The Sniffles learned of late that a group called the TJG (Taxidermy, Junkonomy, Gonzales) has swung their plan of attack into action against Up With People, a humanities organization devoted to the welfare of the world. Operation: Down With People was designed to bring Up With People to a stop. The Sniffles having many other missions to take care of, Scandal was assigned to this mission alone. His mission is to discover the elements of Operation: Down With People and bring them to a stop. He will disguise himself as a paricipant in the Up With People Program.
Progress:
8/6/99- Scandal has reached Colorado and is involved in training.
9/13/99- Scandal and the rest of the group is on the move. Scandal has some leads on where TJG operatives are.
10/12/99- Scandal has entered Deutschland and is poking around for information. Had a slight encounter with a TJG operative and a taffy mixing machine.
11/20/99- As of late, Scandal is located near Austria. He has a strong lead to the where abouts of a TJG pillow making factory in the area. Scandal has assembled a small militia and village mob and plans on going to raid the factory in a few days.
3/15/00-After a long debauched attempt at rading the TJG pillow making factory, Scandal decided to investigate the forests of Endor (which, incidentally are in Canada).
6/21/00-After a lengthy period of lost contact with Scandal, the Sniffles have finally regained contact with the undercover agent. He is currently located in Nevada. Apparently, TJG's main hideout was located in Reno, NV. Scandal moved in for the final kill. Is now awaiting orders to leave for Hawaii where he will attend a school on using a periscope.
The Sniffles are a versatile group. They have experience operating many different types of automobiles, aircraft, and watercraft. But none of them could fly a helicopter worth beans. So the Sniffles all drew straws and Oyster was the one picked to enroll in the helicopter flying and shoe tying class. This class was specifically designed for people who could not fly helicopters and/or not tie their shoes. While Oyster could tie his shoes very well, he needed the experience of knowing to fly a helicopter for those quick reconaissance missions where we needed to get out fast. The class required that you bring your own shoes and/or your own helicopter. We went down to the local junkyard and found some old parts and together, Nutmeg and Delicacy helped to assemble what is pictured above. The class is an intensive four month long course (The first three weeks of which are devoted soley to getting the lace around the first loop) and Oyster had been commuting from the Sniffles' base to the class. The Sniffles have had to replace a few plate glass windows due to this, but it will all be worth it in the end. Good luck, Oyster.
