Saw this idea in another forum and laughed my butt off at the thread entries.

It's sorta like our Word Association as everybody can "add their 2 cents".

It starts when one of our brave posters begins a story (example: "It was a cold, rainy night in downtown Hagersbush when suddenly...")

The next poster adds a word/sentence/paragraph/whatever, and the next poster adds their 2 cents, and so on and so on.

Get it?

Sounds like scads of fun.

Wanna play?

OK - Who's the brave poster that's gonna start this little soap opera?

It was a dark and stormy morning, the ModSquad had not slept well. It decided to login to HM to see what it could possibly mod today......

"Aha!", the modsquad squealed, "I see n00bies, I think I'll..."

...let them alone and mess with Patton some more.

Then suddenly out of the clear blue sky came.......

the Dynamic Duo, Run around Rowdy and Freaked out Flipper......

and their gal pal, Under the Influence Unbelieveable. Together they all decended upon the poor unsuspecting Modsquad......

...whom some people suspected had no sense of humor, but...

Cool and calculating, Modsquad awaits in the shadows. Like the seasoned chess player that he is, he knows when to move and when to wait. But his patience has it's limits. Un, Flipper and Rowdy have all returned in his nightmares....but, it's Patton that concerns him in his waking hours...

Patton. Patton, that cool and calculating sly and cunning General, with his Armies behind him, constantly moving forward, singing "Onward Christian Soldiers"....

The spectators marvel at Patton's singing abilities. And, yet, they wonder.....Is he marching off to war, or is this just a parade? Will we ever know for sure?.....

As we saw yesterday on As The Forum Turns.....

Patton's armies were gathering at a secret base somewhere in the Tri-State area.....

Meanwhile, back at the Forum...............


It's another peaceful morning at the Forums. Where the happy morning people start to greet each and every member with a " Good Morning!" Little do they know.......

The danger which lurks amongst them.....

that right around the next corner the darkness of doom is waiting. As the sleepy people start signing into the forums....

...a mysterious loner sitting in a dilapidated pickup truck outside of a Waynesboro convenience store stares fixedly at the laptop open on his dashboard, tapping his fingers impatiently, awaiting approval from the Powers That Be. He knows that THIS TIME, under his newly-created username, he will be able to wander the forums undetected and will hopefully befriend unsuspecting n00bs, who will have no idea who he really is. Poor ignorant new arrivals to the forum, happy to make new friends, totally unaware that he's really...

The dark descending evil one whom takes the Identity of others and moves in for the kill. Meanwhile the Mod is nervously waiting and watching his every move, monitoring, skillfully planning the massive attack to cut him off yet once again.

The ModSquad, who has been spending the morning trying to contemplate the Generals' next move, rises to his/her feet and exclaims.......

I DO HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR DAMMIT!!!!! and if you don't follow my rules you will be banished and have to live the rest of your life in........

The dark, secluded and empty chatroom that I created that no one ever uses. You will be forced to stay there and wait and linger for someone to come along, and then and only then can you....

Realize just how one lonely Mod spends his/her day's waiting and wondering what the forums post has in store for them today. Who, What, and How am I going to get myself out of this mess I got into? Oh woo is me, the dreary one who took on the empty chat room the former Mod created. Meanwhile He/She wonders the Generals next plot. Stay tuned for the next adventure the poor Mod has in store.

Meanwhile, back at the beer-ranch, Chip Stewart has just bathed his 400-pound puppy and is preparing to...

FLASH!! We interupt this program for a news break. City officials have decided to put a fence around the old city light plant. There have been to many homeless / vagrant people living and setting fires there the last couple of years. So swift and decisive action must be taken. The fence will be electrafied with razor wire placed atop. Mayor Bob will patrol the area to assure no one gets in.

We now return you to your regular scheduled program.

When last we left off, Chip Stewart was bathing his 400-pound puppy and was thinking about doing some research online, in hopes of finding a new location for Bones & Cones. The TV in the next room is audible from the Dog Bathing Room at Stewart Manor, and he hears NBC 25's Diana Moon talking about the new fence around the City Electric Plant. Chip strokes his little beard thoughtfully. "Hmmm," he speculates softly to a lathered-up Ludwig. "Maybe we could move Bones & Cones into the old electric plant! We could have creekside seating..." Ludwig, as usual, keeps his own counsel...

but little did Chip know that the dynamic duo and their gal pal had already set up camp in the abandoned plant, and had already began planning a large scale...

Attack on unsuspected nOObs. They're preparing to keep themselves locked in and only the dark sided ones will have entry to their new found play land. AAAAHHH But lurking in the back comes Lugwig, The Super Dog! He's planning his private launch of new hair care product's simply named "Puppy cover wash and gloss" Only for the elite Puppies in our commuinity.

Fortunately for the n00bs, they had shelter from the Trifecta of Terror......

...due to the fact that the General and his less-than-sympathic side-kick, Yoss, were stationed outside of the 2-foot fence that protected the old Power Plant, awaiting the arrival of Dragon with her loyal troll-eating dogs.

When suddenly, while Yoss and Patton was standing guard at the 2 foot fence a long black stretch limo should appear and out steps a Montague of city council members. The media is going on attack wanting to know how they're going to evict the duo that have taken over. In the press room of the HM sits the eagerly awaiting Mod watching over the forums making sure no bad will is being posted. Ludwig is packing his hair care products and fleeing the seen of the attack. Finally Dragon and her dog's show up, they stand guard on the side awaiting for the evil ones to show their face.........When the Mayor yells out with his bull horn saying " Show yourselves, come forth now! "

The suspence was to much for Penny. She couldn`t wait any longer. Just when she tried to open the door.

The Fearless DodgeMan drives up in his Dodge, jumps out and yells, Penny what the hell are you thinking???? Can't you see that......,

fence is electrified? Mr. Mayor inches closer to.....

but Penny seems not to notice. Mr. Mayor picks up his bull horn and yells, "Penny, let go of the door!'' For once, Penny is speechless....

Ludwig begins to sense the distress and .....

straps on his keg of burbon and....

and heads to the new Green Turtle in the North end of town because the barrel is empty. On his way there he.....

Captured by Animal Control because Chip forgot to get his liscense renewed.........

But not to worry for poor Ludwig, Chips wife comes to the rescue with the renewed license and fresh Brandy, Ludwig is safe once again... Meanwhile at the Light plant Penny ceases to touch the fence, She's scared by Dodgeman pulling up and watching Dragon's dog's, However frozen and speechless she looks to Mayor Bob for the signal to draw out the duo. When out of no where.......

Ludwig, who secretly has super powers, stands up and began to negotiate with animal control. Wook dude, he says. Wan't we twy to work this wout? The animal control driver is so blown away by the talking dog that he....

While Chip is trying to figuring out how to get Ludwig out of the S P C A. 911 gets a call to go to.

It's the smoke from the light plant, The duo is determined to stay inside with the flames. Mayor Bob, Penny, Kelly, Kid, Lew, they're all pleading now to get them out, when the power is suddenly cut to the fence Dodgeman took his Dodge and chained up to the doors that were locked from the inside and he yanked them open for the fearless HCP to remove them. Poor mod is going crazy listening to the monitors.......

Alecia Parsons asked if this plant ever had any african american employees, when she finds out that they did not she orders the Hagerstown City Police to give her a ride to the MVA to get her moped licence....

The Mayor wells at Alecia, OH no your not. We don`t need that again. Get over here and help hold the fire hose.
Just then all the county commissioners drive up and.

....say, "Hey, we were on our way to Pacific Ocean Buffet. We're on a 'fact finding mission' to determine for certain which Washington County buffet is the finest, and we saw all the cars here. What's up? Do you need help with that fire hose, Mayor?" Mayor Bob casts them a withering glance and says...

..."Pie Crust"...at which time Yoss rounds the corner, a gleam in his eye and a Ruger in his hand.

"you don't ever want to help the City out with our due tax money, so we don't want your help now!" Just then the council gathers together to fiqure out what they are going to do about the raging fire. When all of a sudden Cheif Hawbaker shows up on a fire engine with just the driver because the council never funded the needed firefighters. Lew screams at the top of his voice we can not huddle together because that would be seen as a closed session. NBC 25 pulls up and the County Commissioners run like hell while screaming, "we cannot be on camera!!!!" Hagopinion stands there watching this mess and thinking to himself, "Willard Street will never be safe from golf balls?!?!?!"

And Hagerstown will never be safe from Goof Balls !!!

Meanwhile, downtown in the Arts and Entertainment district, something exciting is happening...

The last parking space is occupied by the n'er do wells who do not actually 'reside' down there, but want to go to bar-hopping. Thus forcing Poor Mayor to lament, How can I sell any cars without a new parking deck??

Meanwhile back at the Board of Ed, they are busy installing flourescent light bulbs in the new "toystore" to be green at a low cost of $11 per Allegheny Energy per bulb...

"WE INTERRUPT YOUR REGULAR SCHEDULED PROGRAM TO BRING YOU BREAKING NEWS

Mayor Bob gets to air his view's on the traffic situation to NBC 25 news reporter today to Gov. O'Malley while him and his staff have made their way through downtown Hagerstown.

WE NOW RETURN YOU TO YOUR REGULAR BROADCAST.

"For the Love of mother Earth, there must be a way to unite us all! Where is the naked love?!"

Meh, with a mild, "off with their heads," B delivers a cold and concise command to Soldier Biscuit who revels in the beheading of Udmas with swift, round circles of an axe - once to stun, teh next to SEVER!!1!~!1111


I'm on to you Idiot. Just say the word, B.

The next morning, back at the local urgent care facility the HM Forum medical team was frantically trying to diagnose It and save him from the strange illness he has been infected with. More than likely from the dirty bacteria bomb planted in the local businesses in the area as a deterrent to bring down many businesses in the downtown area. It is believed that the members of the Charter Board are responsible so their heavily seeded plans to take over the city will succeed... Who will bring down these evil nemeses???
