I had a dream last night that I was writing the script for the sequel to the movie stripes. When I woke up this morning from the dream I spent all morning thinking about doing just that. I finally stopped thinking about when I realized that I don’t think Bill Murray is probably too old to pull off an impression of Dean Martin joining the army.

I know you’ll be excited as I am to find out that the lost cone has been recovered.

Five years ago I went to the Sporting Good store and a bought a set of cones.  I had recently signed up to captain a rec team and as captain I needed to have cones to setup fields.  So I purchased my cones and promptly rushed home to write my name inside each and everyone.

See, ever since the minute I have purchased cones I knew there would come a day when the innevitable would happen.  I lived in fear of it, carefully guarding my cones with fear and mistrust of all whom would touch them.  Yet, I knew some day the cone gods would turn against me.  Someday, I would lose a cone.

Well, friday that day happened.

About halfway through our game friday, which we were winning handily, the sky gods looked down on us and took offense at our laughter, at our merriment, at our impressive disc skills.  They decided to smite us for the brazen way in which we loft our frisbees unto the heavens.  One minute it was bright and sunny, two minutes later there was strong winds, terrible thunder, a horrendous outpouring of rain… oh, and did I mention the hail? Anyways, there was a mad scramble to get off the field and into cars and under shelter as quickly as possible.  And in the process, one of my cones went missing.

I went back and looked for it, but it was not to be found.

So, yes, the day I dread has come upon me and I am sad and confused.  For now I am the owner of a set of seven cones, which is completely without value.

I have come up with an idea for a hit new TV Special called “Brandon and the Baby Cheeses.”  We’ll film it in stop motion animation and release it every year during Christmas time, which will coincide with the release of the action figures, plushies, t-shirts, ornaments, and limited edition plastic cups from McDonalds.  The story will basically follow Brandon and he learns about the Baby Cheeses.

I plan to follow this special up with a spin-off TV Sitcom “Brandon and Cheeses” which will be detective show set in Venice Beach California.  I think a spring release would be perfect timing for this one.

Yes, I know I am an odd person.
