and well of course I crashed out after a long day.
You know I have to admit I'm going through a bit of internal dilemma at the moment and it's hard to explain. I guess it goes back to a concert I worked on a few year's ago, actually the band is on tour at the moment in Australia. And you know what, it kind of sickens me really. And whether I should go into a whole epilogue about the thing is probably debatable, but let's just briefly clear a couple of things up. And maybe latter I'll go into the real emotion behind it. I worked on a few music festival's etc as an aroma therapist, natural healer for a while. You know, when the "almighty powers that be", would see fit to let an "Australian", work in their own State and Country for that matter. Now I am going to cut a very long story short here but this needs to be said.
This is how I feel about this matter. I was there for work, sometime's I'd do okay in terms of money.
The fact that they we're "Rock Stars", was because I was targeting my business to a market segment that I believe had a requirement for the service. Not only that I've always' loved music (except my piano lessons) from the time I use to sneak up into the lounge room on Saturday morning's to catch the latest music releases, while mum and dad slept, to growing up and going to Roller Skate Hall's in Adelaide and Darwin, where we'd hang out on weekends. I'm not sure that's where it started, however they were some of the best time's of my youth in "Non-Alcohol Music venues". But anyway, that was then, of course in the grown up world of "Rock and Roll", alcohol prevails. And you want to know something ?? The more I've learnt about alcohol along the way, the more it disgusts me. From it being the term's of trade for the Queens Army along with tobacco to the significant point at this particular concert of being handed a half drunk bottle of wine I'm told from the lead singer via the guitar tech whom I had massaged. Now I'm not going to go into this in any great depth because it's a waste of my valuable time, however, I should let you know this.
I still have the bottle, which my parents kindly finished off, personally, I would like to give it back to you, in fact preferably I'd like to throw it at you. However for the sake of it shattering and causing harm to other's I don't. That is what I think of you, and you know when you come to my country and participate in protests against financial institutions, despite my inability to work out who is the more artful devil, least we forget the current terms of trade between the U.S. and the Australian Government, which allow's you to take home your earnings and get taxed on it in America without paying a cent to my own country, I really can't help but despise you. You know I'd like to have a reason to admire you, but I have none.
When I hear of your stage antics, handing out your piss, as though you're doing humanity some great favor, I can't help but feel of you as a stumbling buffoon. In fact more so I think of the Indigenous Australian's that lay in their graves with syrosis of the liver, because they had no understanding of the filth that you and your European counterparts brought to my country. Again, at the least you disgust me. Call me a hypocrite that's fine, but personally this is my opinion on the matter.
You know I am very capable of love, but I can not love that which uses the banners of poverty to increase their own wealth. So if Australia does actually have to witness another of your performances sometime in the future, please make sure that you use the tree's from the forests I've heard you've bought to print the posters. That way I can at least be sure that some of my own countries natural resources are not wasted on your over bearing ego. Hey, if it is a last goodbye, I can't help but think I'm glad.

Gunner goes to his sleeping quarters, and lock in commences. Computer can be heard in the background.
Meanwhile Iceexplosive, has recently arrived at a rather interesting room. I'm not going to go into the details other than to say this is the Silication chamber. She assends a small flight of stairs, and Silication process begins.
As I said, I'm not going into what's going on here, however it's quite vital for the plot and way visual. Real eye popping stuff.
Meanwhile back in Rhyd's quarters, he's pacing back and forward, checking the lock, pacing, checking the lock. You just know his wanting to get out, but he can't or can he ? He sit's down on his bunk,
Rhdy : "Oh man, this is not happening" as he rub's his temples. "Come on Rhdy think !". "Resolve the discrepancy of time, what the hell is the discrepancy and what the hell is wrong with this picture". He lay's back on the bunk "Think dam it, wrong time ?, wrong place ?".
You can see his starting to drift off...and it's not long before we see twinkle, twinkle little stars as he enters dream state, in fact we see quite a few odd things including flying sheep, however for readers of young (as in new to Rhyd's adventures) , well usually Rhdy has a number of odd experiences when he enter's dream state, particularly when King Board is around, but King Board's not exactly in range so what is going on......build's the suspense up...
Rhyd stirs, in fact it doesn't look like his having pleasant dreams at all.....and then ......a noise is heard.....he shakes his head what is that noise ?? At first we the audience have trouble determining it ourselves... his face is tensing as though something unpleasant is occurring...and then in the distance....a sound that is somewhat more distinguishable is heard....first once, then twice then again, in a regular succession, gradually growing louder....until Rhdy murmur's in his sleep...
Rhdy : "J-String ????"...shaking troubled.
Cut's to Lady Dragonfly and The Captain in the Loader, The Captain, is turning some knob's :
Lady Dragonfly, yelling : "I said what's that noise ?". A repetitive Bass string is heard among, what can only be described as the loudest racket you've heard in a lifetime.
The Captain: "It's Metal".
Lady Dragonfly : "Its what".
The Captain : "Its Metal".
Cut's to Rhdy
Rhdy : "J-String ??"...said as he slowly stirs....hearing the bass line..
Cut's to Iceexplosive halfway through a Siliconation process
Ice : "Rhdy". Said somewhat panicky...wonder what's wrong. ??
Cut's to Dragonfly and The Captain.
Dragonfly : "What, like this ship?".
So there you go people. For those of you who have been around a while, well this is quite a monumental occasion as it see's the reintroduction of a significant character J-String from the first episode Steel City Skater . For those of you that have no idea what's going on Too Bad, ....also interestingly enough....and said with no regrets a little too bad for everyone else, because sad but true, this is the last insert that's being published online. Of course I'll be working away on it madly over the coming week's, however something's just have to stay under wraps, whether people like it or not, and I would be the first not to like it, but hey, there's some real scum bag's out there.
So that is all, don't hold your breath waiting for the next episode, well not unless you're someone I really detest, because that's as far as it goes on line....
