Online generators of any kind tend to suck my time and make me happy (still love the conversation heart generator). So when I found a Fairy Tale Generator the other day, I almost didn't know what to do with myself.
Based on Vladimir Propp's studies of structure in Russian folk tales, the Proppian Fairy Tale Generator lets you pick your desired plot themes such as struggle, villainy, rescue, and weddings, and the generator does its thing.

Sources are buzzing that Star Jones and her “is-he-or-isn’t-he-gay” husband Al Reynolds are heading for divorce court. So far, the couple’s press rep is denying the reports, but The National Enquirer says otherwise. It’s hard to tell with The Enquirer.

Stardust
Stardust was exactly what I was hoping it would be. A witty, well acted, old fashioned fairy tale. Michelle Pfeiffer stole the show, but all of the leads were excellent.

A long time ago there were a king and queen who said every day, "Ah, if only we had a child," but they never had one.
But it happened that once when the queen was bathing, a frog crept out of the water on to the land, and said to her, "Your wish shall be fulfilled, before a year has gone by, you shall have a daughter."
What the frog had said came true, and the queen had a little girl who was so pretty that the king could not contain himself for joy, and ordered a great feast.

A certain miller had little by little fallen into poverty, and
had nothing left but his mill and a large apple-tree behind
it. Once when he had gone into the forest to fetch wood, an
old man stepped up to him whom he had never seen before, and
said, why do you plague yourself with cutting wood, I will
make you rich, if you will promise me what is standing behind
your mill. What can that be but my apple-tree, thought the
miller, and said, yes, and gave a written promise to the
stranger.

After attending a cheery little GOP Christmas party, and in the charitable spirit of the season, Wall Street Journal columnist and Republican stalwart Peggy Noonan reflected on the Bush years Friday. She declares that when historians look back on Bush and try to sum it all up, they will most likely say something like: "At least he kept us safe." Merry Christmas President Bush.
