The Abbreviated Adventures of Mogey & Smush Volume CXIV

One day Mogey and Smush were journeying to Faraway Norgle, a land where the streets were paved with zucchini bread and the roofs were thatched with almond joys. It was a long and dangerous journey, but who wouldn't undergo some danger for sodapop rivers teeming with fish made of steak?

At last Mogey and Smush crested the last butte and there before them lay Faraway Norgle. And though both Mogey and Smush were tough guys, they both broke down and wept.

"Feast your eyes, Mogey!" Smush said. "Feast your eyes on Faraway Norgle."

Mogey tried with all his might, but he just couldn't seem to comply. And so it was that Mogey and Smush learned the true meaning of an ancient adage: it is all but impossible to feast your eyes on anything if you're simultaneously feasting your stomach on zucchini bread and almond joys.
