Thanks to my parents and some well meaning friends who think I should be the next American Idol, I am sitting here with the largest group of would-be celebrities ever assembled under one roof!
Welcome to my very own "American Idol Nightmare", friends!!
We were all waiting our turn to show our stuff to the three deadly denizens of doom, Randy, Paula and Simon when suddenly the blond girl standing next to me nearly pulled my arm out of it's socket!
"OMG!!! It’s REALLY HIM!!!" She screamed.
Simon Cowell walked past us, body guards in tow, not sparing us a glance, as he entered the "Torture Chamber" as some of us had renamed the auditioning room.
"A few short years ago no one even knew Simon Cowell existed and the world was a better place" I snapped out loud.
Dozens of angry and incredulous eyes turned on me all at once. The same girl who almost took my arm off scowled at me angrily.
"Do you NOT comprehend the ENORMITY of the situation we are in or are you just as DUMB as you look?" She asked, waiting for an answer. Not wanting to get thrown out for something petty at this stage of the game, I said nothing.
She glared at me another second, then moved away in a huff, settling down in the corner with a book.
I couldn't help but notice the title, "Redneck Martians Stole My baby".
OH BROTHER!!
I got some satisfaction in thinking that if I knew ANYTHING at all about Simon, he would detest her on site!
The crowd was getting more nervous and antsy by the minute, as the time for the auditions to begin grew closer.
Two twins, apparently from Iowa, were practicing their introduction,
"And now.....direct from a Wal-Mart in Iowa..It’s Elroy and Dumont Goober, The Good Old Goober Boys"
A few people within earshot snickered and I wondered whether those were really the poor fellows' names!
An older redhead to my left, who had been rather quiet so far, suddenly asked me "Did you hear that MattBaby and Sunshine have been spotted In Virginia?"
I was about to ask her who the heck MattBaby and Sunshine were, when I heard my name being called.
This was it!! My big chance!!
Randy greeted me pleasantly as soon as I walked in.
“What up Dawg?". Paula asked me what I was going to sing and the next thing I knew I was singing my heart out!
********"The sun will come out tomorrow,bet your bottom
*********dollar that tomorrow........."
Suddenly Randy was holding up his hand for me to stop.
"Sorry Dawg..It’s a no for me"
Paula mumbled something incoherent and Simon looked about to have an apoplectic fit!
"That was HORRIBLE, absolutely GHASTLY!!! The sun may NEVER come out again after that performance!!"
I took that as a "No", thanked them for their time and left the same way I came in. I'm not too upset...after all.....look at what happened to William Hung!!
On my way out I looked for the redhead to find out who MattBaby and Sunshine were but she was nowhere to be found. I guess now I'll never know! See you at the next audition!

Generally Speaking, Dead People Do Not Show Up In The City Transit System. But now they have shown up, and it appears they are somehow involved in this time warp in which I find myself. So, What Up Dawg? Strange that at a time like this that the drop of hip hop in me comes out. Usually I'm a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll, but now nothing is the norm. Weirdness rules. Before all this, I was a calm ordinary mother of a newborn. Even after Redneck Martians Stole My Baby I was able to hold on to a few strands of sanity. Until now, I was recovering as well as could be expected, but I miss him terribly. And Now........Direct From A Walmart In Iowa...... the frighnening flashback of the kidnapping. The flashback is not necessarily a part of this nightmare in which I'm now involved. I've experienced this replay every day since the Walmart incident. Sorry for my rambling, but this situation is happening now. I've gotten distracted by the horror going on around me and that tragic Walmart thing. I'm going to focus now and introduce myself:
I'm the mother of the baby stolen by the Redneck Martians riding on the bus from hell! Welcome To My Nightmare! Unamaginable, scary stuff is taking place at this very moment.
Do You Comprehend The Enormity Of The Situation? A group of droids is now moving to the front of the bus, friends of C3PO, or so they say. C3PO Was Not Gay....He Was British, You Moron, one droid responds to the comment of a homophobic zombie. This is so unreal; I'm so scared. What Up Dawg? You must forgive me, it's only fear that brings out the rap in me. As I said before, I'm a bit Marie and a bit Donnie, but mostly the average American mom, or I was average until the Walmart thing and this thing now. Also I'm a some time actress and hoping for a small role in what could be a very large film. So I'm trying to regain my sanity as much as possible, even in this chaotic atmosphere. At least the screaming of the other passengers has stopped. The blood-curdling screams that seemedto go on forever until the main monster yelled: Shut The....Up or Else! The regular passengers seemed to have chosen the latter four letter word, for the bus was suddenly very quiet, too quiet. This is actually perfect for me, I'll be able to hear if I get a call on my cell. I Am Anxiously Awaiting THE Phone Call. Just so you know, My baby is always on my mind and I've been in contact with the authorities about him. However, The Call I so anxiously await is about the movie part. Oh, Oh, Oh, excuse me. Wish me luck, it's my cell. Hello, yes, this is she. Kevin Costner?! Holy Cow, Buckaroo!! I got it! I got it! I got the part. Wow, am I glad I woke up to hear my cell ring, I was having the strangest dream. Sorry to leave you hanging if you got caught up in my fantasy andwere expecting more narrative, but it was just a dream. I am on a bus, but heading to my yoga class, not to hell. As I look around I see no zombies or monsters aboard. So, I guess this is just the same ordinary ride I take every week to class. Exceptfor your company, it was good having you to talk to, I usually don't talk to strangers. You been so attentive and caring. And I really needed someone to talk to about my baby. Unfortunately his fate was not part of the dream. It is all too true, my baby has been stolen by Martians. When I return from New Orleans where the movie is being shot, I will devote my full attention to finding my baby. I miss him and I am hopeful. The authorities are pursuing a promising lead. They think a woman martian named Sunshine may have him and named him Matt. Please let it be so, I miss my baby so. I am keeping the faith. I've been told that MattBaby And Sunshine Have Been Spotted in Virginia.

NIGHTMARE IN IOWA!!
“Welcome To My Nightmare……….Do come in,” intoned the spooky voice of Harry Hambone, TV host of the Friday Night Nightmare Theater. Tonight’s feature is ‘Redneck Martians Stole My Baby,’ starring Hank Flamingo, Mary Jane Doobie and C3PO. But first, a late-breaking news bulletin…..MattBaby And Sunshine Have Been Spotted in Virginia. News at 10:00 p.m.”
The movie began, “In a galaxy far, far away, Marvin the Martian and Ricky Martian set off on an exploratory trip to Earth seeking women to repopulate their barren planet, Mars……”
“What up Dawg?” asked Charlie as he entered the room. His brother, Donald, answered, “Just watchin’ the Friday Night Nightmare. It’s about this guy that turns his double-wide trailer into a rocket ship to pursue the aliens who stole his girlfriend.”
“Sounds lame, dude!” exclaimed Charlie. “Oh! Look! There’s C3PO!! Did you know he was gay?” Donald scoffed, “C3PO Was NOT Gay.... He Was British, You Moron.” Charlie smirked, “Well, he’s not exactly one of the GEICO cavemen either!!”
Charlie asked, “Say, did you hear about the stiff they found on the cambus this morning?” Donald replied, “No. Generally Speaking, Dead People Do Not Show Up In The City Transit System. Did they identify the body? Charlie joked, “Yes, it was Kevin Costner.” Donald asked excitedly, Kevin Costner?! Holy Cow, Buckaroo!!??” Charlie laughed, “Chill, Dude! I was just messing with you!”
Charlie suggested, “Let’s watch the tape of the Iowa Hawkeyes and Iowa State Cyclones Saturday football game.” …. “OK!” Donald agreed. “I’ll get us some snacks. You start the tape.” Charlie stuck the tape in the player, and heard the announcer say, “And Now, Joan Lakes, Direct From A Wal-Mart In Iowa, Today's Fashion Tips!!” Charlie moaned, “NOOOOO!!!! Mom must have taped over the game!!!” He yelled to his brother, “DUDE--Do You Comprehend the Enormity Of The Situation??? MOM RECORDED OVER THE GAME!! It's my worst nightmare!!”
Donald replied, “Don’t have a cow, Man! Maybe one of the guys has a copy. Matter of fact--Mom is supposed to call tonight. Do you want to talk to her?” Charlie roared incredulously, “Are you kidding!! I Am Anxiously Awaiting THE Phone call from Mommie Dearest! I want to talk to her about recording over THE GAME!!” Donald replied, “Ummmm! I’ll take that as a NO!”

(6) What Up Dawg? What Up Dawg? I’ll tell you what’s up. Trouble, that’s what’s up.
I was afraid something like this could happen. After writing so many award winning stories critical of them, (10) Matt Baby and Sunshine have been spotted in Virginia. I am sure they are looking for me, and they are not happy campers. I am worried they may have already “taken care of” a reporter from a city just south of here who also wrote some stories critical of the way Matt Baby treated Miss Ktty. (9) Generally speaking, dead people do not show up in the city transit system there wearing a shark pin pinned to their chest. That is Sunshine’s calling card as you know, and she has never been one to take criticism of Matt Baby lying down.
(8) Do you comprehend the enormity of the situation? I’ll be lucky to make it until sundown after the negative things I’ve written about him.. This is far worse than the time when I worked for the “Star” and wrote the story about C3P0 being gay. You remember don’t you? That woman came after me with her metal replica of C3P0 trying to bash my brains in while screaming (5) ”C3PO Was NOT Gay.... He Was British, You Moron!!” Oh no, this is far worse.
The odd thing about this is that we usually make those stories up out of our imaginations. You know, stories like (2) .”Redneck Martians Stole My Baby” that I wrote about Michael Jackson. But almost everything I wrote about Matt Baby and Sunshine is true (Hey, who could make up that kind of stuff?). So I told the truth this time (3) and now, direct from a Walmart in Iowa or wherever she’s from, I have that Sunshine trying to track me down.
So anyway (1) welcome to my nightmare. I wouldn’t stay to close to me until we find out exactly where they are. (7) I am anxiously awaiting the phone call from the police telling me they have them in custody but I’m not too hopeful. Matt knows all the right things to say and do (after all he has 20 yrs of scripts to help him). If they are not caught soon, don’t expect to see me tomorrow. That Sunshine is a dead shot with that six-gun and I’m not exactly a fast moving target.

Three friends were stuck on a deserted island. For years and years they live there, until one after the other they gradually seemed with each day that passed to lose their sanity as no help came their way.
"I have found a magic lamp!" yells Tom to the others. He has three years growth of beard on his face and looks like a cave man. He rubs and rubs the piece of rock in his hands and sure enough no genie comes out.
"The genie inside must have died." he says to the others. "But since we know it can only give out 3 wishes, you may each have one. What do you guys want?"
"A phone call." says Larry without a second thought.
"I would like to see Kevin Costner," said Jim the third guy who walked around completely naked. The others still wrapped themselves in tattered clothes.
"Kevin Costner?! Holy Cow, Buckaroo!!" said Larry in delight. "Why didn't I think of that?"
"Welcome to my nightmare!" screamed Tom at them. "Do You Comprehend The Enormity Of The Situation? Hello? We are stranded on an island for three years and now we have a magic wand to get us out of here and you guys are wishing to see Kevin Costner?"
" What Up Dawg?" asked Larry looking surprised, "You don't like Kevin Costner? Don't you go believing all that crap that he was gay and making out with C3PO!"
"C3PO Was NOT Gay.... He Was British, You Moron." said Jim disgustedly.
"Hurry up with that genie Tom, I Am Axiously Awaiting THE Phonecall." urged Larry. As Tom continued rubbing the stone furiously with blistered palms, "SHAZAM!!" a genie suddenly appeared. The rock was actually an old lamp that had become crystallized in stone. The three men shrieked in fear and took to their heels.
"Now what?" says the butt naked genie to himself. "Hey guys, come back and make your wishes!"

THE ONGOING SAGA - Chapter 13
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqvVJXcDbzi1yiaOBfJLBJLty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071111060846AAIDpDc&show=7#profile-info-AA12290185 - Chapter 12
Matt couldn’t get my car started, and called the Mitchell, SD cab company. He was a bit surprised when a cowpoke showed up with another horse in tow. “WELCOME TO MY NIGHTMARE Taxi Company, said the rider. “Our motto is, ‘Use a horse, save the gas.’”
“Get me to a Walmart before they close” I said. “I need a new widget for my motor.” And off we galloped.
Arriving at the store I explained my car problem to the clerk. “Of course”, he said, “you will need the smallest size. I had one of them, but some REDNECK MART-IANS STOLE MY BABY widget. Those clerks think that I don’t keep track of inventory, but I do. I really do. Even now, I AM ANXIOUSLY AWAITING THE PHONECALL which will tell me when I can expect another.”
“DO YOU COMPREHEND THE ENORMITY OF THE SITUATION?” I asked. “I am here in South Dakota, and I need to be on my way to see my wife Peggy before she sues me for divorce.”
At that very moment a brown-shirted UPS man walked in with a package.
“Inter-store delivery” he said.
Opening the package with a flourish, the clerk exclaimed, “AND NOW...DIRECT FROM A WALMART IN IOWA....is a baby widget.”
Purchase made, I got back on my mare, and headed to my stalled car in the cornfield. As we rode, to pass the time we played “6 degrees of Separation from Kevin Bacon”. My cowpoke companion was impressed
when I did Campbell to Kostner in four.
(Wild Things) Neve Campbell to Denise Richards
(The World is Not Enough) Richards to Pierce Brosnan
(Thomas Crown Affair) Brosnan to Rene Russo
(Tin Cup) Russo to KEVIN KOSTNER
“HOLY COW, BUCKAROO!! You really know your movies”
Matt installed the new widget and was on his way. Stopping in town he picked up local newspaper. The editorial headline caught his eye, “GENERALLY SPEAKING, DEAD PEOPLE DO NOT SHOW UP IN THE CITY TRANSIT SYSTEM’s rider statistics.” it began. “But with the large influx of passengers just on Halloween night, we thought it might be something to look into.
