CVN Staffers Kidnapped By Aliens

CNN- dateline Cybertown: It was learned late today and verified by our secret sources that 175 CVN writers have been kidnapped and removed to an alien planet named "Spring" in the Andromeda system, nogonnawrite sector.

When contacted for his view of this startling development, jdb_educator noted, between snores, "Same old, same old. It happens every year. And hey, I'm looking for the Cybertown Beach Bum title, myself."

Looking tired, with that rare-but exotic, cat dragged in the river quality, the aging Managing Editor told us, "Look, I just came off of a marathon 12 hour nap. As much as I hate it, I gotta get some work done here.*turns on the heat lamp* Now, if you guys at CNN will lend us some writers, we can get out this Thursday's issue." CNN Management was unresponsive, and unavailable for comment.

CVN secret sources yawningly tried to confirm that Spring Fever has indeed broken out among the captives on Spring planet and they are dropping like alien flies! When asked for comment, Asst. CVN Managing Editor, RkgBiolgst38, found gazing at her garden, was all green thumbs and stated forcefully, that she would "fight" current CVN Managing Editor, jdb_educator, "for the Beach Bum title." Sources now say that this fight could get extremely lazy... Asked about the Spring Fever reportedly spreading on Spring planet among the CVN captives, she nodded and stated that "Spring Fever is highly contagious, but not fatal."

Apathy Crawls Amok

by Divine_Miss_M, Inner Realms, BL: special to CVN

In an effort to capture the, er, rabid malaise squashed by these war reports generated between jdb_educator and Rkgbiolgst38, this reporter attempted to poll CVN and Cybertown residents on the desired outcome. No one cared. Undaunted, this reporter spent hours on sunset beach, before conducting an "Alien on the Street" poll on the planet Spring. Most were unresponsive, those who could actually speak didn't care. There were two actual live-though barely audible- responses! One chauvinistic alien mumbled, "Give it to da broad--she hasn't worked for it." His wife disagreed, wheezing "All jdb does is nap, Rkgbiolgst gardens, for heavens sake!"
