Iphone here - good ol' thumb speak. I've a challenge. It comes from the 1st craft essay - on the debasing of our lit reactor minds by using symbols and such & how they affect our craft.

Culture shifts - read gulliver's travels lately? The challenge is to create a 250 word (?) story that destroys convention and turns writing on its head. See if u can use symbols, punctuation, CAPS,... You name it - to tell a kick ass story as fast as possible.

I'm new here. Just found the create discussion button. It be :) to meet U!

What do I win?

I want only to win.

It's all I care about.

Winning and rat poison.

@ chester - heard of 'pitchin a tent'? Yeah - its like that but its freakin snake mountain. No gift shop

@ hopkins - {250 words of fun muse rancor presented to a public forum} - how bout a poll after 5-6 people throw down? U win symbolic rat poison - since mailing actual rat poison may be problematic.

:)  --  (3 boys hang out at the oasis)

:)  -- The girls wear bikinis ( . ) ( . )

:(  -- 3 boys stay in water to hide the wanton II!

:(  --  The afternoon wanes.   Time to get out.

Diversion = Ability to leave!

“My Dad says the neighbor’s to demolish his shed tonight - @ work end.”
“I’ve seen that shed – no light to do it – not at works end.”
“Work end’s soon.”
“You ready?”  They eyed each other.  ( . ) ( . ) 

-- Quick – don’t look – don’t listen to the giggles – get out and run across the hot sand.  Away.

MAN DEMOLISHED SHED - THERE IS LIGHT TO SPARE – 3 BOYS = :-0

1.  Boy = ‘it’s a lack of experience’  - leaves… seeks… finds an old building – CRASH, :(
  - Everything is easy, just don’t be dumb.

2. Boy = ‘The MAN is He-Man’ - ? Dad – Dad agrees – Everything becomes too special – Lackaluster…  Slit wrists in warm water
  - Everything is easy, unless you’re dumb.

3. Boy = ,, 1 & 2 think 3’s dumb ,,  - 3 agrees.  ? Dad.  Dad = ‘MAN IS FROM HEAVY G WORLD.’  OH!
  - Everything is easy, even when you’re dumb.
 
3 thinks – ( . ) ( . ) + ( . ) ( . ) + him = a good 3
