    From the geographical study our world history we all know: In the beginning, our world consisted of one land mass known as Pangea. All the rest of the world was covered by water. Right in the very center of this land mass, like a pimple on an elephants back, was our beautiful snow capped mountain called Mount Perry. It was no wonder Zog the Terrible chose this spot to land his giant space ship.

    Zog, thinking he’d claimed the entire world for himself and wanting to name the land mass in his own name, was shocked to find the place was already called Pangea. After spending several years hunting over the huge land mass for whomever had named the place Pangea, Zog settled down and began thinking of how he could improve his surroundings.

    Looking out over the land mass from atop Mount Perry, the place looked rather bleak, no vegetation, trees or flowers except for some nasty looking brown algae growing by the great salt sea at the very edge of the land mass. Not a very attractive start to life on this planet.

    Having been a gardener on his home planet, Zog decided to build a garden at the foot of Mount Perry, next to a river which flowed year around from the melting glacier atop Mount Perry itself. Zog dragged out his box of seeds and began planting. It time, he had a beautiful garden growing next to the river with trees, flowers, and grass in abundance. It was getting to be an awful lot of work for just one space man.



    Zog decided he needed help maintaining his ever expanding garden. Scooping up some of the nuclear waste material from one of his rocket motors, he irradiated some of the nasty looking brown algae. The result was the creation of Yodar Hoopelhoffer The First. Zog immediately set Yodar to work in his new garden and instructed him in what to do and how. Among the instructions was: He must, under no conditions, eat the fruit of a specific tree Zog called, “The Tree Of Carnal Knowledge”.

    Yodar wasn’t the brightest of lights but he had a strong back, a pleasing disposition, and was very willing to work without pay. After all, in this new world, what would one do with a pay check if he had one?



    However, as the years passed, Yodar looked lonely and Zog took pitty on him. One night he swiped one of Yodar’s ribs as he slept, and created a woman to keep Yodar company. This was the world’s first unlawful Organ Donation.



    Again, Zog instructed them both; they must never eat the fruit of The Tree Of Carnal Knowledge.



    Things went well for Zog’s little family of people and they both did as instructed. Yodar named his companion Yevette. The two of them got along well, even though Yevette considered herself smarter than both Zog and Yodar. She began to nag at Yodar and issue orders to him about how he should not track dirt into their home and such. Yodar was confused by most of what Yevette wanted especially the tracking of dirt into their home. Their home had a dirt floor.
