sub_dividedThere's this brand-new community ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fanthology, which will (in theory) be producing a new set of multi-fandom fanfiction centered around some particular theme every few months. Or, not producing, compiling, since previously written stories are ok. December's theme is "Ghost Stories." Can anyone think of a good over-1000-word story that fits? Yes, this is me asking for recomendations. Take pity! ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pornkings, quit misspelling my name!
I guess it's true what they say about "nothing new under the sun," because I'm reading up on Albanian tribal lore (yes, still), and so far there's been a few cases of zoroastrian beliefs (a God of Darkness and a God of Light), a story about a woman who in vengeance slew her two children and then fled into the sky like Medea, several accounts of ghosts that must vanish when the cock crows at dawn as in Hamlet, and one of an old old man who is positive he'll die when his portrait is torn (Dorian Gray).
According to this NY Times article, Walmart has a more than two Internets' worth of information on its customers. A juggernaut, indeed *frantically tries to remember if she's ever bought anything incriminating from them, or given out her social security number*. The potential for abuse is staggering. No, I'm not just being paranoid (that too).
This is the Fullmetal Alchemist music video that finally answers the question, "Just how many special effects can you cram into a minute and a half, anyway?" Apparently a lot, although this one has more. (You have to be an AMV.org member to download the second one; the first has a direct http link. Also, SPOLIERS for FMA.) All I can say is TOO TOO FAST! AND SHINY! If I had ADD these would be perfect.
keraha, I read the Death Note fic you said was written too late at night. And I liked it, A LOT. Didn't have time to post on it, but you definately should. Post more publically, I mean.
To all you Nano participants: you're all crazy. Yes, all of you. Totally freakin' nuts.
