Oh Yeah, I Almost Forgot
Yesterday, where I live, we had a record high. I think the last record was set in 1946 or something. It was at 74 degrees (F). We hit 75. Needless to say, it was a little warm. And to think, it was snowing at this time last year. In fact, I got out of the Shelby parade that way last year. It snowed.
It's not a great link. I thought that they would do more with it. But it's pretty good. You can come up with different Star Trek plots. I've got an old Star Wars booklet like that. It's called "The Empire Strikes Back: Mix or Match Storybook." It's pretty fun.
It's divided into six sections. You can just read it like it is, or you can move one or two or more of the sections and change the story.
For example, the first level reads:
- Luke Skywalker
- was riding on a Tauntaun
- on the icy plains of Hoth
- when a probot floated by
- and then disappeared into space
- where the Imperials were preparing to attack
So that's the first page.
The first section is always a person:
- Luke Skywalker
- Artoo-Detoo
- Darth Vader
- Yoda
- See-Threepio
- Chewbacca
- Han Solo
- Boba Fett
And all the rest of the things are all in their own little sections. They all follow a pattern, for each level/page:
- People
- doing something
- somewhere
- when something else comes by
- and does something
- where something or someone was doing something
Fun, huh?
I like it.
Technically, this book probably belongs to one of my brothers. Oh well. Hee, hee, hee.
An example of how you could make one story play out is:
- Luke Skywalker
- was hiding behind a rock
- on the Rebel base
- when a slimy creature showed up
- and directed him through the desert
- where a banquet was being held
Like I said, it's a cool book.
