...and did a search for...THE SWEDISH BIKINI TEAM!!!! After realizing that the gals only liked people who didn't drive Chevrolet products, he wisely refined his search to film exhibition issues. He designed a sight where film types could get together and bitch at each other to the point where they all realized that they were after the same end result. The people who manufactured the film stock got to talk with the people who trashed (um, projected) it everyday. The people who had sound systems issues got to talk with the people who actually built them. Even more than that, new guys got to talk to folks who had been showing movies for years. They learned a lot. Most importantly (political correctness) we learned that nine out of ten Americans prefer the Nintendo 64 over the Play Station! Brad looked upon creation and said "This is good". But he still wasn't happy, so he..........

this made manual changeovers obsolete! He simply could not believe it. A simple rub rub rub of the mighty ointment turned his second machine into a sparkling new Kinoton platter. No amount of fluid removal ointment could bring back his prescious second machine. What had he done? What would become of poor Steve? What's more...he found that (apart from making him an instant hit with the chicks due to the ointment's musky-man-scent fragrance) it also removed any evidence of changeover cues!This could not be happening! A quick further search using the www.ineedtodoachangeoverrealbad.com search tool found that any evidence of either of the words 'change' or 'over' had been removed from the search results! Believing this could only be the work of the crafty-evil-doing-John-Boy-Wilson and his croneys he immediately leapt onto the platter and with a mighty tug...

Into the dark pitch black booth where then all of the sudden BAM! KERPLUNK! DOINK! (Batman Style action) knocks Steve out unconcious with an 35ss Neumade Splicer. 2 Days later Steve is to awake tied down to one of the Gigantic IMAX platters Only to see the face of Brad hovering over talking to the manager. Steve can only slightly over hear what they are saying;"Do you have the device I requested?" Asked Brad. "Yes we do, It took pulling some strings but here it is"*evil mad scientist laughter* "Very well then we shall commense....You should of agreed with me earlier Steve! I was right all along. With this device everyone in the world will finally know that platters are superior and will soon rule the world and then dominate all booths in the world! No more Changeovers as this plan will destroy them all! *evil laughter* Then, with this device I will automate all platters to obey me and everything that I say and command. Then soon I will rule over the world. *more evil mad scientist laughter* and all you can do is lie there and watch as platters will begin to dominate. Then when I am finished you sir, shall be destroyed *suspenseful music* "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! You will be stopped! Cried Steve. "How?" Brad Questioned. "I dont know?" Replied Steve. The Igor looking manager begins to laugh as well. "well done master" as his hump in his back moves around to different locations via Young Frankenstein. Together Brad and the Igor like manager drink to a toast of film-guard and then as he pushes the green start button....... ------------------ --"That's my story and i'm sticking to it!"--

... top of Ringo Starr's head killing him instantly! The mighty Pytlak's jaw drops. "My god! What have I done!?" Brad merely shrugs as he goes for the switch. John reverts back into superhero mode arms akimbo as he warns Brad, "Don't even think about it!""But I must! Guttag must pay for his narrow-mindedness! And pay he shall at the hands of the very thing he hates most!" Then Steve shouts, "Look out!" But John turns around right as Igor, now having recovered from the static electrical shock, strikes John in the face with a flourescent bulb detonating glass all around him and blinding our superhero! John stumbles amidst the bulb remnants hands at his eyes. Brad smiles his infamous shit eating grin and turns to Steve. "I hope you haven't grown too attached to your limbs, Steven. Oh well. It's been REEL!" Brad laughs his diabolical laugh and reaches for the START button. His finger just inches away. "So long King if the Cues." He depresses the button! But at that exact moment the power to the entire booth shuts down! When only the light fixtures are powered back up, we see standing at the breaker box none other than...
