Disclaimer: Obviously the grammar is woeful and so is the spelling, remember that this story was written by four people in a chat session on skype.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">Wow what a wonderful morning said Melody the Roasted <st1:place w:st="on">Peking</st1:place> Duck, what shall I do today? I think i&#8217;ll start with breakfast, but what shall i have?</span><span id="more-5"></span><br />
<span lang="EN-AU"> I have bread so I could make toast, there are crumpets in the fridge or I could make pancakes&#8230;.what do I feel like?<br />
Melody decided on pancakes and began to get the flour out of the cupboard when she found &#8220;PANCAKE MIX!!&#8221; Melody shouts with excitement, she&#8217;s feeling very lazy at the moment, so she decided to swim across the lake to Maccas to buy some pancakes for breaky, but on the way&#8230;&#8230;.<br />
she relised she couldnt swim but luckily&#8230;<br />
there was a boat, full of refugees floating in the middle of the lake (they&#8217;d got lost) they<br />
didn&#8217;t even notice Melody to begin with, because they were all fishing and singing, luckily there was a small child thrown over board, cos it was signing and not singing! The child saw Melody when he was trying to crawl back onto the boat&#8230;.but the singing refugees noticed Melody because she was flapping in the water so much and sadly they captured her, but the small child who introduced himself as Bobo befriended the poor, half-drowned duck and as Melody was now an Australian citizen, she shortened Bobo&#8217;s name to just Bob, wow they had some wonderful conversations, Melody started telling Bob about this one time at band camp&#8230; She stuck a &#8230;. poster on the wall of a little asian boy singing in a boat on a lake and continue by saying that she&#8217;d had a great time that year at band camp. She was hoping that by making friends with Bob he would run away with her and they could go to Maccas for breakfast, she was craving a hash brown and freedom, as she was still in a cage with a heap of chickens&#8230; but she had an idea and began telling Bob about these wonderful chicken burgers from Maccas, Bob then told his Dad the Captain of the Boat who suddenly turned the about around, chicken burgers for everyone, Melody was soooooo happy, </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">but then the boat started to break and water began to come into the boat and make it very heavy&#8230; it started to sink and Melody and Bob were holding onto each other  for dear life then Jack came flying down in Helicopter, he&#8217;s Melody&#8217;s long lost twin brother, he resuced Melody and her friend Bob, but the rest of the boat slowly sunk into the deep deep lake never to be seen again&#8230;..Bob was upset his Captain Dad was gone but very excited as he had never been in a helicopter before, just as he began to smile the twin brother Jack started attacking him and trying to peck out his eyes! Bob lashed out and joined in, after struggling for quite some time, and pecking his eyes out, they realised no one was flying the helicopter, it was too late&#8230; the helicopter crashed into Maccas.<br />
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br />
<!--[endif]--></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span lang="EN-AU">The End</span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="EN-AU"> Do you know the saddest part of this story?</span></p>
<p>It was past 11am and Maccas wasn&#8217;t serving Breakfast anymore!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Below is a story that happened using skype and a group chat&#8230;</p>
<p id="euhn" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" align="center" lang="en-AU"> <font id="po9y" style="font-size: 16pt" size="4"><strong id="dsv5">Introducing Dwain the Dwarf, Cheryl the leopard skinned gym junkie tiger &#8211; Saving the World from the Evil Prince</strong></font></p>
<p id="b_op" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="ivez" /></p>
<p id="d0uu" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="gkd5" /></p>
<p id="si79" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">Once upon a time in a land far, far away there stood a little dog right in the middle of a field of bright red flowers. The only way the dog could get out of this field was to chew through all the flowers, the only problem was he was allergic to the pollen and everytime he got close to eating the flower he would start sneezing uncontrollably when he started sneezing he found a wonderful cure for allergies&#8230; <span id="more-4"></span>drinking a coffee, eating a big cake with something written on it it said &#8220;try me&#8221; just like in Alice in Wonderland! weird.. so he did, and then something weird started happening suddenly all the flowers started to shrink, revealing a massive dwarfs head, it wasn&#8217;t flowers they were actually a hat that the dwarf was wearing and now he was taking it off and the little dog popped straight through the stitching into a magnificent head of curly hair, the dwarf wasn&#8217;t very happy he reached up to grab the little dog who accidentally squirted a little bit of wee because he was scared, the dwarf was huge, and then he finally grabbed the little dog and named him Freddo cos the little dog was green like a frog and squirming like a fish, he was terrified, but then he noticed a little cut on the dwarfs sleeve, so he bit down on the massive fingers that were holding him and wriggled free to slip through the hole in the jumper and landed in the dwarfs shoe and noticed the worms!!! but he also saw a great big pile of toes there wiggling about with a group of children, he thought it was wonderful how they were all holding feathers and tickling the dwarf&#8217;s toes, no wonder he was so angry all the time! the dog let out a laugh and then thought how nice it would be to play with all the children, but THEY STINK LIKE FEET!!!! ewww</p>
<p id="tds1" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">So he quickly rushed out the shoelace hole and scampered down the shoelace into a wall! Ow.. he was not having a good morning so far, but as he turned around and looked the other way he suddenly started to feel weird and realised that the effects of the cake he had eaten were wearing off and he fell off the wall and landed on his friend Dwain the dwarf, Freddo started laughing, because he knows he can&#8217;t run into a wall and then fall onto it, unless Dwain had not laid the bricks for the wall properly from the start (silly Dwain). So Freddo bit Dwain really hard, and then Dwain picked up a cricket bat and asked Freddo if he wanted to have a game, Freddo willingly obliged and they started to walk down to the beach together when out jumped a tiger with a really bad cold! He asked Freddo and Dwain for a pretty dress, because she didn&#8217;t like the leopard skin lycra that she was wearing, she had been to the gym to try to burn the cold out but instead</p>
<p id="m1gy" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="z8g2" /></p>
<p id="s5z." class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">had tried to do a lap around the park and had collapsed into the bushes on the side of the path, &#8220;hi!&#8221; she said &#8220;my name is</p>
<p id="tkp4" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="ipk8" /></p>
<p id="j2pw" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">Cheryl&#8230;.</p>
<p id="b1eo" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">I collapsed from walking to the gym, you just woke me when you tripped over my size 8 thong! Did you hurt yourself?</p>
<p id="nsel" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">We are right thanks Cheryl! Who is that in the bushes with you?</p>
<p id="nd.1" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">&#8220;ohhh&#8230; you mean him? he&#8217;s my brothers, room-mates, sisters, aunty&#8217;s cousin I just can&#8217;t get rid of him. To tell you the truth i was dressed like this to try and lose him, make him think i was just a tiger hanging around in the bushes, it didn&#8217;t work. By the way his name is Weezo. Just then it started to rain and a small mouse was watching the unlikely foursome! Hatching a devilish plan! Dwain watch out&#8230;.. a furry penguin waddled up to them all and asked if he could be their friend as he is the black sheep of his family and it looks like he would fit in with them&#8230;.he introduced himself as&#8230;Harry Happy Feet, and no he cant dance like all the other penguins that&#8217;s why he&#8217;s the black sheep! Freddo looked at Harry no quite sure what to think of this strange penguin, and said ..</p>
<p id="dxhd" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">you my friend are the final member of our crew. We must now go and save the world, we have 23 hrs 16mins and 23, 22 ,21 secs&#8230; and counting, quick follow me to my batmobile&#8221;&#8230; they all followed, little did they know it wasn&#8217;t actually a batmobile it was a Kombi Van!!</p>
<p id="v6up" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">Harry Happy Feet wasn&#8217;t too happy with the situation so he buggered off with Weezo looking down their noses in disgust. But why where they holding hands/flippers&#8230;.the mind boggles and Dwain bursts into tears as he has had no affection thrown his way in a very long time&#8230;.but Cheryl is so happy she has finally gotten rid of Weezo, that she grabs Dwain by the hand and heads for the closest&#8230;&#8230; to change into their super hero outfits, after all they only have 22 hrs 51 mins and 3 sec to save the world! Looking all super heroic they jumped in the Kombi van and headed towards Freddo looks under the front seat and pulls out a rotten apple, but next to that he sees a book entitled &#8220;The Idiots Guide to Saving the World&#8221; feeling offended he throws it at the road train going in the opposite direction&#8230;..so where are they going to get there guidance from?? Freddo had no idea what to do next and Dwain and Cheryl were no help all they we worried about is who&#8217;s outfit sparkled the most! He looked to the heavens for help when suddenly &#8230;.they hit a tree, they all feel very upset and sorry for themselves for putting a Green Dog called Freddo behind the wheel. The upset turns into joy when they see that it wasn&#8217;t a tree they ran into, Freddo&#8217;s lifeless corpse is now covering the Evil Prince&#8217;s secret trapdoor that leads straight into his castle where he is plotting to take over the world! They shed a tear for Freddo as they pull him off the trapdoor to reveal a dark tunnel they begin to venture down it when they find the evil prince has a green dog just like Freddo&#8230;.and they realise its Freddo’s long lost twin sister Freddora! They were all so happy they ran to Freddora hugging and kissing her, but Freddora is not the same happy go lucky green dog that Freddo was and Freddora quickly grabbed for her newspaper and started shewing the company of (two) friends back down the tunnel, out of no where Cheryl spots a door, one that she couldn&#8217;t see earlier because her eyesight hadn&#8217;t adjusted yet. She grabs Dwain and ducks through the door to find herself in the Evil Prince&#8217;s secret lair, she was slightly annoyed that she had been shooed down the corridor because some of the newspaper print had rubbed off on her lycra suit &#8211; it now had written across the back “Mills complains about 1zillion billion million dollars”&#8230;..and a smudged picture of a wooden leg! But Dwain made her happy again by brushing off the black print with his pint sized hands. They continued to snoop around the evil princes lair until they heard&#8230;.</p>
<p id="e1hz" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="uluo" /></p>
<p id="p1in" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">footsteps coming from ..</p>
<p id="u_pk" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="m:-x" /></p>
<p id="tnj-" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">behind a wall where a fake entrance had swivelled around and revealed THE EVIL PRINCE!!!! He was only about 30cm high but he looked surprisingly evil.. Cheryl tried to control a laugh when Dwain walked over and the prince only came upto his waist&#8230;..Cheryl walked over to the prince and picked him up by the scruff of the neck and said&#8230;. Its not very nice to try to take over the world! We are here to stop you, you evil prince! Then Dwain &#8230; squealed like a girl as Cheryl swung her head and took a bite out of Dwain&#8217;s arm, just as a warning to the Evil Prince then dropped the evil prince on the floor as she nibbled on Dwains arm&#8230;. which oddly tasted like strawberries! Yum! The evil prince sprang back and took a bite himself, only to find that in doing so he had bit off half of his body (cos he was so small) resulting in him spitting himself out and picking between his teeth to get the remaining skin out&#8230;. the evil prince took a deep breath and Finished himself off, screaming whilst Cheryl and Dwain left the building in each others arms and skipped off to (of course they were on dwains left side as Cheryl had eaten off his other arm) the happiest place in the world &#8230; is a song they were singing as they left the tunnel they skipped to the beach and feel asleep in the sand&#8230;. AND LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER</p>
<p id="wqy9" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="rrtn" /></p>
<p id="vzap" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">THE END!!!!</p>
<p id="slk6" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="doav" /></p>
<p id="sd77" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">then in the after credits like a funny Jackie Chan movie, Freddora comes flying thru singing how she&#8217;s going to take over the world!! and TO BE CONTINUED&#8230;.. flashes across the screen</p>
<p id="je9o" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="p840" /></p>
<p id="b2-:" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">in leopard print writing&#8230;..</p>
<p id="vvk7" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU"><br id="wqw_" /></p>
<p id="fb2j" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in" lang="en-AU">with an evil laugh echoing throughout the theatre</p>
