Murdo is all a buzz. The town darling, Murdo Girl, is officially Next Pres, and Lav is NVP, (Next Vice Pres). You must be asking yourself, “Now what?!” Apparently, you are not the only one.
Yram Sicnarf, fresh from her trip to “Back to the Future,” is at the Campground Compound speaking with Murdo Girl.
Yram: So Murdo Girl, now that you are officially Next Pres, are you planning to take some time off for a little staycation?
MG: What? I can’t do a State of the Nation Speech yet! Is this off the record Yram, or are you here in your crack up interviewer capacity?
Yram: Actually, (full disclosure), people are live streaming right now.
MG: Really? Are they catching anything?
Yram: As a crack up investigative reporter, I do a lot of social networking. The signal is always pretty strong here.
MG: Well, if they’re having to use a net, I’m glad it’s working. That means the big ones are getting hooked. By strong signal, are you referring to the noon whistle?
Yram: More like addicted Murdo Girl. Almost everyone has 3 or 4 devices. Someone needs to blow the whistle on all of the nefarious activity going on.
MG: It isn’t noon yet. The whistle doesn’t blow til noon. We all have vices Yram. It doesn’t mean everyone is having an affair. What do you mean us? Do you know something I don’t ?
Yram and Murdo Girl both look a little confused, but not nearly as confused as the person with the cockeyed crown coming toward them.
Lav: I just had the weirdest dream. I was a volleyball player in the Olympics and I couldn’t get the ball over the net. I felt like such a loser. I guess it’s cause we lost.
MG: We didn’t lose Lav. I’m sorry you had such a bad dream, are you okay now?
Lav: Yup..In my dream, I talked to the sports psychologist. She told me to go home and take a Zumba class. I heard SCS (Sioux City Sue), is facilitating a” Zumba to the Oldies” class at the Harold Thune Auditorium. Or is it “Zumba for the Oldies?” Either way off I go..bye. Oh wait! I forgot my iPod so I can listen to my fav earworm.
MG: Ya know Yram, I think it’s time I called a meeting. I want to inform the team of their new cabinet positions. People need direction. Maybe with some direction, there won’t be so much confusion going on here.
Yram: Good idea MG. Like the Queen always says, around here confusion reigns. She does like that Bling though.
MG: Bling? Who is Bling? Is he trying to be nefarious with the Queen?
***************************************************
Later that evening, most of NP Murdo Girl’s entourage is finally back at the Campground Compound. They’re all full from eating beans and franks, and a few leftover hard boiled chickens that Jerry couldn’t sell.
Murdo Girl decides to take her book and a flashlight and read by the campfire. A I, and the Town Crier are sitting there listening to Carol sing.
A I: What are you reading Murdo Girl?
MG: The dictionary. No matter how many times I read it, that crack up reporter Yram comes up with a word I don’t know. Do you think the encyclopedia would be more up to date?
A I: Is Yram threatening to unfriend you MG? She thinks she’s so smart with all her “mental floss.”
*************************************************************
And so ends another day at the Murdo Girl Campground Compound. Soon, NP Murdo Girl will be announcing her cabinet. Will “Other Murdoites” join the team? It should be interesting, but it might not be. Let’s hope it is.
Just remember….If you snooze you lose.

A Capella! Where’s the wine?

I don’t want to play in your yard,
I don’t like you anymore.
You’ll be sorry when you see me
Sliding down our cellar door.
You can’t holler down our rain barrel,
You can’t climb our apple tree.
I don’t wanna play in your yard,
If you can’t be good to me.
You can’t holler down our rain barrel,
You can’t climb our apple tree,
I don’t wanna play in your yard,
If you can’t be good to me.

FYI : MG as Val would NOT want to be behind SCS while doing her “Zumba for the Oldies” at the Harold Thune Audtorium. I would suggest she wait for the “Karaoke for the Oldies” when we bring out the roller skates with keys and sing with our BFF, Melanie.

I totally agree with SCS. I will do Zumba with my experienced instructor and get in shape for Karaoke for the Oldies— or with the Oldies— and I’ve got a brand new pair of roller skates. Get ready, Melanie!

Very clever NP MG. If you get your cabinet together, you can put up a firewall and take a Terabyte out of cybercrime. Or maybe you can have all the Twin Bings and Cokes you want. Murdo can be your oyster Murdo Girl. Or maybe you can help NVP get the ball over the net. Infinite amount of possibilities!!!
