Sorry... you know I'd love to, but I have a Kestral sequel to finish, a redesign of the SJB, ongoing collaboration with Rita on the Read an E-Book Week site, my bride to murder, and Guilder to blame for it. I'm swamped.

It wasn’t as if Percy disliked sports, but having no legs and arms certainly added a handicap to his performance; that is, until he discovered a new sport, one that he was actually quite adept at: He found that by rolling along the gym floor much like a football kicked haphazardly across an open field, he could get the boys on the basketball team to chase him as he rolled about on the lacquered floor of the gym, albeit with an astonishing amount of skill (except when he got tired), the only problem being that his nose very often got bloodied in the process or else when extremely well-aimed kicks would land on his groin, face, stomach, his backside, his side, the back of his head, his ears, or on his mouth.

Seriously:

Do we want any "last man on earth sat in his room" sentences? (Remember, the last post will be #350 - only 16 more to go.)

The last man on earth woke up to the smell of frying Hispaniolan Solinodon and thought how thankful he was that there was one woman left to cook him breakfast.

The last man on Earth stood up and slapped his hands together as he went to the wall and turned off the lights.

The last man on earth sat in his room and watched television and wondered when the next utility bill would come due, the answer coming a moment later when he looked out the window and saw three large aliens, each one striding purposefully across the field of corn, and then his television went dark.

The last man on earth stood looking in the mirror at his full nakedness, then glanced over to view the last woman on earth sprawled on the bed and declared "Crikey, the human race is going to take one ugly turn".

The last man on Earth spun about in his chair, determined to fulfill his last duty to his home planet with dignity and reserve; after surveying the global monitor screens, confirming that there was nothing left he could do for his dying planet, he said, in a voice that even the computers would have registered as steady and commanding, "All right, Evac Phase Omega is in effect... let's turn out the lights and get this ship moving."

The last man on Earth sat in his chair dejectedly, as the last dog on Earth looked up at him and said, "I told you not to open it."

(Only ten left!)

[Dr. Drib]

The last man on earth came into my office and sat at my computer desk, pushing me roughly aside, and then rewrote the sentence to read, “The last man on earth came into his office and sat at his computer desk, pushing the unreliable narrator aside and then killed him with three letters: “D,” “I,” “E.”

The last man on earth expelled a final death rattle, while the last man's man's best friend sat there repeating "Where's my breakfast, where's my breakfast".

[ShortNCuddlyAm]

The last man on earth panicked at the enormity of the task before him, he didn't know where to begin or if he would even finish his one task, the words of which still echoed around his head: "would the last man on earth please put the chairs up and turn off all the lights"

[Steven Lyle Jordan]

The last sentence on Earth, having no need to impart information to anyone, ended.

(I was gonna try to hold out and nail 350 with this one, but I decided life's too short.)
