Burdette, in a resplendent red coat, took a step forward into the arena. The crowd watched in anticipation as the gates smashed open. The bull rushed at her at a dizzying speed. Her sympathetic nervous system was signalling desperately, but she ignored it. This was HER moment!

Alas, it wasn't. She broke her left femur.

Could someone write a 55-word nanofiction that would give the back story?

(don't know why this didn't rotate properly. Am I doing something wrong?)

:::link::: Any lamp with the tall chimney is referred to as a hurricane lamp. She has quite a nice collection. I think I like the blue one best. oooh, just realized one is on my phone but didn't make it to estrip.

Why are they called hurricane lamps? Aren't all hurricane lamps supposed to light up without electricity?
paul - 10/16/10 13:38
Those are some pretty lamps.

At tango's pet store
Category: pets
This african grey parrot is 3 months old, affectionate, and for sale at tango's, corner of massachusetts and normal. he's been raised by hand. Michelle is a bird-raising expert. The other parrot is harley, a blue fronted amazon parrot. He's hanging upside down in his cage. I wish I got a shot of the love birds cuddling.

Don't they feel sad if they are left alone in the house in a cage for a long time?

Well there are also Straight Bars also...... I'm guessing the person there Likes him or wants to vote for him, or maybe he thinks that the bad parts of paladino are worth it if he can really shake up Albany. Not saying he can but if Carl could go in their with a baseball bat and fix the place and get everything to work right (not that one person really can) but if he could, how much evil would each person be willing to allow for that to happen. Would you kill someone old who was close to death yeah sure but a young child guessing not but maybe that sacrifice would be worth it.....

Now onto the gay thing. I'm so confused. I read today that Carl rented space to two gay bars! Not only that but he got along with the people running them. Now the claim is that some Rabi wrote all that stuff for Carl, and now that he said I'm sorry the rabi left Paladino as a supporter..... This thing is nuts who knows where he really stands. This is my take... He has no problems with people who are gay themselves and will work with them. However he doesn't agree with marriage but thinks that gays should have the same rights as everyone else. I also think that he might really believe that a Pride Parade is no place for Kids. Never seen the one in NYC so I wouldn't know but he might (Oh the RABI )have a point. Again though no one really knows but him and that is a problem.....

This leads me to the point that we need a new system where you can have 3 major Parties the person who gets the most votes wins, and you don't need 51% of the votes to be the winner this needs to be at every level of government!!!!

OK. I can deal with not going there anymore. Fuck you very much Paladino.
paul - 10/13/10 21:41
That seems like a stupid location to advertise that right i the middle of the gaybarhood.
uncutsaniflush - 10/13/10 19:55
From what I hear at work(we do their inventories), Paladino owns that convenience store.
