Coinalot and the Tale of Coinosaurus Rex PART-5**************************************

BearBear Posts: 18,953 ✭✭✭
Oncwe again we return to our intrepid Knight, Sir Coinalot

on King ArtR,s Quest for the Dragon. As You may remember,

Our gallant knight has been abandoned by his chicken fellow

Knights. Alone, he has traveled the dusty land of Coinalot,

in what appears to be a a hopeless Quest. Suddenly, he

meets the Good Bishop Keets standing by the side of the road
d
half hidden in the morning mist. Bishop Keets, recounting a dream

he had the night before, is able to direct to Sir CoinLt the correct

location of the nefarious Dragon Coinosaurus. Finally meeting up with

the Dragon, Sir Coinalot issues the Knightly Challenge to enter mortal

combat ,according to the ancient rules of chivalry. The dragon,

unexpectedly asks for a truce, in order to talk and drink Oolong tea.

Accepting this unusual request from what appears to be a most civilized

dragon, they both enter the cave and sit down by a large table.

After the Draqon serves each ,a cup of Oolong Tea from a huge pot,

they proceed to talk.


Sir Coinalot : Dragon, is it true that you have ,with premeditation aforthought, sneaked

sneaked up on comely maidens of the Kingdom, and stolen a smooch

without their leave?

Dragon : Alas, tis true Sir Knight. A dragon leads a solitary and lonely existence. A smooch

: A smooch now and again adds a little life to an otherwise dull existence. But I give

my word, that I have never harmed a single hair on the head of any living thing.

Especially the comely lasses of the Kingdom. I am a strict vegetarian you know, and

do not harm living creatures for my sustenance.

Sir CoinLt : Dragon, what of the matter of stealing warm bread and porridge from the peasents

when they place them on the window sill to cool?

Dragon : That too is true Sir Knight. A dragon of my girth has a mighty hunger. The scent of

fresh baked bread and steaming porridge is just too much for me to bare. Thus,

I stole them ,ate them and, enjoyed them. They were always most delicious.

the peasants of the Kingdom are very good cooks you know. Another jelly donut
Sir Knight?

Sir CoinLt : Yes thank you, I don't mind if I do. Bye the Bye, do you happen to know a rather ,

portly ,furry , ursine creature known as Bear?

Dragon : Quite so , that lovely chap buys all of my jelly donutes for me. He has excellent

taste for the very best quality you know.

Sir CoinLt : Getting back to the issue at hand Dragon, what of the matter of the overdue library
books?

Dragon : Again Sir Knight, I must plead guilty. I am a most studious dragon. I love to read the history

behind the various serious of coins. In fact, I have written a number of articles and even have

a new book out on E-Bay. However. a dragon may steal books, in the still of night, but it is most

difficult to bring them all back and scare the daylights out of the poor librarian. I would certainly

be agreeable, to paying the fine if arrangements could be made to cart all of these books back to

the Royal Libraries.

Sir Coinalot : A question dragon, do you in fact breath fire?

Dragon : That is a most interesting matter Sir Knight. I do indeed breath fire. Mainly to light the kindling

under my pot of Oolong Tea. Normally I do not breath fire, it dries my throat and doth causeth

me to have a terrible taste in my mouth. In addition, the fumes give me a terrible headache.

Sir Knight : Exactly, how is such a flame doth produced dragon?

Dragon : Tis a little known fact, but dragons are able to preduce a number of different gasses for different

purposes .Some are used for fire, such a Methane, Hydrogen and various Sulfurous blends, others

are used to give me boyency when I fly such as Helium. Then there are the Noble gases.

Sir Knight : How doth thee go about ignighting the dragon fire. Is there a secret organ in thy body for such?

Dragon : Nay Sir Knight, tis all done by a flick of my Bic.

Sir Coin Lt : A flick of your Bic?

Dragon : Yes indeed. Have thee never heard of a Bic Lighter?

Sir CoinLt : aside from stealing food from the peasants, how doth thee support yourself?

Dragon : Remember when I mentioned the noble gases that I can produce. Well, I

discovered if I run Argone, Xenone , Neon and Krypton in various proportions over

coins of the Realm, they would tone all sorts of fantastic colors. The process would

work even if the coins were encased is strange plastic holders. I found If I showed

these coins to various coin dealers passing by, they would give me money for as

many toned coins as I could produce. Depending on the mix of gas and temperature,

I can produce fluorescent, halo, target and all sorts of variation of toning.

Sir CoinLt : Thus thee are guilty of being a coin doctor to add to your other long list of crimes and

misdemeanors.

Dragon : Well, even a dragon has got to make a living. Anyway, my mother always wanted me to
be a doctor.

Sir CoinLt : Dragon, you seem an honest and likable sort of creature and not at all the rough demonic

sort that I had expected. If thee are willing to accompany me back to the Castle of Coinalot,

you shall then stand before King ArtR , to have justice rendered upon thee, then there be no
need for combat to the death.

Dragon : Tis a fair offer Sir Knight and I gladly agree to such and will accompany you to the Court of

King ArtR to be so rightly judged. For King ArtR is known wide and far as the most fair and
just of Kings.


With that, the dragon packs his bag and both he and Sir CoinLt head back to the Royal Court of Coinalot.

Stay tuned to this channel for the exciting and concluding part 6 of our story. (At least I certainly hope so)



-What it to be the final fate of Coinosaures Rex?

- Will the Good Bishop Keets again appear?

- Where will the revelations of how and who is
responsible for the infamous PEA***K hoard
of toned coins play out.

- What of the Possum Posse, will it be seen riding
ever again?

- What perils await our travelers, on the road to Coinalot?

- Does the rain , fall mainly on the plain, in Spain?

- What role does Sir Marty the Mad and his Chicken Charley
play in this , seemingly never ending Saga?


IF THIS STORY LASTS MUCH LONGER, I WILL HAVE TO CONSIDER

MAKING IT INTO A FULL LENGTH MOVIE. I WILL HAVE TO HAVE A

TALK WITH SPIELBERG IN THE NEAR FUTURE. PERHAPS OVER A

NICE HOT CUP OF OOLONG TEA AND JELLY DONUTS!

    Actually, I watched Kukla, Fran and Ollie with my kids.

    It was a most delightful and caring show.

  • before there was coinalot there was nothing. or was there/


    The last day of life, began with all matter being converted to the highest degree of entropy.
    the very instance of matter and atoms last conversion to energy before the total exhaustion of fuel it once held.
    as the last particle was converted, a time of darkness covered all reality.
    low levels of radiation in the dieing atoms, were fused to form what may very well be carbon.
    as heat ran cold, and the collapse of space imploded on its weight, something changed.
    something was introduced, something that added every element we know today.
    what it was is uncertain, the possibility of a second universe colliding with the dark matter had a strange effect on this burned out matter, it swirled it stretched it grew and became part of a larger universe..
    The big bang never happened! Emptiness was introduced, and electrical impulses charged every atom as it repelled, it repelled, and is still repelling today. Galaxies and planets, the stars, and every black hole repel. The cold interstellar medium of space was resonated to the degree of self resonance, together with electrical impulses, and magnetic fields of frequency life was created out of this material called carbon. Stretched and incorporated with every element of the second universe we are born into the world, and our observations are the reality of matter incorporating, changing into the fabric of the static universe that only god could have created.

    Gas clouds moved across the cold medium of space, bombarded by the sound of frequency of its invisible atoms, stretched apart the basic, and strongest chemical forces were realized. Attracting electrons, and protons form the sky, and water, the light, and the iron of our life, love kindness and truth. The eyes were finally opened, and we witness the creators work with ever frame of time, and every movement through space.

    The light was fused, with darkness, and then separated from its sources.
    good, and bad, night and day, truth, and lies all become the outcome of movements, and our observations of life itself. Wile entropy once again converts the energy once contained in the single atom to what may very well be the single molecule we call carbon.
    Humblepie

    I have found power in the mysteries of thought.

    It is always a question of knowing and seeing, and not that of believing.

    Our virtues, and our failings are inseparable, like force, and matter. When they separate, man is no more.
