Well, This is actually Sarah’s story, but she hasn’t had time to pen it down, so I figured I’d tell the story the way she told it to me. (and just for the record I <---- think it's HILARIOUS) On a daily basis, Sarah has to be at work before I do by about 30 minutes, and due to her "condition" (That's what I call her being female, and having 3 feet of (GORGEOUS) long hair to care for.. and makeup.. and actually wearing outfits that match..) she usually wakes up a full hour and half a head of me, to prepare. Well, apparently I unresponsivly got up and wandered around the house for about 5 - 10 minutes. Sarah kept calling me, but I wouldn't respond. (Apparently this is so normal that she didn't even bother to shake me.. or wonder if I was possessed or under some form of mind control...) After wandering around the house, I walked back into the room and got back into bed. S: "Baby.. What were you looking for" J: "I needed to get a pen and paper" (mumbling) S: "What did you need a pen and paper for?" J: "I needed to write something down really bad" (DUH!) S: "I'll write it down for you.. Let me get a Pen" J: "OKAY" (mumbling the whole time) S: "Okay, what do you need me to write down?" Well I had to say it 4 times for her apparently, but I was very patient (which when I"m waking up is about the only time I'm NOT.. but trust me.. I'm not a nice guy early in the morning :-( ) And this is what she wrote down.. a note that I found this afternoon and had to ASK her about: "Distopian Society Redrover Population Control"
P.S: A brief explanation
Now Steven and I are amateur writers, and we have tons of ideas but no self control to actually go write them all out on paper. When I come across writing ideas, I try and go find a paper to write it down on. (You know.. just in case THAT particular idea was the one to rocket me straight to New York Times Best Selling list.)
So.. I guess the only question to ask is… “Would you read a book about a Society that kept their population under control by killing of those who couldn’t break the hands in a large red rover game (and if they did break the hands those who got their grip broken would then be killed)? WEll,? Would you?! ( I have to put questions like this.. or no one will comment on my posts and then I”ll never know if anyone ever read them.
Well I read The Running Man by Steven King…
And Survivor and all those other shows are still selling…
