If life had a plot....

[TheEvilDoctor]

Suddenly it struck me!
What if life, that seems so pointless at times, has a plot just like a movie? And it would be different for everybody. What would you want the plot to be in yours? It can be about everything, contain zombies, aliens, whatever you want. Wouldn't it be interesting to have, like, a script about what happens in your life (which you of course can't read). Are you a Bruce Campbell who gets hit by disaster time after time after time? Do you want to meet giant spiders? Maybe travel to another planet? What would your script be if you could choose one?

I'm leaving for a few hours but I'll think of mine and post it here as soon as I come back :)

I would be the Hitchcockian lead, pursued without knowing why by an insidious worldwide criminal orginazation. It's a worldwide game of cat and mouse as I battle for my very survival. My only companion: a beautiful woman I may or may not be able to trust.
I assume this is the kind of thing you want.

"... Do you want to meet giant spiders? Maybe travel to another planet? "
.  .  .  .  I was gonna but I got rid of the morel in time, I'm staying in the Heavy World.  (I made a dumb literary reference... but the moon isn't a planet).
.  .  .  .  I always dug Oracles in horror films (the second 'Loomis' in particular).  So I guess a really cool character to be would be one of those old crazy guys, who shouts at young'ns about not goin' in the woods, and the like.  Blended with Dustin Hoffman's character from Hero.  I had to write a paper several years ago about my favorite character to be from any media and I chose Tommy Doyle from Halloween 6.

If life had a plot........cool I could have loads of fun time traveling.  Travel back in time.  I always was very interested in how people lived in the 1700's.  I'd have to go to Ireland since that is were some of my ancestors are from.  Maybe if i traveled back far enough I could find out what they really used Stone Henge for, maybe it wasn't just used as a Calendar.  Some of the circle of stones there were used for burning bodies down into ash.  Maybe they had virgin sacrifices there?
Might be interesting to find out what really happened in the past  and why.

The first half would be a lot like a porn movie and the second half would be about a guy who raised two golf pros and a doctor.
