Certainly you cant think of a good word that begins with X.

Hoping to use xenophobic rather than xylophone in a sentence, I found no way to do so. If I may be so bold however, isn't Yoda an overreferenced character? Jeez I mean, hasn't Star Wars had it's day? Keep in mind, Stargate was a much better movie. Labelling someone as Yoda-esque wouldn't be as original as making a reference to Teal'c. Malcontents might try to disagree with my stance, but I must stand by it. Not that I discourage some healthy debate - we all need opposing opinions to be sure of our own. Oh well...I guess I've gotten off topic. Personally though I think that if we're going to continue this story, shouldn't we keep the elves in mind? Question my motive if you want, but I can assure you that nothing has motivated me more to continue posting here than my desire to create a fictitious story about our woodland friends. Recent posts have almost completely forgotten WHY this thread was created in the first place! Scorn me if you must, but we must remember why we came here in the first place. Trust me, you'll all feel better if we start over again. Unless of course, someone else has a better topic to write about. Vixens, Vulcans, voluntary voting and vultures come to mind. Why not talk about the noble walrus? Xylography could even be discussed. Young and old alike have often bonded on porches, practicing the age old art of wood engraving. Yes, we have quite a few choices before us indeed. Zany as it may be of me, I think I'll start this once again with a new line:

A long time ago, in a kingdom far far away...
