my EPIC script

Script:

Benny:
When you think of a good bedtime story you don’t usually think of an epic seducer named homer, lighting the seen with romantic candles and incense, and telling you about a romantic ending to a twenty year journey about a sailor named Odysseus finding true love for a second time with the same wife!


Jed:
Nope, honestly, my sister reading me half of the book good night moon comes as close as I get to that Benny!


Benny:
Real close Jed… Real close!


Jed:
Well on that note folks I should tell you that Homer and his historic stories, called Epics, are not bouncing back to the beat of the Meter, or rhythm, of his Lyre any time soon.


Benny:
Couldn’t have said it better
Myself Jed! I’m sorry that good night moon is still in your agenda! But yes those EPIC stories, excuse the pun, date back to the dark age of Hellas, which is right in between the firs Olympics and the Darien invasion. About 2800 years ago.


Jed:
Yes, don’t get excited folks; these epic seducers aren’t coming back any time soon, to pay you a night time visit! I guess you are still stuck with the old fashion of counting sheep!


Benny:
Good call Jed, but how would they get here anyways? Written history was never recorded, so how do we know what kind of transportation they used!


Jed:
You are right but the thing is, is that in all of the epics, we know and love, always tell us about the long trips by boat.

Benny:
Ya, don’t you remember that old epic about Odysseus and his extended road trip because of bragging? That was a sad one, but in the end it had a happy ending, which is of course how all stories end.


Jed:
OH YA! I remember that one! And how in the end he comes back to his hometown, Ithaca, and realized that he had to search for true love in his own wife. And after a competition, to see who was the best warrior in the land, with a grand prize, which was to marry the widowed queen, he realized his love for his old wife and ended up wining the competition and marring her once again.


Benny:
That is a great story, but I'm sure that it would be told a little bit better by the original, The Epic Master…. Homer.


Jed:
Yes Benny Obviously Homer Simpson would read it a bit funnier, no kidding!


Benny:
Dude, are you that clueless on this subject?


Jed:
(Look around worried) no?

Yo you know that where talking about one of the best storie teller slash musician ever right?

Jed:
YES. I never thought that my jokes where that pitiful.

Benny:
Well you know as they say, you learn something every day.


Jed:
Ya, and lets hope that our great audience has too!


Benny:
Hey! Ya thank you very much!
