Personal Challenge #6 Clash of the Titans?

Methinks we'll be hamming it up a bit this week, or at least having a laugh or two... seems a good idea after last week's tale.

 Why do I do this? To encourage myself to continue writing and to explore new genres and voices; to see what I can achieve. Each week I select disparate images and concoct a short story which connects them in some fashion - the results have been interesting. Feel free to join in if you like.

The first photo comes to us through the good graces of John Gray. (You can view the original by going Here.) Thanks John!



And here is the second, equally adorable, photo:


I feel a major (and funny) clash of wills coming on, how about you? Anthropomorphizing here we come! 

And now, appropos of absolutely nothing, a bit of new (to me) music which I like:

      Aren't they, Strayer... and Miss Winnie is a thoroughly charming diva. If you haven't been to John's blog you should go; he and his passle of animals will make you smile. Glad you liked the music, it charmed me thoroughly.

      Isn't it a great one, John was so kind to let me borrow it! Methinks the resulting tale is going to be a bit of a frolic.
