Crisis of Competence
A new crisis was upon us now that the world’s supply of reason had been utterly spent. And there was only one man brilliant enough to save us. I arrived in Doctor Manfred’s office to discuss the issue, only to find him kneeling on a desk chair, careening through the office like madman. An assistant was standing in the center of the room, spanking the doctor with a duck whenever he chanced to pass by.
“Doctor!” I cried. “What do we do? What do we do?”
“You idiot!” he yelled. “Can’t you see we’re trying everything we can think of?”

I can say without a doubt that I have never before read the phrase "spanking [...] with a duck". That alone is precious.
I never could get the hang of Thursdays.

Agreed. My pineal gland (not nearly as dirty as it sounds ... it's in the brain) throbs appreciatively.Farseeker wrote:I can say without a doubt that I have never before read the phrase "spanking [...] with a duck". That alone is precious.
Re: Crisis of Competence
May duckspanking come to mind whenever you are at wits end.
Never judge anyone until you have biopsied their brain.

Re: Crisis of Competence
Come now. We've all been duck spanking before. It's a perfectly natural behavior that we all experience as a part of growing up. Particularly if you live close to ponds.

When I wrote it, I loved it.
About a day after I'd posted it here? I hated it.
Then I heard the dribble and I loved it again. Thanks Tbaker!

It was remarkably hard to find a good duck quack. I still didn't. I wanted the equivalent of cleaning the cat like a rug in Quest for the Holy Grail.
Fun anyway. And remember people, if there are stories you want read, post a link in the Fan Cast thread under "Podcasts".
