Had an idea for something different for a post.... <br /> How about some short stories? They don't have to be great, they can be serious, funny, mystery, adventure, as long as they are fiction. Anyone interested? I have one I was thinking about posting...we could do them in installments, and then let the other viewers decided if they want each story to continue or give it the thumbs down sign. So pretty much it's up to the readers to decide if the author's story stinks or is worth reading another chapter of. These stories also have to be by the person submitting them, so you can't use something you have read, or someone else has written and call it your own. <br /> Okay, just let me know yes or no on this and we will go from there. I will give this post 2 days to decide on it. (Unless of course we get a lot of yes/no's before then lol) <br /> <br /> Always, <br /> Mo Funsy Pleasures

I don't think anyone would like to hear that their effort "stinks". <br /> One thumbs down review and that person isn't going to bother doing anything more after that ! <br /> <br /> Let's see what the other opinions will be. <br /> Do we have that many writers here ? <br /> I know that you have done some short stories.

Well maybe a thumbs down would be harsh, but I was just trying to figure out a way to do it. I guess if there are enough people interested in doing it, and their stories stink, people can just not read anymore lol <br /> You don't have to be a "writer" to write you know...I was thinking more along the lines of just having fun. As for my "short stories" well I never said they were any good you know <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />

I think what I was trying to do is kind of like this little writers group collage class that I took for a short time, where people would write a short story, and the others would read it and then comment on it, without being mean or nasty...kind of like how we comment on each others artwork. But your right, if there's no interest, then so be it. <br /> <br /> GP

Guilty, I vote for Yes! <br /> <br /> I am a budding hack and, well, why not <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> It's up to Tormie really. If he wants to put in a special forum for it or just make it part of another forum. <br /> <br /> I would happily moderate unless Guilty wants the huge responsibility <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> Maybe she should earn her keep, rather than just wasting electrons <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Well then Tormie gets to toss the coin, although we haven't yet heard from Ken on this...he's most likely curled up next to the tuna tarts sleeping though. <br /> I don't care who moderate's it...I never actually got that far in my thinking...I was just going to post mine in my forum, but hey, if it's a go and Tormie wants to make a special forum for it, and select a moderator that's fine with me too. <br /> <br /> and just to let you know, I have never wasted any of my electrons...I've been collecting them in a big bucket for years. I have enough now to start selling them off on E-Bay! <br /> <br /> Always and mostly <br /> Guilty Pleasures

I've to escape to Milan now... But it's ok for me. naturally who had the idea will take care of it... For new forum no problem for me, we have enough free space on the server.... <br /> <br /> I must go now, see you later in the afternoon (here)

I was just being a bit silly about the moderator stuff, all that's up to Tormie. Just a bit of leg pulling about your electrons, but as your so frugal in their use...

I've got stories. Unfrotunately, most of them are reserved for poser projects.. and I'm not good at writing stuff <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" />

I won the Virtualsite's contest at poserpros <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> (the price was a Posette <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/heartbeat.gif" alt="" /> ...)

My short story..... <br /> ahem.... <br /> there once was a guy named landman..... <br /> then end..... <br /> thank you very much.....

First, stop pulling my leg Ozy, it hurts!! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_doh.gif" alt="" /> <br /> Second, Ken, you don't need to write them, you can type them, and just make up more stuff that isn't for your pictures lol <br /> Third, Congrats Tormentor on your winnings. Good Job!! <br /> Fourth, ahh landman....your story sucks! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/qright3.gif" alt="" /> <br /> Go back to the fridge until you can come up with more young man! <br /> <br /> Always, <br /> GP

Well Ozy, I guess you and I can just tell stories to each other then...the rest can read them, or thow pickles at them or feed them to their dog. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />

Better that telling them to the cat. He doesn't even understand english as simple as, <br /> <br /> "No" <br /> <br /> "Dont scratch the lounge." <br /> <br /> "Not inside, Bad Cat." <br /> <br /> Etc.... <br /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />

What competition did you win, Tormentor? <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> I don't remember the comp at all. Please post a link so we can go and view your masterpiece. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />

Yes I wanna see too tormentor! <br /> <br /> Oh and I also have been learning to speak Italian! Check this out: Finamente Rallado, Seis Quesos Italianos, frescura garantizada! TaDa!! I could show you more, but I don't have my glasses on to read the fine print on the borden shredded cheese package. Oh, we had home made pizza tonight! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Mmmmh.... I see now at Poserpros and it seems they have erased the topic, I'm very sorry about this, (the only contest I won).... <br /> <br /> Any way, VirtualSite posted an image with a soldier who kept a man (the "wanderer" of an old VirtualSite serie) and you had to write a story about this. I wrote: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The God's eye. <br /> <br /> " What's the problem ? " asked the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de]. <br /> <br /> " He said nobody can approach ", answered the [i:b1efee72de]Cat[/i:b1efee72de]. <br /> <br /> " There isn't problem,if you don't come near it, Sir " said the [i:b1efee72de]Soldier[/i:b1efee72de], " I'm here to keep people away from it. Orders, Orders exact obedience, so one more step, Sir, and I'll show you the results of a long military training " <br /> <br /> " Ok, calm down, that light is [i:b1efee72de]so[/i:b1efee72de] beautiful... We would only look at it... Closer " <br /> <br /> " All civilians say the same words... Later you'd succeed only to do a big mess ! Better to look at it from here, trust me. " <br /> <br /> " But... it's been a long way, tell me something more. why it can't be touched ? " <br /> <br /> " I don't know, actually nobody know why, surely nobody know what could happen, I never saw anybody who touched it, but... this means nothing, it doesn't mean that it isn't [i:b1efee72de]extremely[/i:b1efee72de] dangerous.... " <br /> <br /> " I don't understand " said the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de], twisting his head. ( The [i:b1efee72de]cat[/i:b1efee72de] begin a little toilet using his tongue, nonchalant ) <br /> <br /> " I'm here since a long time, you know, they taught me that "<b> THE DEFENSE OF THE FATHERLAND ALSO MEANS TO WATCH A GASOLINE TANK </b>", and this isn't so different.... Nevertheless... I think that it's natural to wonder something... Sometimes... " <br /> <br /> " Everyday here comes the [i:b1efee72de]Demiurge[/i:b1efee72de] and pray. He passes near me and bless my weapons. I asked him an answer, but... But [i:b1efee72de]his[/i:b1efee72de] answer was worse than the doubt itself... " <br /> <br /> " Cool... go on " <br /> <br /> " Mmmh... He said nobody know what could happen, in fact nobody ever touched it, and that weren't be other guards here, only me, simply nobody -succeeded- in touching it, guard or not, but I must keep all people far away from it at all costs. " <br /> <br /> "so you are here for... what ? If nobody can touch it where [i:b1efee72de]is[/i:b1efee72de] the problem ? " <br /> <br /> " The [i:b1efee72de]Demiurge[/i:b1efee72de] said it is the [i:b1efee72de]God's eye[/i:b1efee72de], and if you touch it, you'll attract his rage, because God doesn't want that we look at his reign. God created us like his imagine and resemblance, but.. this is the strangeness... It seems our world is better than [i:b1efee72de]his[/i:b1efee72de]... And that God used to be very angry if one of us try to see how it's made. " <br /> <br /> " Our world... Better than God's ? We... Better than our Creator ? " <br /> <br /> " Listen to me, You should talk with the [i:b1efee72de]Demiurge[/i:b1efee72de] <br /> when he'll come here.... It seems strange to me too... <br /> He let me look at a sacred book, with pictures... Horrible pictures... Gods who change... Mutations... and at the end of the metamorphosis they... Cease " <br /> <br /> " [i:b1efee72de]CEASE[/i:b1efee72de] ?? What you mean with [i:b1efee72de]CEASE[/i:b1efee72de] ? " <br /> <br /> " They don't move anymore, they disintegrate their bodies " <br /> <br /> " It makes me sick ! How you can believe in these things ? [i:b1efee72de]WHO[/i:b1efee72de] would believe in these words ? <br /> " <br /> <br /> " Sir, in my classification there are : first [i:b1efee72de]God[/i:b1efee72de], second [i:b1efee72de]Fatherland[/i:b1efee72de] and third [i:b1efee72de]Family[/i:b1efee72de], this is enough for me and [i:b1efee72de]now[/i:b1efee72de] if you please go away... " <br /> <br /> " BULLSHITS ! ", said the cat, We know religion can survive only with people's ignorance, I came here to see the [i:b1efee72de]God's eye[/i:b1efee72de] -<b>closer</b>- and if you think you can stop me with that M-16, you took aim at the wrong cat, [i:b1efee72de]DUFFELBAG[/i:b1efee72de]! " <br /> <br /> Then the [i:b1efee72de]cat[/i:b1efee72de] leaped over the [i:b1efee72de]soldier[/i:b1efee72de] boots, running to the [i:b1efee72de]eye[/i:b1efee72de] <br /> <br /> "STOP ! FREEZE NOW, or I'll shoot you ! " <br /> <br /> " Shoot my ASS ! It doesn't matter, I can't [i:b1efee72de]CEASE[/i:b1efee72de], turd ! And now, I show you all your sillines ! LOOK ! " <br /> <br /> The [i:b1efee72de]cat[/i:b1efee72de] approaches the [i:b1efee72de]eye[/i:b1efee72de]... <br /> <br /> " LET ME GO ! " said the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de] <br /> " No, NO, he's touching it ! " <br /> <br /> (note: you can see this scene in the picture) <br /> <br /> ... <br /> <br /> "...I said you'll attract his rage, because God doesn't want that we look at his reign... But, are you listening to me ? " <br /> <br /> " Yes, yes... I was thinking that I ever desired a pet since I was a child, maybe a little dog, but my parent did never bought an animal to me... I don't know why I keep in mind this... Now... " <br /> <br /> " But... Uh, what a wonderful weapon you have !... And you succeed to manage it with a single hand ! Cool ! " <br /> <br /> " Uh, yes, she's my Baby " and began to caress the gun, looking at it voluptuously... <br /> <br /> Immediately the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de] takes advantage of the situation, a sudden slap and the rifle is on the floor and he is running to the light... <br /> <br /> " I cheated you, [i:b1efee72de]DUFFELBAG[/i:b1efee72de] ! " <br /> <br /> " NO! NO ! STOP ! FREEEZE !! " <br /> <br /> ... <br /> <br /> " ... I let the rifle fall down... One more time... I begin to think this work causes me sickness. I must stop to talk alone, CONCENTRATE YOURSELF ! " <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> (fortunatly I had a copy in my hd)

Ah, and *ehm* Guiltyplesures, I don't really know how to tell you this... But your is not italian <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> , or: it is italian like my english is english <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_doh.gif" alt="" /> <br /> eheheh... <br /> <br /> If you want to practice in foreign languages there is my old interview with Posette that I have promised to Ozymandias to translate (ZZZzzzz....): <br /> <br /> <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://www.secondapelle.it/posette/index.htm" target="_blank">http://www.secondapelle.it/posette/index.htm</a>

Tormentor, your story is very, very good, I really enjoyed reading that and I wish I could have seen the picture that went with it. You are a very good story teller! Congradulation again. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> About my Italian...you mean I can't speak it after all my hard work? <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/sad.gif" alt="" /> The rolling of the pizza dough, the sweating heat of the oven, the sprinkling on of the Finamente Rallado, Seis Quesos, oh mama mia! Well that does it, I'm going to sue the Bordens company for false Italian on their cheese products! <br /> "Guilty Pleasures calls Landmans's lawyer Mr. Crabs" <br /> <br /> Gp

<blockquote class="quote"><div class="quote-nouser">Quote:</div><div class="post-text"> <br /> Finamente Rallado, Seis Quesos, oh mama mia <br /> </div></blockquote> <br /> <br /> It's not italian, I think is spanish... Anyway I can understand only "oh mama mia" (in italian is : oh mamma mia), I think it's a phrase suppose to be spoken often by italian, but here there are a more strong expressions in use, for example: " Oh, C....O" (I can't write the term here... <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> "

Oh well that figures, leave it to me to screw up the great Italian language! sheesh!! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> You know what really irks me, my bf is half Italian (his mother is full blood Italian) and he can't speak a word of it!! Now don't that beat all? <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/sad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_doh.gif" alt="" /> <br /> Always, <br /> Very depressed Pleasures

Oh! I think it's very difficult to learn... I studied latin at high school and can remember very little, latin is difficult as German, I lived in Germany for a while but I spoke english...

I wish I had taken the time to learn a second language when I was in school. I know a few words of spanish and fewer still of german. I would also learn to speak french, as it has always sounded like such a romantic language to me. But alas I'm too old to learn it all now lol <br /> <br /> Always, <br /> GP

Pffft... they should make english the primary language for all countries, and whatever used to be their primary language their secondary..

I'm an esperanto fan, but it seems that language don't spread a lot...

Now I remember the competition Tormentor. I remember the image too. Well done and good story, it suits the style of VS's images and own stories too.
