It's not "Full House: The Musical," starring Dave Coulier in his
triumphant return to the Great White Way, is it? Because I already
called dibs on that one.

I think it was an elaborate mistake.....

You see, Jim Mallon was on his lunch break and sewing some hats
together to give
his fingers a break from the hideous task of editing together some KTMA
episodes
for future release when suddenly Rhino calls. Knowing the jovial
nature of Rhino,
they were pulling their bi-annual prank of telling Jim they were
cancelling MST3K
releases for "Facts of Life" releases. Jim, obviously horrified,
forgets what he
is doing (as in sewing the K into your hat) starts to faint before
Rhino finally
laughs and tells them they almost have the "Beast of Yucca Flats" all
set for
release. Jim, obviously angry, hangs up and gets back to editing more
Scrapbook
tapes, slipping a stray frame between bits which say "Rhino Bites Torgo
Wanker."

Thus, the hat lies forgotten in the 'completed' pile, and is set out by
mistake.
So, you see, you are the recipient of an elaborate prank by the nice
people at
Rhino and Jim Mallon.

Enjoy!

"Mr. B. Natural" is neither a man, nor a woman. It is nothing more than
a
musical note, anthropomorphosed by the chaotic spasms of a troubled
young
boy's frail mind. Were we to intrude upon this boy's fantasy world,
bodily
seize the hallucination he knows as "Mr. B," and "pants" it, we would
find nothing to indicate it's gender. Smooth as a Ken doll, that's what

I'm tellin' ya.

(Next time on "Fuel for your Nightmares," we'll "pants" Torgo, and
settle
the debate once and for all. Join us for "Knees: Is Bigger Really
Better?")
