The Boring Story about Bob, Fred and Wally! Part 1!

This is the very boring story about Bob, Fred and Wally. You should probably close this window and go do something more exciting, rather than read this post!

Bob, Fred and Wally were at Wally’s house playing 3D Mahjong when suddenly a pop-up starts flashing across the screen. Wally quickly clicks on it, the three read it aloud,”Are you tired of thinking you are the geekiest geek? well come to The Geekiest Geek Convention at 498756231047A Huckleberry Lane on the Friday 21st!” Fred looked at Bob and Bob looked at Wally and Wally looked at Fred, and somehow something clicked in their brains, so they all pulled their pants up higher, tucked their shirts in more, tightened their suspenders, polished their braces, tightened their multi coloured bowties, pulled up their socks, polished their boots and polished their glasses. They all hopped on their orange and blue segways and sped down the road to the convention, they all started saying the building numbers out loud,”498756231044, 498756231045, 498756231046, 498756231047!” they all turned into the parking lot, immediately their jaws dropped, the parking lot was flooded with different coloured segways and people dressed in the geekiest way possible.

Coming next week is The Boring Story about Bob, Fred and Wally! Part 2!

PSP I-SPY Case and Suspects

The Case

Greetings secret agents, I am Q, BBQ.. that’s right..
Here is your case to solve..

At the windy bottom of zee North Island we find a very arty, musical, and capital, city called Wellington!

It has Beehive, Te Papa, and is home to many great kiwi bands like Fat freddies Drop, ladi 6, Shihad, zee black seeds, and of course we cant forget the film industry giant .. Mr Peter Jackson!!.. But even in this “Wellywood” there is something sinister.. … … … a foot!

Recently and for no apparent reason all the music in the entire world.. stopped.

No CD or MP3 would play.. even the radio just went hiss..

Yes agents it appears the music.. is over!!

But whaaaat caused this tragedy of silence???
Whooo would want to rid the world of beautiful music?
Hoooow could someone steal all the music anyways?
And whyyyy did they do it? Hmmmmm?

The Suspects

One of these suspects is the guilty party.

Good Luck.

 

Big Joe from J.A.M Recordings (Joes Amazing Music)

Big Joe is a dastardly suit wearing music executive who loves the fact he can make or break an artist at the click of his fingers.
Big Joe runs one of New Zealands top recording companies “JAM Recordings”.

He likes to think he runs the entire kiwi music industry, and to be fair he does have almost all of New Zealand’s favourite acts on his books.
Big Joe loves to “discover and create” new artists and has recently decided it is time for NZ to discover a new pop star.
JAM called for auditions and Big Joe sat for days listening to musicians who were dying to be the next big thing.

 

Adrian the Audio Engineer

Adrian is an experienced audio engineer and computer software specialist who works for JAM Recordings in Wellington.
He loves glam metal music and dreams of recording bands like “Poison”, “Motley Crew” or “Skid Row”.
He used to work for “Marmalade Studios” but recently started his own studio called “Plum JAM Studios” and records all of JAM’s artists.
As well as doing the recording and mixing of all this music he is also working on a special assignment for Big Joe.

 

Tom the Tapawai Champ

Tom is a sporting legend.
As captain of the Tawa Tapawai Team and was predicted to lead his team to national victory.
Sadly this did not eventuate and the Twizel Tapawai Team are now the NZ champs.

Tom has also recently started a career in the music industry working for JAM.
Tom has had a number 1 single, but his 2nd release was a complete flop.
He now seems convinced that with the help of his girlfriend his next album will be a giant success.

 

Gabby the Girlfriend

Gabby is a beautiful girl with a beautiful voice.
Gabby has been singing her whole life and when she recently won a big singstar talent competition she decided to give stardom a shot and audition for JAM.
She was nervous about singing alone, but with support she put on a great performance.
Unfortunately Big Joe laughed at the thought of her being a star. His notes on the performance stated she was “ugly” and wore “bad clothes”.
Gabby appears to be a good person with a heart of gold.

 

DJ Redicoolus (& Dogg)

Douglas James, or DJ Redicoolus is the man when it come to NZ hip hop.
Move over Scribe, P Money, & all the rest.. DJ Redicoolus is here!

Redicoolas is essentially a MC who raps over the beats laid down by his side kick “Dogg”.
He has an ego the size of the South Island and is not shy to tell everyone about how cool he thinks he is. He is signed to JAM and considers himself their top artist.

Dogg is almost an extra limb to this character. He follows him around everywhere and adds reinforcing comments to every single thing DJ says. “yea you tell im Redicoolus!” “that’s the trueness”
For the purposes of this investigation, anything that Dogg may or may not have done, will be the responsibility of DJ Redicoolas.

 

Eli from the Electric Candy bars

Eli loves electronic music. If it’s made by a computer or synthesiser then it’s the sound for him.
Eli was a bit of a geek at school, and studied computer engineering and software development at university. When he graduated he locked himself in a basement and started writing & creating electronic music.

He wrote his own software for creating sounds on his midi computer and invented sounds & beats no-one had ever heard before.
A few years later he got signed to JAM and started producing everything from house music to techno to ambient trance.

 

Wendy the Cleaner

Wendy is a talented singer / songwriter / musician who has her sights set on fame. She has wanted to be a professional musician since the age of 4 when she started her piano training.
She plays a multitude of instruments, but normally writes using the piano or guitar.

For years and years Wendy has been knocking on the doors of the NZ music industry but no-one has ever offered to let her in.

Wendy got a job as a cleaner in the JAM building in the hope she would meet some contacts who could help her dreams come true.

 

Nana the Neighbour

Nana is an elderly woman in her 80s.
Her real name is actually “Nana” and her grandchildren call her “Granny”.

About a year ago Nana sold her big empty family home in Kandalla and moved into a inner city penthouse apartment directly above Plum JAM Studios.
Initially she thought it would be great to live above a Jam factory… as she might even get the odd free jar of breakfast jam.
But she soon discovered that her noisy neighbours were into “modern music” and there’s nothing she hates more than loud boom boom sounds.
Nana has made a nice friendship with the cleaner Wendy who comes to clean up her apartment. She often acts as Wendy’s sound board and listens to all her frustrations. Her advice of course is to forget the whole thing and find a nice man to marry.

 

Shanks the Sports Coach

Sue Shanks is a school sports coach at Tawa College. When she was younger she represented NZ at the world Tapawai championships.. but her team lost by one point.
Since then her lifetime goal has been to coach a Tapawai team capable of becoming world champions.

After years of focused training and coaching Shanks feels confident that her “Tawa Tapawai Team”, with their star player, have finally got what it takes to succeed.

The Hare and the Tortise

‘ >The Tortise and the Hare!(Human version!)The Hare and the Tortoise

    A HARE one day ridiculed the short feet and slow pace of the Tortoise, who replied, laughing: “Though you be swift as the wind, I will beat you in a race.” The Hare, believing her assertion to be simply impossible, assented to the proposal; and they agreed that the Fox should choose the course and fix the goal. On the day appointed for the race the two started together. The Tortoise never for a moment stopped, but went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The Hare, lying down by the wayside, fell fast asleep. At last waking up, and moving as fast as he could, he saw the Tortoise had reached the goal, and was comfortably dozing after her fatigue. Slow but steady wins the race.
