The Man Who Ran Over Himself

If you're new around these parts, I just want to say how much I appreciate your dropping by! Oh, and you may want to subscribe to my feed. Thanks, and a tip o' the hat to ya!

Yeah, I know what you’re probably thinking. “Who do you think I am, anyway? I didn’t just fall off the melon truck, you know. Just how can ANY bozo run over himself?”

While I leave you to ponder that one, I thought we might stop and consider something else for a minute. To do that, you’ll first have to answer this question: what do all these photos have in common?

Uh, you in the back with your hand up – hey, very good, that’s right! Planes, trains, automobiles (not to mention the absolutely hilarious movie by the same name) – it all spells Travel (sound of fanfare followed by audience applause).

With that I’d like to introduce you to the topic for this month’s group writing project:

What I Learned From… Travel

All-righty, folks! Grab your favorite writing device and put on yer thinkin’ caps, ‘cause the fun begins on Monday, July 2!

p.s. If you’re new to MZM and wonder what the heck I’m talking about, check out the great entries from the last two projects.

Oh, and by the way, that guy I mentioned? You know, the man who ran over himself? Yeah well, here’s the thing. He needed something from the store, but was very busy, see. So he tried to get someone else to go to the store instead. Alas, nobody could.

So, he ran over himself. (rimshot)

See ya! (quickly ducking to avoid virtual tomatoes)

You know, it would just be absolutely finer than a frogs hair if you would subscribe to my RSS feed!

“So, he ran over himself.” - that odd noise you hear all day today? Yeah, it’s people all over the world simply going *GROAN!*

Travel eh? Interesting topic. I’ll see if I can come up with an entry for that one.

Uh, Karin… where are you again?

Sorry, Tully, couldn’t resist.

Markk: ever run over yourself?

I may have to sit this one out in protest.

Except that my travels tend to go anything but smoothly, and it doesn’t seem right for my relatives to get all the laughs at my expense!

Sorry, Mike, sitting it out is NOT an option!
