Here is a story I wrote based on the given picture, taken by d_r_o_n_e, and we said, "Why don't we write a story on how that car got there, or based around that car, so, the following, is one (and mind you it's not fully complete and not SPELLCHECKED (dan4th), but, it's a starting point, so if you want to, let me know what you think.

wow kk, that's really good.

[karbonkid]

thank you, kind sir! See, you should write from some of the pictures you take. I had actually gotten the idea from that one of the WT kid at Easter and then just got to thinking. It's a good exercise, I think. Try it! You like cars... :)

P.S. - Just thanks for everything in general. You know what I mean.

Hey - any favor I might have done for you (pl) is just payback for kindness and favors received last year.

And I have a better idea - why don't YOU write from my photos? I take pictures good, but I can't write fiction worth a damn.

Send me a good one...and I'll do it for ya!

In the immortal words of the Bloodhound Gang:

Oh the lap dance is always better when the stripper is cryin'

I never in a million years fancied you as a Bloodhound Gang fan. Never.

Heheheheheheeh.

I put a lot of thought in it. Too much probably. This is straight from my head to the paper, but, I want to tool it alot more and bring out the metaphors and highten some other aspects so it has more umph and subtlety at the same time.

And thank you as well, monkey du sex.

Very cool.

Twisted and creepy, but cool. I also really like the idea of writing a story based on a picture.

I kind of heard "Used To Love Her" by Guns N' Roses in my head as I read this.

Re: Very cool.

You are more than welcome to join the club, sir. Or, you know, if you have another picture in mind. It's kind of fun, cause, I think everyone unconsciously does it, you know, when you see something wierd like that. I always imagine the movie 'Wonderboys' when I do stuff like that, though.

Twisted and creepy is really how I like to write. I honestly don't think I've ever written anything where someone doesn't die. I've come to the conclusion that that is how my necrophobia effects me or something.

[karbonkid]
