This is a forum game where you make up a story. You add one word to the previous word, and the next poster adds another to form a story.
Rules:
1) Proper nouns (specific people or places) only count as one word, even if they are normally more than one word.
2) You can only post again after 5 other people have posted. Don't hog up the story.
I might chum out some prizes as we go along.
Starting word: Once
