I like my coffee like I like my ____________. Free, postage paid and dependant on me to tell others.

Dunkin' Donuts wants to give me free coffee?  Sure, do it.  No strings? Even better...uh? Blog about it?  Oh, why not? I like DD coffee better than just about all the coffee out there.  I kind of like 7-11 Coffee better but if only if it is fresh, in a clean pot, and not overheated.  DD Coffee is consistently good and it comes in an extra large size, which is good for getting my day started.

Here, have an ad.

2010 "Tweet me a Story" Contenst Entries Round 1

, Writing , ,

The first round of the 2010 “Tweet me a Story” writing contest from NYCmidnight was last night. Entrants were assigned a word at 7 p.m. and had 5 hours to come up with up to 3 stories, under 140 characters each, including that word in proper usage.

My group got the word “TRAP.” Here’s what I wrote. The ones in red I submitted. Let me know if I should have submitted different ones in the comments.

  • "If I had opposable thumbs and a grappling hook I'll bet I could trap 4 or 5 of you a day," thought the lion from the comfort of his cage

  • Smell this, Dad said. That's a trap, I said, If I don't you mock me, if I do it'll be vile. Suit yourself, he said sniffing it himself.

  • "You have farren into my tlap!" the Yellow Peril said. "Fallen. Trap," Captain Obvious stated, helpfully.

  • "Nobody wants to place blame here," she said. I looked at her with hatred. She did it. I knew it and so did she. "Shut your trap," I said.

  • Stalk. Snatch. Grab. Drop in trap. Crabbing is the back beat behind the summertime music of steam, Old Bay, butter, and beer.

  • Trap your errors, my programming instructor had said. I remembered the lesson with irony because who guessed that a rogue AI was an error.

  • Mexican standoff. Yankee armed with gun & Afghani with knife at his throat both in Iraq. Together in a cosmopolitan trap of mutual capture.

  • A cage is not a trap, the raccoon mused, only the end result. He also mused that he was still stuck. He never could resist peanut butter.

  • Leon never suspected he would fall in love again.Last time he barely escaped the trap with his life. He was prepared to run this time around

  • Doc Octopus stared into the empty cell filled with robotic minions. Electrodes sparked and webbing hung from the bars. The trap was empty.

  • Ackbar swiveled to view the screen. It was obvious they'd played into the Emperor's hands. "It's a trap!" he cried.
