~~In the morning I am hyper. In the morning I channel surf. This is the sad result of cheesecake for breakfast and the public access cable~~




Ron looked into the fireplace and then glancing back at Harry,"Are you sure?"

"'Course I am!"he said,"I've always wanted to do this."

"Harry, sharks are dangerous animals,"Hermione added.

"Well, thats the whole point, isn't it?"

"If you say so,"Hermione said,"But dont say I didn't warn you."

"You know you could end up in the middle of the ocean, or a fireplace in atlantis, or in the middle of space."

"Yeah, Rons right, Harry. Sharks dont even have fireplaces, wherever you come out is bound to be non- shark infested anyway. You'd never get where your hoping to by floo!"

"I will so, just you watch,"Said Harry steping into the green flames

"We're coming too,"Hermione yelled steping in too.

"Yeah,"Ron said and joined them.

"SHARK!"Harry bellowed the soot getting inhaled into his lungs.

They began to spin fast bumping hazardously into eachother. It was more longer and painfuller than any of the other floo rides any of them had ever taken before. It seemed to last forever, but then they all landed hard on a green stone hearth.

"Uggg!"Harry groaned as he proped himself up on his elbows to look around.

It wasn't the ocean. It wasn't shark infested water. It wasn't even in he same country, Harry noted form looking out the window and seeing a spangled banner hanging on a pole outside.

"Its the American flag!"Hermione screeched in an agitated voice,"Harry, you great prat! You landed us across the ocean!"

Ron began to look around,"Nice place they've got here, anyhow, but it looks as if no ones home."

"Yeah, we should get out of here,"Hermione said rubbing her bruised elbow.

"Wait! Whats that sound?"Harry whispered. They all stopped to listen carefully ot the slight humming coming from the living room. They got up to investigate and found that the TV was left on. It was playing the Cable Access channel, #21 Ohio, the advertizement said.

"Oh! So thats what these things do! They're really not that bad, like a photo in our world exept with a reason. Dad'll be pleased to know that, he has at least seven in the garage."

"You mean to say you've never seen a TV before?"

"Never knew what it was before is all."

"Hold it, a shows coming on!"Harry said as the screen went blank and some country western music started to play. Soon there was a picture of a old lady, and the screen went on to say that these were clogging lessons.

"Oh, dance lessons, like I could really use this,"Hermione said sarcasticly,"'Comon you guys, lets go."

"No, I wanna see it!"Ron said grabbing her arm as she began to turn away.

"Me too, looks funny,"Harry added.

"Fine,"she said and sat down on the floor.

"Now I'm a gonna show you what you'll be a doin' today,"Said the old lady in a country hick accent.

Music began to play, a sort of country style normal people don't like, but Ron began to tap his feet and bob his head to the beat.

"Ron, are you likeing this?"

"So what if I am?"

Hermione rolled her eyes and reverted them back to the screen where a rather funky looking dance was going on. The lady had another senior friend up on the crude wooden platform with her, they were both wearing dark green skirts and T-shirts with the show's name on them.

The music stopped and the first lady began to talk again."Now first move is a fancy double, heres how to do it..."she said and begn to do a complicated looking step slowly, counting by eights as she went.

"I can do that,"Ron exlaimed standing up. And sure enough he could.

Harry began to laugh histericly at the sight. Ron tap dancing on the white carpet of a strangers living room, and actually doing it right. His long legs would fly in and out and around, touching the ground the exact instant as the lady.

So, it continued, Ron learning all the steps precicely, and Harry and Hermone laughing like nutters, untill the end of the thirty minutes when the lady anounced that is was time to put the whole show together. She turned the country hilbilly music back on and she and her friend (and Ron at the house too) began to dance in step perfectly.

In the middle of the song Hermione stopped laughing just enough to hear the garage door going up,"Harry, they're home!"

"'Comon Ron! We Have got to get tout of here!"said Harry, dragging Ron, still clogging, back to the fireplace.

"No!"Ron cried,"I can't remember now! Was it step, double fancy, stomp, weave, toe? Or stomp, double step, double fancy, weave, stomp?"

He pulled some floo powder from his pocket and they all got in together, shouted,"THE BURROW!" and dissapeared just in time. Leaving a teenaged girl and her mother to wonder what was with the black soot butt mark on the clean white floor, the footprints, and some very strange looking scuffmarks.
