Sionnach-Airgid: Could you please PM me? For some reason I cannot PM you. I keep getting some strange error when I click on your name. *scratches head* I'll respond to your PM with the news article for #4.

earlybird-obi-wan: I sent yours earlier today.

Thank you for participating. A PM has been sent your way.

Perhaps I should have found more news stories! But, I thought it would be interesting if more than one writer would use the same article for inspiration, so I purposely kept it down low. There are only 4 slots open and those who wish to participate after those are taken can choose what others have already... in fact there's no stopping someone from choosing a number someone else has even now. Like I said in my first post, there are enough creative minds here where just because you use the same base for inspiration doesn't mean you'd come up w/ the same storyline.

I'm in the process of writing mine up, since you ask.

The news article was amusing; a particular image (which I also found amusing) sprang to mind and off the muse went. I expect the thing to be relatively short and sweet.

Aha! That's it. Hold it right there.

It's not "he doesn't have to shoot YOU now," it's "he doens't have to shoot ME now."
Well I say he DOES have to shoot me now!! So shoot me now!

Yeah, that article made me think of 1Yodimus_Prime's Starr Wors story (not the story itself though). tongue I look forward to seeing your story. happy

So far we have three great entries. If you haven't already read them, you should check them out. I've started indexing them in my first post.
