Impulse causes you to run like the wind. You see the huge wheel you were previously bidding for and grab it again on Impulse.

As you run across the dusty lanscape you can hear the sound of horses behind you. You dare to look. Behind you there is a very angry mob of bidders. They're all holding either pichforks flaming torches. The leader who appears to be the one who bought you has a  Flaming pichfork! He starts to swing the rubber dingy over his head like a lassoo.

You realise there is a huge chasm before you. He laughs like a maniac.

When it seems that all hope is lost you realise how much you hate cleaning. Its now or never so taking the huge wheel you climb onto one side and jump down the gaping chasm.

You shut your eyes and pray to ever god and looney tunes charachter you know.

Before you ask -- I wrote this back in 1999. It was on my original first-take for the CYOA site concept, so I figured I'd toss it up here as a keepsake. I realize it's probably not up-to-snuff with my current stuff here, but I thought it was funny and it was one of the stories I launched this site with, so it's here for nostalgia's sake more than anything. :) Play on!
