        Greenwood (on this trip consisting of: Mehve, The Diva, Psycho
        Weasel, Matt^2, and Stefanopolis) and I took over three rooms
        at a cheap-ass hotel smack dab in the middle of touristy Orlando.
        Dan Marino had a bar and grill nearby. That's all I needed. 
        We all began to relax, but then quickly unrelax when it was
        duly noted by Psycho Weasel that the Doom-mobile was still running
        despite the fact that nobody was in it. Was the Invisible Woman
        using her sexy power to waste my car's battery and petroleum
        reserves? Did she set up some kind of retarded invisible force
        field to block our entry to the vehicle in the hopes of making
        me even more insane than I was that time I sat in vanilla pudding
        for an entire afternoon?! Actually, it turned out that some jackhole
        (all of Greenwood pointed to me, but I blame a loveless God)
        just locked the doors before turning the darn vehicle off. We
        all joked about putting a banana in the tailpipe in order to
        shut the car down, just like Axel Foley in Beverly Hills Cop
        I and III. We laughed at that for a while until we
        realized that Kevin Smith had already made better jokes about
        bananas in tailpipes and Judge Reinhold in his Clerks
        TV show. Then we just felt stupid. 
        Anyway, that whole "locked outside the car" incident
        is why I always keep a spare tire-iron in my suitcase. I broke
        every window in, and then turned everything off and ripped out
        the stereo so that I could file an insurance claim that my car
        was burglarized and my $6,000 collection of Pavarotti CDs was
        stolen along with my Van Goghs in the trunk.

              Early on in our trip,
            Team Greenwood and I began running into super heroes at every
            turn. At first it was kinda weird, ya know. I never quite know
            how to act around grown men in spandex who like to put me in
            full-nelsons and bear-holds with their ever-present "super
            bulges" always in some kind of contact with my body. 
            I suppose that
            they were all out on a call-to-arms about the Doom-mobile in
            the area. They kept questioning me in particular because of my
            rugged ninja shirt. I found this rather odd at first, but later
            I found out the secret truth about ninja shirts and Von Doom's
            hideous past!... But that can wait. Right now I want to talk
            about Captain America (the fifth "hero" to question
            me that day). Honestly, I think he was on a Catholic priest-like
            kick. First there was that whole pubescent boy/man-in-training
            thing back in the 40s (Bucky, we shall never forget ye), and
            now he goes around feeling whatever tight ass he wants to claiming
            that it's his "right as the symbol of all things starry
            and stripey." That wouldn't really bother me so much by
            itself, but he just grabbed way too hard! I still have
            his handmarks on my rump! Not even Hitler or Stalin would hold
            on that tight.  |
