a game of cut-ups: your participation requested

At semester's end, I need a little distraction, a little play. So, I suggest a writing game: cut-ups, where a piece of writing is created from randomly selected sentences and phrases. Your task: email me (mhelquist at gmail.com) a line of text (something you've created or something you've borrowed) and I will assemble the lines in the order they arrive. Once I have a chunk of lines, I will post the results here. You can send more than one line, but please send them in separate emails so as not to disrupt the randomness of the project. If you send lines from published texts, provide some sort of citation so we know the genesis of the final product.
