OMG Funny email story

noreply@blogger.com (Capt'n Mike) — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 20:20:00 +0000

Here's a prime example of 'Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus'
offered
by an English professor from the University of Phoenix .

The professor told his class one day, 'Today we will experiment with a
new
form called the tandem story. The process is simple. Each person will
pair off with the person sitting to his or her immediate right. As homework
tonight, one of you will write the first paragraph of a short story.
You will e-mail your partner that paragraph and send another copy to me.

The partner will read the first paragraph and then add another paragraph to the story and send it back, also sending another copy to me. The first person will then add a third paragraph, and so on back-and-forth. Remember to re-read what has been written each time in order to keep the story coherent. There is to be absolutely no talking outside of the e-mails and anything you wish to say must be written in the e-mail. The story is over when both agree a conclusion has been reached.'

The following was actually turned in by two of his students, Rebecca and Gary .

THE STORY
(1st paragraph by Rebecca)

At first, Laurie couldn't decide which kind of tea she wanted. The chamomile, which used to be her favorite for lazy evenings at home, now reminded her too much of Carl, who once said, in happier times, that he liked chamomile. But she felt she must now, at all costs, keep her mind off Carl. His possessiveness was suffocating, and if she thought about him too much her asthma started acting up again. So chamomile was out of the question.

(2nd paragraph by Gary )

Meanwhile, Advance Sergeant Carl Harris, leader of the attack squadron now in orbit over Skylon 4, had more important things to think about than the neuroses of an air-headed asthmatic bimbo named Laurie with whom he had spent one sweaty night over a year ago. 'A.S. Harris to Geostation 17,' he said into his transgalactic communicator. 'Polar orbit established. No sign of resistance so far...' But before he could sign off a bluish particle BEAM FLASHED out of nowhere and blasted a hole through his ship's cargo bay. The jolt from the direct hit sent him flying out of his seat and across the cockpit.

(Rebecca)

He bumped his head and died almost immediately, but not before he felt one last pang of regret for psychically brutalizing the one woman who had ever had feelings for him. Soon afterwards, Earth stopped its pointless hostilities towards the peaceful farmers of Skylon 4. 'Congress Passes Law Permanently Abolishing War and Space Travel, 'Laurie read in her newspaper one morning. The news simultaneously excited her and bored her. She stared out the window, dreaming of her youth, when the days had passed unhurriedly and carefree, with no newspaper to read, no television to distract her from her sense of innocent wonder at all the beautiful things around her. 'Why must one lose one's innocence to become a woman?' she wondered wistfully.

(Gary)

Little did she know, but she had less than 10 seconds to live. Thousands of miles above the city, the Anudrian mothership launched the first of its lithium fusion missiles. The dim-witted wimpy peaceniks who pushed the Unilateral Aerospace disarmament Treaty through the congress had left Earth a defenseless target for the hostile alien empires who were determined to destroy the human race. Within two hours after the passage of the treaty the Anudrian ships were on course for Earth, carrying enough firepower to pulverize the entire planet. With no one to stop them, they swiftly initiated their diabolical plan. The lithium fusion missile entered the
atmosphere unimpeded. The President, in his top-secret mobile submarine headquarters on the ocean floor off the coast of Guam, felt the inconceivably massive explosion, which vaporized poor, stupid Laurie.

(Rebecca)

This is absurd. I refuse to continue this mockery of literature. My writing
partner is a violent, chauvinistic, semi-literate adolescent.

(Gary)

Yeah? Well, my writing partner is a self-centered tedious neurotic whose attempts at writing are the literary equivalent of Valium. 'Oh, shall I have chamomile tea? Or shall I have some other sort of F**KING TEA ???! Oh no, WHAT AM I to do? I'm such an air headed bimbo who reads too many Danielle Steele novels!'

(Rebecca)

Asshole

(Gary)

Bitch

(Rebecca)

F$%^ YOU, YOU NEANDERTHAL!

(Gary)

Go drink some tea, whore.

(TEACHER)

A+ . . . I really liked this one.

The first one I think I look rather heavy, the second one is me being
goofy and the last one is me and the lady. Sadly the camera had some
water spots on it.

Okay, so here is a real update by jott,or with jott I guess I should say. I am doing well. Last night work really late till 10:30 working on some projects with [unclear speech, please listen] because as for closure become more popular or need to have people becomes greater and then the amount of people I have to support becomes greater but I have a really good team my boss is really good and my coworkers are pretty on the ball, but it's just a lot of work and nothing really has been changed that. So hope everything else is going well with everyone else out in the world. Probably gonna put some pictures up me and the girlfriend when out to Jet ski last Friday and let me tell if you never got any Jet Ski it's a blast. Had a lot of fun went to Woody's(?) water sport.. listen

Okay, so check this out. I am using a new service called Jott, in order to update my blog. Jott allows me to call a number and then record a voice mail message that is then delivered to my blog, as you can see. So this is my long winded test to see how well this service works. I hope, I feel very interested in it, it is exceptionally resourceful. We can send e-mails, text messages, you can send reminders, it even updates all of your blogs, as well as, some other web pages like forget the milk, or other, such as that. I'm trying to remember now. But this is just a test to see if how well it works, and here's the web page: www.google.com and pirateforhire.com. listen

Some Entertainment

noreply@blogger.com (Capt'n Mike) — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 12:48:00 +0000

Okay so lately two shows have come to my attention. One is John Adams staring Paul Giamatti as Adams. It is a mini-series on HBO highlighting the first 50 of the US. Based on a book written bu David McCullough it is a very well done drama. The interaction with the characters is impressive. I like that I am seeing my own countries history in a way like when they did Rome. It is on 9 PM on Sundays EST on HBO, I am sure it will be on HBO On Demand.

The other show is a much lighter-hearted affair. Is Miss Guided starring Judy Greer as a High School Guidance couselor, at the school she graduated from. When she was there she was just a nerdy girl. It seems to be a better written version of the show Teachers, RIP, a show which I enjoyed as did my brother and my friend Ryan, who are both High School teachers. The show is very fun, most of the comedy ends up being at the expense of the main character but as in all good sitcoms it gets worked out in the end. Miss Guided is on Thursday nights at 8:30EST

Also if you haven't noticed I have linked my twitter account under my blog posts. Now if you have nothing better you can follow me throughout my day. Updates are fairly regular and probably the most dull fun you can have for free.

Some Quiz Taking fun..:)

Just a little message, I added a link/ad from the people over at VAJoe.com if you needed help picking a candidate. I was surprised who I came up with.

Pass it on maybe we can have more issue voters then popular candidate voters.

noreply@blogger.com (Capt'n Mike) — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 13:15:00 +0000

Sunday we had our christmas. Since Jason is going to be away with his lady friend this holiday. I got money from the parents for a underwater digital camera(I ordered it that night from amazon) cannot wait until it arrives. I also ended up with a wine preservation kit from Adam and Michelle I know it seemed an odd gift to me too, but I might just have to buy a bottle of wine to test it. That evening we went to my church for what is titled "festival of lessons and carols" it was very nice. Even ran into an old friend or two. Glad that everyone is doing good.

Okay I will post a review of the camera when i get it.

Smooth Sailing

Here is where we went to lunch. Ban Thai on Gunn near Anderson. Sorry for the terrible picture my new itouch from HTC doesn't have a camera. Check it out.

I like it, it is a wanna be iPhone is a lotta ways. It uses the Windows Mobile 6 with the TouchFLO software. It originally had WiFi and GPS. Both seemed to have beeen removed in the Sprint one. Internet browsing on it is pretty good the EVDO Revision A network is impressive.

I dongled it with my laptop and I was able to get 100k downloads from some site on the opennet. A good show while I was in Miami. I even started to download the WOW updates but I was REALLY far behind. I haven't tried attaching it via the bluetooth but the next road trip I will give that a shot.

My New Laptop
