PART Twenty-one OF 15 PRINCIPIA ENTROPIUS ____________________________________ --One fine day, the King of Fance, The Holy Roman Emperor, King Baudoin III of Jerusalem, and the Grand Masters of the Templars and the Hospitallers all decided to lay seige to Ascalon. They set together: King, Court, Patriarch,Priests carrying Crosses and banners, and the archbishops of Tyre,Nazareth, Caesarea. It was like a big Party.orriflames and standards flying, tents pitched around the enemy city, drums beating. Ascalon was defended by one hundred and Fifty Towers, and the inhabitants had long since been preparing for seige: All the houses had slits in the walls, They were like fortresses within fortresses. The Templars were smart fighters, they should have known This was going to be tough, but no...everyone got excited, and they built battering rams, and wooden towers. They had Catapults firing under the cover of The wooden Sheildwalls they erected. The Asconalites tried to burn their Towers, but the wind was against them, and they accidentally burned their own walls instead. It was in one place in the walls, that a breach was made, and the attackers charged the city. Then a strange thing Happened, the Grand Templar, had a cordon set up, that only his men could enter the City. Cynics say he was trying to make sure the templars would get all of the Booty.A kinder explanation is that he feared a trap, and wanted to send his own brave men in first. Either way, he wasn't the brightest of Commanders. Forty Templars ran full steam straight through the city, came to a screeching halt in a great cloud of dust, when they reached a wall on the other side, looked at one another and wondered what they hell they were doing there. Then they about faced and ran past the Saracens, who pelted them with rocks and darts, slaughtering alot of them, Grand Master included. Then they closed the breach, hung the corpses from the Walls, and jeered at the Christians, with obscene gestures and horrid laughter. It is beleived from these Violent Exchanges, the Concept of Tom and Jerry was begat. ------------------------------------------------------- INSANITY FEST CANCELLED ON ACCOUNT OF LARD AND PARASITES.

Cummings, (mrs.) $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ From: Flog Sonata To: Altar Ego Fundamental Truth: It's expensive to be st00pid. Lose my sense of humour? Never! It's a code that will stay with me until the day I die, handed down to me by buddhist monks from the castle wall of the great and wonderous Tibikikaka shrine. "Take this, young Flog!" they yelled, as battle roared around us. I took the tablets with the sense of humour code and rode off in to the woods on my mighty steed. There, I paused by a brook, and read the code, digested it. I did more than memorize it: I found the inner meaning of it and fused it with my mind and soul. Then, I wanked off. Or maybe I just wanked off to the good bits of humour code. There was this one page from "Monk Monthly" that was taped to the underside of one of the tablets. Miss February 1888 was a damn sight sexier than the god damned codes of humour. Come to think of it, the codes of humour were pretty damn dull, and I chucked 'em into the brook and made Miss Feb part of my soul. Oh well. I'm sure it was as profound an experience as those boring codes of humour would have been, had I taken the time to read 'em. ((((((((((((AVAILABLE IN NO SOUND))))))))))))) Where available Cowardism: Can you call yourself a Coward simply because the courage of others seems to you out of proportion to the triviality of the occaison? Thus wisdom creates Cowards. And thus you miss the oppurtunity while spending your life on the look out for it. You have to seize the oppurtunity instinctively, without knowing at the time that it is the oppurtunity. But suppose you passed up the Oppurtunity, because you felt it was inadequate? -------------------------f---n----o------r-----d--------------
