Nerwonduh and Dr. Teddy star in Internet Film!

"What my animals do when I am not looking" or "Playing Frisbee"

by Anthony (Great Bear) Feinman

Nerwonduh and Dr. Teddy are in the movies! See story below.

As many may already know, my animals are stuffed brats. From dropping water balloons on passing neighborhood dogs, throwing nuts at squirrels, and taunting visiting raccoons, my tiger is full of mischief. A talent he has passed on to the other stuffed animals that reside with me in Bloomington. I tell these stories to anyone that will listen but most of them are not believed. So, now the truth comes out at last! Footage of what my brat animals do when I'm not paying attention to keep them from destroying my apartment and my sanity... (for more information about Nerwonduh, Visit his bio page.)

 
Two of my stuffed animals, Nerwonduh and Dr Teddy, decide to play a little frisbee in the house...WITH MY DVDS!!
Not amused!

Secrets of the Sonic Screwdriver revealed

by Dusty the Dragon Lord

BLOOMINGTON -- People see me wearing my latest Dragon Lord outfit complete with trench coat and sonic screwdriver, and think I am just a detective or something.

But they don't know the tremendous power contained in this special tool given to me by the Time Lord.

As you can see in the photo above, the tool pulsates with great power.

It is not a mechanical device. It is technology from a different universe, and therefore is beary difficult to comprehend.

I can use it to open doors, unlock doors, close doors, repair technology, and control just about any type of technological device, especially electronics.

In the Dragon Realm, electronics do not work, but there are plenty of locked doors and other such uses for such a special tool.

In addition, it must be attached to the TARUDIS, my time travel machine, to allow me to operate the time machine. For right now, until I obtain the Carbuncle Ruby, the time machine can only travel between dimensions (in space) not in time.

See the story below to see how the TARUDIS works.

Love,

Dusty

The Saga of the Dragon Lord

A Journal of Discovery

 

"TARUDIS Secrets"

Part IX

By Dusty Harmony (translated from the original Orishan by Myke Feinman)

 

Editor's Note: As you will recall in our last episode, Dusty found the Sonic Screwdriver and discovered the TARUDIS, a time machine left for him by the Great Bartholomew, a.k.a. Brown Bart the pirate. Meanwhile, the Arjogun have the Carbuncle Ruby and are trying to figure out how to use its awesome power to destroy the known universe. Read on, pilgrims..

DRAGON REALM --- Jalapeno and I prepared to leave the Dragon Realm on our way to the home planet of Orisha.

We have the TARUDIS, which is an acronym for Time And Relative Ursine Dimensions In Space, similar to the ship used by Dr. Who known as a TARDIS.

The TARUDIS only works as a time ship when the Carbuncle Ruby is inserted as its main power source.

Meanwhile, I have to use my dragon key to open the door to the TARUDIS and use my Sonic Screwdriver to turn on the machine.

However, without the ruby, I can only travel from one dimension to another, not through time.

The Dr. Who button, a trinket from the past.

Since we are outnumbered here in the Dragon Realm with thousands of Arjogun taking over these lands, we decided I should take a trip to our home world of Orisha to send for help.

While I am away, Schaumburg will be in charge.

He has my horse, Crackers to ride around the lands, if needed.

My big brother Schaumy is the one who found the TARUDIS for me.

Schaumburg as a Knight in Shining Armor with Crackers, the horse of the Dragon Lord. It was Schaumburg who discovered the location of the TARUDIS.

I neglected to tell you the story last week of how he obtained the time machine.

Here's what happened:

Schaumy was riding through the prairie in search of the TARUDIS when he came upon a forest with trees that looked beary, beary old.

He reasoned this might be a handy place to hide a time machine, so he and Crackers entered the lush forest.

Once inside, he could hear strange hoots and howls coming from the trees.

The wind rustled in the tree branches, blowing lots of leaves onto the dirt floor of the forest.

Looking down at Cracker's hooves, he noticed the horse was clomping through lots of dried leaves.

He noticed a small creature scurrying about in the darkened forest.

Suddenly, he saw two glowing eyes staring back at him from behind a clump of trees.

"Halt!" a voice called to Schaumy. "Who dares enter my sacred forest?"

Schaumburg stopped Crackers and dismounted from his horse.

"My name is Schaumburg, and I am on a mission from the Dragon Lord," Schaumy announced.

Without warning, a gnarled, old human wizard came out of the trees, holding a magic wand fixed on Schaumburg.

"Tell me your mission, and I may decide NOT to turn you into a toad," the wizard warned.

At that moment, to Schaumburg's surprise, Leni appeared out of nowhere with Chocolate and Lavender.

"We thought you might need our help," Leni said. "I used my magic to send us here.

Chocolate was wearing a pirate outfit. Lavender had on her usual Ursa Fu outfit. Leni was dressed as a cowgirl in pink boots.

"Wizard, you will not harm my husband and will instead help us in our mission," Leni pronounced.

Leni pulled out her wand and the old wizard put his wand away. He suddenly slumped down and was very meek.

"I am sorry," the wizard said. "I wanted to bluff your husband so he would leave. I'm not very sociable."

"Tell us where the TARUDIS is," Schaumburg demanded.

The wizard removed some branches and leaves covering the machine. A magic rose was sitting next to the machine.

"It is here. Tell the Dragon Lord he may have it with my compliments."

The Dragon Lord and his time machine.

Leni, Chocolate, Lavender, Schaumy and Crackers transported the machine back to the Pirate Queen's castle.

Louis was surprised to see Chocolate and hugged her.

Arrgh! A pirate and his first mate, Louis (left) and Chocolate.

So, Schaumy was left in charge in the Dragon realm, now with some extra help from the girls.

I left for Orisha on my mission.

* * *

Will Dusty get back to the Dragon Realm before Frank E. Vil learns how to use the Carbuncle Ruby against the pirates and Orishans?

Will Lavender use her Ursa Fu skills to kick Frank's alien butt?

Find out answers to these and other questions in the next exciting episode of the Dragon Lord.
