Usually I’ll include random words that I must use but no rules. I’ve done Haiku, limericks, rhymes, prose and really wacky things. Whatever comes out.

I love watching the old men who are watching the replays of a previous race. They stand there, still clutching their loosing tickets and cheer on their favorite even though the race is over and their horse lost. It is kind of sad.

I'd say, "The pink jersey." Never won a penny.<BR/><BR/>Like Dot, I think you're a great writer.
