Okay, I' bored. I mean really bored. So, I've come up with a new thing to do. I'll start off with a couple of sentences, and all you have to do is add a new one. When there are enough sentences, I'll put them all together, write a story, and post the story. Remember guys, keep it clean.

In the midle of cleaning my kitchen, I noticed that I ran out of 409. So I got in my car to drive to the grocery store.

    I decided to take a different route, other than the one I usually take.

    As I came to the intersection of 5th and Main, I saw something really strange.
    1. aqualightphoto
      So I got out of the car and was grabbed from behind
  3. thelookout
    The man with the banana just wouldn't let me go!
  4. melbs1969
    I stepped on his foot, the space between his big toe and his next toe, really hard with my stiletto heel...which, I always wear to the grocery store. You never know who you're going to run into!
  5. Krokodil
    "Cranky Bitch!" he shouted. "What did you do that for? Look! I'm bleeding."
  6. acousticguitarist
    Then I realized it was Carlos, oh no not Carlos.
  7. kab625
    Carlos Santana! Of all people. What is he doing here?
  8. careysaysums
    And why is he barefoot? He looks like he's been out in the weather and busking for some time now. HIs face cracks from the chilled air.
  9. acousticguitarist
    But I looked again ,could it be him or did he have a doppleganger?
  10. melbs1969
    Then, I said to myself..."What the heck am I thinking? I don't even know what a doppleganger is!" Oh, how I hate when I have these people talking in my head.
    1. Krokodil
      Its somebody who looks just like you (in German)
  11. jackpayne
    He told me to meet him at the corner of Walk and Don't Walk. Have you got a Google map?
  12. melbs1969
    i have my lap top but, there is no free wi-fi connection. sorry, mate.
  13. acousticguitarist
    ohhh... there's that thought again, the hack, use it..no don't, yes, no, yes ...I was almost busted using it...oh what the heck...they won't know, I need it now.
  14. globalgirl
    "Be quiet!" I scream to the voices in my head, I've got things to do, people to see, and places to go, with my laptop in tow!
  15. MartinPlatt
    Then I wake up, and realise that the banana has been joined by a sponge, a walking jelly, and a bit of custard. Man, I wouldn't trifle with them.
  16. lamenews
    I log onto lamenews.blogspot.com/ as per usual.
  17. libdrone
    escaping my reverie I realize I am in the Cleaning Supplies aisle. I reach for the bottle of 409
  18. globalgirl
    and dance and sing down the aisle, knowing my hero was awaiting me down yonder
  19. MartinPlatt
    And remember to apologise to Carlos the talking banana. As I pay and walk out of the store, I'm thinking what a cool day so far. But what adventures can I have with this bottle of 409 (by the way, what is a bottle of 409, I think...)
  20. globalgirl
    the compulsion to clean all that I see with the voices and thoughts whistling through me
    1. MartinPlatt
      I look around. Who said that.... who said that... Those voices, they really confuse me. I don't know reality from well not reality... I mean, I really don't like cleaning, or whistling!
  21. libdrone
    (a genie pops up and sings a jingle for Formula 409, the powerful spray cleaner)
  22. globalgirl
    The genie his twin found him again!
  23. MartinPlatt
    Genie, and his twin, Genie (their parents though they were comedians in the 60s) are happily hugging, when another voice is heard... RODNEY!
  24. libdrone
    Rodney Dangerfield blunders into the scene from another set muttering "I don't get no respect".
  25. globalgirl
    Genie Squared glanced this way and that and realized the call came from the doll
  26. MartinPlatt
    Both Genie, and his twin Genie, look at each other, and ask, "who me?"
    1. exinco
      they look each other again(can't believe) and shout "who me doesn't matter" we supposed to grocery store now!!
  27. MartinPlatt
    The Genie twins, known for their ability to stop a good story in their tracks thought that it was about time for a night out of the town. So, what did they do???
  28. globalgirl
    No, we sing, all the voices within - let's go the mountains and play with the titans
    1. MartinPlatt
      Unfortunately, not being knowledgeable with song lyrics, the brothers Gneie don't know that song, so they hum instead. But the voices in their head strangely seemed to know the words...
    2. globalgirl
      (there is no song - they went to the mountains to play with the titans!
  29. acousticguitarist
    And then remembered what Leo Kottke said, hum it backwards and it's out of phase.
  30. globalgirl
    so backwards and forwards they go with the song, and then they played scrabble and babbled along
  31. libdrone
    our poor heroine grips the steering wheel tightly willing the voices in her head to SHUT UP. She takes her keys and the spray cleaner and walks back into the house.
  32. funepets
    Only to find that her hubby had cleaned up the mess himself. :-)
  33. globalgirl
    She throws her keys onto the table, grinning with awe of her fantastical mind, thinking its done, the great day is done.
  34. acousticguitarist
    oh no...there on the couch, her mother in law, and she's there to stay.
  35. retract
    What on earth was she doing with that bottle of Mr. Clean?
  36. Xight
    The room is silent, but the tension is unbearable. The woman, and her mother in law glare at each other, each with their own bottles to do battle against the next poor spot of grime. Then off in the kitchen the sound of pots hitting the floor break the tension.
  37. libdrone
    As one the two women descend on the kitchen to find the husband has unleashed an avalanche of cookware from a cabinet.
  38. melbs1969
    and he was cooking up a mean quiche.
  39. MartinPlatt
    The quiche was particularly mean because the husband put anchovies on him.

    In the background, he could hear the TV blaring, but wasn't sure what channel it was or, the program...
  40. melbs1969
    or if the voices were starting to project outside her head...
  41. acousticguitarist
    and the mother in law just hates anchovies...ha.ha.haa she thought.
  42. melbs1969
    just wait until i go into anaphylactic shock and he has to resuscitate me. that'll teach him!
  43. globalgirl
    With her cane in hand in her polka dot dress, she circled around...
  44. MartinPlatt
    She danced, oh! how she danced. A vision of pure joy and happiness in a polka dot dress with a cane. Then the phone rang, who was it?
  45. wenfri
    It was that man that makes up Jingles for old commercials and asking if you know the jingle to 409

    Of course you do
    409, grease cleaner, yeah, it's the one 409, this cleaner puts grease on the run 409, 409, put grease on the run
  46. Madlabent
    Movies made me do it.
  47. MartinPlatt
    Wondering which nutcase was singing complete nonesense to her, she shrugged. "Must be the voices, they're phoning me up" she thought. What a very strange day she was having. Now, where are those Genie twins at?
  48. globalgirl
    "Stop the insanity!" she screamed with great command, twirling around to see her husband standing there. Her husband walked towards her beckoning her forth, telling her it's time to put things at rest!
  49. mdsanta
    The End. (oh wait, that's not right..)
  50. acousticguitarist
    help...maybe it's the end of the Mother in law , quick, she past out...bucket of water...quick
    1. globalgirl
      oh let her go, let her give us all rest
  51. globalgirl
    So the next morning, at half past 10, they looked out the window and saw...
  52. MartinPlatt
    ... a parade of one-eyed pygmy mexicans singing and carrying on. But what did it all mean? Was mother really dead, and did we really waste all that precious water? And what do we now do about it. With so many questions, they decided to go and get a coffee, it will all make sense then. At the coffee table...
  53. funepets
    we decided to give up drinking coffee....thinking that caffeine was the cause of..
  54. MartinPlatt
    ...the end to world peace. Coffee is just such a bad thing, it makes you hear voices, see twin genies and call the Genie, beat up the in laws. You can't read coffee like you can tea.

  58. acousticguitarist
    And then a monstrous wave of emotion came thundering in, all those childhood memerios, driving in the car singing zipededooda, lemon trees, dad at the wheel, mum being neourotic in the frint and little brother with his finger up his nose. Doe a deer, Julie Andrews, the clothes, the apron, the people pretending they were playing guitar...no not that song, anything but.
  59. globalgirl

  63. Krokodil
    Jason Bourne and his new partner, Harvey Keitel. But first they needed to hire a trailer, because Harvey won't come without his Harley.
  64. globalgirl
    So the clan rattled and roared as they drove up and down the bumpy, curvy roads, with Harvey sitting on the bars of the Fat Boy (Harley motorcycle)and Jason Bourne riding the cycle, leading them on!

    Okay everyone. Come back next week to see the results. This should be very interesting. In the meantime, try my new discussion, "Things to do with Christmas Decorations After the Holidays."
  73. retract
    Sorry guys, it is taking longer than anticipated to write this story. The holiday season has started, and I am totally swamped. Anyway, I am still working on it, and hope to have it completed shortly.
  74. AainaA
    but it was the alarm bell in my head. LOL
  75. oren
