Sign posted at the entrance..."Welcome to our Ool..notice there is no 'P' in it. Please keep it this way."

Please notice that this is a quintuple sized Olympic-style swimming pool. There are two slides and two tubes one each located on each corner of the pool. Also note the three-tier diving platform. There are also two low-pressure water cannons located on either end of the pool for taking aim at 'targets' in the pool.

Scuba diving is allowed as long as you are properly certified (or certifiable ;) ). Cannonballs are a must. [img]smile.gif[/img] And the pool comes equipped with heaters and waterjets at the shallow end.

Cheeto dispensers are available at each lounge chair and are always fully stocked. Marshmallow floats are in the large bin next to the house. And a fully stocked wet bar is at the southern end of the pool attached to the north side of the pool house. It is stocked with juices, teas, lemonades and colas. Only adults have access to anything stronger. ;) And use the intercom next to the wet bar if you want anything to eat brought up from the house.

Well, you ARE certifiable. [img]tongue.gif[/img] As long as you have the proper equipment, scuba away! :D

yes, thats right, i am Certifiable-American, arent i? *puts on his wetsuit and other scuba gear and begins to swim downward* this mask is getting really tight...

*sitting on the towel* ok where's the tube?

Well, the tubes are the ones on the Northwest and the Southeast corners of the pool. The others are just regular slides.

*sits in the nearest lounge chair and procures a cheeto from the dispenser*

Wheehee!!!! :D *jumps onto tube and whooshes down slide* SPLASHHHH!!!!! [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] heehee

Good morning, everybody!! I brought my rubber ducky, waterwings, flip flops and my Chester Cheetah blow up Poolside Doll. Don't push me into the pool, I need time to get used to the water temp.

Your sister, Kaz, is our cook.

weeheehee!!! Thanx mum!!! [img]smile.gif[/img] *scrambles away as Uncle Hiram gets out of the pool*

*Sephiroth scuba dives waaay far down* BOOM!!! *his goggles explode, making a big black circle around his eyes. He quickly floats back up to the surface, trying to hide his face the whole time.

iS THIS THE MAD HOUSE??????

AAGGGGHhhhaaaaaaaa

All these immature children.......

Azure laughs uproariciously at Hirams flounderings in the pool and watches as the bedraggled little man climbs out with a sad looking soggy bag of cheetos.
"Hiram." says Azure
Hiram of course looking up at the mention of his flatulent name watched as a bootheel was planted on his mile wide forehead and he was pushed back into the water for another dunking.

*gets on the slide and heads down* WHEEEEEE

<h3>SPLASH!!</h3>
*sputters*
Ihave a question.... who gets the mail and grocery shopping?

~Hiram screams like a little girl and flails about yelling "Frazza Frazza who put the bop in the bop she bop she bop?" His little dwarven legs do frantic kicking motions while the water surrounding him turns yellowish orange and you discover that it't not of a cheesy origin.

James is enjoying himself playing ping-pong with his coat, awaiting any intercom calls. The new suits his mother sent are hanging in the closet, but his new coat can certainly swing a bat. It's 12-6 for James

*Sir Byronas enters the Pool Party* Can I join DM? But please don't tell it to anyone. I have a reputation as a Paladin.

any coffee going? my carafe broke this morning while performing the sacred making of the bean juice ritual, not a salubrious beginning. Guess I'll have to do a belly-dive down the tallest slide, look out below!

Oooooh! Cannons! Hmmmmmm..... Let me see now, where's Byronas? *Looks around and spots Byronas removing his standard issue Keldorn's Order armor and aims a water cannon at him* Hey Byronas! *Gives Byronas a blast of water that knocks him into the pool* Heheheh, got him! Hmmm.... I wonder if this cannon can be "modified" a bit...... *Starts examining the cannon to see if it can be adjusted to fire anything else than water*

You terrible #@^&%^*($*(&%^^ child I will make you pay for that! *Sir Byronas quickly takes out his new 200000 watergun and points it to Neb* Any last words before you go to Mars!

Yep, I've got some last words, *points the new and modified "water" gun at Byronas* Eat pudding Holyboy! *Sets the gun to "auto-fire" points it at Byronas, quickly puts on scuba gear and jumps into the pool*

After showering and showing up again, Hiram sees a knight all covered in pudding. He is stuttering and stomping with impotent rage. Hiram looks up at a sorceror dude who has modified one of the low pressure pumps. Just as Neb points the water/pudding cannon his way, Hiram scampers off to the Solarium and sits down next to Breanna.

Well, hello there brother o mine! :D Did you have a nice swim???

Looks like Neb's up to tricks again as usual. [img]smile.gif[/img] I think I'll ring James and ask for some of the lovely savory tarts that I had the cook prepare for this party. Nice little quiche tarts and some crab puffs.

*Goes over to intercom to put in request to James, then comes back to chat with Hiram*

Adam Warlock - Hiya! [img]graemlins/wavey.gif[/img] Gee, I guess the butler probably gets the mail, unless the kids feel like running down that loooooooong driveway. As to grocery shopping. Hmmmm....I think the cook does that. But as she's having computer problems, she may need a bit of help with that. ;) Would you like those tasks (which would give the others a break)??

*Neb stealthily scuba dives over to the edge of the pool, reaches one hand over the edge and closes it around DM's ankle, he then pulls her into the pool and swims off to the other side, FAST*

Waheeey! Pool Party!
Grabs Deiters leafblower/cannon and dives into the pool with several cartons of rotten eggs! :D

Just as he was about to score his fifteenth point a voice came over the intercom. He put away his bat and washed up, put on his green-and-white-flowered bermudas and ran over to the kitchen to get some of those nice little quiche tarts and some crab puffs Kaz had prepared for this party. He also grabbed a bag of cheetos to refil the dispenser and used the servant's shortcut to emerge near the bar.
Two questions floated through the butler's head: Will I stay dry and Will I get these cheetos in the dispenser before Hiram spots me. Double No.

*Stealthily, the water ninja creeps from the pool, he sneaks up on his unsuspecting target, raises his lethal weapon and strikes the butler with....... a super-sized water balloon* Gotcha! *After shouting his fierce battlecry that heralded the defeat of an enemy, the water ninja runs off at high speed before anyone realizes what has happened, the water ninja removes his ninja-like clothing and reveals his true identity.....* I am Neb, last of the water ninjas! *Performs cool kung-fu-ish moves, slips on a soggy cheetoh and falls into the pool*

Hiram wanders over to a cheeto dispenser that Dragonmage said is always full. We all know that we can trust Dragonmage, right? He then salivates in anticipation of the orgasmic escstacy that is contained within a cheeto.

He thinks back to the very first cheeto he had while a toddler. He had 3 teeth and was ready to use them. His mother gave him a cheeto and at first he just tried to cram it into his ear. Since it would not fit, he tried to stick it up his nose, which was running, of course. He then smelled the cheesy goodness and giggled with glee. The first bite wasn't really a bite as much of a frantic gumming. One of the teeth made contact and Hiram heard the echo travel through his head. An explosion of cheesy wonder zipped through his small frame. It traveled everywhere from his sparsely hair covered head to his tiny toes. Saliva ran freely down the tike's mouth and onto the bib he constantly had on. The Cheeto was gone!! He looked at his orange hand and then looked suddenly to his left and then to the right. The high chair was keeping him from having another. He knew that they came from mom and only she could release him from this need for cheese. "Just another" he thought as he yelped and cried. "Brah Brah greeble snort" he yelled with as much indignance he could muster.

Hiram chuckled to himself and reached for the cheeto dispenser. Alas and alack, it was empty. He stopped short of hyperventilating somehow and began his Hirsute Hiram Dance of Dire Cheeto Need.

Which was when James stepped up to make sure the dispenser would be full again. He took extreme care in not letting the cheetos get soggy due to water dripping from all over him. James fled back to the ping-pong table for another match with coat.

Spluttering and splashing, Breanna makes it to the side of the pool.

"OH! That BOY!!!! Really!!! And I was all nice and toasty warm from the sun, too!" Breanna makes her way carefully around the pool and laughs as she sees her revenge taken for her by Fate as Neb slips on a cheeto and falls in. "Well, that'll teach him to mess with 'Momma'." She then flips the switch to turn on the pool vacuum to rid the pool of the rotten eggs Lucre took in with him. Once it sucks up the last egg, it turns on Lucre (it's enchanted, don't ya know).

Breanna goes back to the bar area to have some munchies. "Thank you, James." And thank you for having the forsight to bring Cheetos for the dispenser. Hiram was looking a bit peaked. Perhaps, when Uncle Hiram is about, you should increase the fill rate - that or bring 'round a dump truck full and just leave it parked by the pool entrance."

"Now, I think I'll go for a nice swim." Heads back to the pool.

[ 11-14-2001: Message edited by: DragonMage ]</p>

Hiram lays on floor beneath the cheeto dispenser and does not notice Breanna's special 3 piece bathing suit replete with tassels, bangles, and stars. All he knows is cheetos. He reaches up and lets loose a couple of pounds of cheetos at once. He is interupted only as he feels someone tickling his feet.

Neb climbs out of the pool, scrapes the crunched soggy cheetoh of the bottom of his foot, and decides that maybe he should stop with the pranks for a while, "Anyone up for a game of beach volley?" He shouts, pointing to a large area of warm clean sand next to the pool, "I'll set up the net."

*Sir Byronas runs as fast as he can to take his new water-saber!* I will show you now Neb! Come on grab your water-saber and come to fight like a man!

Since someone left the intercom on, the sounds of battle reach James' ears. How about it coat? I bet you ten dollars Neb's in for a buttkicking session...

*walks over to the edge of the pool and peers in*

Hiram sneaks behind Adam and nudges him/her into the pool. He then scampers off because he is prone to scampering.
