Dilemma of the era

Everybody talks about the blogosphere, but nobody says anything about its diameter or circumference. Can the answer ever be found?

Writing

I just realized something about writing. You can write about your local area and people will believe it's anywhere if you do it write. For example, if you write about Southmoreland Park in Kansas City and call it "Central Park," telling people that you are actually writing about New York's Central Park, people who have never been to New York will be convinced that you are actually writing about New York, especially when your details involve things found anywhere, like hot dog vendors, kids and picnics. This may sound stupid, but the application of this concept can have staggering effects if done right.

Theater in the park

I just thought of a brilliant idea. Someone needs to get together a theater group to do an interactive version of Othello and other Shakespearian plays. They would naturally be amateur actors, someone who doesn't care how royally screwed up their version of Hamlet and other plays become.
The basic premise is this:
1. Perform the play as usual.
2. Allow audience members to shout directions at the actors, especially those that go against the plot.
3. Have the actors improvise their way through whatever horrible direction they've been given, i.e. Romeo decides to live and keep looking for Juliet, Hamlet decides that maybe he should search for more clues before killing everyone, etc.

Ups and downs

Some people talk about their month having its UPS and downs.
I have Fedex and downs.

Fruits

"If you could create a hybrid of any two fruits in the world, what would they be and why? Describe this new fruit (its name, taste, color, etc.)."

Grape and apple. I want to know what a real Grapple tastes like. The one I got in the store tasted like a nasty apple with a light dusting of grape flavoring sprayed on it. My Grapple would taste like real grape and real apple, like the Washington apple and not those bland flavorless ones. And the outside would look like the surface of a bunch of grapes applied to an apple.

Short story

"Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? `For sale: baby shoes, never worn.' He is believed to have called it his greatest literary work ever. Can you write a story in six words?"
