Okay, there it is. I hope everyone doesn't think it is completely insane. Okay, it *is* completely insane. Let us know what you thought! And please be honest. How many of the challenge items did you find?? - Alicia and Rivka

HAR! I think it was WAFFy, silly, and insane all at the same time. I loved it!! I'd start quoting stuff, but I bet I'd end up quoting half the story.

This has got to be one of the strangest stories I've ever read on these message boards, but it was quite amusing. :p I like how you got the character name of Lt. Bronwyn Gail Robinson into the story, which was Teri Hatcher's role as transporter chief on "The Outrageous Okona" in the Star Trek: TNG episode. And the ficus made a reappearance in a story! [Note:] I have no idea what the challenge(s) was, so I didn't know what to look for, but it was definitely a different type of Valentines Day story.

Wow... that was about the most halarious story I've read in the longest time! I was dying laughing throughout the whole thing! Great job!

Clark: You are really high maintenance, you know it? Lois: But I'm worth it.
Clark: Not exactly what you had in mind, huh? Lois: Let's see. So far I've been given a glimpse of ritual crop worship, been treated as your girlfriend, and insulted your parents. No, I couldn't have planned this.

All I can say is: That seems to cover it. <g> EDITED: to add that I actually do have an Aunt Gail... I may never look at her the same way again. Caroline

Lol, I have *two* Aunt Gails! I too am never going to be able to look at them in the same way. Very funny and enjoyable.

Alicia & Rivka Well, I'm amazed. I wouldn't have thought it possible to include all those things in one story. The beginning is so WAFFy. Sounds like it's going to be a perfect Valentine's night. The story is hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing. Tricia (And hey Rivka, it's Lois's! Sorry I just couldn't resist.)

OH MY GOD!!!!!!! PLEASE, GIVE ME A BREAK, SO I CAN STOP LAUGHING AND WRITE MY COMMENTS!!! (next day) Ok, I think I'm fine now. (Although even thinking about this ROTFLOLly story I read yesterday makes me laugh). Well, your story is paranoically hilarious!! I like it very much. I hope this crazy duet writes more in the (near) future, giving a bright shine of laugh in our boring lifes And since you asked, I found the following challenge items: from LabRat's challenge: 1. A grizzly bear. 2. One red and one yellow balloon. 4. Clark is visited by his overbearing aunt. 5. A new type of K causes problems for Superman. 6. A ficus. <g> from Skitz's challenge: - the phrase "looks like a smurf on crack" - a game of "strip uno" - Clark in drag (sort of) - the song "men in tights" - a star trek cameo - an obscene use for a kiwi - vampires AnnaBtG. (who is the biggest fan of anything funny, especially funny L&C fics) P.S.: Thank God I don't have an aunt Gail.
What we've got here is failure to communicate...

A perfect illustration of how off the wall can you go and still make a really fun story. This was my first look at challenge fic! Thanks for the great introduction. claire

Wow! Thanks for all the great comments! It's rewarding to have our insanity appreciated! Thanks Jose, Blayne, Caroline, Mere, Marns, Tricia, Saskia, Merry, Claire! Anna, congrats! You found them all! Regards, Captain J.M.D., planet Snork. Glad you all liked it. We thought we would be the only ones who laughed! Alicia & Rivka
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

LOL That was the most ridiculous story I've ever read. I was going with the flow of the WAFFy beginning. (I could have been oggling CK's chest just as much as Lois from the descriptions... LOL) Then when I was reading the feedback from the challenge everything fell into place. What a fun story. You guys have quite the imagination. LOL Bella
Lois : And you know, you put up with me for the same reason I put up with you. It's because I'm completely in love with you." Clark : "And I love you. Did we just make up?" Lois : "I think so."
