    It's obvious, the man was in the bogs on a plane and decided to light his own fart with a match. Of course when he did the air pressure increased drastically and he was sucked through the toilet to his death.

    Oh and tct, seek medical help wink.gif

    He was walking along on O'Connel street when the french multinationals decided that they needed a ?scapegoat? for their baby eating operation. They picked him up in a cab and then the cab sprouted wings and it flew to the top of the mountain. They cut off all their feet to prevent the footprints being seen and dragged him to the top. While there they realised that he had a baby in his womb. They cut him open, ate the baby and sewed him up using the match. They then discarded the match and left.....leaving the man to take the blame!!!!!!1


    I'm a fuppin' genius!!!!!!

    not that i could ever compare myself to u tct, but....


    One day long ago, in a land far far away....

    A man was running along the main street of a
    german town in the russian quarter of
    germany(i could tell u the name of the town
    but then i'd have to kill u). The german
    mafia, GDB(God-Damn Bunnies); an offshoot of
    the more well known KGB(Kill all God-damn
    Bunnies) was after him and he had to act
    quickly.
    He turned a corner and slipped into a side-alley. He stopped running, the rain would
    now mask his footsteps.
    Breathlessly he made his way towards a blue
    neon light (the kind of blue neon light that
    always seems to be present in suspect side
    alleyways in the bad end of every town).
    upon reaching the doorway he noticed the sign
    "The Blue Whore".. paused briefly; and against all his heightened instincts he
    walked in.
    The first thing to hit him was the strong
    stench of ugly pu55y, the kind of smell u
    only get from german whore houses, still, it was better than the rain. he let his
    senses by-pass all the outside turbulence
    and take in tha new scene. there was a few men sitting on old decrepid looking chairs
    with 'women' hanging on to them. there was a
    doorman who was not on the door, though who
    was now making his way towards him...

    "u got money"
    "i just want a drink" he replied making sure
    not to lose eye contact and maintain the
    air of superiority.

    the bouncer merely jerked his head in the
    direction of the bar and turned back to
    the whore that he has just left...muttering
    "dont stay long if u ain't going to use
    the facilities"

    the man made his way to the bar, to where
    there was a young lady serving, perhaps too
    goodlooking to be working in a place like
    this; but he was never one to question
    others' choices.

    "Vodka-Redbull, Stirred; not shaken" he said,
    again holding eye contact.
    she served him the drink, also maintaining
    eye contact; which impressed him. She did not ask him if
    he needed 'anything else' so he assumed that
    she wasn't one of the crackwhores.

    he took the drink with a grateful nod and
    sat back. he didn't relax, though; not here.
    Moments later he noticed that the doorman has
    been joined by a friend and both are now
    looking in his direction, while trying not
    to make it noticeable. he chuckled inwardly,
    and made no notice that his hands were now
    no longer empty.
    He left his drink vitually untouched and
    stood up to leave. The girl from behind the
    bar followed him and took his arm.

    "would sir like anything else"?

    Quickly replacing the weapon, he looked
    towards the door; there were now three men
    blocking his way out, one of whom, he
    recognised...he now knew he wasn't getting
    out the front
    way so he agreed to the girls demands
    and followed her towards the back.
    his mind raced, what connection was there
    between this place and his pursuers?,
    once inside the back room, he deftly moved behind the girl and jerked her neck.
    making sure to check she was still breathing
    before leaving, he then made his way to the only escape option: the skylight in the roof
    about 22 feet up he gauged.

    He closed his eyes and jumped, just as the
    two doormen walked into the room. he grasped
    the handles of the skylight, opened it and
    pulled himself through, looking back to
    make sure the girl was safe.
    She was..
    He left.

    Using the rooftops he ran for about four
    blocks or so before returning to ground
    level. he had to get back to the safe-house and get his family out of germany as soon as
    possible. they were too close to risk
    staying any longer....

    ....."What do u mean they were taken", blind
    rage now replaced his heretofore calm
    exterior. i will not accept this, he turned
    and put his fist through the wall. the
    woman he was shouting at returned to
    dealing with the injuries of a middle-aged
    man obviously shaken.

    "calm down Jerod", the man on the couch
    had waited until now to speak. "we know where
    they've been taken....."

    ......dispite bad visibility, Jerod could see
    his family through the windows of the old
    warehouse where they had been taken to.
    they were
    surrounded by at least 15 men that Jerod
    could see and countless others that he
    couldn't see, probably lying in wait amidst
    the numerous carts and boxes outlying the
    center area containing his family.
    only now did Jerod realise how badly they
    wanted to capture him and take him back to
    the lab. if they even suspected that his son
    -- now tied to a chair beside his mother --
    possessed even more heightened senses
    including better motor control, stronger
    muscle tissue and faster
    reflexes; he would not be here but also back
    in a lab, like a rat.

    he opened the window and sneaked in quietly.
    two men occupied the area underneath the
    window. dropping lithely, jerod broke both
    their necks in a swift move, and broke his
    fall using their bodies. he was still too far from his family to risk attempting a
    running re-capture.
    quietly circling through the open space where his
    family was, he slowly removed every threat
    that was lying in wait for the anticipated
    rescue effort they knew he would attempt.

    he had just finished dealing with the last
    of the men lying in wait and was about to
    make a try for his family...

    "Jerod we know u are already here" the man
    in the leather shouted out.
    "u can go home we no longer want u" he
    shouted picking the boy up and putting him
    in the back of tha van waiting beside the
    vehicle access tunnel.

    realising to late that he was wrong Jerod ran
    -- making a vain attempt to reach his wife
    and child in time.

    still 10 metres short Jerod watched as the
    man in leather put four bullets into his
    wife from the window of the van as it drove off.

    the van was long gone when he reached his
    wife. she was dead; no mistaking that, but
    revenge would be his, and that was beyond
    all doubt.


    in the back of the van, jerods son
    familiarised himself with the many calming
    techniques his father had shown him over the
    years. knowing himself not to be in any real
    danger, he visualised the petrol tank in his
    mind and slowly, carefully, opened a hole in
    the tank.
    the petrol started to pour out fast.
    before long the car came to a halt on the
    side of the road, both men in the front
    not even suspecting the child of tampering
    got out.

    they had not gone far enough for them not to be weary of Jerod, whom they knew would still be after his kid.....

    Jerod now in the back of a car, saw the men
    in front, standing to the side of the van.
    he watched as they hailed a car from the
    highway and got in. mentally connecting with
    the driver of the car he was in, he again
    told him to follow the new car

    they followed them to the airport, where
    jerod got out and again followed the men to
    a distant runway where there was a plane
    waiting.
    after watching them board the plane jerod
    jumps on the wheels and lets himself in
    through the small hatch-way.

    a quick scout, showed him that there was no one on board except the two men and the pilots.....

    the two men entered the plane and sat down,
    each smiling to themselves, a job well done
    they both felt. the boy captured, and now on
    their way towards switzerland to deliver him
    to the people in charge, the plane took off
    and began to increase to cruising altitude.

    some minutes into the flight, neither man
    saw Jerod sneak up behind them
    and break the neck of the man to the left
    of the man in leather who had killed his
    wife.

    after killing the first man, jerod turned to
    the man in leather whos back was still
    turned, as he was lighting a joint, believing
    himself to have triumphed

    jerods son again calmed his mind and focused
    on the door of the plane after much effort
    he forced it open. jerod then ran
    forward and pushed the man out of the door
    before he had time to react.

    the man in leather had time to take two
    puffs from his joint before he crashed dead
    to the ground on the top of the snow covered
    alps with the joint in his mouth and the
    match beside him.

    jerod walked over to his son and untied the
    ropes. then he walked into the pilots ****pit
    and mantally ordered them to change course
    to Ireland, the land of nice people, where
    he could rest and relax for the rest of his days


    THE END


    and yes i do have nothing else to do smile.gif

    Wyv.....Again u demonstrate the skill of prose quite imaculately....fair play to ya..you shud rite a book m8 smile.gif

    But two little technicalities:
    1) His wife did not in fact die. She survived the four bullets, however her unborn child was killed in her womb.

    The wife in fact died a half an hour l8r when the plane turned round to head to ireland. It flew over her head and her son was at that moment on the crapper taking a dump. His giant highly sensitised turd was ejected from the plane by the flusher and hit her in the head dealing her her fatal blow as the plane flew overhead. Just a technicality but it was in fact a near super sonic turd that killed her! smile.gif

    2) I think that if you look back you'll see that the neon sign actually read "Die Blauen Frau" seeing as it was in Germay and all.

    The man was one of a party in a hot-air balloon which had a slow puncture. Flying over a cold mountain range, the balloon began to sink and this was a Bad Thing.

    So they decided they needed to shed some ballast, but they had already cut loose all those tanks/sandbags that ship standard with every BuildYourOwnHotAirBalloonKit. So they drew straws (but used matches instead...I mean, who's gonna have a pack of straws 10,000 feet up in a HAB for chrissake), and our fella drew the short match.

    Poor guy. Snow unlucky (arghhhh).

    he listened to chariots of fire for too longon his walkman - Climbed too high and ran out of oxygen? Couldn't light the match because of it too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 524 ✭✭✭silverski


    Well done PAW...

    I should have made a foot note to the effect that this puzzle was only open to those who had not already heard the answer...

    It is so refreshing to solve the puzzle on your own......

    Till the next time...
