Thanks to Aquameastro for the new graphic!

This page provides links to the texts of my entries into the Blender funpo on EFnet. Blender has pretty much stopped happening lately; the last one I participated in I believe was number 42. Cthulu (leader of Mistigris) took over for a little while, but as far as I know it's in limbo right now. Anyways, for a little background, Blender is an online art competition. The basic premise is that three words are picked at random (a thing, an action, and a place) and you're supposed to create a piece of art that reflects some usage of those three words. Almost any format is accepted - all kinds of muisc formats, ANSI, ASCII, .gif, .jpg, a program you wrote, or even a full-fledged demo! Since my drawing ability (in ANY format) has been compared to a chimpanzee that hasn't taken its Ritalin, I decided to write stories instead. In fact, I've won a couple of Blenders with just stories! So, here they are in chronological order with the words that spawned them.

Blender 28: Frogs, Drinking, and School. A story of cheap bourbon and betrayal.

Blender 29: Encyclopedia Salesman, Rocking and Rolling, Goth Party. It's funny, in a way. But what did they expect me to do with THOSE words?

Blender 30: Ninjas, Kung-Fu Fighting, Sweat Shop. This story actually won! It's one of my favorites, and isn't nearly as cheesy as it could have been, considering the words.

Blender 31: I can't remember the words for this one. Not a bad story, though.

Blender 32: Picasso, Alien Encounter, Desert. Did I rip off the X-Files in this one? Not really. For instance, I'm not in the FBI.

Blender 33: Pope, Swimming, Pond. A tale of childhood memories. Well, fictional childhood memories, but still.

Blender 34: Hacker, Assembling a Stereo, Supermarket. When I wrote this, I thought of one of my friends in particular. A fun story.

Blender 37: Elvis, Making Sausages, Backyard. I can't believe I actually managed to use all three words.
