Microfiction Monday #48 & #2

Microfiction Monday's mission: to write a response to a picture in 140 characters or less. Here is this week's picture:


And here is my response:

Spot the difference:

There are ten differences between these two girls, can you spot them all and stamp them out?

Answers on a postcard.

And once again here's two for the price of one. Here is the second Microfiction Monday picture:


And here is my response:

Few people could match Madame Mimi's skill at charming the fluffy yet savage boa.

Few people could survive a visit from Madame Mimi either.

I've found nine of them, Dave! First I had eleven but Mrs. Jim said the one's collar was just pulled up so we couldn't see hers. :)

Both were good Dave, I am going to see if I can spot the differences.

At A Girl Mimi, didn't all the Flappers have a way with all snakes.

Peggy said...

Liked both of them, do I get a priize?
I spotted 9 also.
Fun stuff.

I spotted 10, but one of them is the collar difference-subject to disqualification.

Where IS this Madame Mimi? I'll have a goa at her boa-grin!

Good 140's, liked 'em both. Thanks.
Steve (I also put up two...didn't realize we had a second picture from which to write.)

I like your take on this week's picture, Dave. You are creative and funny!

KB said...

Interesting take on the pic. I'm gonna to go back and see how many I can find.
Have a great week.

KB said...

P.S. The second pic is usually for next week so you are way ahead of the game :)

KB said...

Oh I see, the second pic must be your own. Loved that one too. Sorry for so many comments, must be haviing a blonde day :)

Ellie Garratt said...

I spotted nine! What a great idea - microfiction and puzzle. Loved it.

p.s. I’m running a competition this week and holding a blogfest in November. If you get time, pop along and have a look.

Susannah said...

Love the 'spot the difference' idea, nice one. ;-)

Deborah said...

Loved the idea, very clever! :o)

SouthLakesMom said...

A good idea!

Anonymous said...

Good one! Did you really take the time to find 10 differences between the two ladies? Wow!
Have a great week ahead. Cheers!

Dave said...

Thank you all for reading.

Confession time: I have no idea how many differences there are.

Sorry Steve, the second picture was actually the second Microfiction Monday that Susan posted. I'm getting caught up. I could have made that clearer.

Maude Lynn said...

I love your take on the first one!

steveroni said...

So...with two-a-week, you'll be all caught up by Christmas? Neat trick, Dave. Thanks for the EXPL. BOTH are real good, N M W No Matter What.

Your Microfic first pic is like chewing a wad of Wrigley's gum: readers can happily expect to double their pleasure!

What a crazy-fun take on today's image! This has been quite an adventure!

Well I be thinking that the madam would be more of a goer then the popes's footsolders. Thanks for dropping by to read my 140 Hope your week goes well.

Dave said...

Actually, Steve, at this rate, it'll take me until June next year to fill in the gaps!

Michael G-G said...

You make us work, and then you confess you have bushwhacked us... You are quite the Blofeld, my good man.

Have a great week.

hope said...

And since it's Monday, I was lazy and didn't count. Now I feel smart. :)

Well done.

Susan at Stony River said...

Oh excellent! I've played those newspaper puzzles before -- find the invisible football etc -- never won a thing of course!

Jami said...

ha! clever!

Akelamalu said...

Spot the Difference was a great take on the picture and I loved the fluffy boa too!

Dave said...

The trurh is out: I'm a supervillain with a stash of thousands of invisible footballs.

Thanks again. See you next Monday.
