The Challenge

There are too many stories. Too many stories to share, too many stories to hear. I don't care. I like them. I like mine and I like others'. So... I offer up a challenge. To my bloggers in kind, all storytellers par excellence, I challenge you to tell a story. But not just any story. I want the stories that no one ever believes; the ones that, though true, defy comprehension when shared. We all have those incidents in our pasts that, when they took place, we knew no one was ever going to buy. Lay yours on me.

The challenge goes out to Banks, Rebecca, Goz, Bluestem, and Curry (minus the "a"s), as well as anyone else up for the work. If you have no blog, drop it in my comments. The cut-off is Sunday, the 20th, though it's not a hard date. I will post mine, the following Monday or Tuesday, depending on how much energy the House of Mouse sucks from me (I don't even know which story I will choose yet). If you make one up, I guess that's ok - who would know - but you have true ones, so why waste them. Consider this my glove across your cheek.

I should add, this ain't a contest mes amis; just a glorious conflagration.

Wow, tagged by Flak. What a bloggy honor. Let me percolate on this a bit. I'll brew up something strong and caffeinated if I can.
