Grex Enigma Item 165: Novella
Entered by remmers on Fri Apr 1 02:54:54 UTC 1994:

                              CHAPTER 1

    Remley knew he was wrong.  He knew he was wrong before other
    people tumbled to it.

    Isn't it good that there are self-aware people in this world like
    Remley?  It saves the rest of us a lot of trouble.  It really does.

    Let me tell you something else about Remley.  He never punches
    holes in paper bags.  I've never seen him do it, not even once.

    Let us now sing the praises of Remley:

        La la,
        La la la,
        La La Remley la la.


                              CHAPTER 2

    Not everybody feels about Remley the same way I do.  I think some
    folks are really too fussy.  They'll point to his less than
    perfect verb conjugations, or his tendency to say sentences
    backwards.  I mean, big deal.  As if this had anything to do with
    the essence of Remley.


                              CHAPTER 3

    Remley took a trip to Mexico once.  He liked it a lot, especially
    the bottled water.

                              CHAPTER 4

    The End.

That's okey.
Erm, okay.  I hate hiting Enter before I'm done correcting typos on
one line!

I don't feel about Remley the way you do, either.

But there was more, for secretly, Remley was telekinetic.  One day,
he will return to mexico, and we will sing his praises forever.
La la la la remley.

Ahh!  It *was* the butler!  (in the kitchen, with the candlestick)
That's what happens when the paraffin is contaminated...
