100-drabbles challange
Random Note: Totally Bunschoten; The one place in the Netherlands with the most people refusing to marry gay/lesbian-couples
To everyone who isn't dutch or didn't follow the news, there's a lot of political debate at the moment, because over hundred people who make a living by marrying couples (I have no idea how they're called in English), say they would refuse and also do refuse to marry gay or lesbian couples. Now in the Netherlands, gay marriages have been allowed for over 6 years, and when this was found out an investigation was started... What came out? of those 100 people 5 are employed in the villiage I live in (Bunschoten) and I can't imagine a small place like this having more than 5 people for it at all, so if you where gay, you can just forget it, basically. This is totally in synch with the fact that some time ago a priest was fired and forced to move away from here because he'd let slip that he was gay and so on. I don't think I've ever seen a gay couple, either man or woman, around here either... All say halleluya to christianity please...
On an unrelated note and my real reason for making this entry; I might have a fun idea, so I thought I'd just trow it at you. Those who are on DA will probably know the concept of the hundred picture-challange. You have people shout out random words untill you have a lot of them, select hundred and draw a picture/sketch to every one of them.
Now I'm not much of an artist when it comes to drawing and I don't think I'd got further than the first picture, if I got there at all, but I can write. My idea is to have you guys and those on DA shout out random words and write a short drabble or a poem (wichever one I feel like) for every one of those hundred words. It should be a good practice and I'm hoping I'll get around to writing some decent poetry again this way... So I'd say, shout out as many words as you can think up! ^^
