Roger Bond - The Finale

There is more than one reason why blogs were invented.

Sure, they are useful for spitting out political commentary. And reporting news the media misses. And, chronicalling every day life.

There is another purpose, too. This string proves it.

There are far too many people who have no talent who publish their work online. And it kinda gets annoying. Because by reading it, it is quite obvious they have no talent. For example, check out the blog "Lonely Housewife." No, it is not a porno blog, but it would be more interesting if it were. I would provide a link, but I cannot find it. Anyway, you don't need to read such crap. Basically, it is a bunch of stupid poetry. There is a reason why no one reads poetry these days.

This string proves that I have zero talent as a screen writer. That is why I am typing away on a blog out in the boondocks somewhere is Washington State, rather than living somewhere in Los Angeles generating multi-million dollars in selling scripts that will never make it to the screen, much less become a movie. This also explains why I am not a member of the screen-writers guild.

I also found out there is a new series about James Bond at Eton. So, I was close about his aristocratic upbrining.

However, I will not let you all hanging, so I shall finish my thread.

Roger and James make it to Manchuria. Because he is so drunk, he gives the real plans to the Japanese army. They take over Manchuria. Oh yea - James meets Indiana Jones, too, who is on his way to Tibet to prevent Nazi's from stealing some secret, mystical ingredient from a bunch of hidden Aryans that will allow them to take over the world. At that point, the Indiana Jones theme song plays. Although the Nazi's were not in power in 1931, their nutty mystical side certainly led them to put faith in relics - The Indiana Jones Series is not entirely based upon fiction. Someday, I will write about the real Hitler, and the real Nazi's, too.

In any case, the Japanese take over Manchuria, thus leading their invasion of the rest of the Pacific ten years later. Roger Bond suddenly feels inspired to join the Great Proletarian Society over the border - James thinks it's because a trainload of cheap alcohol is heading to the Soviet Union.

Then, like a National Lampoon ending, it goes over the fate of all the characters. Good background music is Van Halen's "Good Enough" - inappropriate for 1931, but good for this feature. It will sound real tinny, due to the film quality. We know what happens to James and the Kennedy's. Roger eventually becomes the father of Vladimir Zhironovsky.

There, I will try again to stick to what I do best. Maybe I will bore you someday with my idea for a Scoobie Doo sequel - of what happens when Fred, Thelma, Daphne, Shaggy, and yes, Scoobie, all meet up, appropriately aged, in 2006.
