What would you do with this opening line?

"It's a recipe for disaster, serves one or more. Let's get cooking!"

Tell me more of this story...

Well, if I could actually write, it's the perfect opening to having some group of people prepare one sacrificial planet or another for the appetite of the local great devourer.

Actually, it could easily play out somewhat similarily to the plot of the last episodes of the Justice League before it went Justice League Unlimited with the Thanagarian occupation.

"On one side, the challenger Takamachi Shiro.  On the other, we have Iron Chef Japanese Saotome Ranma.  Whose cuisine will reign supreme?"

I've been writing a bit.

"On one side, the challenger Takamachi Shiro. On the other, we have Iron Chef Japanese Saotome Ranma. Whose cuisine will reign supreme?"

"This is not the work of a cook." (Except that Shiro and Ranma are each far more interesting that what's-his-name, Segal's character...)

I was going to say it's the Preface to a reprinting of The Anarchist Cookbook.  Then I did a little (extremely little, Wikipedia in fact) research and discovered that there's an anarchist group that's put out their own "cookbook," literally titled Recipes for Disaster.

I had a friend that had a copy of that book. She didn't have any real anarchistic tendencies, she was just a true bibliophile - she loved collecting banned books.

Anyhow, more on topic...

You know, Rob, that could actually sum up Dear Sweet Kami-sama, Why Do You Hate Me So? quite nicely.

[robkelk]

Feel free to put it on the virtual back cover, then...

You Rob, that would be the opening line to a chapter on engineering disasters.
