As they're being brought to the village, they are told that death was their only option, however, they each had their choice of the method they would use to kill themselves. The British man requested a pistol, and cried out "Long live the queen!" as he blew his brains out. The two others watched in horror as the savages flayed the man and made his skin into a canoe. The French man was next, and he requested a Saber. "Vive le France" was what he cried out as he disemboweled himself. The American guy watched again what they did with his body, as they made his skin into a canoe. The last guy, the American guy requested a fork in which to kill himself.

All too often when they have a "good heart" flaunting on their sleeve... rarely does it fail when true colors emerge as their motivations are not fulfilled. Camouflaged with a deceitful smile... hyenas feed their hunger of malicious &amp; sadistic laughter by meticulously aiming to inflict damage.

I whispered to myself. "It can't be!"&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: "But it is," the person at the door then said back to me, through the rainy gloom of my house's threshold. "And I've come to finish off what I started--sixteen years ago!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: The persons voice was like thunder, louder than the lightning that blasted outside the doorway.&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: For a moment, I had mistaken it for a man's, but as my eyes pried through the darkness, I managed a faint glimpse of the person before me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.epochstar.com/pageImages/MC.jpg"&gt;&lt;/IMG&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: "You recall who I am?" the flat, guttural voice inquired.

No! not in any tradional sense of the word!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: 'He' stepped closer, and I could see it. I could hear my malevolent deed reverberate through the air with every clomping of his heavy footfalls.&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: The sound was terrible, like the marching of an army to war, but I endured it...barely. To the best of my ability, I stood my ground, until his shadowy form came that much closer to my own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: "Clump...Clump Clump...Clump...Clump Clump"&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: That noise! I screamed from within, but dared not utter a word. I collapsed upon the hardwood floor, feeling around through the darkness for something--anything, any weapon or makeshift instrument of death that I could use for self-defense--but found non. The sweat was billowing off my form, and my hand slipped against the cold ground. Sliding backwards, I began to cry.&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: "Murderer! Leave me alone!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: And that is when it happened, the lightning struck one last time&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: BOOM!&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: All the room was filled with light, and I could see him. Impossible! How the poor wretch of a half-man had cheated death...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: "Look at me!" he roared, his tremendous voice filling my awareness.&lt;br /&gt;BonerFang: And I did. What I saw was incredible, for below the man's waiste was no man at all. But the headless, body of a horse.

My eyes were glossy, and my mind had not yet rid itself of those effervescent thought processes that plague me so in the early day. Ideas came, then went.  Nothing coherent in the least, and it was several, long minutes of staring at the stark-white ceiling of my bedroom before I even realized that I wasn't still asleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grudgingly, I pried myself from bed. Went upstairs to begin today with a Diet Mountain Dew (TM) from the beer fridge. Caffeine owns me, and the scars from its painful lashings feel all-the-more prominent, burn just that much more bitterly, when it has been nearly 8 hours since I last consumed its delicious, chemical greatness. I pulled the can from the box, glanced at the label: it was different, and not the same can label that I had remembered from prior beverage experiences. It looked like a can of generic "Kroger-Brand-Mountain-Dew-(TM)-Wanna-Be-Bullshit-For-Your-Money-But-You-Buy-It-Anyway-Because-It-Only-Costs-Three-Cents."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I began to wonder if the people who designed and marketed this new can were aware of what I now realized, that the new design looked worse than the old one. But, resigning myself to the notion that beuty is in the eye of the beholder, and that the people at the Mountain Dew (TM) marketing plant [or whatever] probably know what they're doing, because they don't live with their brother at age 20, I expunged such fruitless thoughts from my consciousness, and simply continued looking at the can. It read, "Same Dew, New View."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dwelled on this, as I opened my can of citric, fruit-juice wanna-be. Essentially, it's label was an advertisement. It was telling all those who read it that it was the same. No different from before. It had merely tricked your eye to glancing upon its cyllindrical shape with its feigned novelty. In a sense, it was new. But only externally. That seems to be the only place that ever gets changed on, well...anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.epochstar.com"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Space Sci Fi Game Adventure&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;http://www.epochstar.com
