Marius. I meant that I could see the story moved into a larger format. Guy or Gal wakes up, opens the cabinet and chooses between "Guilt be Gone, Jealousy be Gone, Hatred be Gone". Whatever. It just has more potential as a short story or novella. I really like it so far. |

Tee hee, giraffe and marius are on the same page! Heading back to the drawing board because yes, kept wondering what was in the other bottles. There were about 20 of them and they were in the neatest looking little wooden box! ; ) |

marius: Ditto the others on the "bottle" story. And I can imagine a lot of possibilities for a sequel or a whole damn series with that one. Excellent! I too loved the ending....hmmmm. |

Doug, Where are the Punishers? If you'll elaborate on it, I promise to maybe never write from the transsexual perspective. Maybe. |

giraffe: Sounds like you're blackmailing me into writing "PUNISHER" style stories for this thread by writing those damndable transexual stories. Your stories ok, but I unfortunately working in the "cosmos" of the world I see every type of person imaginable including "THAT"! I'm not sure when the deadline is, but I'll try to get a "thriller" in here somehow. We are ardently looking for a large kiosk (house) to live in and get out of renting so I am so busy right now. Off to sleep I go.... |

First things first, Doug. Good luck - it's a buyer's market. My daughter got trapped in one of those balloon mortgages, but I'm sure they'll get by. |

Right, Mouse. I didn't mean to leave that out, but I was thinking of "time in a bottle" throughout. If I make TIME-IN-A-BOTTLE the title, I'm up to 306 words or so, so I'll just scratch this one for now. It would be something like: |

Woo, Dragon. Is this your seemy side or your honest side? Giselle's like an aging actress who the time has turned on. The lotions, the creams. I had to laugh. |

giraffe ... funny. Made me recall sitting at a bus stop, age 19, eyeing a strange woman wondering what was strange about her. Then realized ... sporting a man's mustache in a dress and hells, with bright red lipstick IS too odd to process. LOL. |

oops ... man at bus stop was wearing HEELS, not hells ... although that outfit and lipstick with a dark-brown mustache was rather hellish. ; ) |

M, People are strange and I have fun elaborating on that. I guess I like Salvador Dali people more than Norman Rockwell people. ALTHOUGH Norman Rockwell types are more scarce these days than the Dalis. Whew! |

giraffe, you gotta watch out for those Norman Rockwell people, they're the real freaks. Those of us who embrace our weirdness and don't try to conform are way healthier! hehehe |

For my story, I don't know if it was honest or seemy or a little of both. I was sitting there trying to think of how to use Time-in-a-bottle and the Eagles came on the radio with 'You can't hide your lying eyes', which is of course a song about a young woman married to a wealthy older man and carrying on a relationship on the side. They had this line about being able to open doors with just her smile, well that had me off and running. I'm always kind of amazed (and maybe amused) at how often I'll be inspired by a song. |

Giraffe --don't scratch it- -time-in- a-bottle is counted as 1 word. |
