“You will be executed by crucifixion” she says drily “but I wouldn’t worry. I entered you on your "Crux Humor by Messaline" threads. I can’t picture you being nailed to a cross for any of that crap.”
I think I should be comforted by that… I think…

She may regret this...Lovely foliage! I mean the leaves, not the Tree!
She may regret this...
“What happens if I win” I ask.
Better Wragg than me. How anyone manages to be a lover of Joan...Barbara has a meeting with Chancellor Despard Wragg VIII and his assistant (and lover) Joan Tree. It is an informal meeting so Barb dresses accordingly.
I'm very informal. What I don't understand is why Barb is wearing more than I am.
I'm just trying to level the playing field, so to speak.Hey!!!!! Get your bony fingers out from under my bra strap!!!!
And I was there, and Wragg, and Messaline, and...View attachment 550526 Who the fuck are all these people? And why am I naked? I must either be in Kansas or in a Tree story! Aunt Em, help!!!!
You are having way too much fun with the new emojis.You get
a prize!
Oh, wait a minute, Try again, Wragg!
You get
a prize!

Why not?You are having way too much fun with the new emojis.
There seems to be a lot that Tree doesn’t understand here, which makes me wonder who is writing this story? And don’t tell me it’s the Rodent!I must admit I am a bit bewildered with what is going on here. Usually the contestants are kept in comfortable surroundings if somewhat scantily clothed as demonstrated by Messa.

But things are not always what they seem to be. Just the other day Tree was reading the newspaper (yes he can read) and came across an article headlined with a large picture of a few bison grazing on a plain in front of some rugged mountains. The headline read an oil company wanted to build a refinery next to a national park. Now why the hell would they want to do that Tree wondered until he read the story and found the refinery would be relatively small, three miles from the eastern edge of the park, and built to the most current standards while being invisible from the park. The buffalo wouldn’t even know it was there! But perhaps Tree is off the story line a bit…
Usually the women that don’t make it to the final round are released to perhaps compete another day but not this year! Here the last seven have been noosed and hanged one at a time before a crowd of a hundred (paying) spectators. Dorothy Brown is the last of this group and has watched the others gasp and struggle as they were hanged.

I do hope she puts on a good show when she is hanged! She did of course…

…I thought her eyes were going to pop out of her head! They didn’t but it looked like they would.
This leaves us with our last seven ‘contestants’. They are being led up to hear the results.

I hope this goes well but still don’t understand what seven crosses made of premium French crucifixion wood that were brought from the Hill of 100 Crosses™ are waiting outside the abbey’s gate…
