A krek j, a review by JrK.
There was, in the near distant future, proposed so by the likes of Bert
Allstein, the proprietor of the Sleeping Dragon, a nice little cottage
south of Easterøgg, a Swødish village, a nest of hurberkerkies. They
were dancing and milling about only to be exploited by the local
giftshop0wnz and together the rabid rabbits formed a band called
'Genetisis'. Only this ended in the near fatal heart disease of
everyone on the planet, of whom we shall now speak of as having
Rebretsikoram, a rare disease that can only be cured by one of the
small vaccuum dirtiers sold by Velinorm/Zwarithingy(ask Joren for
correct spelling).

When you conjugate the verb, Krekkerjeck becomes the Anglo-Saxon Er Krekk Jeck.
Since the Er is pronounced A, and the "ck" are properly silent in true Olde Englische, it is no secret to any British person that the programme once broadcast at 5pm every Friday evening is none other than a krek j itself...

Talking about a spesific, named a krek j is rather difficult, I should say.
The good thing is that each and every one of us is surely amused by the sudden realization of a krek j's existance.
However, i must spoil the fun. A Krek j is actually Muffy's second name

The truth is, sometimes divided by the coincedence of two empty beerbottles is the same as near closely.
When you carefully watch the three stars slapping each other on the paw with large trouts, you see the essence of a certain british comedygroup, or grouppe, as I like to say.
'we're french, why do you think we have this outrageous accente!'
So, as we say, the sharp of the bear must not be wrestled against in the gaze of a dead horses gift, when the clock cogs at home.

But as far as the beerbottle is concerned, when the beer is hence concatenated, one must contemplate the conamubalutions required for replenishment and reimbursement.
Else one is beerless - a state which is peerless, starless and bible black.
But these dark ruminations are poor reminiscences - rum! Aye! There's the rub!
And remember - the bird in hand is like a red rag to a bull in a china shop, but it's a damn fine alehouse - and I'll take the two in the bush.
...or did I already say that?

The answer is correct with all choices, because "a" works as neutral
ground for the Krek, leaning to yay, where as "j" works as the opposite
, thus the answer of Krek or not, being the true question is rendered
totally neutral, so the answer is correct in all ways.

I do not believe there is anything definite about a krek j - quite the reverse, in fact.
It is a random thing - an indisciplined thing and yet a thing of such order that it may be red and disciplined.
Still, j is right.

I meant, j is still right, of course!
