I have paused a few days to see what would happen, next.  And it would seem
this little experiment has shown a few interesting facts.  Well maybe that
not that interesting but at the very least it did demonstrate how some here
on ASA do things.

1) only some can follow the rules
2) very few can envision the humor of writing a good story one line at a
time
3) some do not want to collaborate and decided to write a paragraph with an
ending

Now I fully expect to be flamed here and that is ok.  At least it is the
tradition of ASA.  So be it.  I guess it best to leave a sleeping (or dead)
dog lie.  I digress.
