Volume 3, Issue 2

Hullo, as I'm a fan of random books and random lines, let's do that again.
"The graduates were lined up behind the Science building and she found her place just as the line started to move."
Good luck.

Tanya: Commencement

Harvard Law Commencement, 2017. Ann Marie read the announcement again, proudly.

The graduates were lined up behind the Science building and she found her place just as the line started to move. Soon she was smiling fawningly at the dean, shaking his hand, as she finally received her law degree.

Next, she crossed to the guillotine on the far end of the stage, and waited in the shorter line. Her final thought, before her head was summarily lopped off, was "Wow, when they said 'First thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers,' I never thought they'd be so literal."

Laurence - Send 'em off with a bang!

Podcast of this story"Suzy wasn't cheap, but the Boosters were picking up the tab.

Every year, the same thing. Sort of a graduation ceremony for the football team.

She still had a scar on her lip from last year, thanks to a quarterback with a piercing and a thing for slapping.

They paid her double to keep her mouth shut, so to speak.

This time, it was behind the Science Building. Suzy found it funny that some didn't even know where it was despite getting A's and B's from there.

She heard a zipper.

"Showtime," she sighed, as the line started to move.

Ted: The New Gods Part Five

Sulek was going to be reborn, she thought as she found her place in the chapel. She looked at the shrouded four who were joining the godhood today, but couldn't know which was Sulek in his new form until he was named and the Abbot annointed him.

Throughout the system, billions watched as the Abbot, Tivik Himself in his diamond flesh, stood nude before the four. She was allowed to be present in person only at the request of the new godling, her brother.

Tivik finally called Sulek's name, and she screamed when she saw the form he had chosen.

Michele: Les Nessman Rears His Ugly Head

Someone tapped Kelly on the shoulder.

“Excuse me, miss, but you dropped this.” A familiar looking man was holding her graduation cap.

“Oh. My. God. You’re Les Nessman!”

“Well....Richard Sanders.”

“No, you’re Les Nessman. From that TV show. KRP!”

He was used to this. “Aah, yea. That’s me alright.” He shook the cap at the girl so she would take it and he could be on his way.

“Gosh, you look really good for someone that was on a show from the olden days!”

Kelly held her hand out to take the cap. Richard let the cap fall to the ground instead.

“Damn kids.”

[My first Les Nessman. I bow my head in shame]
