This was "Big Medicine" for Stan, and he couldn't quite believe the "Miracle" at first, but he eventually shouted "One for the Nurses"! and
Nancy gave him some time to practice, along with "Breakfast in Bed," so he could test the "Reality" of the operation,thus helping him to "Reform".

Just then, an *Ominous Stranger* walked in the room. His name tag said *Doctor Moody*, but scuttlebut said he was really *Doctor No*. So, I hear you want to go from a *Tennessee Gentleman* to a *Tennessee Woman*? Stan thought he was dreaming a *Swedish Lullaby*. he said, "No, I'm a *California Classic*!" *Los Angeles*? *San Francisco*! *Miss California*? *Mister Bigun*! *Mister Jean*? *MIster Roberts*! This was going nowhere, so the doctor left in a huff.

Stan thought that "Scandinavian Gal" is one "Hot Babe"! So he decided to make "Bedroom Eyes" at this "Swedish Modern" "Goddess", all while taking some "Adoring Glances" at her "Twin Peaks". Nancy was "Puzzled" and asked Stan, "Aren't you part of the "Transworld"?" Stan couldn't hold back his "Irish Laughter" and told Nancy that he only gets "All Dressed Up" as a "Fancy Woman" on "Ladies Night" for free drinks.

Nancy's *New Vision* of Stan had a *Sudden Impact* in her head of this *Impassioned Man*. She was *Glad* she *Discovered Treasure* with Stan in them *Indian Hills*.

Meanwhile, Don (remember him?) discovered that although he felt like a "Wounded Dragon" the shot by Dan was only a wound of the "Fleshtones", and getting up
said, "I was 'Swept Off My Feet" but I'm "All Right" now " as he petted his "Top Favorite", his dog, Dragonmaster, who had saved his life.

janwax said:Happy birthday, Amazing Don Nebeker!

'Birthday Cheer' Indeed!
and I will add that I sincerely hope he is not reading this--or, that if he is, that he has an amazingly twisted sense of humor.

With Don and Teenybopper saved by the dog
and in honor of the man's birthday
perhaps it's a good time to say
'That's All Folks'

However,
I heard some 'Juicy Rumours' from a 'Little Swiss Miss':

When the 'Crinkled Tissue' appeared, Nancy pushed the 'Panic Button'; the specialists 'Doktor Novikova' and 'Doktor Rodionenko' were flown in and --despite their 'Adept' salvage efforts-- could only offer 'Confirmation' of the obvious:
yes, the 'Transition' was indeed 'Graft' rejection, the 'White Elephant' donor was not a 'Perfect Match' --that new Peter the Great, had become the 'Great Pretender', 'Elephantina'.

epilog
Nancy 'Split Infinity'-- 'Eye Declare' that is no 'Turn On'! --and she was 'Gone with the Wind'
Stan begged for a 'New Beginning' --alas, much like 'Michael' 'Le Roy Jackson' 's nose, the 'Outer Limits' had already been exploited, and then some!
Stan had a 'Golden Opportunity' to develop a 'Worthy' 'Identity'...he was 'Alive and Well' otherwise...but, only 'Time Will Tell'...

Finale:
After reassuring her parents that Teenybopper was indeed ALIVE AND WELL, she and her new FAVORITE BEAU Amazing Don (having bonded while in GILT EDGE BONDs) did take a plane to the LAND DOWN UNDER to soak up rays and BONDI BLUE WAVEs before heading further west for a BROOME SUNSET shared over a bottle of PARVIN'S PINOT.
Deeply happy, Don and his LITTLE SURFER GIRL Teenybopper lived HAPPY-HAPPY ever after........ (or did they???!!!! Mwah ha ha).

Note: This is an alternative ending to Dirtdorphins story on Stan.

Stan knew everything would be back to "Normality" when he would "Stop and Stare" at Nancy's "Bedouin Twins". He once again felt like a "Macho Hombre" as his "Dinky Doodle" was "Standing Proud". Yet he knew this was "Definitely Different", he was "Falling in Love" with this "Swedish Delight".

While in his "Birthday Suit", Stan was "Walking on Air" up to Nancy and his "Anaconda Love" was doing the "Cocka Walk". This "Barefoot Boy" asked Nacy to "Forever and a Day" be his "Barefoot Contessa". When Nancy did a "Whirl Around" to give Stan a "Gentle Reply" "Ali Says Yes" , she was "Nude with Orange" lipstick on. He knew then and there she was the "Perfect Match" for him and his "Irish Eyes are Smiling".

They were "Crazy in Love" and were on "Top of the World". He had found his "Dream Girl" with "Lovely" "Dove's Breast"s
and she had found her "Lover Boy" with a "Moby Dick". It was a "Perfect Union" between two people, some would even call it a "Hollywood Ending".

That is mind-bogglingly hilarious ! However , (the English teacher in me rears her dreadful head) many of you broke the very first rule with blasphemous run-ons and horrific comma splices! It is still too funny for adequate comments! Hurray! Hurray! You all need a Group hug after such exertions of irisian brain power during the coldest months of the year I tip my hat to you.
