The ubiquitous 3-word story CONTEST!

[dorkelf]

Here's how we're going to try this. All posts to this thread MUST include three words for the story, but you may also make comments, spam, chatter, whatever you want with the rest of your post after your 3-word entry. The only other rules are that you may only add exactly 3 words to the story, you cannot double post, and you cannot truncate (end with punctuation) a sentence after your third word, or until it has at least TEN words in it.

If you wish, you may also participate in a contest that will go along with the story. Whenever you post, you may add up your earned points and include your total on-going score in your post.

Points can be earned the following two ways:

1 - You earn 10 points whenever the ongoing sentence can be and is completed by your first or second word. In other words, if a period, exclamation point or question mark can be correctly and legally placed after either of your first two words and you choose to do so, completing a sentence with at least 10 words in it, you earn 10 points.

2 - You earn 10 points whenever you use a proper name of someone who hasn't yet been mentioned in the story, but only if no other proper names have yet been used in the ongoing sentence. For instance, if you are starting a sentence and you say, "President Bush waited", and the president hasn't yet been mentioned in the story, you earn 10 points...but if the next person adds, "for Grenth's invitation", that person doesn't earn 10 points even if the name 'Grenth' hasn't yet been used. Also, if you write, "Bush invited Grenth", you earn only 10 points.

Whenever someone has reached 300 points, that person may end the contest and declare himself the winner by ending the current sentence in a grammatically correct fashion, using exactly 3 words. That person may append 'The End' to the contest, but those words will not count towards the 3-word total.

Remember, you don't have to keep score or participate in the contest part to contribute to the 3-word story.

And here we go to start:

That second sentence doesn't make too much sense to me... :-/ wouldn't Voltron be a person? Or some electric dude... why would a dude suddenly become a movie? Can people turn into DVDs?
