It's been a while since Guy's renown Uncle has appeared on the scene. But don't imagine that he's not been busy! Far from it! Uncle has been occupied in using the best agricultural skills of the Brick Seas to breed the largest size of palm tree yet! Of course, such a beautiful palm tree couldn't go to waste! Guy's Uncle did a little snooping around the account sheet... and got a hold of a certain someone's minion. He also sent a nice note to Countess Agnes Mesabi, asking if she wouldn't be present at an interactive demonstration. She was kind enough to agree. Not only had Uncle grown the largest palm tree in the Brick Seas, but he had also developed a brand new, simplified way to hang people by their toes. After tying the person's toes securely to a hefty rope, Uncle got a strong sailor to toss an empty bucket attached to the other end over the top of a palm tree. Then the sailor climbed the tree and began to drop stones into the bucket. This was something of a slow process, but it got done eventually. Agnes Mesabi watched in admiration... until the sailor started to tie her own toes... "What?!? You can't do this!" "You were in the red last month," Uncle responded. "Me? That was my husband!" "All the same." And so the process was promptly repeated. But fortunately for the poor hangees, a messenger ran to Uncle up just as they were struggling. "Sir! The Colonial Council is considering implementing a MRCA tax on..." "What?!?!? A MRCA tax? I must register my protest instantly!" And Uncle dashed off, faster than anyone had ever seen him run before, and before the messenger even got a chance to say, "on Oleon." Thereupon the messenger and the sailor good naturally helped Agnes and the minion to descend, considerably ruffled in temper, but unhurt in body. That's all for now, I'm in a powerful hurry - sorry the pictures aren't quite up to par, but it rained all day!
