By joining the community where you see this post you declared yourself a thinking microcosm. What I want from you is to share its contents. Send anything that makes you feel creative to the moderators of the magazine, don't forget to mention your nom de plume and wait for the readers to spit on your beloved creation of art. | | | | | | |

Yes, some of my work is on that last link.Most of the sites for those things are not accepting new members, or the sites have just been totally abandoned, so I ask here because I'm bored. | | | | | | |

I've always had an interest in reading the messages other people have left for the world to see and leaving my own. I've written on a few dollar bills-- directing them to the website of my favorite band, or just leaving a message. I'll definitely write some up with this community's address, too. Also, I hope to get some books from the library soon and perhaps leave notes in those. I found a piece of paper in a library book once. It seemed to be notes on the book's contents, but whatever, it was a note. :)Also, I read about letting balloons with messages go on here. Am I the only one who thought immediately of "99 Red Balloons'? :) I love that song.Mood: creative | | | | | | |

Most of it was really nice tacky plastic kitsch, but there was a small ceramic child-king Jesus that I didn't really care for. So I stuck it in my backpack and waited for a good opportunity to creatively dispose of it.Later, I was walking in the woods and came upon a cedar tree with some big niches in the trunk. Someone had chucked an empty bottle of liquor into one of them. I put Jesus in another.I went back there a week later. The liquor bottle had disappeared, but Jesus was still there. That was a month ago, and unfortunately I haven't been back since, so I don't know the fate of Jesus. | | | | | | |

It would appear that a gaggle of teen girls got to it, and decided to have some fun with the thumbprint inkpad that is available for those that use that means of identification. | | | | | | |

And for some insane reason I was planning to go to a theme party as a fairy(!? - is this really my memory??), and anyway, the top half of the girls underwear set was perfect for this strange fairy look I was planning. So i bought the set, complete with a pair of knickers perfect for an anorexic 4 year old.me and my friends decided to go see a movie, so in we went. It must've been a crap or insignificant film because I cant remember what it was, but thats irrelevant. Anyway, a thought had come into my mind - what do I need with a pair of 4 year old's underwear??.. and i thought.. not much. not much at all.so after some giggles, we all decided that it would be amusing if we left the frilly knickers on the movie seats for the teenage cleaners to find and giggle over. so we did.I was reminded of this incident a little while ago. it made me laugh.when i get the chance, from now on, i'm going to leave underwear in strange places. i will try to avoid seedy/pervert type places like people's letterboxes. instead, the underwear placement has to be amusing. like on trees and in furniture stores.sometimes i think i'm insane.-the end | | | | | | |

If this is so, then maybe this isn't such a hot idea.But when I was a little kid our church did one, everyone got a balloon and put their name and address on it. I think there was also a message about Jesus, but it was a church function. Now I might be inclined to put a few lines from HH the Dalai Lama on 'em. Anyway... my Mom actually got a response from her balloon. The woman who found it caught in a tree in her yard send a letter, and that was cool.What I'm thinking is could we set a date to release similar balloons with this journal's addie and see who responds? Maybe each of us could get one balloon and we all let them go on the same day. Let me know what you think!Mood: chipper | | | | | | |
