| }   In a fanfare of trumpets and wanton adulation which would make all of} those Charlton Heston Bible movies pale in comparison, the Oracle
 } begins its tirade of wisdom to the unwashed:
 }
 }   You have been selected as one of the lucky mortals who will be able
 } to not only afford a fully loaded aquarium which will make prospective
 } romantic partners disrobe themselves instantly in your presence, but
 } you will also have access to an EXCITING OFFER which will make your
 } friends so jealous that they will all hate you and devote themselves
 } to brutally murdering you.
 }
 }   "How can I afford a measly, paltry 125G aquarium and supplies?" you
 } ask? This question will be the last thing on your mind once you catch
 } a whiff of the intoxicating odors of pure, unadulterated CA$H that
 } will soon be flowing your way, as one of the meager side benefits of
 } your new life selling ORACULAR GRIT magazine door to door!
 }   EVERYONE loves ORACULAR GRIT!  Mom will love the recipes, and Dad
 } will enjoy the party jokes - he'll be the hit at his next cocktail
 } party, which means he'll soon be raking in BIG BUCK$ once those new
 } social connections start to pay off!  Sis will flip over the mad,
 } mod makeup tips, and Junior will love the monthly column on Outdoor
 } Adventures!  And for you, oh loyal supplicant, there is a 16-page
 } pullout every month detailing the latest and greatest in aquarium
 } supplies.  But you'll be too busy to care, since you'll be spending
 } your every waking moment gleefully selling ORACULAR GRIT to everyone
 } you know!
 }
 }   Once you've sold a meager 175 subscriptions, you are eligible to
 } receive a monster CA$H bonus, but you'd have rocks in your head to
 } do such a fool thing, since you can instead trade in your credit for
 } the biggest, hottest thing to hit the aquarium enthusiasts scene
 } since, well, since aquariums! Yes, I'm talking about SEA MONKEYS!
 } These aren't the Sea Monkeys you had as a kid which were really
 } nothing more than a bunch of underdeveloped plankton that turned
 } the water brownish-grey for a few days if you were lucky; these are
 } exciting, underwater pals who will go on adventures, tell you stories,
 } and make everyone in the world love you!  Just take a look at one of
 } these lovable creatures:
 }
 } o   O   (\__/)
 }        /O O `.    /-(
 }     o (O__,)  \--/   (
 }         / .  . ) -- (
 }         |-| '-' \-\  (
 }        .(   _(   ) \(
 }       '---.~_ _ _&
 }
 }   I can see you pressing your face to the screen and whimpering with
 } unbridled desire at this very moment.  But wait, there's more!  Once
 } your Sea Monkey colony has come to fruition, you can also earn the
 } following accessories to add to the fun:
 }
 } Sell only x subscriptions...         and receive...
 }
 } 204 - Sea Monkey X-ray glasses: allows them to see what you look like
 }       with no clothes on!  And they can see what the bones in your hand
 }       look like!
 }
 } 808 - Sea Monkey Itching Powder: nobody loves a good gag like a Sea
 }       Monkey, and when you sprinkle some of this in their water, you'll
 }       be laughing for days!
 }
 } 400 - Sea Monkey Habitrail Adventure World: see them swim through the
 }       futuristic tubing.  Watch them frolic with the plastic diver and
 }       fantastic ceramic castle.  It's like Disneyland, only for Sea
 }       Monkeys!
 }
 } 12 million - The Franklin Mint Presents The Sea Monkeys Chess Set: 16
 }       of history's most famous Sea Monkeys potrayed in stunning Cubic
 }       Zirconium! Each piece is rendered in actual size!
 }
 }   Since you can't contain yourself any longer, send NOW for your sales
 } kit, and let the fun begin!
 }
 }    You owe the Oracle a shrimp alfredo at a restaraunt of his choice.
