Cyberia - The City of Ladies

From the Lookout

Posted in City Residences by cronelogical on August 12th, 2006

When Crone Fran decided to set up her lookout at the gates of Cybercity, she found that the old castle provided a suitable tower site but also knew that in her croneship she must have a comfortable cottage just like the one she knew best so she hired a builder from the old place and had him construct it atop the tower. It was a bit of a task to get her many antenna, her Big Mac, her Little Mac, the radar, the wind catcher,three telescopes and two servers and the necessary other bits and pieces to the top but with the help of several winged monkeys, two friendly wizards, and a helicopter loaded with underaged computer engineers who were kind enough to carry her two cats and the knitting basket they got it all connected. You will be able to connect to the tower by mobile phone, wind chimes, telepathy or whistle. Expect a report to headquarters, either Heather or her alter ego whenever a visitor is arriving.
There will be no further notice until the crone has had some sleep.

He plays an old record
the mellow tones of the saxaphone
a piano, a base, a drum or two
and the big band songs that they made their own
as they danced until dawn
and kissed at the gate
as her landlady checked

when she came in late
