  Continue the story with 3 to 25 more words and feel free to end the sentence with a period if you want. Wait for someone else's addition before contributing again.  It is not necessary to retype the story from the start when you contribute.

  I will start the story now with:

  The sun rose slowly

  The sun rose slowly in the west.  That's when I realized I must be trapped in a John Wayne movie.

  It was a very very slow news day.

  T he sun rose slowly in the west. That's when I realized I must be trapped in a John Wayne movie

  It was a very very slow news day.

  And that's when I also realized that I must be dreaming as the sun actually rises in the east. This must all be part of a very eerie nightmare.

  The sun rose slowly in the west. That's when I realized I must be trapped in a John Wayne movie. Giving rise to the expectation of a day filled with cliches, It was a very, very slow news day. My GPS had been acting up again, and seemed to be about 180 degrees out of whack. Either that, or I must be dreaming this as part of a very eerie nightmare.

  "Help me, help me!" I screamed to the silent sky.

  Note for those too young to remember:  In the final scene of the John Wayne movie about the Vietnam War The Green Berets, the sun sets in the east.

  Most of us took this as an accurate representation of Wayne's political acumen or lack thereof.
