FIVE WORD STORIES

The History of the Five Word Stories:
In high school, a group of us used to write stories in Commerce class by passing around a piece of paper with each person adding five words. Our stories would evolve into madness: e.g. Brendan walked into the store and chopped of his penis. He slapped his horse in the butcher’s store where Joe was standing naked in the window.

www.fivewordstories.blogspot.com:
Technology has allowed the creation of this online piece of paper which is to be passed around the globe, incorporating (for the first time) the stupidity of the world’s greatest procrastinators.

The Rules:
1. Each participant must contribute five words to the story.
Note to participants: you will be given admin rights to enable editing of the post. After you have added your five words, please place your name in brackets at the end of the post so as to show the world you are doing nothing at the current time.
2. You may not contribute consecutively.
3.Grammatical conventions must be adhered to.
4. All punctuation marks do not add to the word count, with the exception of a full stop.A full stop counts as one word.
5. Make sure you are quick when posting. Seeing as we are all procrastinating, there is a slight chance that two people may post at the same time.

To Prospective Procrastinators:
1. Come with a recommendation.
2. Please provide your email address so that I can send you an invite.

Okay, i wouldn't mind being a part of this. Once, a long time ago, i remember adding parts to something that was posted as, "The Never Ending Story." I don't know what became of that, but this looks like it would be just as much fun. May I join?

My email is i2digress@aol.com
