I feel about things not changing for the better." Krustie: I think all viewpoints have been heard and considered. Phullup silently thinks to himself, "I am able to recognize some unexpressed viewpoints that have not yet been given consideration." Phullup: I am beginning to feel increasingly disrespected, silenced, discredited and resentful. I am beginning to accumulate feelings of injustice. Moulin Rouge wonders who gets the credit for that change in Phullup's feelings. Krustie: This topic is now being frozen. Phullup notices a chill. Moulin Rouge wonders if we are back in Narnia again. The Ice Queen of Narnia offers everyone a Turkey Delight. Moulin Rouge offers the Ice Queen some Salted Peanuts and Purple Grapes of Wrath in return. CopyLeft 1999 By The Lost Canon Collection
