Dedicated to a certain teacher who taught me everything I would ever need to know with computers.

Please review with suggestions on how to amuse 4th-6th graders on a almost nonexistent budget. The kind of budget where you turn to a kid to MC

Rule 5

When you are good, you are good.

(A spin off of the real rule (Don't waste good). )

Mulch and Artemis sat in the Fowl manor study, looking over paperwork. Artemis had figured out how to find the fugitive that he had been chasing. The result had been a car crash, several girly-girls screaming, and the scorching of Mulch's new shoes. They had both agreed to split the paperwork, since Artemis was bored enough to help Myles with his painting. Mulch was slightly disturbed. He had been here twenty minutes, and Artemis had already burned through half a notebook. He kept looking up, until he just had to ask.

"Ok. That's freaky. How are you doing that?"

Artemis looked up. "Doing what?"

"Burning through those papers so fast. That's seriously freaky. That's not natural."

Artemis shrugged. "Come here."

Mulch came over obligingly. "What?"

Artemis then showed his the secret to getting paperwork done so fast. You don't sign under anything that described cash until later, sign your name under anything involving health, and at the bottom of every paper. Under the accident report, give five sentences telling how it happened, three proclaiming your innocence, even if you weren't being accused of something, and two giving completely irrelevant details. en go back and read all the fine print and sign where you need to. Fool-proof. *

Mulch looked up in awe. "How many times have you had to do this?"

Artemis smiled smugly. "When you are good, you are good." He decided not to mention how many times he had to fill out paperwork when Butler had been teaching him how to drive. To be honest, if you don't want to be squished, don't drive in a buggy.

Mulch sighed. He needed to memorize the rest of those rules.

Juliet chased Holly through the house. She really wanted her IPod back. She noticed a rustle up in the chandelier and backed off. She pretended to go back the other way, but doubled back and hid in the bedroom. Holly waited a few minutes, then jumped of the low chandelier. Juliet pounced and pinned Holly against the wall. Holly grinned and slipped out underneath her. Come on, five more seconds. she darted through he door, then jumped in the bushes. Just as the sprinkler system came on. Holly chuckled, and looked for the poncho that Artemis was supposed to leave her, She found it, along with a small scrap of paper. Don't forget Rule Five, Short.

…..
