It was a blistering cold snowy day in the Ozarks when our fearless hero 
was woken up. It was the wicked alarm clock armed with NPR speaking of 
worldly news. Our hero new what the weakness of this creature was and 
went for it like a black snake after a rat. WHACK! The snooze was hit 
but this did not seem to stop the alarm today. It seemed to keep coming 
back every ten minutes with an evil ever changing face. 6:10 SMACK! 6:20 
CRASH! 6:30 POW! By this point our hero was worn down and unable to 
fight him anymore and left his bed of solitude.

He started to prepare himself for another day as a mild mannered 
ColdFusion programmer. Suddenly his super hero like senses went off when 
he noticed the water pooling by the sewage pipe clean out in his yard. 
"Could it be? My arch mimesis has returned?" It was true. The god of 
sewage and brother of Neptune had attacked. It was the sinister Neppoo. 
A truly rank and sinister creature.

Our hero jumped into action. He quickly ran to his super hero 84 model 
Nissan station wagon of goodness and headed to the one place that would 
be able to help him. Lows.Once there he began to arm himself with the 
weapons he would need to battle this evil scourge. 50' by �" snake? 
Check. Heavy-duty rubber gloves? Check. He now had everything he needed 
and sped to his homely fortress at the top speed his automobile would 
take him. 37 mph.

He was now ready to battle. He had the 50' by �" snake, heavy-duty 
rubber gloves and his insulated cover-alls of sweet wintry protection. 
With these things he leaped into battle.
He shoved the snake into the hole full of Neppoo's liquid like badness.  
He plunged it down further and further until he found the heart of 
Neppoo. Our hero began to twist the snake clock-wise, tearing at the 
very soul of his wicked enemy. He then pulled out the snake and threw 
the torn pieces of Neppoo to the snow. He plunged the snake in to the 
hole again for another attack. This seemed to go on for an eternity 
until he saw that Neppoo was withdrawing from the battle.  With a hearty 
battle cry he shot the snake down the hole one final time.

At last the battle was over but was the war won? He did not know. He was 
too tired to think about it now. He gathered his tools of attack while 
wondering if anyone would know of this fierce battle. Would any care 
that Neppoo was weakened a little more and that his grasp of evil had 
been loosened? He doubted it. But our hero was not here for praise and 
glory. He was here to do a job. Most thought it was to program web 
applications but a very few new it was to save the planet.
