100 word story challenge

Every week at www.podcasting.isfullofcrap.com Lawrence Simon posts a prompt. You have until the following Friday at midnight to get your story of exactly 100 words sent in. Most people record their story and send it in as well. He puts all the stories together and posts them as a weekly podcast. We all listen to each others stories, and then vote for those that we like. Whoever gets the most votes gets to choose the topic for the next week.

It is a fun technical challenge to get the mind working.

Here is a sample. The one time that I won, the prompt was double dipped:

He had heard of double dipped chocolates, Sienfields' double dipper faux pas, and even a double dipper recession. He had never imagined double dipped hosiery.

Dilbert Doublet, a particle engineer, hadn't worn a matched pair of socks in forty years.

Dilbert took long, hollow, nano fibers and immersed them, twice, in a polarized ionic solution. When woven into the fabric of cloth the fibers could be given ionic signatures.

Dilbert Doublets Double Dipped nano socks, activated by heat from the dryer, will magnetically find their mates to come out as a matched pair.

Coming soon to a store near you.

I chose the next weeks prompt to be 'chicken nuggets'.

If you don't want to record your story, or can't, he will record it. I would also be happy to record for you if you would like to give it a try.

Thanks for the info, Philip. I think I'll try it and maybe take you up on your offer.
