Mister-Ella was a
techno-guy in New York City. They called him the smartest
guy in the Big Apple. He went to teach at conferences a lot!
His real name: Jim Bainey Ella. Mister-Ella for short.
Except some people who didn't know abut his Cinderella-ish
life called him Jim-bain.
One day when Mr. Ella was
sitting in his office on a Tuesday at approximately 6:00 in
the morning, John 'Whatsisname' (as Ell called his boss)
came in and burst out, "Too bad you won't be at the
conference that me and Joe are going to!
|
There's a PowerPC and $5,000,000
to be won! HA HA HA!" gloated John 'Whatsisname' as he left, laughing
very meanly.
"What a great boss he is," Ell
mumbled sarcastically under his breath. The very next day Ell woke up
in his NYC apartment. He hadn't slept all night because he was
thinking about the PowerPC and the $5,000,000.
He got out of bed, shaved,
(leaving shaving cream on his nose).
Then he got a quick breakfast of a
bowl of fruit loop-de-doos and Cappuccino, and hailed a taxi cab and
hopped in. Little did he know that the taxi driver was his fairy
god-co-worker.
Only when the driver dropped Ell
off, did he notice that the driver looked a bit strange. All of a
sudden, just as he got out of the taxi, the taxi started flying and
hovered over him! "I..I...I thought he looked a bit weird," said Ell.
All of a sudden the car disappeared! "Whoa!" said Ell.
"Daydreaming again, Bainey?" asked
John W. "HA HA HA!"
Later that night, when Ell was
surfing the Web, his fairy god-co-worker appeared right in front of
him! "Hi, Ell! Ah'm your fairy god-co-worker! Ah hear ya wanna go to
that conference in Portland, Maine."
"Yea, I sure do!" said Ell.
"Bring me a Duracell battery."
"What size?" asked Ell.
"AA" Ell checked his pockets, and
finally found one.
"Here, fairy god-co-worker," said
Ell as he handed it to him. The god-co-worker took his magic modem
and zapped the battery and it turned into a private jet!
"Hop in, we'll be there in no
time." When they got there, Ell signed in, sat down at a computer and
went to Netscape. While he was sitting there, the loudspeaker came
on. They announced the winner, and the winner was Cinderella. But all
that was left of Cinderella was a glass slipper, so when they pulled
the next name, and it was.....John Whatsisname! Ell couldn't believe
his ears! John Whatsisname, his arch enemy had won the PowerPC and
$5,000,000 check! Ell loaded the $5,000,000 check and the Power PC
into the private jet and took off.
"I still don't understand why John
Whatsisname wasn't there!" Ell said to his fairy god-co-worker.
"Ah, I bet you'll find out," said
Ell's fairy god-co-worker. Once they got back to Ell's office, his
fairy god-co-worker disappeared. Ell ran into the office to spread
the news. And when he got in, there was a surprise party waiting for
him! And guess who thought of it! John Whatsisname!
"So this is where you were the
whole time!" said Ell.
"Yea, I thought you needed a bit
of a party after winning a PowerPC and all that money!" said John.
"Well this sure was a good
surprise, John!" said Ell And then Ell lived happily ever after.
