ZYX – Backing Talkwards

Mar 31 2009

random-lettersMy buddies at SWT just finished up a month of posts starting with the letters of the alphabet, in sequential order. I thought it was a pretty neat idea and thought I might try it myself. It must have been quite a challenge, because as the month wore on, they found it ever more difficult to find subjects for their posts. The toughest letters are the ones at the end of the alphabet. I made the mistake of offering a “hey, you shoulda done this” comment and Phillip delegated the final letter to me. Here’s what I came up with… a silly zed-infested string of nonsensical sentences depicting a late night snack of someone stirred from their slumber.

The alphabet theme was such a good idea, I think I’ll try it. I won’t steal their idea directly though… I’ll start with Z and work my way backwards down to A. Stay tuned during the month of April (shit, if I started with A then April Fool’s Day could have been my first post!)

    We gave ourselves a month before we started writing those alphabetic posts. It’s a tough exercise. I look forward to the silliness you come up with!

    Thanks again for the Z post. I think it’s under-appreciated.

    Great. Now you tell me! Now the pressure is on.

    …and thanks for the thanks. I was a tad disappointed with the lack of response… I figure I offended all the zombies who read your blog… I really don’t hate zombie movies. Really. icon_wink

    By the way, your entry in the alphabet series was the best of them all.

    Thanks Phil! I wasn’t feeling the love on that one. Now that I have your endorsement, I’m feeling better!

    Maybe the SWT alphabet was deleted. I can’t find them at all.
