It's not to long ago I started commenting more regular, and before Caitlyn gave me the advice of creating a blogger account I used to sign my anonymous comments with "Helena"<br /><br />I can tell from my own experience, that if you at least sign a comment with a name, the interaction between you and the blogger you comment on, like Dee here, will change. Get better, because they recognize and remember you.<br />You don't need to use your real name of course.<br />And it's nice to have a name for someone, other than Anonymous;)Helena Radianthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07628278680037628856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-56632544412956321342013-05-09T03:56:55.229-04:002013-05-09T03:56:55.229-04:00Thanks for posting your reactions and thanks espec...Thanks for posting your reactions and thanks especially to Dee!

Love that. <br /><br />Well, Anonymous. I Agree with Dee. It is good. Congratulations on the nice job you did, and thank you for the lovely bonus for me to read.<br />"Interact and your enjoyment can grow exponentially. Trust me!" I can see by your reaction, you discovered Dee was right.<br /><br />"Now I am positively glowing with the positive feedback!"<br />"The encouragement and recognition captioning peers and fans makes you walk on air!"

Great cap and once again you see a whole story in a single frame and write is so perfect. Again and again you prove to be one of my favorite caption artists.

I thought it was very good nonetheless, so I had a few minutes to plug it into my setting, with only a few minor tweaks.

Not a captioner myself but since you've put the invitation out there, here's what I come up with:<br /><br />"Karen felt dazed and confused. . .confused at being confused. Everyone back-stage called her by name without hesitation or question and smiled at her with delighted recognition. So why had it seemed so unfamiliar back there? At least the stage seemed very familiar. . .but even that. . .It was like she had never seen it from this perspective before. She wasn't used to having to squint into the light. In her head, she thought she could hear the fading echoes of someone she thought had been named "Keith" calling "Yeah, take it all off, Bitch!" Her eyes rolled back into her head. She gave her body a shake and the respondent cheers and whistles pushed all thoughts of uncertainty aside. She knew exactly what the men in the crowd wanted to watch and see. She knew exactly what things to do and how to do them. She didn't care whether she knew all this from having done it a thousand times before. . or having watched it a thousand times before."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-85178909488416397572013-05-05T10:58:49.441-04:002013-05-05T10:58:49.441-04:00Yeah, the only way to watch "Incredibly Stran...Yeah, the only way to watch "Incredibly Strange Creatures .." is to find the MST3k version, as its a bit more fun to deal with. For a better horror musical, try "Devil's Carnival" which I included a clip from in my music section. Made by the same people that did "Repo: A Genetic Opera".<br /><br />I think that Simone might be right. The way you described the picture seems just like what you would do with it, especially the trapped aspect of it.Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-18718826968736312632013-05-05T06:11:55.948-04:002013-05-05T06:11:55.948-04:00Great cap Dee!

Where you saw a newly transformed girl leaving a show, I see a newly transformed girl peeking out onto the stage. Maybe seeing someone else get transformed, or maybe even something bad happening to the magician ensuring that she'll stay in this body forever. <br /><br />I looked up that movie and was all ready to add it to my 'movies to watch' list, when I noticed a few key words.... "The film was billed as the first "monster musical".<br /><br />Monster Musical? Umm... no thanks!Caitlyn Maskedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732033913089350905noreply@blogger.com
