Maxine says "Hello"

   Franz decided that it was a good day to go shopping for a new pair of lederhosen, despite the fact that he knew not what they were. In fact it is rather culturally biased to suggest that just because he has a name like Franz, he should have any association with an item of clothing such as lederhosen. Franz decides he will start again, with a new name...
   Jakob decided that it was a good day to go shopping for a new pair of clogs...
   Ralph decided that it was a good day to go shopping for a new pair of basketball shoes...
   Fred decided that it was a good day to go shopping for a new pair of thongs...
   Zextlpnghjk decided that it was a good day to go shopping for a new pair of thrglsnaps. Well, it was a good day if you happened to breathe ammonia, and enjoyed walking through dense boggy marshes subject to frequent, violent lightning strikes. Which meant that it was a day that Zextlpnghjk liked very much indeed, since it not only breathed ammonia, but also enjoyed walking through dense boggy marshes subject to frequent, violent lightning strikes. How lovely!

THE END (almost)

   “Say it then!”
   “Do I have to?”
   “Yes!!!”
   “Oh, all right then! Hello!” said Maxine.

THE END (really!)
