Doctor's Log

September 15, 2004

We forced them to watch more movies today. But General Hawk said no more. He thought we were being too extreme, especially after I had Bazooka and Deep Six come and sing songs for them. They've got to have the worst singing voices I've ever heard. Some of the movies they watched today included some movie called Mystic Pizza, a Sailor Moon movie, and some really bad C movies.

After we finally turned off the movies and untied them, they were quiet for a very long time. Low Light bolted from the room as soon as he was loose. I didn't see him for the rest of the day. The only time the other three did anything remotely bad today was to hum the Darth Vader theme when Cover Girl walked into the infirmary.

We still weren't without any kind of excitement today though. Scarlett had decided that she and Snake Eyes were going to go car hunting. As a result, he tried to hide out in the infirmary for a while. But even a ninja couldn't hold out against her. She stalked in and threw some civilian clothes and him and "told" him to change. I never knew Snake Eyes could sulk like that. Beach Head and Gung Ho were making whipping motions when he was led out of the room. (She had a hand on his arm to make sure he wouldn't escape.)

Gung Ho resumed work on Gung Ho's Guide to Self Enlightenment. He added a part on how you should never piss of your doctor, even if he is a Pacifist. Then he added a part saying that I was a sneaky, conniving bastard. The Marine tried to tell me that it was a compliment. Yeah, right.

Dusty, for his part, decided to read the rest of the day. He had a nice little collection of Far Side comics that he shared with the other two. I noticed that he was also reading a Harry Potter book, but he tried to hide it whenever he saw me looking at him.

As for Beach Head, well, he was a bit lost today. He didn't know what to do to keep himself occupied. The Ranger played solitare for a while, then read some autobiography of General Patton. After that, he looked at Dusty's Far Side comics and decided to try his hand at cartooning. I didn't look at them, but I'm sure they're very frightening.

I spoke with General Hawk about Beach Head and Gung Ho. He's considering giving them leave in a week or two. Thank God.
