Well, I've written something, but given the o'clock I'm wondering if I should sleep on it...


Edit: Probably should have, didn't. Hopefully I won't regret it when I wake up.

Interesting, Cul, quite interesting. It's too easy to tie theme and genre together here, yet opens up a lot of possible twists. And post-apocalyptic is awesome. At least you didn't pull a Chrispy.

I'm almost afraid to ask what you mean about that. On another note, I tried the challenge though.

Great buckets of bullfrogs! Two tales already within three hours!

Oh man, I can't think of "Jack Squat" right now. I like the post-apocalyptic idea immensely, but I'm drawing a huge blank in my mind right now.

Ah well, it will come to me sooner or later.........

"Me gotta tink".

Well, sorry, I just wanted to see if the sucky poem was the best I could do.

When Chrispy won the challenge, he decided to throw us a curveball in his settings by requiring us to have Kipling-themed entries.

I'll just say that I did seem to have the lion's share of complaints about it, hehehe.

I thought your story was very good Lilmizflashythang. I was just surprised how fast you submitted it, you've got a quick mind, and that's a good thing.

Same goes for AMB.

You're too kind. I was just doodling. Just like in sixth grade, doodling. I still don't know what they saw in that poem.
