N.l. . Honesty. Tell me what you think it would you are still the owner of the elected Palace thank you for bringing up that painful reality that a new electronic store opened and they've got a piano player in the lobby older sophisticated type people are going there instead of coming to the electric Palace. My advertising consultant you have an advertising consultant Well yeah well it's my brother Landy. But are you coming to a point in all of this well he suggested that you become the voice of the electric power. You'll do the commercials you're good it sounded really sophisticated out of the question but how am I supposed to class up the palace without your help I'm sure your think of something now if you'll excuse me I need to pass past. Where jazz is Shakespeare. Touring New England with a selection of my greatest performances so it will be back in a few weeks but. That. What am I going to do now. Hi there I'm John everybody but most folks call me we're getting ready for a time of wonder and excitement I would love to have you join us for another venture Odyssey. But let me let me listen to me No no listen how am I going to find someone else to do my commercials it's not like one of them sophisticated he just going to walk up to me and I just a 2nd brain I even tried putting an ad in the paper I have no idea where I can find anyone who talks also something like that I don't mean to intrude I just don't wait for President Bush at. Lenny I think I'm out of options there or you would. Crack your cheeks you can't go around some public you South Korea so I'm for that's fine. Lanny I'll get back to you Mr Boffin Rathbone I presume of Yeah yeah it's me may I introduce myself please do by name is mouth calmly and I am here to respond to your casting call in the newspaper cash they call only you mean the assure site you say here have a seat. Show you why you want to be in my commercials of the day but I think we may have a problem commercials aren't enough for you Mr Fluff but one you must prove that you're a sophisticated author of us through your actions what he's talking about take a cue from the other electronic stores just last month the calls will branch of the Kings appliance cable sponsored and offered. Well la di da big deal I spotted something. Really what a monster truck rally at the civic arena eyes. Well you need something. Else. I have just the thing a Shakespearean festival but I don't know nothin about the issue well the next stuff I found a cereal box of course your dog but I do I'd be happy to organize it for you I'll even performance a little quid for the finale sounds great. A way it wait a minute what do you get out it is the what do you mean well now you can't really want to do this for free I'll be glad to pay your debt Mike if that's the case actually the joys of performing dramatic soliloquy in front of the entire town of Odyssey is payment enough I demand nothing else has accomplished what what what's this it merely gives me artistic control material control financial control and of course a. Hosted. Kid he recalled with the electric Palace presents. For the people here. And there he did it. Right here. And. He just Sunday Mr Whitaker thanks Nick. It was Mr Whitaker a mic check out the poster a Shakespeare festival sponsored by the electric palace just what. You feeling Ok at the festival look at the bottom the best act of the festival will receive their choice of any item from the electric palace with the exception of. A bunch of stuff in small print Ok I'm still waiting for the punchline don't you get it make any item the electric Palace sells. The computer game 10 packs we want exactly so to get them we just have to do the best Shakespeare act at the festival I think I see the 1st problem with your play and what we don't know any Shakespeare if you don't mind me interject I think I have an idea for you go ahead it's something I saw on stage years ago come on back to the library I'll show you. Here this read this scene from Romeo and Juliet gross. This is a sword fight Hawk cool I can do that Ok Nick you read Romeo Ok And as a viewer if you read Art Tybalt now has slain Mercutio. Thank you but you see oh my very friend put on your behalf Romeo the hate I barely can afford no better time than this Phillip fi I'd be my conduct now turn and draw and then we fight Ok so we perform the scene like it is that doesn't seem very exciting to me Well this is the fun part you take this scene and adapt it well what would this same scene be like your for well if we made a Western for example or a cartoon or a sports movie oh I get it if we made a sports movie the sword fight would be like a slam dunk exactly I think you could take the 3 or 4 funniest versions and make it a comedy act that could work what do you think Xavier sure it's worth a try hard Great let's get started. This is braggarts Harlequin here so yeah yeah fairly dingy please a little do for the festival and I'm Proud did you come by. Permission for us to use it well we're a business partner. Allow me to test the acoustics What if he had. To be all you know to be that. You know. You. Have to learn. What do you do with my doing what are you doing here how did you get into my field will you really shouldn't leave the back door key under the problem pot and but you said you'd be gone for a few weeks. Was cancelled you. Slumping economy in that region in other words no one would buy tickets to your sure. How do you know you. Matt. Malcolm. We meet again used to know one another have crossed unfortunately. Now I get mom to know what is going on here well. It's a really. I suppose there's nothing I have nothing to do with this good I found advertising us to expect us to act sponsored by the electric bass maybe it had something to do with that without my knowledge and consent and you Malcolm. People in charge of it and. It isn't this is to get back at me playing those times I best to do when the pounds. Me fully. Is told through me no one else perform Shakespearean my. If we're not welcome here we'll do the performance in the pub. To do you know what it will cost to rent lights and equipment for the park will. You have to pay for it all why do you think I wanted to have it here and you may need if you get rid of him nice try we got a signed contract I'm the organizer the director he's got a point there. Oh all right. Festival here but I also perform. All right let me know which piece you would like to do here in good time. You want me to go to which to borrow some costumes from my program what about Shakespeare can he do that if he were here and there was only enough money for one 1st class ticket so he volunteered to.

Mark you can do that you got my Which you can do after you finish helping students 1st just like you. See from your week no. I got myself into. A dozen Bob thanks for listening to plug in. N.b.c. Delivers yet another soap opera like better drama with its new show Chicago mid it's an emergency room full of character tension and life saving suspense and though this medical world may not be quite as saucy improvise as in other med shows such as Grey's Anatomy or private practice there are still health issues to be aware of clear. They would be any for the babies some rough language is the 1st cinematic pathogen then there are romantic relationships and scantily clad characters in the mix perhaps most problematic though is how graphic and bloody The e.r. Work can get so I'm giving Chicago med a 3 out of 5 for family friendly it for the full review go to plug in dot com slash radio I'm Bob all just keep our focus on the families plugged in. We always want to give our kids fun gifts but it's hard to find things that last or had any real meaning then we found this great club that gives them access to all of the adventures in Odyssey episodes it has just the right balance of faith fun and imagination and the kids love it with their one year membership they can choose from over $800.00 audio drama episodes to stream or download for later plus a monthly magazine finally a gift that lasts and they'll love order today at a I o.

To fight have your way I will do it on my own and it will be better than. No man can do is decided on my act for the program yes I'll be doing the famous soliloquy from the fic I'm doing that's what you. I'm world famous for that silly. Swear only and you'll buy it is I who will say who does what I'm the director it's my oh you'll play that card from the bottom of the wheel you . See a compromise that will allow a neutral 3rd party to decide which of us should perform said file fetch mist of. His but with no good shape span from an electrical outlet than. You want me to do what merely decide which of us performs a better having that sort of equipment I've only agreed on the belief that you'll be truly biased Well I'll do my best. To go 1st. Well maybe we should go out for that it would thank you all by. A very. Long not. That the Bush Notice how he posts through are you whispering very miserly great 2 of course prig continue. His no good in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows about worry just for interrupt . I merely wanted to point out that you use it out for a just torture the correct language is slings and arrows of outrageous fortune I say to our great just for to now of course you do please go on well he also mispronounced it would. Die to sleep no mood to sneak a chance to really. Good is how could we possibly go on when you keep interrupting I could hardly stand to see. You all suddenly to a house all right all right I released. Taking all of those obvious gentlemen off your usual 1000000 years before we go any further I may have a solution to tell isn't the whole point of this festival that everyone can do something different I suppose so why don't the 2 of you do 2 separate soliloquy then you wouldn't have to compete. Perhaps you have stumbled upon a solution has to be because I didn't we think I'd try to do all that we needed was an outside of video game will be all the way up to a cup of tea on the way. He has the wisdom of Solomon dogmas to particular Yes he does say so which so little bit shall I put you down to before. I have to give it some fog which will you. Have some decide on the not a spontaneous decision as to where perhaps I'll do the same. As long as it isn't having the why worry as long as you don't do have one concern is it of yours what I do with your not doing have a bomb but I do have that since you agreed that you won't and I agree to no such thing you agree because you agree. With aren't facts not of the day how we would. Break that cock. Right over to flat. Drain. You want to kind of meant to be down off not worth of dust which the roof between the power roof breakers and ministers are very different from. full story visit dad. The next adventures in Odyssey Why don't Marvin and to me could get to do the things that older kids do what you drinking.

Oh go ahead be honest what happened to Xavier I thought you were going to do this act together we decided to split up why well I guess you could say we had just the differences I was and he wasn't but you 2 were so good together maybe I should talk with See here oh no really wait it's Ok I think I can do the just fine on my own it's maybe not what you want to hear Nick but I think the charm of your act was in the tour you doing it with just you it doesn't seem as funny to get back together well think about it I'd recommend thinking about assume the festival is tomorrow night. Oh. It's only a couple of minutes a delicious start I was afraid I would have to holistic. Actually there's been a change of play so. Could do you if you gave me a cold bus full subito you with the bits of the fish I put but the show is about to start and you are hosting I bust wrist by voice for the super liquid you will have to host the show just. To be on best I have the script written out for Bush it would make if he can do it a loss I did pretty well actually have to bow as well I must or so risk tolerance that.

Ecclesiastics for say as 2 are better than one though 1 May be overpowered 2 can defend themselves if one falls down his friend can help him up but pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up usually we like to get our own way but God tells us that we were better together I think Nick and Xavier figured that out hopefully Edwin and Malcolm will learn it some day too so what did you think of today's adventure why don't you write and tell me our addresses adventures in Odyssey Colorado Springs Colorado 80995 in Canada right to box 9800 Vancouver b.c.
