TTSDBNT...Summer Road Trip: Death, by Saxon Invasion.

[Rolling Thunder]

Damn bus driver must be sleeping it off again. We should have been out of here yesterday.

Gimme a break. I've been editing. Bastidtm

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

So've I! It's a bastidtm, too.

So... where we off to next? I've got to let Gerry know where to meet me.

[wyntermoon]

I'm keeping Daniel with me. We have babies to make protect.

Wave bye-bye to the freaks on the bus, children!

[Haggis]

Gimme a break. I've been editing. Bastidtm

You write? Who knew?

:D

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

Ooooo! Lookee! We've hit a rip in the Space / Time continuum! We're History!

And look who's waiting for me!

[JenNipps]

hehehehehe.....

Since someone who shall remain nameless threw me from the stinkin' bus window during one of those sharp turns a couple weeks ago, I've been making plans to get even. :D

Lots of traps surprises presents for everyone.

P.S. If anyone happens across the Saxons, tell 'em HI for me. ;)

P.P.S. OFG, you can have him, but King Henry (a la Jonathon Rhys Myers on The Tudors) is mine. :D

[san_remo_ave]

Welcome to the historical genre, folks!

Have a seat and get comfy!

:D

[Haggis]

Big mistake, RT. Weren't you supposed to drive us to the Hysterical Forum?

[san_remo_ave]

No problem, Haggis. We have hysteria too.

Done deal! But have you seen this Henry yet?

Exactly! This is my kinda town forum! I honestly don't know why I haven't camped here more... I never write contemporary. I certainly don't write SciFi anymore. Where have I been!?!

[san_remo_ave]

Plague? :Shrug:

But I love it when you plague us, Haggis!

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

"Plague us, Haggis"... it's almost poetry.

Almost.

[wyntermoon]

Is that like "rock me, Amadeaus"?

[Haggis]

Is that like "rock me, Amadeaus"?

Yeah. Only deadlier. :D

[JenNipps]

Deadlier than what?

The Saxons?

Dangit, a couple hours ago, I had a great post -- IMO of course -- typed up and it just up and disappeareded.

Seriously, though, OFG (and anyone else) we'd honestly love to have you stick around more after the bus leaves. :)

[Rolling Thunder]

*enters stage left, carrying ball and chains*

I can arrange that...

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

I do lurk occasionally... and I really do write Historicals. I don't know why I'm not more involved here. I'm a goober.

[JenNipps]

A goober?

You is a peanut?

Hmmm....

:)

[san_remo_ave]

Nuff said, OFG.

You're now an honorary membr of the Historical Forum.

Pop over to the WIP thread (http://www.absolutewrite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=111675)and see what some of the folks are working on right now. I need to post over there, too.

[c.e.lawson]

Well now, see, Ol' Fashioned Girl - you and I might have a problem. You have this guy waiting for you.

Ooooo! Lookee! We've hit a rip in the Space / Time continuum! We're History!

And look who's waiting for me!

http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b134/ALadysRuminations/beowulfinmeadhall.jpg

And I have this other guy waiting for me.

http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/moonette1/Butler300pic.jpg

Do you see why there might be a problem?

I hope that space/time continuum helps out here. :D

You have excellent taste in historical men.

Of course, if you ever go back to contemporary, I've already got dibs on

I'm thinkin' there's enough of that hunk to share. :)

Thank you! I'll do that very thing.

[Bmwhtly]

Histerical writing?

Ooh, history! This calls for a new avatar!

[Unique]

Ooh, history. How far back can we go? North America 1300s?
Don't kick me off the bus. Please.

oh, wait. Do we have to ride mules now?

oh, fuzz. We have to walk? Walk!:!

Can I still do that? ;)

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

Even farther back than that, Unique! As far back as you wanna go.

Be careful, though. If you go back toooooo far, we might all wink out of existence.

[san_remo_ave]

Ooh, history. How far back can we go?

Heh. We can take you back to the original olympics...

[JenNipps]

So far I've gone back to about 650 AD. I'm still here. :)

Oooo. Haggis' birth year.

[cray]

you guys think i don’t know where you are but i do.

and, i think i perked my coffee too vigorously this morning. it tastes like some of the molecules are not yet seated properly.

[Stew21]

I'm thinkin' there's enough of that hunk to share. :)


Indeed.

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

Especially since we all played so nicely together over in the kiddie room. ;)

[Stew21]

that we did.

It's Spartan Law!

[Bmwhtly]

How far through History have we got?

*looks out window*

Oh, we're only at Sparta? Wake me up when it's time to behead Cromwell.
*goes for a nap*

[c.e.lawson]

You can't take a nap in Sparta! Get your *** out of bed and go train with the rest of those military types. It's mandatory, dear. How else do you think they got those six packs in that movie 300?

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

Oooo. Don't behead Cromwell! If it weren't for Cromwell, my ancestor wouldn't have been shipped off to the Colonies with a couple hundred of his Brothers-in-Arms after the Battle of Worcester - and I wouldn't be here!

[Bmwhtly]

You can't take a nap in Sparta! Get your *** out of bed and go train with the rest of those military types. It's mandatory, dear.Aw, nuts.

Oh wait, are we anywhere near 496BC?
We Are?!

Sorry, Sparta will have to do without me, I'm off to watch King Goujian of Yueh in battle. Far more interesting.

[Bmwhtly]

Oooo. Don't behead Cromwell! If it weren't for Cromwell, my ancestor wouldn't have been shipped off to the Colonies with a couple hundred of his Brothers-in-Arms after the Battle of Worcester - and I wouldn't be here!Don't worry OFG. Cromwell had been dead 3 years when they beheaded him.

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

Oh, good! I feel safer now.

[Stew21]

Oh good Christ. We're somewhere else now! You know, I consider history to be so...what's the word I'm looking for??? Oh yeah. PASSE.

It's so bloody gauche.


kevin is soooo over the past.

[Stew21]

It's so yesterday...history called; it wants its irrelevance back.


(I have no idea what that means. it just sounded good at the time.)



Trish, afraid to get kicked out of the history forum.

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

And don't look back, Colonel. Never look back. And don't let go. Never let go.

::Cue sountrack from 'Titanic'...::

[Stew21]

And don't look back, Colonel. Never look back. And don't let go. Never let go.

::Cue sountrack from 'Titanic'...::

I prefer this one:

A little voice inside my head said, dont
Look back. you can never look back.
I thought I knew what love was,
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but-

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

I suppose this is all your doing? You probably feel comfortable here...if not vital.

I confess... I do. This is my space. These are my people. I am... home.

[Cassiopeia]

*curls up in the back of the bus*

I hate job hunting and I hate stupid online companies who advertise for jobs already passed their expiry date. Freaking idiots.

*covers her head with a blanket and snuggles into a quiet nap*

[JenNipps]

Oh good Christ. We're somewhere else now! You know, I consider history to be so...what's the word I'm looking for??? Oh yeah. PASSE.

Oh go bloody gauche yourself. :p

Trish, afraid to get kicked out of the history forum.

Oh no you didn't! lol

[JenNipps]

And, PS...if we're kicked out of history, I suppose we'll be back to the future. That's okay with me.

The future is nothing without the past. ;)

I confess... I do. This is my space. These are my people. I am... home.

We likes people who stay. :D

Didn't you know the Saxons are coming? Death by Saxon invasion? You think it's gonna be quiet?

(Seriously, I know what you mean. Been there, done that, burned the t-shirt - but it regenerated itself.)

People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.

Dan Quayle

[san_remo_ave]

Ah, but those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it....

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

:slap: You're in a rut, Colonel! Move on!

[Stew21]

You are already blessed, my friend.

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

Yer velcome.

[Bmwhtly]

Oh good Christ. We're somewhere else now! You know, I consider history to be so...what's the word I'm looking for??? Oh yeah. PASSE.

History?

It's just one bloody thing after another.

[Unique]

Ya got that right. Wish I could send my son to Sparta bootcamp. He'd so luurrrve to do the dishes and weedwhack if that were his other option.
{Atilla the Mum, anyone?}

I'm tryna wrap my head around it also...but I'll tell ya what... I laughed my frickin' ass off at it. But that's in the past. That's history. Make me laugh NOW.

Kev - your problem is that you can exist in many different time continuum -
ALLL ATT THE SAME TIME! Pick one. (freak)

People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.

Dan Quayle
^^^Oh, the Irony!^^^
Guess that leaves you out, Dan. :ROFL: You're just boring.

You're on drugs... get thee to a meth. clinic...
You're on drugs...get thee to a meth. clinic.

It is. But I can't remember who laid claim to it.

Ugh. Someone save me from this sea of transcription I've been drowning in!

Back to work...

[JenNipps]

The future is everything without the past, my sweetie. One does not live in the past. One does not live in the future. Future is now... be here now. Don't look back and don't look forward. But keep your eyes wide...at least on one side.

Which side? The blind one? ;)
