Don't you folks ever get tired of the toast thing?

I mean there are only so many plots and stuff I can make up
about a maniac Toaster. Its hard trying to think up of new things to say.
Your trying to drive me insane aren't you?

SO.......

They're Coming to Take Me Away
Napoleon the 14th

Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees and begged you
Not to go because I'd go berserk?

WELL,

You left me anyhow and
Then the days got worse and worse
And now you see I've gone completely
out of my mind,

AND

[chorus 1]
They're coming to take me away,
Haha, they're coming to take me away,
Ho ho, hee hee, ha ha,
To the funny farm
Where Life is Beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see
Those Nice Young Men
In their Clean White Coats
And they're coming to take me AWAY,
HA HAAAAA

You thought it was a joke,
and so you LAUGHED, YOU LAUGHED
When I had said that losing you
Would make me flip my lid,

RIGHT?

You know you laughed.
I HEARD you laugh, you laughed
And laughed and laughed
And then you left,
And now you see I'm Utterly Mad

AND

[chorus 2]
They're coming to take me away,
Haha, they're coming to take me away,
Ho ho, hee hee, ha ha,
To the Happy Home with Trees and Flowers
And Chirping Birds and basket weavers
Who sit and smile and
Twiddle their thumbs and toes
And they're coming to Take me Away,
HAHAAAAAAAAA

I cooked your food,
I cleaned your house,
And this is how you pay me back
For all my kind unselfish loving deeds

RIGHT?

Well, you just wait,
They'll get you yet,
And when they do, they'll put you in
the ASPCA, you mangy MUTT,

AND

(chorus 1)
(chorus 2)
(chorus 1 trailing into mumbles in the distance)


Thats how I feel.

HO HO HE HE HA HA!!!!

I always really liked the toast... if the guy who runs it is sick of
it... why not pass it on to someone else? (It may lose some... flavour
[sorry!] but why not try it? and I'm /not/ volunteering....) :)

Ok, let's use the talky thing as a catalyst for bringing back MONICA :-)

Waitaminute.....

Imagine that Leon Meyers, long locked away on a work-release program
working for Omega Industries, rescued MONICA during her May attack,
locking her away in Talky, which by virtue of its nature has portions of
AI code, making it easy for her to hide.

Dante in advertantly gave herthe power to emerge, and as someone goes in
via matrix to shut down the toaster, she leaps out and runs away, leaving
everyone wondering what the hell that was about. Two weeks later, people
start reporting seeing something weird. MONICA is back. *cue evil music*

I had long=planned to use MONICA as a super-villian. Like any comic
villian, just when you think you've killed them, they escape to come back
later with another plan to take over the world.

Also, please don't kill talky, he's too kool. :-)

About this MONICA thing, I a couple of comments... you guys barely defeated her
a year ago... how do you intend to get rid of her this time? Is she gonna be
weaker? All right, maybe she won't be at the level she was when she was
beaten, but she's not gonna be anything spectacular (until she gets a foothold
and has a couple weeks to grow...).

How is she gonna take over the net this year? Can't repeat the same plot...
we'd already know how to beat it...

Ah well.... we'll see what transpires...

oh, and a quick comment from a friend of mine...

What are we doing today, Monica?
Same thing we do every day, Pinky. Try and take over the world.

Are you pondering what I'm pondering?
I think so, but C13 gives me such a rash...

I intend to play MONICA up as a little weaker than she was the last two
times. She'll have a plan for world domination, and then get thwarted,
to go back into hiding for a while longer.

I need a plan. MONICA would come up with something that will bring
humanity to its knees so she can take over.

------------------

LEON: Gee MONICA, what do you wanna do tonight?
MONICA: Same thing we do every night, try to take over the world!
