It's also just as likely that some of you might want to track me down and do me bodily harm by then. Things get pretty unpredictable around here.Nathanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00648438549121320566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-86096049123474749622008-04-05T17:02:00.000-04:002008-04-05T17:02:00.000-04:00It occurs to me that it may be premature of us to think about the end, given that we've just started the middle. It's entirely possible that by the time it gets around to Charles we'll all be so full of new ideas that we'll want to do a third round. <BR/><BR/>As for the dinosaurs, I think they're a great addition; if I hadn't destroyed it in my last part, I'd have one go on a rampage in Redmond.Justinhttp://u.nderblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-6567594757242617612008-04-05T15:44:00.000-04:002008-04-05T15:44:00.000-04:00Shawn,<BR/><BR/>Glad your Saturday is an improvement over your Friday.<BR/><BR/>And technically, that of which you speak was designed for its incoherence and it just ended (thankfully) when the clock ran out.<BR/><BR/>Charles, If you care about what he's talking about, use the search window and look for Hijack™ Day. And good luck making any sense of it without finding the matching threads in everybody else's blogs. Or for that matter even if you do find their threads.Nathanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00648438549121320566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-10750111605075325942008-04-05T15:32:00.000-04:002008-04-05T15:32:00.000-04:00Hmm... for some reason, comment notification from blogger hasn't been working for me.<BR/><BR/>Cool. No pressure, Charles. It's just the wrap up of the most farcical tale in UCF history. It's second only to the, "we shall not speak of it again" event hosted by Nathan earlier in the year. I'm not sure that really had an end...<BR/><BR/>I'm loving Saturday, BTW. 60 degrees and sunny. :)Shawn Powershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15186686711412505957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-57602567823787093862008-04-05T15:17:00.000-04:002008-04-05T15:17:00.000-04:00OK<BR/><BR/>taking these in order. Charles, we'll figure out a way to rescue you...maybe.<BR/><BR/>Shawn, I don't recall volunteering to end the thing. I see nothing wrong with the folks at the end of the line wrapping things up...and leaving Charles an epilogue to write.<BR/><BR/>Jeri, unfortunately you're right; I didn't prohibit them in the body of the story, but I hope we can do better.<BR/><BR/>and Michelle, I'll admit I have no idea what part of your comment made me think of that but it sprung up fully formed while I was reading your comment. Ergo, you gave me the idea. It might have been psychic and subconscious, but you still bear some responsibility.<BR/><BR/>And everybody else, how about a little respect for our dino-forefathers? What'd they do to deserve our abuse?Nathanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00648438549121320566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-800296545390420532008-04-05T15:08:00.000-04:002008-04-05T15:08:00.000-04:00How on EARTH is Gilligan's Island *my* fault!<BR/><BR/>And more importantly, how'd you get that from vibrators and dinosaur sodomy?Michelle Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13817444379694818074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-38122892285097045392008-04-05T14:52:00.000-04:002008-04-05T14:52:00.000-04:00Notice, all and sundry, that while Nathan banned those elements from the ending - he said nothing about subplots and tangents in the middle of the story. :)<BR/><BR/>My teens have trained me to always look for the loophole! It's too bad neither of them is interested in law as a profession.Jerihttp://smugpuppies.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-19515590287152464252008-04-05T14:20:00.000-04:002008-04-05T14:20:00.000-04:00Well, depending how it goes, my last bit *might* have set the stage to even explain the random plot changes. Of course, all that groundwork might end up being a dream an ant had about a woodchuck. There's still a lot of story yet to go. :)<BR/><BR/>I thought Nathan at one point planned to wrap the story up in a bow at the end, taking an extra turn (the bass turd). I could be wrong though...Shawn Powershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15186686711412505957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-30942309925969456732008-04-05T14:06:00.000-04:002008-04-05T14:06:00.000-04:00holy crap, i've just realized i'm gonna the closer. ulp. well not to worry, i can follow those rules, nathan (but does that leave room for victoria principal --drool! -- and patrick duffy? i keed. mostly). <BR/><BR/>btw, please don't leave the climax to me, folks. fwiw, i'm more of an epilogue man.Charles Dugglesonhttp://waronfolly.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-58673816177285514672008-04-05T12:23:00.000-04:002008-04-05T12:23:00.000-04:00Well, I told you, I love Mona. I thought she was a great invention/addition to the story.<BR/><BR/>Thinking about that, since we're now in the homestretch, I'm going to make a few new rules regarding the end of the story. <BR/><BR/>1. The story cannot end with anyone being eaten by or sat on by a dinosaur. In fact, dinosaurs are <EM>right out</EM> for involvement with the ending.<BR/><BR/>2 The story cannot end with Suzanne Pleshette and Bob Newhart waking up together and wondering what just happened.<BR/><BR/>3. The story cannot end with anyone finding themselves alone in the world with nothing but time to read and breaking their glasses.<BR/><BR/>So let it not be written; So let it not be done!Nathanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00648438549121320566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-90612566207613515982008-04-05T11:11:00.000-04:002008-04-05T11:11:00.000-04:00Great! Now I have the theme form Gilligan's Isle in my head. I love the fact that Mona has not only survived but thrived...and the fact that Mowat is now also in her personal life....WOOT!kimbyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18202011517037727838noreply@blogger.com
