OMG â€“ Brad is in last place

To paraphrase Lance Armstrong during the Tour de France ... "I'm just pacing myself during the early stages, while the young n00bs exhaust themselves vying for first in a breakaway pack. "

Poor Elvis.

He's staying at the "heartbreak hotel."

Kahrey · Post by **Kahrey** » Sun Jan 23, 2005 4:04 pm

For some reason....

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Sun Jan 23, 2005 9:34 pm

ECM!!!!! You big turdball!!!!

You killed Elvis! I had plans for him.

Oh, well.....I'll start working on some GOOD plans for that young, pale forensics officer....BIG plans...painful plans.

Heh he heh

Nice bit for your first Volleyball....even if you did kill elvis

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Sun Jan 23, 2005 10:11 pm

I didn't realise who I killed. I thought it was just 'he'. I had to change half of what I did cos I only read the last paragraph of Kahrey's one. It was originally ganna be a b-grade zombie story.

Kahrey · Post by **Kahrey** » Sun Jan 23, 2005 10:14 pm

Yeah, I can always figure out to bring characters back though....

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Sun Jan 23, 2005 10:15 pm

I think Elvis is past resurrection stage, I'm sorry.

Kahrey · Post by **Kahrey** » Sun Jan 23, 2005 10:20 pm

Oh, I can ALWAYS bring someone back....

Better watch out, ECM - my guess is those plans include the words "auger" and "goulash."

Not only that, but somehow you transported him through space from just outside his high school's restroom to some fancy house that was not his own. (Elvis lives in a trailer.)

Heh heh.

You silly boy.

Very good, Kahrey

Sometimes he wished he could just live it all out . . . the bathroom door and slid down, holding his book to his chest . . .
then we may be reunited.

Good writing EMC

)

. . . who had disturbed his self-misery . . . after the 5th foray into the ruined house returned paled and quiet . . . recruit extra staff to handle the influx of raving patients.
