OH NO!  As you touch the wires together, gas fumes in the engine compartment
ignite and blast you, the cars, and your house, into very tiny pieces. It looks
like you should have left the wires alone (you didn't really want to drive a
Yugo anyway, did you?)

YOU ARE DEAD!

As you open the hood of the Yugo, you see two loose wires.  Maybe you should

OH NO!  As you step onto the garage floor you realize (too late) that you have
forgotten to wear something to protect your feet.  That ordinarily would not
be too bad, except that today a large rat has wandered into the garage and
proceeds to take out his frustrations on your toes.

Rat bites cause all sorts of diseases.  Amazingly, you are the first person
in 200 years to run into a rat carrying the plague.  After a short period of
agony, you shuffle off to a better world.

YOU ARE DEAD.

The Trooper's eyes suddenly become glazed over...He apparently has "snapped"
because of your failure to obey his orders! He starts to go into a combat 
stance and draws his 9MM 14 shot pistol and fires point blank at your body!

Don't worry though, this guy will probably be fired because of this for the
protection of the community.

A lot of good that does you now!!!

Apparently the Trooper suspects you are a wanted criminal who murdered 
some people in Topeka.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 124

He grabs you and spins you around. As your face is pressed against the side
of the car, you are searched and handcuffed! After a quick search,  your
possessions are removed, and you are placed in the back of the police cruiser.

After a short, bumpy ride, you are thrown in a cell with a VERY mean looking 
character named Bubba.

You wonder how long it will be before you will get out of here!

You have no idea where your car is right now!

Suddenly, Bubba threatens to rip you from limb to limb unless you give him
something to brighten his day, NOW!

I really think you should find something for him...FAST!

MESSAGE 131

Bubba laughs at your feeble attempt to entertain him, and proceeds to insert
you into the cell toilet.

Isn't is amazing how much can be stuffed into one of those things!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 132

They forgot to search your pockets! Luckily you remembered to put some things
in your pocket before you were arrested.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 133

Bubba has never seen a gem as fine as that in the ring you "donated" to
him. His gratitude will probably keep him from killing you (at least for
the next few hours.) 

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 134

Bubba seems grateful for your generous gift. Hopefully he won't come to
the conclusion that there may be "more where that came from."

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 135

As Bubba takes your "gift" he moves slightly on the cell bench. As he
moves, you see a lever on the wall that had been hidden behind him.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 136


But you will have to open your pocket before you can try to give the 
ring to your friend.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 137

Bubba says "That's not good enough chump!"

END_MESSAGE 

MESSAGE 138

There is nothing in your pocket! You really should have taken my advice
and put one or two VERY valuable items in there. Well, too late now!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 139

The guard says to you, "Hey moron, can't you read, the lever you just
pulled is for emergencies only. It doesn't look to me like there is any
emergency here!
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 140

The guard shuffles over to your cell and says, "Listen jerk, I've got better
things to do with my time than to bother with the likes of you."
 
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 141

The youthful guard eyes you cautiously and says, "Hey, this is my first
week on the job, I don't want anything to happen here today."
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 142

The beautiful female guard says, "What seems to be the problem here? I'd 
really like to keep things on an even keel today."
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 143

As you pull the lever on the wall, you hear an annoying buzzing sound blaring
in a nearby room.  You hope that whomever is in that room does not have
sensitive ears!  Bubba tells you that not every one of the four guards on duty
tonight is the friendly type. 

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 144

The guard interrupts you and starts ranting and raving.  You get the impression
that this guy has a mental problem.  He starts to twitch and slap his billy
club impatiently in his palm. He orders you to sit on the bench! NOW!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 145

The guard listens to you with his eyes half closed. This guy is no brain
surgeon! You watch in amazement as, without so much as a word, the guard 
turns and walks away!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 146

The rookie guard nervously listens to you. You wonder if he will help you
get out of this place! After you stop speaking, he does something to the
cell door. You look at the guard, but he seems nervous and speechless.
You look at Bubba sitting on the cell bench, but Bubba offers no
helpful advice.

After a moment of thought, you assess you options to be to either sit back 
on the cell bench, or to open the cell door. 

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 147

As you speak to the guard, you can't help but admire her beauty. She listens
to you intently and appears sympathetic. You don't know whether to trust her
or not. She says, "Come on, lets go see the desk Sergeant. By the way, my
name is Jill."  She unlocks the cell door and motions for you to open it. You
nervously wonder whether you should listen to her (it seems very unusual to
you for her to be asking YOU to open the door to the cell.) Maybe you should
go back and sit on the bench.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 148

As you quickly sit on the bench, the guard seems to calm down. He glares
at you and walks away.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 149

The guard, incensed at your lack of obedience to his command, opens the cell
door and beats you to a bloody pulp with his billy club.

Bubba finds this rather entertaining.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 150

As you sit on the bench, the guard again fiddles with the cell lock and then
nervously walks away leaving you along with Bubba.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 151

As you attempt to open the cell door, you notice that it is still securely
locked. You wonder what the guard was doing with the door and are about
to ask him that very question when you hear him yell for help! He apparently
has misinterpreted your actions to be that of a prisoner attempting to escape.
He suddenly grabs a shotgun from the wall and proceeds to have some target
practice with you as the target!

Bubba curses you for staining his t-shirt.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 152

As you sit down, the beautiful guard shrugs her shoulders and locks the cell
door. She turns and walks away, apparently now off duty. You really blew
it this time!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 153

As you open the cell door, the beautiful guard escorts you in to see the 
Desk Sergeant.
You explain to the Sergeant that this is a case of mistaken identity. He 
looks at you as if he has heard this story before. The Sergeant says,
"how would you suggest that we prove what you say, that you are not a 
wanted murderer from Topeka?"

How, indeed! 

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 154

Just your luck, as you pull the lever, the buzzing noise becomes too much
for Bubba to take! 
He proceeds to rip you limb from limb.

Afterward, he apologizes to you (now, doesn't that make you feel better.) 

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 155

The Desk Sergeant impatiently tells you that you better think of some way
to prove that you are not the criminal in the wanted poster or he will
throw you back in the cell with Bubba!

"If you have any suggestions, tell us and we will give it a try," he says.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 156

Jill says, "I believe you are innocent, but you better think of a way to
convince the Sergeant or you will be right back in your cell."

"Think of something and I'll try it," she says.

END_MESSAGE

The Desk Sergeant just grumbles at you.

After a couple of minutes, a report comes over the FAX machine indicating
that you are not apparently wanted for any crime!
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 163

The Desk Sergeant tells you that based on the fingerprint check, he is willing
to release you. But, since he is still a little suspicious, you will have to
post bail (the bail will be returned to you next week if you still check out
ok.  The bail is $50.00, payable by cash or credit card.

a trip for two to Europe, and a brand new Corvette ZR-1!

Jill gives you a big kiss.

The roar of the crowd makes you feel GREAT (the prizes helped a little too!)

The Yugo is an ugly car.  To get in it type ENTER, to get out type EXIT.

MESSAGE 217

The judge is about to hand you a blue pass when, suddenly, a gust of wind blows
his hat off and sends it bouncing down the parking field.  He follows it in
hot pursuit.  You are momentarily blinded by a swirl of blowing dirt and
papers which surround you in the wind.  Just as suddenly as it began, the
wind quickly subsides and calm weather returns.

You wonder if the now missing judge caught up to his hat!
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 218

The judge, oblivious to all around him, mumbles. "Engine compartment looks
good."
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 220

The judge, oblivious to all around him, mumbles. "Interior looks good."

This man cannot be bribed!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 222

As you look under the car you notice a piece of blue paper deposited by the
wind in the midst of other debris.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 225
You better not leave without checking on your sister.
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 226

The clerk glares at you and says, "beat it creep!"

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 227

The clerk smiles and says, "Why didn't you show me this before."  She
validates your pass and tells you to give it to the first official
you see. 


END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 228

The official takes your pass and tells you to immediately go to the room
overlooking the judging area and wait for him there.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 229

The official who told you to wait here returns and, you follow him back 
to the registration desk area.  He takes a key and opens the door marked
"Private" and brings you into the judging area you were observing from
the fancy waiting room.  The official leaves you in the judging area.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 230

The official glares at you and says, "beat it creep!"

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 231

The now friendly registration clerk cheerfully tells you "Of course
you can borrow a soldering iron.  Return it to me when you are finished."
She then hands you the requested tool.
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 232

You carefully melt the solder with the soldering iron and transform the batch
of electronic parts into a functioning radio.  It is permanently tuned to the
internal racetrack official transmitting band.

You return the tool to the clerk and thank her for its use.
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 233

You carefully plug the speaker into the board, but notice that it will not
work unless it is soldered in place.
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 234
A couple of small batteries, big deal.
END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 235

The judge glares at you and says, "beat it creep!"  You sense that he has
not been having a good day.

END_MESSAGE

The radio crackles, "Mr. West, report to the Chief Judge please."

END_MESSAGE

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 242

You notice that the coin slot of the phone is jammed with gum!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 243

Pay telephones won't work with a single dime anymore. Try plural.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 245

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 246

The radio battery is now dead.  The radio no longer works and you no longer
have any chance to win this game.

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 247

The radio has no On/Off switch.  It is permanently on.  You accidently
soldered the battery in place so it cannot be removed.  Happy listening!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 248

The judge looks relieved to see HIS radio!  Apparently some sore loser took
it and dismantled it.  Without the radio the judge would have been too 
preoccupied to judge your car.  

The judge says, "Thanks!  As Chief Judge of today's show, and by the power 
vested in me pursuant to the Bylaws of this noble establishment, I hereby
grant to you the 'Coin of the Show.'"  He then hands you a quarter!

As you stare at the coin, the judge concludes with, "I sure you have studied
the Vette Magazine article and know what you must do next." You wonder whether
you should tell him that the page in question must have been the same missing
page that had the Racetrack address!  Great!  Now What!? 


END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 249

She already gave it to you!

END_MESSAGE

MESSAGE 250

The gum looks like it has been there for a long time.
