A MEETING, PLEASE
[FlashXer] EXERCISE: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 2008
All day yesterday, here in eh Philadelphia area, they were
talking about terrible weather. Tornados, hurricanes, monsoon rains
and so forth. Well it did rain, it rained hard. But nothing blew the
roof off..
So one gets the idea that the pundits are wrong again, and you wonder
when they are calling wolf, or when they are for real. Frankly, one
begins
to wonder, and when the real ting comes along, how then will you know it
or be able to handle it? If somebody knows tell me.
Noting to do with the prompt, which follows. I hope it starts your
creative juices flowing....if not have your gal call call my gal and
maybe we
can get something going that will make your some of your juices
flowing...
HAVE YOUR GAL CALL MY GAL, HE SAID SMUGLY,
PERHAPS WE CAN FIT YOU IN FOR AN APPOINTMENT....
Usual rules. 1000 words. In the subject line, please your name, the
word
Gal and the story title. Give me a call, I'll have 'her' check my
schedule...
if you are lucky, I'll fit you in, if you get lucky.
Have fun

09/07/08 Janine's Gal "A Meeting, Please" 110 words
"Mr. Rant, could we have a meeting?" Mr. Jones said.
"The secretaries run things around here. If my gal says yes, then it's a go." said Mr. Rant.
"I know what you mean. My gal makes all the decisions about who I see." said Mr. Jones.
"Hey, Jones, do you ever wonder why we bother to show up?" said Mr. Rant.
"My gal says I have to show up. Or it would look like she was running things." said Mr. Jones.
Back in the office... "Those guys would be nowhere if it weren't for us. Do you think they will ever figure it out?" said gal 1 to gal 2.
