A series of unlikely co-incedences........

Just off the promenade.
A few hours after the return of the mining team.
Zack wasn't feeling too good. Ever since he had got back from the
mining expedition, he'd felt pretty rough, and now it was even worse.
"I'm a scientist, Jim, not a miner!" screamed Zack, for some reason
known only to himself.
He wasn't this most clear-headed of people at the best of times, but
now it felt like pixies were stuffing cotton wool in his ear. Wait a
goddamn minute.... There WERE pixies stuffing cotton wool in his ear!
"GEROFF!!!!!" screamed Zack, waving his hands around his head,
scattering squeeking pixies. The pixies ran off round the corner,
gibbering and trailing cotton wool.
"Goddamnit, what's going on here?" muttered the bemused Zack, as he
walked onto the promenade. In the distance, he could see a group of
security members trying to lassoo a walking pink tree which looked to
be heading towards the emergency beer tanks. Already 3 security
officers were being dragged along the oblivious tree.
Zack tried to remember if he'd taken any hallucinogenic drugs
recently, but couldn't remember any off the top of his head.
To calm his nerves, Zack decided to go and get something to
eat. He went up to the nearest burger joint, "Burger Tzar", and
ordered a large coke and fries.
"No burger? Go on, they're really good, why don't you just have
one?" asked the short Japanese lady serving him, eagerly.
"Um, no I'm OK, thanks" replied Zack, as he left the dissapointed
lady. As he walked to one of the tables, a woman in wellington boots
with a spade over her shoulder stopped him, and asked him the way to
Major Harris' office. As Zack gave her directions, he couldn't help
but notice that she wasn't wearing a bra. Finally, he managed to get
a seat at one of the benches. As he steped over a scythe leaning
against the bench, the owner moved it out of the way.
"Sorry mate" said the guy in a big cloak, munching on a burger.
"No problem" replied Zack. "Hey, that's one crazy gettup you've got
there, you off to a fancy-dress party?
"Something like that" the guy replied, "You know, I was looking for a
curry, but these burgers are really good, I could eat them all day."
"Cool" muttered Zack. God, why did he always have to sit next to the
weirdos?
