A Little Nothing is an interesting experiment in "pass-it-around" authoring. Originally introduced by Aramis Dagaz, this bit of fun is mirrored at Aslaug's Axe Shed and The Tiger's Den. Both Aslaug and Tigermark also have forums at Planet Furry with threads for this story, you might want to check them out as well. Enjoy! _________________ =====

Just read the latest installment and gotta say, love the tag line, right up there with 'Let's kill some orcs...' |

As far as I know that came straight out of Tigermark's creative mind. I had nothing to do with it. It is kinda cool ... sounds a bit like something a Bruce Willis character might say.
Thanks for checking out the story, and for commenting!

Kel, I'd say you need to contact your local sales rep at TigerMark Enterprises for that new equipment. Ask 'em if you qualify for the "use a bad line, go to jail" discount ...
Speaking of hockey, we just rolled in after a dismal defeat at the paws of the Dallas Stars. Our guys looked like they were at a practice rink somewhere. My daughter, who left a perfectly good birthday party to make Honda Center by the 1900 face off, was most disappointed. At this hockey game there was no fighting to speak of, physical or mental.
Thanks for reading!

Thanks, I'll fire off an email to TME for that replacement ... LOL!
I've been a big fan of ALN ever since I found it. ALN/ALS are really the reason the Immortal Couple even exist.
Sorry to hear about the game ... I have to root for the Sharks, since they're in my back yard, so to speak.
Maybe the Ducks will face the Sharks this year for the cup.

I did enjoy the duck time but the tag line was better, of course, there was some coyote boom to compensate, hehe... |

<tips hat>
Thanks for the compliments, Frazikar.
<grins> I like things that go *boom*. I'll let it go at that ...
If you haven't already, be sure to explore some of the other stories that are at the various sites involved in ALN or its spin-offs, including that site belonging to that old warhorse that wanders by here now and then. Some good stuff to be found, I assure you.

Heh, the line was funny, but I didn't expect all the hoopla about it. The phrasing is mine, but the idea comes from a very old joke about all the fights that happen in hockey. Everyone has heard of a hockey game where a fight breaks out on the ice. This joke was just a reversal of that. I think I first time I heard it was when I was an eary teenager. (Yep, it's that old)
Anyway, I'm glad everyone liked the line, and the segment. Now it goes to the Filly before the finale.

Hehe, I may even write the finale. As it is, I thought YOU were going to, Tiger. And I have a pretty good ending in mind for all of this. If someone wants to write an epilogue afterwards, then that's alright too |

Well SC, you do have an update date stamped over your offerings that makes it easier (once the pattern recognition software kicks in) - not to mention that the tiger and filly are just a bit behind their own (site) updates...
But after combing the site(s) I do end up swith a bag of extras (mainly shed fur, but what can ya do 'bout that?).... |

Updates do lag a bit at the other sites only because I code for them, Frazikar. I usually create the update and post it at my site without links for review by all of the authors, and pending their approval then send them the updated code. That process can take anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of weeks. Then once they have the code in paw it becomes their schedule to manipulate. And as you might suspect after reading our blogs, real life does tend to interfere not only with writing but also with update schedules.
[grins] Shed fur? Which site did you find that at? [reaches for vacuum cleaner ...]
