""The Longest Story Ever" (working title), is to be a podcast where the listeners have a say in where it goes. The way it will work is this: I start out "the story" with Once upon a time...
Then, users will each submit a "chapter" for the story. The users will then (after the deadline for submiting a chapter) vote in a poll thread to decide which chapter is the best. That chapter will then be read (interpreted, using voices and such, eventually voice actors or something) to make that chapter. It will then go on forever.

A Few Groundrules: No sexually explicit chapters No anti-religious chapters (no discrimination) No politically slanted chapters No chapters that could offend anyone
Humor is greatly encouraged. If the chosen chapter's author would like to record their chapter, and interpret it themselves/with a friend for voices, that is fine, and can be worked out.
That said, the first chapter needs to be around 10-15 minutes in length when read verbally. It must introduce characters, and set the story going somewhere. There is no end to this story, so if a chapter ends one quest/purpose/plot of the story, another must be created.
Let it begin!
BTW: I need a logo for this as well. Perhaps, eventually the story could be done using Skype.

I have had my little Averatec 3200 for a year or two now, and have battled to keep it in good shape. That doesn't count the times that I have dropped it, scratched the screen, or had to resolder the power port's contacts. Those weren't big deals. This is. I got angry at the little guy, and squeezed the sides of the screen as I closed it. The next thing I know after I reboot, the screen is white in a large space on the right side, and has some black through it. I cracked the LCD.

I guess I deserved that for some of the stuff I had done, or something. The part of this that troubles me most is that, while I can get a new screen and fix it, the new screen itself is worth almost the value of the laptop. In its current condition, I would rate this laptop (XP 2200+,512,60gb) at $350-$400 max. The LCD new is anywhere from $150-$300. That is insane. I plan on trying to grab one cheaper on eBay. The fact that a component could cost more than the machine is stupid, though. Oh well, I guess I will either have to fix it, or sell it as is. Either way, I plan to eventually sell it, and get a more powerful lappy. Until then, ARRGH!

I, as many people have, tried Crest’s Whitestrips. They do work, but it takes forever to see any results, and the end result usually ends up being less than desired. On top of that, Whitestrips do not work with all facets of the teeth, and don’t whiten the molars either, since their size does not stretch that far. And, the main problem is that they are so EXPENSIVE!

I have found the alternative. It is called “Pluswhite 5-minute Speed Whitening Gel.” It has the same ingredients as Whitestrips, only it doesn’t use strips at all. Best of all, this solution costs only $6 to $15, depending on which version you choose. I opted for the cheap, tube-only version. The more expensive version’s only difference is that it has a brush to paint the goop on, and two foam trays to squirt it into, and then you place those trays on your teeth. The poor man’s version requires a q-tip to apply.

  You can find this stuff at Wal-Mart, and probably most other stores that sell this type of stuff too.
