In 2315, 5 years into our cultural exchanges

  • In 2315, 5 years into our cultural exchanges with the Krutati of Altair 4, we discovered that their cities and culture and even the Krutati were created by pranksters from the 21st
  • Baboon Brigade, Tactical Practical Joke Battalion. The pasty skinned Krutati were paper-mâché, their soaring crystal cities merely cardboard. This wasn't the first time the Baboons
  • had turned the tide of a godzillian battle against the sheep dog people among whom the Shilen was strengthening it's presence. The captain of the Baboon Brigade, Bogous, celebrated
  • by throwing feces. Bogous the Baboon had serious
  • anger issues that even feces-throwing therapy couldn't cure. And since no shrink in town had taken him seriously didn't make things any better. Poor Bogous the Baboon had no choice
  • So he killed himself
  • many times in his head before diagnosing himself with schizophrenia. Only then did he start to hear the voices in his head. "Kill yourself, you're not worth anything to anyone."
  • "You're schizophrenic" diagnosed another voice in his head "don't listen to him!" But the first voice wouldn't back off: "Kill yourself, and that funny-sounding voice with you."
  • And then, another voice...one he had not heard before...&it was coming from a burning bush in his backyard. "Do not listen to them," the voice said. "It is MY voice you must obey.
  • " When the sewer grille joined in, the man threw up his arms and shouted, "All right, that does it!" He then shot himself in the head, and the voices were finally silenced.
