The Age of In No Sense
I can't believe in all this time there has never been a RG Age of Innocence, it must have gotten lost. So, just to cover myself, this age is in no relation to any prior Age of Innocence, fictional or otherwise. And, so far as I can tell it has nothing to do with
Daniel Day-Lewis either. This is the Age of In No Sense where the winning
choices make no sense and are presented in no logical order.
In other words, it's just your average winners file.
First off, 20 tokens to LndonSleep and Mr Onliner. I think it'd only make sense to say something about Lndon's posts and making sense. Instead, let me say Mr Onliner also posted a bat signal in his Cavalcade this week, but it was too wide for the
margin and too much formatting for the winners file.

i had a camcorder once. until that fatefull night in 1783 when my good friend poe threw it in the river during one of his opium-triggered fits. he used to get real weird when he was high, he'd think it was over two hundred years earlier and that i had thrown some object that couldn't possibly have existed then into the river. what a junkie.

Subject: Re: Mr Onliner's Cavalcade of Whimsy
From: Mr Onliner
I wonder when the last time a movie studio made a romantic comedy without "a hilarious twist" was. Probably Goodfellas.
It will probably take me more words to say that Astronia won 25 tokens than it took her to compose these entries. . .yep, it did.

Is it really possible ta draw a blank? I'm just wondering....

Yes, Irony can be sickening. Especially when taken orally.
I can say, "Hopefully Chacro meant the first two posts to go together. Ah, no matter -- 15 tokens," and I've still used more words than the winning posts.

Now Nyello's on the other hand... I had a different song stuck in my head when I read this, so I'll just take everyone else's word for it. 15 tokens.

It's 2 a.m. on a Thursday
The Randomers shuffle in
There's a nude man sitting next to me
Making love to a gal named Raven
He says "Hey what time is it?
I'm sure that you know how it goes
It's revealing and cool
And if you're no fool
You'll want to take off your clothes."
Write us a post, you're the Nyello man
Write us a post tonight
Well we're in the mood for some comedy
And Puddy's got us cravin' a fight
Now Bob in his thread is a friend of mine
I slip and fall and he laughs at me
He's quick with a 'dis or to go take a piss
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Nyell, stop the insanity!"
As he began to become quite irate
"I like it here but I miss the Firing Range
And I love to spend time in DGate!"
Write us a post, you're the Nyello man
Write us a post tonight
Well we're in the mood for some comedy
And Puddy's got us cravin' a fight
Now Zorn is a swinging chap
But you can tell he's wrought with strife
And he's talking with Chris whose jokes never miss
And like me he has no life
And Myrrh is updating the margin
As the newbies are beaten and shunned
Yes they're posting about things that are whacked
But it's better than making up puns
Write us a post, you're the Nyello man
Write us a post tonight
Well we're in the mood for some comedy
And Puddy's got us cravin' a fight
It's a pretty good file for a Thursday
And Myrrh gives me a grin
'Cause she knows that I'll love her always
Even if this week I don't win
And the post reads like novel
And keyboard is all worn down
And Al talks of ducks and the rest say this sucks
But I simply can't frown
Write us a post, you're the Nyello man
Write us a post tonight
Well we're in the mood for some comedy
And Puddy's got us cravin' a fight
Now, I'd like to point out that technically, since another of his posts is here, Kat's Darwin post may not have actually won, and is just listed here out of habit. Here's the rest of the 15-token winners.
Subject: Re: CHRONIC FUR BALL

kat's observation, and question:

$50 worth of fire works goes in about 1 hour. a cheep hooker goes for about $50 an hour.

Subject: Bubble Baths
From: Krazyk242
No matter how hard I try, I can never get a bubble bath just like the ones in the movies. My goal is to get a bubble bath set just the way Julia Roberts had in "Pretty Woman." Right now, I can get lots of bubbles piling up by the faucet, while I'm barely covered in soapy water. I wish I could get a PG-13 bath for once instead of an NC-17.

Subject: Reliving the Civil War
From: Krazyk242
I have a confession to make. It's about my father. And no, he's not a child rapist, that...um...that hasn't been proven yet. But he is a Civil War re-enactor. That means he's stuck in the dillusion that the Civil War is still going on. Every month he gets dressed up in his soldier's uniform, grabs his rifle and tenting gear and goes out to Gettysburg to relive the moments of our forefathers over a hundred years ago. He even hung up a huge portrait of Abraham Lincoln in our living room. For years I thought Lincoln was some kind of distant uncle. Things really started getting creepy when he told me that my great-great-great uncle was with this guy who shot John Wilkes Booth. But the worse part of it was, when I was little, he would dress me up like a little Civil War era girl. I'd have on the hoop skirt, the crinolines, the really uncomfortable shoes- the whole nine yards. Then I'd have to parade down a runway for a little "fashion show" while old men would joke "Whoo hoo! Show me some ankle, suger! You're as pretty as General Cornwallis' youngest gal!" Which brings me back to my point. My dad's weird.

I was thinking... If you walk in the woods during may... and it's merry out... how would you know that the trees were happy without cutting them down and building a mall?
Finally, here's the rest of the 10-token winners. You know, even with all the talk, I think there is still a lack of violence in the Random Game. I'm glad to see Zornog is getting us back on track.

I wish I were a news anchorman, so then when all the sad stories would come up I'd say, "Wow, life's a bitch, eh?" And then I'd punch my co-anchor.

No, but the little plastic peg people from Life tried to invade Boggle once. They got so confused that many of them ended up settling in Cribbage. And the beat goes on...

I just got back from visiting my dead grandmother. She doesn't have a lot of furniture, but the lawn is really nice.
Oh, just in case after last week anyone was wondering how I'm doing, which nobody was, it turns out the headaches weren't keeping me awake; not sleeping was giving me headaches. Now, however, not sleeping is just giving me an excuse to...um, uh lose my train of thought. Uh yeah; that's all, congrats to the winners.
