HOW TO BE A "CHARACTER"

GeoCities Featured Site

YES! "THE WORLD OF SOOSE" IS NOW A GEOCITIES FEATURED SITE, AS OF 5/19/97!

Welcome WEBTV

kitty washing Welcome to the World of Soose. What's a "soose"? A "soose" is me. I'm Soose and this is my world.

"HOW TO BE A 'CHARACTER'"

OR

"IS MY 'BALLOON' SHOWING?"

The...rain...in...Spain...is...mainlyintheplain.Shoot!Diditagain...(sigh!)...Peter... Piper...picked...OH!...Hi,...everybody! Soose...here! Can...you...believe...it? I... am...STILL...having...trouble...learning...how...to...talk...normally...again. UGH!! ThatHugo!ThisisallHISfault!!...(ahem!)...Remember? From last month? With Jamie? And Sue...my creator...was the...translator?

Well, Sue is not here now...and I'm getting better...I think. I wonder...how Jamie... made out... Anyway, I'm expecting another guest...Yes, ANOTHER guest is coming... It seems that people WANT to come here every month! And be a GUEST, no less! Amazing... I don't understand it......

Well, anyway, this month's guest is not like any of my past guests. This month's guest is Dudette from NET4TV. Dudette is a "character", as opposed to a "real" person. She is very helpful in solving your Internet problems in a "Dear Abby" sort of way. Dudette is coming here to discuss her new site, NET4TV (formerly "TV WEB SURF SPOT"), which is making its debut on the Internet this month.

No, after the Denise Andresen "kidnapping" affair in May, I am NOT sending Hugo or those idiotic Movers to escort Dudette here. As the saying goes, "she's on her own"...

Yooo-hoooo! Soose, honey, are you there?
Its ME, DUDETTE! Yooo-hoooo!

Dudette? Welcome! I'm Soose!

Oh, dear!
There must be some sort of mistake here...

Mistake? What do you mean?

Well, you are a "character" like ME, right?

I guess so...

Do you have a "creator"--you know,
someone who writes what you're
gonna say and do?

Oh, you mean SUE? Yeah...

Well, honey, you're a "character"!
But, your problem is,
that you don't LOOK
like a "character".

Really? Well, how am I suppose to look?

Well, first off, honey,
you gotta have an IMAGE.

Image?

Yes, sweetie. I have an
image, and I brought it with me.

You BROUGHT your image with you? (ahem!) Okay...

YES! And here it is...
Dudette
SEE?

Oh, yes! I SEE! An IMAGE.... Hmmmmm....

Dudette
And you know what else
you need?

There's MORE?

Dudette
My goodness, YES!
If you're a "character",
you need to have "BALLOONS"!

BALLOONS???!

Dudette
BALLOONS!!
Honey, you can't talk WITHOUT
your BALLOONS!

I can't? (ahem!) I see....

Dudette
YES, sweetie!
Look, I also BROUGHT MY balloons.
I NEVER go ANYWHERE without
MY image and balloons.
right
SEE?

THAT'S a balloon??

Dudette
Uh-huh! Now, when you
put the two together, they
look like THIS.

Hi! My name is Dudette!
Dudette

WOW! That's great!

So you see, honey, we
"characters" have our own equipment.
You understand?

Dudette

I think so.....

Well? Where are YOURS?
Dudette

Uh, MINE?

YOUR image! YOUR balloons!
Where are they?

Dudette

Well, lets see....first, my image.....

How's THIS?

OH, MY!
Dudette

animated
Well, what's wrong?

Well, Soose, honey, you're just a
character. You're NOT auditioning for
a role in "The Exorcist"!
Can't you stop that rotating stuff?
You're makin' me dizzy!

Dudette

animated
OH! Yes, I see what you mean....
But, I like doing that! Oh, ok....
Soose
How's THIS?

Oh, MUCH better!
Now, what about your balloons?

Dudette

Soose
My balloons....
I'm sorry, Dudette, but I don't seem
to have any balloons. I guess Sue
didn't think of that....

Don't worry, Soose honey.
I always have spare balloons.

Dudette

Soose
(AHEM!) I see....spare balloons....ok....

Don't laugh! They DO come in handy
at times! Here ya go.
Try THIS one.

Dudette

Soose
Ok.... How's THIS?

Honey, you really DON'T know
much about balloons, do you?

Dudette

Soose
NOW what's wrong?

(SIGH!) You've got it BACKWARDS....
Dudette

Soose
OH! Hehehe.... I feel silly.

Soose
I think I've got it NOW.
How's THIS?

GOOD! That's GREAT!
Now, you're a REAL "character"--
just like ME!

Dudette

Soose
NEAT.....!

Well, Soose honey, I hafta go now.
Dudette

Soose
GO?! But, you just GOT here!

I know, sweetie, but I have places to go,
people to see, and my new site, "NET4TV",
which is in its BETA format, to run. And besides,
after hearing about
your past guests, I think I'd better get
goin' while the goin' is good.

Dudette

Soose
Oh. Well, thanks Dudette! Thanks ALOT!

Don't mention it, Soose honey!
BYE!

Dudette

SLAM!

Soose
That Dudette....what a NICE "character".
BUT, I STILL like doing THIS....

animated

Hey, Soose! You here? I just ran into the STRANGEST person....she looked like a REAL CHARACTER! Ya shoulda SEEN her....

animated
HI, HUGO!

AAAAAAAHH!!!!

SLAM!!!

Soose
FEELING BETTER?!
Humph! Well! No matter....I like it!
