Oh no! All of the books were on their way to the new library and the delivery truck got into an accident! It looks like the characters are all messed up! Write a poem that puts some of your favorite characters back into the wrong story(ies)!
Bally Books
Bertie Wooster scraped some Elephant poo from his shoe “I say Jeeves this bally jungle is blasted awful, what’s a fellow to do? Precisely sir, we appear surrounded by screaming apes of some kind I have taken the liberty of putting out your explorer kit I think you’ll find.
Oh bother, I was rather hoping to get in a few games of polo today But with all these flies, and this horrid mud it’s no way Jose, I say Excuse me Sir but there is a Mr. Sheer khan at the tent door He expresses a wish to take you out for lunch at half past four. ~ Great Scott Jeeves, now we’re were back in London I think Perhaps I can get to polo or even the ice rink? Unfortunately not Sir I’ve just spoken to a Mr. M He’s sending us on a mission to hell and back again.
He advised me that our chances of survival are err.. Well there aren’t any And his secretary sends a kiss to you, I think her name was Monypenny I say Jeeves this is a rum ta-doo, at least we have a Bentley and a Bollinger or two Can’t you get me out of this? I mean what’s a fellow to do? ~ Oh crikey Jeeves where are we now? This is really out of order Apparently Sir we have a ring to deliver, the destination? Mordor Not Bally likely Jeeves old boy, can’t you send it in the post? I’m hot and tired and would prefer a weekend on the coast.

| *chuckles* glad to see someone enjoyed my prompt. Nicely done, Foggy, I hadn't thought of Mordor but I suppose the possibilities are endless for this one. | |

Jamie, its a great prompt, I could write em by the dozen, Another good prompt would be a drunken film editor mixes up all the clips off the cutting room floor. Mary Poppins meets The Gladiator. Jack sparrow in Wuthering heights or Ghandi starring in the Godfather. | |

Had We But Worlds Enough, And Time . . . | November 5th 2013, 11:57 am by Jamie | I never wanted to write this post. Life, however, brings to us changes of necessity, not changes we want.
Unfortunately, and as evidenced by the past few months' activities, I do not have the time to properly govern the use of this site anymore. While there are visitors every day, the posts by members are becoming fewer and farther between, and the staff participation is just as sparse.
