No speculative fiction writer would try to explain the whole setting in the first 150 words. The New Beginnings are amusing, but the standards set by the minions are not necessarily functional in the context of writing novels for publication.<BR/><BR/>But hey, they're entertaining. What more can one ask for?HawkOwlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506953701159624542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-1165861661653935612006-12-11T13:27:00.000-05:002006-12-11T13:27:00.000-05:00Anonymous - Good guess, but no. :) "Holiday spirit...Anonymous - Good guess, but no. :) "Holiday spirit" makes me very, very cranky.HawkOwlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506953701159624542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-1165856846734138772006-12-11T12:07:00.000-05:002006-12-11T12:07:00.000-05:00Either I'm getting senile, or the minions are comi...<I>Either I'm getting senile, or the minions are coming around to my way of thinking.</I><BR/><BR/>Naw...its the holiday spirit is working its magic on ya, Hawkowl.

It's the second time this week I've agreed with everyone. Possibly even the third.<BR/><BR/>All the grinning and buddiness aggravated me because I have no idea what they're being cute about. Unless they're gay. And I don't get "the box overflowing his arms." A box is a solid. It doesn't flow. Maybe the contents of the box are overflowing. Unless Dali had something to do with it, then I could see the box "flowing." That would also explain why it "plops."<BR/><BR/>So maybe it's a kind of Dali meets Dune GLBT metafiction experimental type thing. I'd read some of that. But if it's just plain science fiction... I'd pass.HawkOwlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506953701159624542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-1165812094552596602006-12-10T23:41:00.000-05:002006-12-10T23:41:00.000-05:00The continuation was hilarious.The continuation was hilarious.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-1165811396733724512006-12-10T23:29:00.000-05:002006-12-10T23:29:00.000-05:00Hate mail?
