Golf Lessons/How to Get a Hole in One

US Europe
I was practicing all the time, but my golf game just wasn't improving. No matter how much I practised, I struggled to improve my golf score and couldn't even dream of getting a hole in one.
A friend recommended that I see a golf coach he knew, and I figured it couldn't hurt. I heard about a pair of professionals through a friend that could guarantee results fast.
I went to our meeting place, expecting a middle-aged guy in ugly pants. That...wasn't what I got. I went to the place I had arranged to meet my new caddies to find a curious duo.
Monkey: "Hi, you can call me Monkey. I'm going to show you some tricks to improve your score." "Ook! I'm Monkey and I'm here to teach you how to improve your score."
Mandrill: "Hellooo! I'm a mandrill. I help Monkey out sometimes." "and Mandrill show you how to get strong!"
I thought about asking for their qualifications, but before I knew it, I was showing them my swing. It was unusual to say the least but I showed them a couple of my practice swings.
Monkey: "Great form! You just need to work on your timing." "Nice form! You just need to work on your timing," said the monkey.
Mandrill: "And REAL golfers can hit a ball no matter what. Even if it's moving. Fast." "Golfer think only hitting stopped ball is good training?" asked the large mandrill, "Mandrill teach better technique!"
Monkey: "See that whale that kinda looks like an island out there? When I give you the cue, swing toward that." "Focus on what whale by the island over there," instructed the monkey, "follow my signal and concentrate on your timing."
Mandrill: "And remember that it's not about power. Listen for Monkey's cue, and time your swing on that." "Power nothing without timing. Monkey say, golfer do!" the mandrill explained.
Monkey: "Oo kiiii. ♪" I tried to take note of their informative if unconventional golfing instruction.
Golf ball: *clunk* "Ooky!" "Whoosh!" "Plop!"
Mandrill: "Not bad. But anyone can get one lucky shot. You're gonna have to practice, and practice hard!" "Mandrill think that was lucky hit. Lucky golfer can not do every time. Less luck, more practice!"
And that was the day my REAL golf education began... From that day, I got better and better at getting a hole in one.

Industrial Espionage/Screwbot Secrets

US Europe
At a secret hideout in an undisclosed location under a heavy veil of mystery and darkness... Somewhere, at a secret hideout...
Leader: "All right, tell me what you've discovered in your surveillance." "Ok, minion! Tell me what your spying revealed."
Spy: "Of course. The factory has begun production on a top-secret, extremely advanced new design. I've confirmed at least two different models, the larger one approximately 200 feet tall and weighing about 60,000 tons. The final phase of assembly is when they screw the head to the body. This is tricky, and if it's done wrong, the robot has to be scrapped. The workers on that part of the line are pretty tense, obviously, so they've been playing some soothing music to help with the work. When each robot is completed, it says a code phrase and the heart symbol on its chest glows with appreciation." "Yes, boss. The factory has a top secret robot development programme in operation. The design for two different robots are already being put into production. The robots are 40 metres tall and weigh approximately 30,000 tonnes. The production line terminates in a large arm which screws down the robots' heads fast and tight. This operation is extremely precise and the robots become inoperable if it is not completed correctly. The operators require nerves of steel in order to prevent a massive robot scrap pile. I noticed that the factory constantly plays the same Arabian-style music. Operating the machines in time to the music appears to make the job easier than it seems at first glance. Upon completion, the robots signal that they are operational using code words and a heart-shaped glow comes from their chests. The sight of the successfully completed robots seems to encourage the machine operators to maintain their work quality."
Leader: "I see...so the music is how they've kept production so high. We'll need to stop that somehow if we're going to beat them. All right. Go continue your surveillance. Alert me to any changes." "I see...So, the key to their success is in the music. We must understand it if we are to have any chance of beating them. We must analyse the data further and develop a counter plan against that factory. You must go back to the factory and find out the secret to that rhythm."
Spy: "Understood. And if I'm discovered, you'll extract me from the enemy factory full of 200-foot robots right? ...Right?" "As you wish, boss."

Partners/See-Saw Inspectors

US Europe
See: "Hey, Saw." "So, Mr Saw..."
Saw: "What's up, See?" "What's up, Mr See?"
See: "How many years have we been working together?" "How long have we been partners?"
Saw: "Let's see...It was two years before I got married, so that's...10 years." "Well, let's see... We met two years before you got married, so it must be 10 years."
See: "That long already! Time really does fly." "Can it really be that long?! Time flies when you're having fun."
Saw: "Just think: 10 years of 'een-oon, ba-bom.'" "Yeah, and to think we've been saying the same things every day for 10 years..."
See: "Woooow...I'm amazed that I'm still not sick of it." "Every day for 10 years... Will we ever get bored?"
Saw: "Seems like I've been falling on my rump more and more lately...Sorry about that, See." "Dunno. I'm sorry for all the times you ended up on your behind."
See: "Hey, I've been the one falling onto my head for those handstand jumps. I'm the one who should apologize, Saw." "And I'm sorry for all the times you landed on your face!"
Saw: "No, no. I fall on my bum WAY more. I'm sorry." "I think I caused you more falls than you caused me." "It's no problem, my head is less delicate than your behind."
See: "But my head smashes are way creepy, so I'M sorry." "Really? Are you sure you didn't get whiplash?"
Saw: "So hey, how is your neck, anyway?" "I'm fine. Are you sure it doesn't hurt when you sit down?"
See: "It's OK. How about you, Saw? Your bum's not sore or anything?" "There hasn't been a see-saw that has beaten my bottom yet."
Saw: "Nah. Thanks, though." "I'm glad I found a see-saw inspector as good as you."
See: "Say, the kids'll be showing up to play at the park pretty soon." "Before we have an awkward silence, we've got to finish testing these see-saws before all the kids show up!"
Saw: "We better get to work, then, keeping them off this unsafe seesaw. Heh." "Now you're talking! I'll never get tired of this job!"

My Feelings

US Europe
I've always wanted to learn the guitar but never had the nerve to try. I decided to take up the guitar and headed to the local music shop.
When I finally did get up the courage, I found that SHE worked at the local music shop. That was when I first saw her.
She told me I had nothing to be afraid of, that playing guitar was simple. Easy for her to say-- everyone knows her band is big in Japan. She was in the year above mine and already had a band which had won several competitions. I heard she'd even been approached by a famous music producer.
I didn't have enough money to buy one that day, but she let me try out a guitar and showed me some chords. I hadn't saved enough pocket money to buy a guitar but I headed to the shop and she let me try one out.
I came back a lot over the next six months while I saved up my allowance. I went to the shop a lot after that. She was so helpful and her knowledge about guitars blew me away.
Now I've bought my guitar, I've started a band, and I'm practicing a lot. I even wrote a song for her. Six months later I had bought that guitar, practised every day and even formed my own band. I just had to let her know my feelings for her with one of my own songs.
Only problem is I can't bring myself to play it for her. So instead, I'll invite her to our first live show. But there was no way I could sing to her until I had learned to play better. And then it all seemed to fall into place. My band got its first gig and I hoped that she would come to watch us.
After school, we sat on a bench together while I tried to work up the courage to give her the ticket I got her. I went to tell her after school and took her a ticket in my trembling hands. We sat down outside and chatted about school but I had trouble telling her about my gig.
My throat was parched, and my mind was racing. For some reason, some weasels were looking at us... Each time I tried to pluck up the courage to ask her to come a ball would fly out of nowhere and ruin the moment. If that wasn't enough, I had a pair of ferrets making a racket in front of me too!
And then a strange thing happened. A soccer ball came at us, and I reflexively gave it a good kick. Strangely, the more balls I kicked away, the more confident I got.
It felt great! It calmed me down too. Even the weasels seemed happy. So I started kicking away my feelings... Maybe it was something about my kicking to the rhythm but the ferrets seemed to calm down too. I was sure this was the perfect moment to tell her how I feel...

First-Day Orientation/An Upbeat Business Strategy

US Europe
*cough* (Excuse me.) First of all, let me welcome and congratulate all of our... *ah-CHOO* new employees. Achoo! Ahem... Good morning ladies and gentlepigs. Congratulations on becoming the newest members of our organisation!
Next, I need to tell you the most important thing you can know about working at our company: Before you start working in this prestigious company, I would like to give you some important advice.
Wherever you are, whatever you do here, from the assembly line to Accounts Payable, remember to mind the flow. No matter what we do, in this company, we are always upbeat! This is at the forefront of our business strategy.
For proof, consider our executives seated there. They all came from humble origins but rose to the top because they embrace flow. Even when times are tough, we believe success can always be achieved by keeping upbeat. The board came to realise its importance through a lot of hard work and spinning themselves.
If you want to climb the ladder here, you've gotta develop your flow! If you want to make it far in this company, you should make being upbeat your priority too!
All right, everyone. Stand up and repeat after me: So, everybody stand up and join me in squealing.
One! Start the spin smoothly and flow to a halt. Two! At lunchtime, season freely with flowing pepper and salt. "All together now! Be upbeat! Turning ourselves around helps us turn profits round!"
*Ahhh-CHOOOOO!* (Excuse me.) A...aaaah...chooooooooo!

Baxter & Forthington/Quick and Slow

US Europe
High above the Rhythm Islands... High above the Rhythm Islands, a blue and red plane could be seen flying in tight formation.
Forthington: "Hey, Baxter, you hear about the new doughnut shop? You can get a doughnut covered in marshmallows, candy, and tiny little doughnuts!" "Hey, Quick! I heard a new doughnut shop opened up recently. It's supposed to be the cat's whiskers!"
Baxter: "Ugh. I'll pass. There's such a thing a restraint, you know." "Huff! I doubt that."
Forthington: "Come on, let's just check it out. Live a little!" "You can't say that until you try it at least once for yourself. You might regret it!"
Baxter: "Forthington, I'm not going to repeat myself. If you want to go wallow in lard, you can go by yourself, glutton." "Slow! How many times? You're barking up the wrong tree! If you like it so much, just go by yourself, you fat greedy puss!"
Forthington: "What did you call me?! Oh, that's it, Mr. Leafy Greens! Eat THIS!" "How dare you! See how you like eating this!"
With a mighty THWACK, Forthington launches the birdie at Baxter's face. Slow launched the shuttlecock at Quick's face with a 'whoosh'!
Baxter: "Hrmph. Gotta do better than that, glaze breath." Baxter smacks the birdie right back a Forthington. "Pah!"

Quick hit it back in a flash.

Forthington: "It looks like this old dog knows some tricks, but how will you cope if I change up the distance?" "It looks like the old dog know some tricks, but how will you cope at a distance?"
Forthington accelerates toward the horizon and then belts the Birdie at Baxter. *THWACK!* Slow accelerated towards the horizon and then belted the shuttlecock at Quick.
Baxter: "So soft and sweet. Just like those doughnuts you like!" *THWACK!* "Your racket paw is as weak as your willpower when it comes to doughnuts," Quick taunted as he hit the projectile back.
The rally continues for over twenty minutes. Twenty minutes later the rally was still going on...
Forthington: "OK, for an old dog with no taste, you're actually pretty good at air badminton!" "Meahaha! For an old dog with no taste, you are still a connoisseur when it comes to badminton shots!"
Baxter: "You're not so bad for a sour puss either. Whew! That was a workout! I could eat a salad bar!" "You're not so bad for a sour puss either!" Another twenty minutes later...

"I exercised so much I could eat a horse!"

Forthington: "Hey, I've got an idea. Why don't we go to the doughnut shop?" "I've got an idea, why don't we head on over to that doughnut shop?"
Baxter: "..." "..."
Forthington: "Come on, Baxter. Doughnuts covered in tiny doughnuts. You know you want one." "Come on, Quick! You'll love it!"
Baxter: "All right..." "Well, alright then."
The two planes bank across each other's paths, making surprisingly doughnut-shaped vapor trails as they fly off for a well-deserved snack. The two planes banked across each other's paths forming a perfect doughnut-shaped vapour trail in the sky as they headed off for a well-deserved snack.

Picky Eaters' Song/The Picky Eaters Song

US Europe
I am called the Wandering Samurai, due to my devotion to the samurai code of Bushido and my generally poor sense of direction. The lone samurai continues his endless journey onwards.
~As the sun dips below the horizon, the Wandering Samurai rests his weary body on the grounds of an old temple.~ Eventually the samurai came across a temple and decided to take shelter from the heat of the morning sun.
"I'm so very tired from all the wandering I did today..." ~Before he is even aware of it, the samurai is asleep and dreaming...~ His eyelids began to feel heavy and it did not take long before he fell fast asleep under a large tree. As he lay snoring in the shade, a counting song from his childhood came back to him...
♪ One onion. Can't eat it! Two tubers. Mmm! Love it ! Three three-bean salads. Can't eat it!♪ One - I like buns

Two - I don't like stew

Three - I like peas

♪Four fortune cookies. Mmm! Love it! Five flying fish. People eat those? ♪ Four - I don't like rice balls

Five - I live chives

♪Six sticks of butter. Mmm! Love it! Seven celery sticks. Can't eat it! ♪ Six - I don't like figs

Seven - I like cinnamon

♪Eight egg rolls. Mmm! Love it! Nine nice noodle dishes. Can't eat it! ♪ Eight - I don't like skate

Nine - I like brine

♪And ten tennis balls. Not food. ♪ Ten - I don't like ramen...
"Son, if you are so picky about food, you'll never grow up to be a proper samurai!"

"Yes, Mother!"

"An honourable samurai never lets food go to waste," his mother scolded.

"Yes, mother," the young samurai dutifully replied...

When I wake, the sun is high in the sky. Standing nearby are two children. The boy holds a pinwheel, the girl a rice ball. The lone samurai awoke from his dream to find the sun had risen high in the sky. He soon noticed two young kids approaching with a toy windmill and a rice ball.
"Mama said this was for you."

My stomach growls as my eye meets the rice ball.

"I am indebted to you." I gratefully accept the rice ball.

"Our mummy told us to give you this."

The samurai's stomach let out a loud growl at the sight of the expertly-made rice ball.

"Thank you," the samurai said as he took the rice ball.

It is delicious. Just like Mother used to make. He bit into it and was filled with more memories of his mother's cooking. He wondered how he would be able to repay their kindness to him.

Angling Profiles/Fishing Monthly

US Europe
Master Fisherperson Ann Glerr presents: Fishing Tips with Master Fisherperson Ann Glerr Expert's Corner

This month's Expert's Corner features tips from Ann Glerr.

Ann Glerr here with some fishing tips! Let's start with the small fry: Hi everyone! I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce three fish species to you today.
The Quicknibble is an adorable little orange fish with no sense of self-preservation whatsoever. It'll usually taste your bait twice then just bite onto it, at which point you can simply yank it out of the water. First, let's start with the cute Gulper. You have to watch out for this small orange fish because they don't wait around after nibbling your bait.
The Pausegill, on the other hand, is a cautious fish. It generally invests in mutual funds and treasury bills. Also, it waits a beat after tasting the bait before biting. I don't know why it bothers--it's not like it ever checks the bait and goes "Nah." The Little Waiter may have a vacant stare but don't let that fool you. The key to hooking one is waiting briefly for it to bite.
Finally, there's the creepy Threefish. This intimidating guy likes to check the bait thoroughly with his tongue. After the check, he likes to give the worm a count of three to let the fear set in... then he strikes! Finally, the king of fish is the Big Teaser. They use their long tongues to tease their prey. When you see the float move, try counting to three before striking. However, if they get away you'll find their deep laugh sounds quite suave and sophisticated!
I hope these tips will help you land a big one next time you're out! Ann Glerr signing off! One final tip, fishing is all about rhythm. So try to stick to the beat whenever you see a fish bite!

Good luck fishing, everybody!

Expedition Journal

US Europe
April 16

Today, our expedition team is set to arrive at our destination. It's strange, though... No matter how many steps forward we take, we seem to be right back where we started. Am I just imagining things?

16th April

The expedition team should make it to our goal today... However, no matter how much progress we make, it feels as if we are going round in circles.

We are already behind schedule by several hours. If we fall even further behind, we might not even make it at all...

The Captain is as icy-faced as ever. If he's worried, he's not showing it in the slightest.

April 20

We ran into a major storm that made it difficult to move and impossible to see. I thought our one-flipper-roll strategy probably wasn't going to cut it, so I went to the captain, hoping he'd reconsider our tactics. He just said, "Good joooob!" After a moment, he added, "Nice!" ...I guess I just have to trust the captain...

20th April

The team has been hampered by a violent snowstorm that could freeze an exposed snout in seconds. We had difficulty practising our single flipper rolls, so I asked the Captain if we could change our training strategy. The Captain just replied in his usual loud voice, "Mmm! Aah!" so I hope we can trust him.

April 21

The one-flipper-roll strategy was a failure. I thought it was time to deploy our ultimate weapon. I went to the captain and said, "It's time to try the ten-flipper-roll strategy!"

In a strong, yet reassuring voice, he told me "Well done!"

I believe in our captain.

21st April

Our flipper rolls were a complete failure. We didn't make any headway at all. We are starting to lose our strength and motivation. Even so, we finally managed to do ten flipper rolls together!

The Captain gave us his strongest "Yes! Good job!"

I'm sure he won't let us down.

April 22

Then ten-flipper-roll strategy left the entire expedition team dizzy and disoriented.

"Captain, what should we do?!" My voice echoed across the frigid tundra. And then I heard his strong, reassuring voice:

"That's it!"

Ca-Captain...really?

I...I believe in our captain.

22nd April

Today it was so bright, it felt like as if even the sun was mocking our flipper progress. We practised so many ten flipper rolls that I couldn't even see straight any more.

Captain! How much more of this training do we have to suffer?

...do we have to suffer?

...do we have to suffer?

Perhaps I shouldn't have shouted so loud as the echoes rang out over the polar waste.

But then the Captain said, "Well done!"

I hope he means it this time...

Birds of the Universe

US Europe
Did everyone have a refreshing break? Wonderful! Let's continue our tour of the planet of the Huebirds... Welcome to another edition of Birds of the Universe. Today, we've got quite a selection to show you.
Ah, here we see a typical morning commute for these colorful creatures. Note that, even in a dense crowd, they move in perfect harmony. The prettiest of all space birds has to be the Huebird. Let's see how they start their day. Rush hour starts early on their colourful planet.
Er...mostly. Excuse me! Please don't push! Someone could get hurt! Excuse me! But even in large groups, they move in harmony...most of the time.
"Tweet, twe-twe-tweet, squawk!" What was that? Does anyone in the group by any chance speak Huebird? "It's looking pretty crowded already. Hey, everybody! Stop pushing, it's dangerous!" "Tweet! Tweet! Squawk!" It doesn't seem as if they are paying any attention.
Now, please! Please, let's try to keep things orderly! "Tweet, twe-twe-tweet, tweet, squawk!" I don't understand! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?! "Don't you birds have any manners? Stop pushing!" "Tweet! Tweet! Squawk!" Can anybody speak Huebirdish? "Hey! Someone could get hurt! Please line up patiently!" "Tweet! Tweet! Squawk!" I'm sure they're not paying attention on purpose now.
Ahem. let's continue our tour, shall we? As I was saying, the Huebirds are lovely creatures with their own ideas about order. "Hey, you! The pretty bird, yes...you, line up properly!" "Tweet! Tweet! Tweet! Tweet! Tweet! Squawk!" That's more like it. These birds have behaved the same way for generations. They are sometimes a little selfish but they all walk to the same beat.
Next, we'll be examining an altogether different species, the Eloquent Tapir, who I'm sure you all will enjoy conversing with. Next time we will look at Blue Birds. Enjoy your bird watching!

At the Auditions

US Europe
"I want to be a star!" That was what I thought every minute of every day after I moved to this town. Then I saw the most important flyer on the most important café bulletin board of my life. I had always wanted to become famous and came to this town to try and achieve my dreams! When I saw an audition poster in a cafe, I knew the chance had finally arrived.
The flyer read, "Tap star wanted!" The poster said "Tap Star auditions!"
I knew this was my big chance. On the day of the audition, there were three other young guys waiting with me in the studio. I thought I would have to be the luckiest boy in the world to win the audition and become world famous so easily, but I knew I had to try. I sat waiting nervously with three other young lads waiting for their chance to shine.
There were four gray boxes lined up neatly in a row on a desk in front of us. We had no idea what they were for. A bearded man wearing a yellow box on his head burst into the room with a hearty "Welcome! Welcome!" I noticed a great box placed on a desk in front of me and wondered what it was for. A man carrying a yellow box entered the room and began speaking enthusiastically.
"You guys look great! Long legs, symmetrical heads--you have all the right stuff to become tap stars!" "Welcome! Welcome! Hey, you lads look great! You've got the right look and legs long enough to be the next tap stars!"
"OK, now. Would you all please put these boxes on your heads?" "Let's get started! Would you mind putting the boxes on? This box might look plain but it will make you a star!"
I had a decision to make. Would I put this box on my head and risk looking silly for a chance at stardom? I felt a bit uncertain but put the box over my head.
Of course I would. "YES. Bravo. BRAVO! You made it. You all made the cut!" "Hey! That's it! You all look great! Right, you all passed the audition!"
And that's how I began my climb to tap stardom... From that moment, my career as a tap star really began and I have never looked back.

A Musical Term

US Europe
"I dunno. It's like everyone just decides what it means and passes their judgment and expects me to behave in a certain way. I mean, first of all, it's my name, like my actual, this-is-what-my-birth-certificate-says NAME. It doesn't reflect me as a person. And hey, words can mean more than one thing, you know? Just because the first thing YOU think of is some happy-go-lucky sap doesn't mean...Ugh. I know, I come in here every week and the spend whole session griping about this. You're probably tired of hearing about it by now. Do you ever have problems like this? Do people just look at you and assume that you're into, I dunno, copying what people do?"

"Oookii oook-ook!"

"Right, right. My therapy is about me and my problems, not you. Anyway, thanks for listening. I'll see you next Tuesday for another session of 'Mr. Upbeat's complaints.'"

Note: The UK version is the same, apart from the Monkey's speech being "Oooky oook-ook!" instead, and the British English spelling of 'Mr Upbeat'.

Investigation Notes/Police Memo

US Europe
xx/xx/20xx "It's July through November" was the tip from the mystery man working at the Built to Scale factory. Police Report: We received a tip off from an unidentified man who is apparently working at the widget factory. It said "from July to November".
The "Assembly-Line Slogans" document he wrote looks suspicious. We'll definitely want to investigate that. There's definitely something suspicious about those "Quality Construction Catchwords". We should investigate further.

Final Words

US Europe
Hey, you there! Yes, you! In front of the TV! Congratulations on getting a Perfect on Remix 10! Nicely done! Congratulations! You got a Perfect on Remix 10! Well done!
Oh, and thanks for much for just playing this far into the game! It's always gratifying when someone goes to the trouble, you know? Thank you for playing! We hoped you would make it this far.
We’ve been watching you doing your best, playing real hard. It’s inspiring. It’s always gratifying when someone goes to the trouble, you know?
Did you have fun? Was it hard to get here? Maybe you have friends who say it was easy. How was it for you? Did you find it difficult? You probably know somebody who found it really easy, don't you?
Hmph. Whatever. But don't worry!
But let’s talk about you some more! You probably found your sense of rhythm improving, huh? ...Right? No matter how you found it, your sense of rhythm has probably improved no end. Did you notice a difference?
If you haven’t already done so, you should totally have your friends try out this game. You know there’s a two-player mode, right? Now that you are a rhythm master, you should show your friends how much fun rhythm is too. You know there's a Dual Play mode, don't you?
All right, let’s say it was your destiny to battle and evil wrestler army, and only you could do it. Ever good wrestler has to step up to his destiny of fighting an army of wrestling villains to prevent the global domination of evil.
You might be sad that you had such a rough destiny ahead of you. It's up to you to fulfil your destiny too!
But what if, by battling the evil wrestler army, you could make a lot of people smile? Then you might think, “That’s a pretty good destiny.” Well, your destiny might not be as important as an amazing wrestler's, but just imagine the joy of having a destiny that involves putting smiles on your friends' faces!
That’s all we wanted to say. Hopefully we’ll see you out there again sometime. Enjoy your evening. I hope we will meet in the Ring some day.
