This message is from: Doug Knutsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi again -
In our last episode we left our hero, Doug the Steadfast, congratulating himself on having foiled Pepper the Intrepid's further attempts to get back into the log cabin. Recall that he jammed a bolt through the lock and screwed a nut onto it so tight that he wasn't sure even he of the Great Strenth could get it off. Wiping the dust from his hands, he left the field smiling with pride. The next morning Peg the Weary was picking the pasture while Doug was stringing a new piece of cross fencing. On his way back from that task, he happened to glance toward the cabin door and something shiny on the ground caught his attention. What could it be? Oh, the suspense! Imagine his surprise at discovering that the shiny object was the nut that he had screwed so tightly onto the lock bolt the day before! Nonplussed, he was heard to declare that the bolt alone was wedged in so tightly that Pepper would be unable to budge it. Stay tuned....Peg Knutsen
