Okay

Just let me know if you have any preferences as how you wish to have your Muse terminated. Quick and quiet? Or would you prefer her suffering to be protracted and painful?

If you select option Two, please inform me if you wish the suffering to last for days, or simple a few hours. This is important when determining not only what techniques I would need to employ, but what kit I need to bring.

Your Humble servant,

P.S. There's a reason I use the photo of me at the Tower of London. Bet you can't guess why I visit it often.

Or if you want to handle things with a little more savoir faire, get Klondike Kat. He'll make mincemeat out of that muse!

To kill a muse properly, one

To kill a muse properly, one must be sure to do the following.

1) Watch a Roy Rogers marathon. Eight hours is a minimum requirement.
2) Watch Gilligan's Island - three episodes from each of the seasons. Memorize the two different starting themes.
3) Watch four random Twin Peaks episodes. At least two must be from the last six shown before the end.
4) Read 'The Eye Of Argon'. At least thirty pages, but no more than sixty. You want to kill the muse, not your ability to breathe.
5) Read the last sixteen pages of War and Peace, in English, from back to front.

Once you finish with that, you'll need to read the instructions for the 1998 1040 Schedule C (IRS)

That should take care of it. Or at least, your creativity will be so stunned that you'll be able to relax in monotony for at least a year.


I'll get a life when it's proven and substantiated to be better than what I'm currently experiencing.

Killing muses...

As an optional alternative for any of those, you could read straight through any Microsoft Certification textbook. Some of those things actually helped me fight my insomnia for a while.

Helpful Lisa

I can think of many textbooks that would apply...

Especially in the IT and engineering worlds.

And you know what really gets me? For me, programming is a creative endeavor, and yet the textbooks we're supposed to learn from kill our creativity!

Uh-Oh!

You did it now!

John's muse stands up, brushing bits of radioactive debris from her blouse.

"That's the LAST time I let you talk me into a demonstration! Now it's my turn to see how well YOU hold up."

She pulls a CD from her purse. As she slides it into a portable player, the title is briefly visible: "Dani O'Neill sings Roy Roger's Greatest Hits"....

They used to tell me I was writing a dream
With panties and corsets ahead
Why should I be waiting so long inlife
When I could be dressing instead

Once I wrote a story and it went too long
no mind, it would probably trouble yous!
I had a lot of letters left, so
Brother, here's a pair of 'W's!

No need to kill off your

No need to kill off your muse! My dad told me the best way to keep a skunk from smelling was to cut off it's nose.
So, to keep a muse from picking up bad habits, or any habits for that matter, just cut off his hands!

Don't let someone else talk you out of your dreams. How can we have dreams come true, if we have no dreams?
