NEW OLD WRITING GAME
SOME OF YOU WANTED TO CONTINUE THE GAME. It was getting a little long in the tooth, so let's start a new one. Remember, your posting must begin with the last word of the last posting. See firt reply.
A FUN EXERCISE
This could be fun!
When you look in the mirror, you see beyond the glass into a parallel world where you are greeted by identical twins who look just like you.....

JUST GOSSIP
Got something you want to say? You don't have to be a writer to voice your opinion about something or share a tidbit with everybody else. We are resurrecting the Gossip Thread. Sound off = you can treat this as a mini blog if you want to - just keep it from being XXX rated.
I'LL BE GONE FOR A WHILE
I’ll be leaving on Friday the fifth and won’t be back until the wee hours on the fifteenth. I’m going to CO to visit relatives and will meet one of my great grandson’s who is around nine months old already. I have another great grandson in WI, born last month, I haven’t seen yet either. My ‘greats’ now total ten!!! Just four more and the ‘greats’ will tie with the ‘grands’. How blessed I am... being an only child.
Word for the day.
I like learning new words and maybe even getting a chance to use them in writing. Here's a proposal for a daily exercise: Each of us - if you care to - present a new word here when the notion strikes you. Doesn't have to be one you know. Find one that piques your interest in the dictionary and post it and it's meanings here. My first offering will be in the first reply.
Chopping Cotton: The Waterboss

It introduces Frank Welton's oldest daughter, Betty Jo. Critiques are appreciated.

If You're Still Up
Hey gang - it's 10:45 PM CDT - if you're still up and still on Eons, here's something for a little laugh :
An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.
> The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, 'Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly.'
> The other man said, 'What is the name of the restaurant?'
> The first man thought and thought and finally said, 'What is the name of
> that flower you give to someone you love?
> You know... The one that's red and has thorns.'
> 'Do you mean a rose?'
> 'Yes, that's the one,' replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, 'Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to
> last night?'
