01.08.08 Story, Poem and Inspiration Point of the Week
Congrats go to lukewright and FTSE100 this week. The Inspiration Point remains the same as none of you commented on the idea - and only two people did it. It's a good one, I think, so take a look and try it out:

All comments and ideas for next week will be welcomed.
Well done FTSE!
Here's something I built for you in return for the smiley kit ;o)
I followed the stacks of Carl's brilliance attacks
and was gob smacked by ‘Equivalent VIII’
I had stacked a few bricks
which I was sure I could fix
to find the equivalent weight
For I knew that Andre's Gorblimey trousers
Were not the secret of his fame...
that if I wore a pair
and a bird's nest in my hair
the result would just not be the same.
It had to be the mass of the brick pile.
With neither too many nor too few
Arranged in a way
That would secretly say
I've built in a message for you.
People were awed by his audacity
The bricks stepping stones to a bridge
A means to break free...
To cross the stream and see.
That Shepherds can sell anything
To sheep such as we.
