CASE #4: PROFESSOR BRIEFS


Professor Briefs grumbled, turning over in bed and clutched his pillow.

"Ugh, ugh!" the room was filled with the grunts of all the cave men as professor Briefs walked to the front of the room, carrying with pride the wheel he'd invented.


"Attention! May I have your attention please?" he announced across the room. There was no response. "Uh...Quiet!" he called.


All voices stopped and looked at him.


Professor Briefs cleared his throat. "Now let's see...what is it I was gonna say? Oh yes! I have invented something that will greatly improve our society! We will be able to carry larger loads, transport ourselves, and travel with ease using it. May I present to you...the wheel!" he held up the invention for all to see.


The only sound was a few crickets chirping. All eyes were wide. Then the cave men began looking at each other and whispering. When they looked back they were all scowling.


Professor Briefs' eyes widened, surprised. He hid behind the wheel as rotten tomatos were tossed at him. "Wait! The invention is USEFUL! I SWEAR!"


"Ugh, ugh...get him!" one of the cave-men pointed.


"No, don't!" Professor Briefs backed away and started running as the group began chasing after him.


"Ooga, ooga, pizza tray!" one of them called with excitement.


The group turned and stared for a moment, then started cheering.


"Pizza tray? No, no, it's a wheel! We make three of them and then we can travel and carry heavy loads...," Professor Briefs argued.


Everyone looked at him blankly. Then one of them came out carrying the wheel, a pizza on top of it. "Pizza wheel!" he shouted happily.


"Ooga, ooga, yeah!!" everyone cheered.

"No...no pizza...no pizza," Professor Briefs shook his head.


"Wake up, dear, you're talking in your sleep again," Mrs. Briefs smacked her husband, then turned on her side, away from him.


Professor Briefs grumbled and went back to sleep.

I know this is a short one and not one of the better ones, which is why if you stay turned I'll have MARRON up in an hour or two. Hers will be a little longer and THEN, we have GOTEN, who will be about the length of Goku. I've got them all planned out and ordered so that you get short, medium, long for awhile (except I have more short than medium and more medium than long, so...it'll work out for a little while...) But keep reading! Some will be funnier than others. (I hope...) And I'll continue giving you the next two at a time at the end of each story.

Thanks for all the great reviews everyone! Humor isn't my primary genre, but I basically just write whatever ideas come to me, so...here's a series of HUMOR!
