An INTERVIEWâ€” With Tormie
-----------------------------------
[font=Impact][size=24][color=#E50000] An  INTERIVEW[/color][/size][/font]
[font=Comic Sans MS][size=18][color=#FF00B2]with the Tormienator...[/color][/size][/font]
 :sofahide: 
     [font=Comic Sans MS][size=14]   by leahman[/size][/font]

I awaited   for some time expecting Tormie to arrive, and    'as I expected, 
[u]he appeared a few hours late[/u]   in the   Dodge,  turbo-deseil[font=Comic Sans MS][b][size=14] Prowler[/size][/b][/font] convertible,   
he acquired at the Airport. 

From inside my Office,   I heard: :shocked!: 

[font=Comic Sans MS][size=24][b][color=#B200FF]R O A R o o OOOMM......
...S C R E E C H[/color][/b][/size][/font]  
[font=Impact][size=24] ...B l u i m t h p c k ! ---[/size][/font]     
[font=Comic Sans MS][b][size=18][color=#0099FF]" Eh   'S o r r y  ...  about   'yur Kitty  - lady..."  [/color][/size][/b][/font]

I peaked out the window to see that  'He parked the car  then
took a few minuites   to [i]figure out   'how to work the door handle,[/i]   then 
he  got out...  
 :uuh: 
He was dressed in black pants,  with Hush-Puppies on his feet, and a Tee Shirt   
-where [font=Comic Sans MS][b][size=14]Ringo[/size][/b][/font] was standing in front of the [font=Comic Sans MS][size=14][b][color=#E500FF]Magical Myestry Tour[/color][/b][/size][/font]- Bus. Then, realizing
that  he was wearing  'most of the pizza  'he'd also gotten at the Airport, he changed
into a (somewhat)  clean  shirt...

and I heard    -the doorbell ring.  
      :hug2: 
Answering the front door He smiled cordially, and followed me through
my home, into my Office, where he sat on the couch, and gazed out the window.

He gave a big wide smile but  was  interrupted  by [u]a low[/u]   but certainly   [font=Comic Sans MS][i]audible   [/i][/font] 
[font=Comic Sans MS][b][i][color=#7200FF]release of bodily gas[/color][/i][/b] [/font] - that  lasted  -at least  40 seconds   and had,     -a very    [b][i]-zippy[/i][/b] ending...
                         (My ' Cat   retreated, with a startled  expression) :sick: 
Apparently flying   'made Tormie - neverous...
I went to my desk( to breath) and to [font=Comic Sans MS][b][i][size=14]get a Steno Pad[/size][/i][/b][/font], as he stared around 
the room.  Noticing the candy dish  on the coffee  table, filled with wrapped 
Butter-Rum candies he helped himself, muttering something  -about  the 
[font=Comic Sans MS][i][size=14]crappy food on the Airplane.[/size][/i][/font]
 :sad: 
Apparently these,  only further activated his appetite as he then reached inside  pants
pocket and produced a cellophane wrapped packet   -of [font=Comic Sans MS][b]Cheese Crackers[/b][/font].    

The cellophane [i][b]stubbornly refused[/b]  'his pudgy fingers,[/i]  but he  smiled and then produced
a  pocket-knife  'with  which   to [font=Comic Sans MS][b][i][size=14]coax[/size][/i][/b][/font]   the stubborn cellophane  [i]-open.[/i]
The  [font=Comic Sans MS][b][i][size=14]-years dull knife,[/size][/i][/b][/font] finally succeeded   -in getting   the thing   'open, however, the 
contents were now   reduced  to  [font=Comic Sans MS][i][b][size=14]more-or-less   '- cracker-crumbs...[/size][/b][/i][/font]  which he lapped
up out of his hand.  
 :) 
He had black -rimmed glasses[font=Comic Sans MS][b][i][size=11](I wondered  -if  they were Italian Army issue)[/size][/i][/b][/font]
and his brown thinning  hair was showing gray.  I went  into the next room (the kitchen) 
as  I was interested to see his reaction to  R E A L   CocaCola...

but apparently - those  cracker-crumbs  -had tickled  'his rounded   nose...
         [i][size=24][font=Comic Sans MS][b][color=#00FF33]U[/color]ah [color=#00BFFF]C[/color] [color=#9900FF][color=#8CFF00]H[/color][/color] [color=#CC00FF]o[/color][color=#3300FF]o[/color][color=#8CFF00]o[/color][color=#F200FF]o[/color][color=#00FFD8]o[/color][color=#FF0099]o[/color][color=#FF00CC]o[/color] [color=#FF0000]! ![/color] [/b][/font][/size][/i]

The cracker crumbs were now  '[u]all over the room[/u], and  his hand  -was filled with a combination
of the [size=14][font=Comic Sans MS][b]Yellow-Orange  'cracker crumbs[/b][/font][/size], and the green reminant  -of a [font=Comic Sans MS][size=14][b]truly [/b][/size][/font] -devastating sneeze...
[size=14][font=Comic Sans MS][b][i]"Want some cracker-?  "   [/i][/b][/font][/size]  he smiled sheepishly, showing me  [u]'what    his hand[/u] [i]now  contained[/i]
as he rubbed   it  slowly  'onto   -the belly of his shirt...
I brought him something to snack on, -easier to open...

[font=Lucida Console][b][color=#00FF0C][size=14]NO NANNER -For You donkey... You might get fat...[/size][/color][/b][/font]
---------------------------------------------------------------
"No Thanks ."   -I answered.

"So Davide, you operate the world's only site, dedicated to a single Poser Model. What is it
about the P-4 female that captures your imagination,  to the extent that   'you'd  devote   -such time
and egostencial resources  as necessary   -to   bring her to life ?"

[font=Comic Sans MS][i][size=14]"She-    got-   [i]'[b]nice[/b] wegs[/i] cute feets and [b]big [/b] tiddies..."[/size][/i][/font]  he answered    -but looking  
-at the collection of antique surgical  'and barber instruments -on my coffee table.  
[font=Comic Sans MS][b][i]"What'z THIS ?"[/i][/b][/font] - he asked,  picking up  a particularly ominous-looking   surgical   spreader   
-that had belonged to a long deceased   'surgeon relative  of mine last-used in the [i]Civil  War.[/i]

"Be careful... with that... it's ..."    "  [font=Impact][color=#F20000]OUCH ![/color][/font] " he wailed, holding  -a now  [i]pricked  stubby finger...[/i]
"[b][size=14]SHARP..[/size][/b]."     -I said...  he plunged it back on the coffee table, his feelings  -obviously hurt   by  the
encounter...

"And  how [u]do you find[/u] America,   now  -that [i]you  are here ?"    [/i]
[font=Comic Sans MS][size=14] "  I [u]not   drive[/u] [i] the plane...[/i]" [/size][/font]he replied.
"[font=Comic Sans MS][size=14]so  I  [i][b] not     have [/b][/i]  to find   America...   plane driver  [i] she -knows    where  she is...[/i][/size][/font]"  he was  drinking the
CocaCola  -as if  he'd never tasted  anything like it,  so 
I offered to  sweeten it with  some Crown Royal.   He tasted it [i][b]stirred it   a little [/b][/i]
with the end of his finger, then motioned for me  'to [i]add  more - to it.[/i]

Soon he was telling me, [i]his entire life story.[/i]...  and he was [b][i]swaying   -and getting happier[/i][/b] 
-[u]all the time[/u].  He much liked my worn NASA jacket, and I gave him a real Applo 12 Mission Patch
when he said  that he wanted   -to "[font=Comic Sans MS][size=14][b][i]visit NASA[/i][/b][/size][/font] "  and  [font=Comic Sans MS][b][i]"fly  shuttle into Space."[/i][/b][/font]

[b][i]Before he was completely ineaberiated[/i][/b] I asked him about a [b]Secret Project[/b] , the  posibilities he'd
been investigating, 
[b]If you've ever played 1st person video games, or seen a demo of 3-D applications like "Second Life", 
then you are familure with how as a Character, you can enter cyber space as a 
3D character, almost like a real world.  Posette4Forever would be the first   Poser Website to have a 
real Cyber Clubhouse where members can  meet and converse, as the 3-D characters  we all know.
[/b]
[img]http://www.donkeyzone.net/coppermine/albums/userpics/10003/WORLD.jpg[/img]
This Cyber Clubhouse may have many different "levels"  in the same way that there are different
locations within a Video game.  You could soon be taking a tour of Venice, in a Gondola steered by
a wise-cracking Bus-Driver, in -real-time, or take a ride -on Tormie's Bus, or join Indiana Tormie 
in a treasure hunt. You'll be able to "speak " to your PF friends, and accquire and use objects, but  as in  
-all video  games there are dangers and pitfalls, too numerous to mention.

[u]We'd talked for some hours[/u], and I was enjoying our conversation  quite a lot

He insisted that [i]someone was playing a Gag  -on him..[/i]
I asked   'if he'd[i] given my E-Mail address [/i] -to anyone..?  :mmmh: 
but he insisted that  [i]'that didn't prove anything,[/i] because   he hadn't
given any address   -to be handed a telegram  [i]-at the Airport [/i]either.

 :eh:               :dontknow: 
By the time the   Crown Royal  was gone    [b][i][size=14] so was he...  [/size][/i][/b]
(sound asleep)  on the  couch,   hugging    'my  [font=Comic Sans MS][size=14][i]struggling[/i][/size][/font]  'big  cat 
to use him for a pillow...    zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
 :drunk: 
[u]It is our hope[/u] that as matters, such  'an impending change of residence  subside,  - that
Tormie will [i]continue to make PF [/i]  -[u]the best place on the internet[/u], with [i]the[b] special Magic[/b] and creativity
that comes with a heart as big as Texas[/i][size=10] ( and a certain lack of personal hygine )[/size]

[font=Trebuchet MS][b][size=14]TORMIE... [/size][/b][/font]   my friend,   
For all the fun we have -with you
[size=8]
[/size]and being  'such 'a special Guy...
