left office near ly 300 year s ago (he had left of his
ow n accor d after claim ing he w as sick of being
?bullied?by Alec Baldw in), they w er e still pr otesting
him . Ther e had been a slew of pr esidents since
then, including but not lim ited too: sever al good pr esidents, the m ost notable being Sally P. Cam pbell
(yes, Sally w as pr esident. It w as said that ever y pr ess confer ence star ted w ith her announcing the
lunch), a tulip, a few anim als ( tw o cats, one m onkey, and a tar antula), a sw eet potato pie, and an Elvis
im per sonator. In hindsight, Nat w ould agr ee w ith som e of the other cam per s that it w as pr obably a bad
idea to br ing under age (or not? debatable) people into a vir tual w ar zone. Oh w ell.

?Can you now ?? Nat said calm ly.
?W HAT?? The pr esident said.
?I don?t know , can you take us hostage?? Nat said.
?UM M , M AY W E TAKE YOU HOSTAGE?? the pr esident said, clear ly confused.
?Thank you for asking pr oper ly. No, you m ay not.?
?Yes you m ay.? said one of the cam per s at the sam e tim e.
?W hat?? Nat asked. ?We don?t w ant to be taken hostage.?
?Yeah, but w e should r ew ar d them for being polite,? the cam per ar gued.
?I guess you?r e r ight,? Nat said w ith a sigh. ?You m ay take us hostage.?
?GREAT.? The pr esident said. ?NOW-?
?Excuse m e, M r. Pr esident,? said one of his guar ds.
?W HAT NOW ?!? The pr esident said ir r itably.
?Well, I don?t r eally w ant to guar d a bunch of gr am m ar ner ds. I m ove the notion that w e don?t take
them hostage.?
?W HAT??
?I second that,? another of the guar ds said.
?I thir d it.? A chor us of four th-ing and fifth-ing and et ceter a cam e fr om the other tanks.
?Sor r y, M r. Pr esident, but you?r e over r uled.? the fir st guar d said.
?DAG NABBIT!? w hined the Pr esident, stom ping his foot unhappily fr om inside the tank .
?M r. Pr esident, could you please cease to shout thr ough that bullhor n?? a soldier asked tim idly. ?It?s

?YOU CAN?T TELL M E W HAT TO DO!!!!? scr eam ed the Pr esident. ?I AM IN CHARGE AND I DO W HAT I

cover ed their ear s and cur led up in the fetal position on the gr ass.
By this tim e Nat and the r est of the cam per s had left and gone back to cam p.
