Office Drama Continues!

so. i've been away for the summer.

now, I'm back at the good ol' day job.

it's just great to be back.

behind a desk.

just great.

super.

loving it.

(long pause)

but, anyway, it is interesting to come back to the familiar and catch up on all the good office drama. the things that have been going on here...well, things are always pretty crazy in the offices of a not-for-proit theatre company.

you thought it was bad before (CLICK HERE to go BACK TO BEFORE), but now things are just...well, they're out of control!!!



Frodo is now riding Sebastian LaRonte...whom you may recognize from his role as the Shark in JAW 3-D (also starring Dennis Quaid and Lea Thompson).

Frodo has his magical little sword all poised and ready for the kill...

but Frodo also has a little secret...



he has kidnapped Charlie Brown.

now seriously, this makes me kinda sad. especially because today on my Peanuts day-to-day calendar, Lucy once again pulled the football away just before Charlie Brown kicked it.

now little CB is in a hobbit's napsack riding atop killer shark.

fucking hobbits.

but who knows if little Frodo really has the upper hand here. Sebastian LaRonte has his own little secret...



yes. psychotic LOST fanatics. Sebastian LaRonte is 100% DHARMA shark.

[NOTE: if you are not a fan o' LOST - a full, yet humorous explanation of the dharma shark phenomenon can be found HERE. trust me, this is not worth reading. but you'll be so glad you did.]

moving on...



Snoopy (aka The Red Baron) is doing his best to outrun LaRonte on his sturdy water-durable tractor...but he seems to be heading right towards the infamous square-shaped forcefield that once held Babe the pig and has now managed to inveigle Buffy.



[NOTE: "Inveigle" is a word i just learned. it means "to entice, lure, or ensnare by flattery or artful talk or inducements."]

clever forcefield.

Buffy is looking mighty Keanu in her attempts to escape. But once again, her little wooden dagger is doing her no good.



Buffy has not yet learned that forcefield does not equal vampire.

and to make matters worse...Bigfoot is shakin' up that forcefield...which (note to psychotic LOST fanatics, seems to be mysteriously linked to the Hanso foundation.)



but the Hanso foundation's mysterious square-shaped forcefield looks like it is about to take a hit, as Spiderman prolapses down from above!



[NOTE: "Prolapse" is a word i just learned. it means "The falling down or slipping out of place of an organ or part, such as the uterus."]



the Iron Giant is still suffering shrinkage, as a result of his bold attempt to free Babe the Pig from the Hanso forcefield, but has now grabbed on to Spidey in a heroic attempt to save him from meeting a similar fate.

and, yes...that is Babe the Pig high above. Making a quick escape on Yzma's cart.

you may remember Yzma, the character voiced by Eartha Kitt, in the llama-filled Disney animated adventure, The Emperor's New Groove:



but while Babe may think he is heading into a future of tranquility -- a haven of file cabinets and flourescent lights -- he is acutally heading right towards...




...A LITTLE BLUE ALIEN!!


in keeping with tradition, i now bring you a wide shot of the complete action:



and now a Spielbergian re-cap:
















god, it's rough being back at the day job.
