Discouraging the Thneed Trade

Penelope Manor
The window opened upon a panorama of the rest of the world as Lady Gwendolyn looked out through its crystal panes. As she stood she smoothed her dress, "again?" she could hear her mother say. If she had one wish, it would be for her Lord Godfrey to return from the war, but with no wish at hand, she headed out towards the ballroom where her niece was having her coming of age party where suitors would once again be waiting for her.

Shroud of Blood
After breaking the Schaffer case, Sandra deserved this. The hot water of the shower washed over here in waves. Her moment of serenity was broken without her even knowing it, as those misnamed insects called spiders flushed out of the drain and began to swarm over her legs.

Valued Associations
There were seven seals and seven keys. There were seven markings and seven oils. It was like those logic puzzles in the back of those magazines he got as a kid. He had picked up the clues. That key went with that oil. But that seal didn't go with that marking. The marking and key went together and they were to left of that oil.

I never raised you to be a signalman.
It had been a hard few months. They had been through a lot together. But now he reveled in the cool night air as they walked along the country road. He and his daughter, and dad was good with the two boys. The frogs and crickets signaled all was right with the world again.

( A minute goes by a lot faster than one would expect, especially when I do edits within that one minute. Must stop doing that, or just type better.)

The Kitchen
Jake continued stirring at the stovetop. The food just wouldn't mix right. Maybe he put in the wrong ingredients, maybe the wrongs amounts. Maybe it had something to do with the blood slowly spreading at his feet from his dead wife just a yard away.

My poke at Mike Selinker's NaNoWriMi (http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/community/arts/books/naNoWriMi&source=rss)
inspired by friend Owen

The Chase
The stone were ancient. Large and proud they had stood upon these fields for eons. Engraved with runes and dirty with time, Jill leaned in close. She took off her glove as she kneeled and put one hand upon the cool stone. SHe opened her mind and read the traces."Monkey named Notme, about 2 days ago, we're on the right track"

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
This is Hollywood afterall, I"m not surprised really.

The Caterpillar Conquest Scenario
So I'm watching "White Collar", when Natalie Morales pops up as FBI agent Lauren Cruz.

Me? I'm thinking: aha! dubdub is undercover to catch someone.

So, she's not after the counterfeiter, she's after the guy who made the dress, who's smuggling in dresses made by bugs who make mind control threads.

I want to go play hooky out in today's wonderful weather.

more sequel heaven
So Hollywood retreads a bit.

Sometimes, I say, so what.

Musical whiplash
I have eclectic musical tastes, which leads me to have a variety of musical types on CD.
Recently I purchased a Zune, and I've been getting all my CDs into MP3 so I can put my music onto my Zune.

So I have thousands of songs and I start listening to my music on shuffle I get some... odd results.

Like the other day I'm driving in my car to Norman and I'm listening to Vengeance by Yngwie Malmstein (metal), followed by the theme to the Donna Reed show (so I have a couple of TV tunes collections :P ).

Sequel
So I'm in the process of sorting through by VHS collection and tossing and copying to dvd and what-have-you, when I ran across "Oblivion".
This guilty pleasure with Julie Newmar I bet had some inspiration for Firefly (pure conjecture). At the end of this movie they said 'to be continued'

There weren't kidding
