Mr. Hilenbrand was angry. More angry than any person should ever have to be. "Those stupid people!" he thought to himself. It still hadn't ceased to amaze him that anyone would even consider attempting the type of thing they were doing.

As if erasing the deed from his mind could be accomplished in the shower, Russell turned on the water and grabbed his robe and towel. Just as he stepped into the steaming water, the phone rang...

and as he climbed out he lost his balance and slipped on the cold linolium (sic?) floor. He twisted his right ankle. "#6$@#@%^%$#!!!", he yelled at the ceiling.

He could hear his wife saying something to the answering machine....

I wonder if she realizes I've fallen and can't get up, he thought to himself.

As he listened more closely, he could hear her yell at the machine, "Wait! Wait! Don't hang up! $300,000,00!!!"

'Doggone it hon, let me get the shampoo out of my eyes and make sure I didn't break anything.. and we'll discuss this together calmly. After all, we DO have to remember that Yabe was there for us when.. '

"All Yabe did was bite the security guard. The poor man got so flustered he shot himself in the foot," she said.
"Still, he wasn't shooting us."
"True." She frowned. "Why is your ankle turning purple?"
"I believe I have injured myself."
"Oh for heaven's sake. First the dog and now you!" She flounced out of the bathroom.
He reached out to grab the hem of her bathrobe to stop her long enough to remind her to call an ambulance. The robe's sash untied and the robe slid off her body.
She turned and glared down at him. "Now you've done it!"
He stared at her, aghast. There, on her belly, was a...

Russell cried,"My god! You're a Fed! How could you do this to me?!?"

Her lip curling, his wife Amy spat, "To you? It's always about you! I went to them when I found out that you were a..."

"...I was trying to conceal the fact that I'm actually an advance scout for an alien invasion fleet. My orders were to blend in as much as possible"

"An alien invasion fleet?" she gasped. "I don't suppose you mean you come from another country," she pondered hopefully.

"No, my dear," he chuckled evilly. "Not THAT type of alien."

Suddenly, to the vast suprise of both of them...

Bill Gates was standing in the hallway....
Russell fell to the floor and began to bow....
"Russell!" he shouted "you have compromised my plan to take over this planet"...."To infiltrate each & every home with a Windows based computer, and get these simple human creatures addicted to the lure of my WEB".

"You fool!" Bill Gates thundered. "You inserted Windows ME into a brain without the capacity to withstand the drain it causes on memory capacity!"

Viciously poking his finger at Russell, Gates shrieked "You have 24 hours to..."

... it must be that child that the man from the Chinese laundry had with one of the munchkins from the Wizard of Oz ....

"I knew that I should have kept those little people out of that laundry," she sobbed, "it is all my fault."

"What ever will I do now?"

Russell informs his wife, "We have to make some phone calls quickly!" We have to call an attorney in case I really fall and can't get up. We'll sue our homeowners policy and have loads of money which we can spend on.............
