I sat at a table on the patio of a French Café located in the heart of Paris, drinking a Perrier; I turned to the sports section of the local French newspaper, and had started to read when a short, feeble looking man approached my table. "Monsieur Conrad?" the stranger asked with a strong French accent. "Yes." I said as I folded the paper and sat it on the table. "I am Agent 6, of the French Intelligence Agency, I was to meet you here on regards of Dr. Conner’s whereabouts." He said. "Fin...

Prologue: A billowing bon fire illuminated the night sky as if the sun was still high in the sky. Around the fire was a group of cloaked malignant men. These men belonged to an occult known as The Serpent Lodge, which dealt in black magic and all things evil. They were intent upon unleashing the lowest gates of hell and to pour forth its awesome wrath, to do their bidding. Their purpose tonight was to finally destroy the roots of their sole opposition; their roadblock to total power i...

In the flash of light, the ground of the forest tremored, and leaves swirled in an uncanny wind. A tall man in white robes appeared. He had a long tail of silvery hair, and his eyes gleamed ice blue as he peered fretfully through the fading light of the strange habitat. He felt a mite disorientated, as he smelt the forest's leafy must, and discerned a narrow pathway stretching before him. Where am I? Aaron Evelander thought to himself. "Hmm." There was only one way to find...

--a bit of another story i started, but haven't finished, put it at the end of the 'to do' list.....if you have any ideas for a title, let me know , it is supposed to be about a president who is at the end of his 2nd term and decides he doesn't want to leave the white house, so he takes it over, along with some loyal followers...don't know why the alignment is off... A morning frost settled on the White House lawn just as President Faulkner rose from a full, undisturbed six hours rest....

(This is chapter 1 of a story i wrote (some fiction/based on truth) about trip to australia to spend the summer with my aunt and uncle... I sat in a seat near one of the windows of a Boeing-737 destined for Sydney Australia. I stared out at the scenery that unfolded; a red rolling desert with various trees and bushes scattered about, this was the vast and deserted outback of Australia, where in less than five hours I would be residing for the summer with my aunt Phyllis and uncle Ed; h...

By: Bill O'Reilly for BillOReilly.com Thursday, Jun 23, 2005 No country can win a conflict the way the USA is fighting the war on terror. Every move the Bush administration makes is scrutinized, criticized and roundly chastised by dissenters who firmly believe the President, himself, is responsible for much of the anti-American hatred around the world. The chorus is deafening. Bush "lied" about Iraq. Bush is violating civil liberties by supporting the Patriot Act. The President sanctio...

From rightwingnews.com 10) "A war of real information and real issues alone is doomed to fail. The Texas Fascist Party carries elections by drawing the hordes of stupid white men who are itching to 'get even' for decades of imagined slights. Arguing issues with these people is pointless. These people are not interested in issues, social justice, or even the fact that the US government will go bankrupt in a decade. All they want is to get back at welfare mothers, blacks, Arabs, immigra...

I receive emails from both the Democrat and Republican Parties, as i agree with certain things on either side... and i recently received this email: Dear Lucas, Just hours after learning about an outrageous speech delivered by Karl Rove, President Bush's most senior advisor, I went to the Senate floor -- and I spoke from my heart. I want to share those words with you -- not as a Democrat or Republican, not as a liberal or conservative -- but as an American. I've attached part of...

Well, I've finished reading the bible and making notes...but some things interest me, why are there missing parts, where it talks about jesus, then just stops...(like when it goes from him being about 12, to about 21ish... where did all that time go) There are other parts missing, i have heard that early in the 11th century (give or take) the catholic church acquiered manuscripts that contained the writings of the bible, which they then used to alter (e.g. taking out parts, adding others in) ...

A gust of wind swept through the valley and into the trench, bringing with it the odor of death and decay. It caused me to pitch over. My hand flew to cover my nose. I tried desperately not to vomit. A man nearby chuckled, “What’s the matter Sam, the smell getting to ya?” He said with a southern drawl and proceeded to grin, this was my friend Frank. “Yeah…we’ve been here what, six months and haven’t so much as a few yards here and there.” I said. Frank and I were bunkmates in boot camp, ...
