Adventure Number Two:
      Some Stuff I Didn't Really Necessarily Understand
      I don't even know what time it was... my eyes were closing involuntarily and I couldn't see straight. (Well, I get the vision thing all the time, so I guess that wasn't really so odd...) At any rate, it didn't matter because I was on another mission.

      While on my journeys I have noticed that for the most part, when people sign it's usually to say something positive about your page like, "THIS IS THE MOST TOTALLY AMAZINGLY AWESOME PAGE I'VE EVER SEEN!!!", (which is funny, cuz you'll see that some of the people who write that stuff write it in like just about every guestbook they sign which means that like every other single page is practically the most great on the whole entire web, which is okay but you see where I'm goin' with it...). *cymoril breathes. Then there are those who believe whole-heartedly that "You ain't seen nothin' till you've seen MY page!" Widely known now as the "Your Page is Good But Not as Good as Mine " Syndrome, (which, by the way, I think they've developed a pill for now), followed by a link to the "greatest site on earth!". Some of them are actually pretty entertaining, and some, well... not so much. This guy has not only the coolest page, but also the best computer and server, which you, my guestbook friends are welcome to use! He wrote:

      Your page is really nice... almost as nice as mine! Come check out my page at: http://httpsrv.ocs.drexel.edu/undergrad/st96p2ha You can use my server that runs off MY OWN computer! I have tons of MB of files on my page! See my GRAPHICS page for cool BRYCE 2 landscapes. You won't believe how real they look. Then check out my TIN FOIL MAN! page, a super hero with my face! And last but not least, you can read a book that I wrote online, The Adventures of Ph! So click the above picture and see the coolest page on the web!

      Personally, I hope he looks like Superman or Mel Gibson...

      Then there are those who don't leave a link to their page, they just post it there in the guestbook! Or, (another of my favorites), one person posted a script in a buncha different books that sent me directly to their page. Only thing is, I couldn't get back to the guestbook so I couldn't figure out which signature it was that sent me flyin'... (Lord knows I tried...) Then it killed my browser. What about my mission?! So I took a break and ate something. (According to Anthony Annoyance; "ketchup is good food. yeah, and cheeze"). But that's not the point! It's the principle of the thing! Sure cuts down on surfin' time though. Heck, I was probably gonna go there anyway.

      I also found numerous entries about monkeys... "Have you seen mine", and "Do you know where I could get a white flying one?". So... are monkeys the house pets of the future? What about the good ol' puppy? What am I gonna tell my cat? (Not that she listens to a word I say...) I have a feeling she won't be pleased, although she does like to chase things... gnats, lint.... but they never bit her back, 'cept my son, but that's another story entirely. Apparently though if you know where to get a magic monkey, there's a huge market for 'em. You might want to look into it.

      All in all, I think Janne Tompuri summed it all up best when she said simply:

      Wheee!

      x's and o's,
      your Guestbook Goddess
