  57. Newcomer's Island(#1603RDA)
  58.         This appears to be a rather constrictive inkwell, jammed full of characters.  A little bit of Pink Elephant on Parade ink drops on you; through it one can see the rose garden that's out there and the people in it.  Among other things, the world outside the inkwell offers housing that isn't so cramped, or so wet.
  59.  
  60.         You might choose to visit the Rose Garden by typing 'out', or the park of the day by typing 'park'.  You can return to this area by typing 'new'.  If you're new to MUCKing, you can get a short list of important commands by typing 'commands'.
  61.  
  62.         If you'd like a character, you can page a wizard who's on duty -- they're listed by typing 'wizzes' -- or if none are available, send an email with the name you want and some information about your character to     character@spindizzy.org    and if there's no difficulties, the persona will be created.  It's highly recommended to take look around SpinDizzy and talk to other residents before requesting a character.
  63.   
  64.         If you *have* a character and would like automated help setting it up, or re-setting it, you may wish to try typing the 'setup' command from here.  You can get help finding a home by typing 'homefinder',  or type 'homefinder #help' for more options.
  65.   
  66.         If you need help, try paging helpstaff or a wizard (type 'helpstaff' or 'wizzes' for a list of such people), or for basic help type 'commands'.
  67.   
  68. It's just warm enough to be comfortable, though a cool wind is blowing some clouds across.  It's about 2 pm local time.

  98. The Rose Garden(#304RLCJ)
  99.         The water fountain stands at the center of the Rose Garden, 
  100. a circular pond with cement funnels, water turned off for the fear of 
  101. ice.  From it, running in the cardinal directions, are twin avenues 
  102. covered in about six centimeters of snow; and surprisingly deep straits 
  103. of water that extend to the distance.  A light fog rises from the warm 
  104. water, condensation slowly eating away the snowfall.  
  105.         
  106.         Bracketing the fountain and several curled benches the roses 
  107. grow, with the larger flowers still poking out from the white blanket 
  108. in concentric circles out to the trees.  A vertical orange wall with 
  109. notes sticking to it serves as the bulletin board, and a drinking 
  110. fountain offers something to sip on.  
  111.

  180.         This is a modest grove with the transplanted Christmas Trees 
  181. from past years decorating it.  It appears to be lightly snow-covered, 
  182. although a careful examination proves it to actually be vanilla 
  183. milkshake on the ground.  There are a few snow-squirrel and snow-coati
  184. angels made in the frosty ground, as well as a couple strawholes.
  185.

  197. You find yourself on Mockingbird lane.  As you look around, you find the place strangely familiar.  Yes, that's the Cleaver's house over there.  Next to it is Mr. Wilson's house, made obvious by the little boy in overalls and a striped shirt yelling, "Hello Mr. Wilson!".  Across the street is Where Darrin and Samantha Stevens live, and you can't help but recognise the home of Mike and Carol Brady, and their six charming kids.  As you look down the street, you see house after house you know and love.  The sky is clear, the birds are chirping, and the world seems perfectly normal and middle class until....   Your gaze reaches the end of the street, where you see a house looming above a vine and moss covered wrought iron fence.  The house looks dark and creepy, especially due to the thunderstorm raining upon only that house.  You approach and see the address, 1313 Mockingbird Lane.  Yep, this is the place.
  198.         It's just warm enough to be comfortable, though a cool wind is blowing some clouds across.  It's about 2 pm local time.

  205.      This is an arid, rolling desert, dunes here, scrubland there, perilous mountains and cliffs over yonder, hot sun glaring overhead.

  212. This is a sleek, streamlined spaceship executed in ink and paint, bright
  213. grass green colored with white racing stripes and more "NO STEP" signs
  214. than are strictly necessary. The smoothly curved front has a broad wind-
  215. shield and tapers gently to a blunt muzzle featuring a wonky assembly of
  216. blasters, lenses, and gears. On the back are an array of propulsion
  217. engines and some less obvious instruments of movement, and below are the
  218. extensible legs which, however spindly, serve as landing gear.
  219.      Delta wings spread out to either side; fore of one is the airlock.

  229. light gray plastic panels; the ceiling is white tiles with embedded
  230. fluorescent lights; the flooring is darker gray and textured for
  231. traction.
  232.      At front center before the curved windshield is a dashboard with
  233. two comfy seats. On the dash in front of the pilot's seat is a yoke and
  234. lots of buttons, dials, switches and displays, and on the dash in front
  235. of the commander's seat is a panel labeled "Fleischertron" in block
  236. letters, with pistol-grip joystick, buttons, and radar.
  237.      Dotted around the rest of the space, leaving enough room to walk
  238. around, are about a half dozen other seats, each with their own safety
  239. belts for strapping in securely. Aft of the bridge is the engine room,
  240. allowing direct access to the engines and the experimental Avery Drive.
  241.      If you have piloting permission, you can direct the ship with

  296.      This is an arid, rolling desert, dunes here, scrubland there, perilous mountains and cliffs over yonder, hot sun glaring overhead.
  297.      It's also animated, a raucous riotous cartoon ecosystem.

  305.      The bright blue sky arches over the rugged rocky landscape.
  306. Waterfalls of ink and paint in many colors cascade down cliffsides,
  307. kicking up sprays. Ledges and catwalks weave in and out around the
  308. falls, affording spectacular views to those who don't want to dive in
  309. themselves. The Inkuazu River rushes north in rainbow-striped torrents.

  328. Starship Clampett - Interior
  329. The ship's interior is built on an open plan, with a roughly semi-
  330. circular bridge, flat in back. The walls are decorated with utilitarian
  331. light gray plastic panels; the ceiling is white tiles with embedded
  332. fluorescent lights; the flooring is darker gray and textured for
  333. traction.
  334.      At front center before the curved windshield is a dashboard with
  335. two comfy seats. On the dash in front of the pilot's seat is a yoke and
  336. lots of buttons, dials, switches and displays, and on the dash in front
  337. of the commander's seat is a panel labeled "Fleischertron" in block
  338. letters, with pistol-grip joystick, buttons, and radar.
  339.      Dotted around the rest of the space, leaving enough room to walk
  340. around, are about a half dozen other seats, each with their own safety
  341. belts for strapping in securely. Aft of the bridge is the engine room,
  342. allowing direct access to the engines and the experimental Avery Drive.
  343.      If you have piloting permission, you can direct the ship with
  344. 'drive <COMMAND>'. Look outside with 'look out' and get out with 'out'.

  383. Ping squeaks, "Hi."
  384. look Ping
  385. Ping is ... no, look down.  Standing up at about two and a half
  386. inches, she doesn't look like she's out to take over the world, but
  387. you never really can tell with 'toons.  She's dressed in a rather
  388. striking green dress, with a wide-brimmed hat. The dress fits her
  389. nicely, and draws attention to her more attractive parts.
  390. Other than that, she's obviously bipedal, and has light grey fur.
  391.  
  392. Her large, thin ears and long, slender whiskers indicate sensitivity
  393. to her surroundings, and she blinks at you in curiosity.  She's also
  394. wearing a tiny pair of sunglasses, the wires bending oddly yet
  395. comfortably to curl over her ears, and she holds something that
  396. looks like a wand or small staff.  It somehow seems powerful, in
  397. spite of its fragile appearance, and her own appearance is rather
  398. unassuming... so don't assume too much!
  399.

  405. You say, "How can you tell?"
  406. Ping squeaks, "By examining the room, rather than just looking at the description, which I believe is something guests may not be able to do."
  407. Ping squeaks, "You seem to already know your way around a little, I'm guessing you've been on mucks before?"
  408. say Ounce, I met patashu
  409. You say, "Ounce, I met patashu"
