the Continuing Saga Of Rodney's Rodneys (In appreciation of Giles,Giles & Fripp) I posted this game to another forum. A few replies are not my own, but most are. You see , the game didn't take well and there were few "joiners". I hope to do better here. ....... |

| But, as the dreadful and depressing Rodney Rodneys was quick to realize, it had been but a dream as the long,long night before he had fallen asleep reading Ambrose Bierce's short story, Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge. |

| Rodney's depthless, pointless life was swiftly becoming too much a burden when, of a sudden one grey , sun-blotched day, he discovered adult magazines. |

These adult magazines were filled with coupons and deal listings of tasteless furniture from IKEA, his mind could not comprehend why any adult would read these magazines. Rodney began his search for the greatest, yet affordable furniture from that day on. |

| But after a couple of days, he could not resist IKEA and longer. Having skill with tools, he was pleasantly surprised to find the opportunity to build the furniture himself, and got all sorts of great ideas for Swedish prog band names from the IKEA products. |

While building a stool to sit on while playing guitar, because 'tis the only way to play guitar, he stumbled on a small termite. Rodney instantly befriended this termite and pondered on their future lives together. |

Rodney thought that it might be a little strange that his only friend was a termite, but he didn't care. He named the termite Cygnus, because he had heard that word somewhere in a prog song before. |

"We shall make a pwog concept lp on the theme of furniture!", exclaimed the (oddly) exhuberant Rodney to his new friend whom he had named Gregor Samsa-Cygnus. Samsa-Cygnus made a small moue of disapproval to which Rodney responded, " But many a pwog band has extolled furniture in the past- think of Renaissance"Carpet of the Sun",Genesis "Musical Box",Kansas "Lamplight Symphony " & "Closet Chronicles",Hawkwind "Comfy Chair",FM "sofa Back", Procol "TV Ceasar"! |

"Feck the furniture!", the termite shrilled, blowing a mephitic fhart.. "If you had any sack between your legs you would have noticed those magazines contained something of much more interest than raffish furniture coupons." |

| Spunky (Fingers) Nomates ran the seedy "book"store next the community abbatoir and he was casually thumbing thru the coffeetable edition of the Necronomicon (careful not to cut his webbed hand on the razor-sharp page edges) when in walked our lad, Rodney Rodneys. |

| "Good grease-matty-haired,balding Sir! It has just been brought to my understanding the true import of these adult magazines which your emporium doth proffer the public - and I am of mind to purchase more of these piccy books, especially those in which the rubbing of body parts along with exclaimations of "Frabjous Joy!" are made prominent." |

| Spunky merely turned another page , fharted this time with such potency as to rival the concentration of hydrogen sulfide one would expect in Dante's seventh level,and pointed to the "copulation porn" section which was between "cow-udder titter" and "cunning stunts" sections. |

| Spunky rarely spoke on account of all seven shades of speech being beat out of him by repeated violent cycle-bouts of prolonged buggery endured when still a child. |

| But Rodney was momentarily distracted by the sudden appearance of the entire St. Louis Cardinals starting rotation on the street outside the store; apparently having been banished from the MLB for being too good. |

And not even momentarily because to Rodney Rodney's sensibilities sports and sportstalk were for stadia-ized lowclass chaff born of booze, licking lead paint, degrees in spraying supermarket vegetables and contraception that somehow went awry. Our lad Rodney was fully aware that such "humanity" went hand-in-hand with being so azoic on the culture front as to believe in the merits of a Canadian crapband called Rush - also stadia fodder. |

But this has nothing to do with what is still to be: You could say that Rodney had it coming when one day he decided to take his adult magazine to his elementary school, Our Lady Of Prostitutes. |

| Rodney and one Gerald Bostock were the only males in the otherwise all-female (Japanese school girls in strikingly amoral black & white uniform - because that is the way the schoolmistresses desired it.)....err, school. |

There is actually a very similar long-running thread to this still going except each person just posts three words, which is probably why there haven't been many replies on this one. Here's the link if you're interested: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=77702&PID=5127760#5127760" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=77702&PID=5127760#5127760 ------------- https://dreamwindow.bandcamp.com/releases" rel="nofollow - My Music

My thread demands a wee more effort. Is there a problem here? Anyways, to continue: Now you could not in truth maintain that our lad Rodney was a bad-looking bloke http://s151.photobucket.com/user/baggra/media/Bitco/psych/kluczowyklienetidei4vm-570x427_zps53e5eda4.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  but he WAS rather dull and slow in the uptake. The Japanese school girls - in uniform - blushing and giggling in a most delightful covert manner, would meekly taunt him when he passed by , asking him why he always walked with his hands in his long, long pockets. |

But one day Rodney, while listening to "2112" on the radio, had a sudden epiphany, realizing that, hey!, Rush is actually a pretty good band after all! He sold all his adult magazines and used the money to buy Rush's complete discography. Well, we DID say Rodney Rodneys was rather dim. |

Regardless, one morning whilst walking the promenade with his termite on a leash (Gerard de Nerval-with-his-pet-lobster-style) Gregor Samsa-Cygnus caught word of Rodney's immense faux pas and rebuked him so severely that Rodney burned all his Rush filth http://s151.photobucket.com/user/baggra/media/Bitco/psych/butt.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  |

It was down to mischievious Spunky Nomates (paper and pencil) tutelage that Rodney was fed the misleading maxim that Japanese schoolgirls ( unlike all other females altogether) fostered a deep-rooted admiration for all things Pwog, especially bona fida Pwog Mastermen of the first water. Rodney's bone was galvanated into persuading Rodney's brain to learn all it could on the demanding subject. |
