Enemies are so stimulating.

Published by Fence under Pointless

I must be in the mood for quiz things, cause I just couldn’t resist this one:

Your Score: Katharine Hepburn

You scored 16% grit, 47% wit, 38% flair, and 9% class!

You are the fabulously quirky and independent woman of character. You go your own way, follow your own drummer, take your own lead. You stand head and shoulders next to your partner, but you are perfectly willing and able to stand alone. Others might be more classically beautiful or conventionally woman-like, but you possess a more fundamental common sense and off-kilter charm, making interesting men fall at your feet. You can pick them up or leave them there as you see fit. You share the screen with the likes of Spencer Tracy and Cary Grant, thinking men who like strong women.

And of course then I had to do the leading man quiz too:

Your Score: John Wayne

You scored 59% Tough, 4% Roguish, 28% Friendly, and 9% Charming!

You, my friend, are a man’s man, the original true grit, one tough talking, swaggering son of a bitch. You’re not a bad guy, on the contrary, you’re the ultimate good guy, but you’re one tough character, rough and tumble, ready for anything. You call the shots and go your own way, and if some screwy dame is willing to accept your terms, that’s just fine by you. Otherwise, you’ll just hit the open trail and stay true to yourself. You stand up for what you believe and can handle any situation, usually by rushing into the thick of the action. You’re not polished and you’re not overly warm, but you’re a straight shooter and a real stand up guy. Co-stars include Lauren Bacall and Maureen O’Hara, tough broads who can take care of themselves.

Coincidentally I just watched a John Wayne film, The Undefeated. And I’ve come to the conclusion that I just don’t watch enough westerns, TG4 here I come ;)

Once Upon a Time Contest

Published by Fence under Challenges

Carl says “write“. Challenge issued; a story in one hundred words. But– and here’s the problem– no repetition allowed. So let us begin…

Fingers strike keys. Hesitate. Erase. Start again…

More difficult than it first sounded. Quick, fumble for that thesaurus, what’s another way of saying happy? Content? Blissful? Jovial? Exultant? Maybe “on cloud nineâ€?? Nope, not working out. Hit delete. Repeat.

My muse must be on holiday. Rather than feeling any happiness I’m plagued; inspiration simply won’t come.

Damnations, still short! Quick count. Close now, wait. Think. Ponder even.

By Jove, I think… yes, I’ve succeeded (or possibly cheated).


That wasn’t my entry, just a bit of fun, but if you want to enter the slightly clearer rules are:

*Write a 100-word short-short story. Don’t use the same word twice (OK, we make an exception for contractions if you really really really have to, so don’t is don’t and do not is do not, but don’t abuse this as a cheat too much — see if you can work around it).

*The title does not count as part of your 100 words. But just to make it interesting, make sure your title contains unique words as well.

*It has to be a story, with a tiny bit of narrative flow.

*It doesn’t have to be in the realm of the fantastic, it can be about anything.

This is a proper contest, with prizes and celebrity judges and everything. So go, give it a lash.
