fandomtownies | Fandom Island Gazette, Saturday

Carl was sitting on the stoop outside the Gazette building today. He'd heard that there were new students and teachers coming into town today and he wanted to make sure they had a chance to know about the town paper. And where to go if they had any tips on big stories.

Which seemed to be lacking in this town. Maybe he needed to make something happen?

Hmm. His reporter instincts hadn't failed him before, so he'd give it a while. Meanwhile, he had a Dear Aunt Fannie letter to read and respond to.

Dear Aunt Fannie,

I have been hearing cannons lately and no one else seems to notice. The other day I heard howling, too, but it was from far away. I'm very sensative to these things and I am sure that we are about to be invaded by ghost civil war soldiers; the howling is obviously my animal totem spirit trying to warn me.

This all makes sense when you remember that this is the state where the civil war first shed American blood and the first attempt to assasinate President Lincoln occurred. And I am sure you have noticed the release of that movie? About the Civil War? Every copy of my cable guide that talks about that movie has dog teeth marks in it, and I only have cats. This is all coming together as a prophecy and I am sure I am being used as a warning.

I think if you printed my letter, other people would become enlightened and we may be able to prevent another attempt by the Southern rebels to destroy this nation.

If needed, you may print my contact information.

Sincerely and with love,

~ Mauve Sunrise Blooming-Bright ~

Finished the letter, Carl rubbed his face in disbelief... despair... whatever. "This town is almost as weird as San Francisco."
