Wizard looked round with a spaniel grin. “Don’t worry Dot!” he said. “This is Samson – he’s the real power in the Internet and they call him Samson because he’s so powerful. He’s a “server” and controls all the data as it moves around The Super Highway.”

“That’s me!” rumbled Samson, his smile getting wider and wider. Bump went everything again!

“There are lots of servers and they all have different names, but we like Samson best of all because he’s really kind and helpful” Wizard went on. “The only trouble is, he gets upset because he frightens people when he speaks. He’s so powerful his voice makes everything wobble and vibrate when he talks!”

“It’s true!” said Samson sadly. Bump bump!

Wizard laughed. “He’s really as gentle as a lamb though and he’s VERY helpful.”

Reassured by Wizzy’s words, Dot tried as hard as she could not to be frightened. But she could see Samson was about to speak again, so she quickly held on to a nearby computer.

“You’re on your way to Tommy’s aren’t you, in Texas?” boomed Samson.

“That’s right” said Wizard. “We know we can rely on you to point us in the right direction.”

“You certainly can!” said Samson. “By the way young lady – now would you like me to upload that web page you’ve been designing for your father and connect up his e-mail address that you were hoping to secure?” One eye in the big sunny face winked.

“AND” he continued in his deep deep voice “If you like I can host it all for you - and then customers and businesses all over the world will be able to visit the site and talk to your father. Easy-peasy, just like that!”

Dot swallowed. “Yes… thank you… that would be lovely.”

“BUT!” Samson said – and all the computers jumped up and down on their desks again – “MUCH more importantly, how about that domain you were dreaming about – missdorothy.com…? Would you like me to host that for you too, so that children everywhere can contact you?”

Dot searched for her voice, but it came out rather squeaky. She really was overwhelmed by the thought of her own domain on the Internet. “Er… yes… er… please” she stammered.

“No problem my dear,” said Samson. “Done in a twinkle!” and gave a big deep laugh, which made his jolly eyes all crinkle up. “You just leave it with me! Now you’d better get net-voyaging to – if you all still want that burger!”

“Thought you’d NEVER ask!” muttered Mr Mouse.

Samson closed his eyes for a moment - and then suddenly the most beautiful shaft of light lit up the dark corridor ahead.

Glowing in the light was a big signpost with an arrow above it. It read “U.S.A.” Dot couldn't believe it – they really were on their way to America and Tommy’s Hamburger Heaven!
