Doctor's Log
August 31, 2004
I still can't believe Spirit's helping them. I think Low Light and Gung How are even considering bringing Mainframe into this. Beach Head's ready to kill them all. Leatherneck came into to consult with the other two. I guess Cover Girl sent him a message back. He had printed it out and the three of them were reading it intently while trying to figure out how to reply. They even showed it to me for advice. It said something like this.
Dear Who ever the hell you are,
Who is this? Is this Clutch or Shipwreck? I thought I told you never to email me. My email's supposed to be blocking you. And by the way, if you
sweet talk me, don't use Shakespeare. I'm not much into the whole Romeo and Juliet thing.
Cover Girl
Leatherneck put Shakespeare quotes in the email? He had to have done some research for that. The only problem with that though is that Beach Head wouldn't write like that even if Hell froze over. An irate Beach Head tried vainly to get the piece of paper to see what damage they'd done to him. The three Joes put their heads together to write a reply, then Leatherneck ran off to find Spirit to get his input. Why is Spirit helping them?
Speaking of Cover Girl, she did drop by today. Before Beach Head could say anything, Low Light ran over and smothered his mouth with a pillow. Courtney gave them a strange look as she was trying to talk to me. The reason she had come by was because she and Lady Jaye had picked out a "Joe friendly" movie, or as she called it, a "kid friendly" movie. I'll give you a guess, the main character is a big, green, smelly Ogre.
During our conversation, she told me that when she left her place this morning, her front door had horse pictographs taped on it. (Being suspicious, I went on the Internet later and found that the horse is a symbol of love and devotion in most Native American folklore.) She'd also found a small, strange leather bag in her Mauler that was filled with smooth stones and herbs. I guess Courtney had showed it to Spirit later, but he conveniently had to be somewhere else, so he couldn' t answer any question.
After she'd left, Beach Head, Gung Ho, and Low Light called a brief truce while they watched Shrek. This distraction has worked beautifully. They're watching it for the third time already. I think it's in the gladiatorial fight scene because I'm hearing cheers of "Kick his ass!" I also noticed Low Light and Gung Ho paying special attention to the romance in the movie. Oh well…maybe this will occupy them the rest of the day.
