...and turn into Josie and one of the Pussycats! Real convenient too. The plane landed in Las Vegas, where wouldn't you know, the ShoWest convention was happening. Brad and Joe broke out of the film cans and escaped through Las Vegas International airport. They made their way up the strip to a TES party at the Hilton. The plan was to pose as high class Las Vegas hookers and hitch a ride with the TES executives to the TES Star, a planet sized fusion powered megaplex control center on the dark side of the moon. The TES Star had one exploitable weakness ---during a recon mission, John Pytlak noticed a piece of neon above a hot dog counter near the center of the installation. Schematics showed that just one shot from a film guard minigun to that clear red tube would short out the electrical power and the fusion reactor would blow the TES Star to bits.

Great plan, but first they had to get there. Brad and Joe were stuck in some cheezy hospitality suite with stale snacks and lite beer. Worst of all, Joe heard a horrible voice say, "hey gal, nice dress!" Joe turned and screamed, "Oh my God, it's......

{in John Wayne-speak...} "Well, well, well...jus' what the heck do you guys think you're doing here? If'n I didn't have ter git on over to ol' Gord McLeod's farm n' help him te' fix that ol' fence I'd take you all out and whop some good ol' fashioned sense into yer!"

Just then, someone reminded The Duke that he had died some time in the seventies.

"Well,..."(ack...) "I, er..."(urg...) "You all..." (thud...)

Brad and Joe mosied on over to where the Duke was laying. They looked at each other and Brad said...

"That's it!!! I've got it!!! Click your heels together, Joe! Click them just as hard as you can!!!"

"You know Brad" said Joe, "You're right!"

As one, they clicked their heels together and said in unison:

"There's no place like home...There's no place like home!"

They woke up the next morning realizing it had all been one big nightm...er, one big dream. Oh how the two chums laughed when they thought of their adventure.

"Ha ha ha" laughed Brad.

"Ha ha ha" laughed Joe.

But it seemed a little strange to Brad...surely not..., no, it couldn't be..., was it just his mind playing tricks on him, or did Joe now look a little bit like Bob Maar? No, he looked again...he looked more like Evans...No, wait...Joe reminded him of Tim Reed.

Ahhhh, but that was surely just his imagination.

...surely.
