Mulligan!

OK, my participation in the official 24 hour comics day was a flu-induced train wreck. Now I am flu-free and full of caffeine, and ready to make another go of it. Will I succeed? only time will tell...

What I have so far, my list of "audience suggestions" from the fabulous Infinite Improbability Drive widget at the H2G2 Wiki site:

Non-geographic numbers http://ezinearticles.com/?Benefits-of-Non-Geographic-Numbers&id=4906154
Magnetism http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A767162
...Tractor Pulls http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A281594
Organic Food http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A575679
The Berlin Airlift http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A638976
Eddie Irvine, Formula One driver http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A307405
Sauna Whisk (Finnish skin care / exfoliation) http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A902558
Blairgowrie, Perthshire, Scotland, UK (farming village famous for raspberry growing) http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A1149293
Malaysian Teapot Worship - The Ayah Pin Cult http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A38083476
the Higgs boson (Particle Physics - a hypothetical particle, yet to be detected, which explains why other particles have mass) http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A851429
William Dampier - Pirate, Explorer and Naturalist http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A15883374

 and the resulting story thread so far:

There is a rivalry between Farmer Brown and Old MacDonald.
Old Mac has one of every kind of animal. One, very virile male of every animal, and a successful stud service. Old Mac is an animal pimp. He also has a kid at CERN, who has managed to detect and harness the
elusive Higgs boson. Because of ...this, they have pimped up their ride (tractor) and can control its mass, which makes it nigh-on invincible at the tractor pulls.
Farmer Brown, he has a dog. Of course. He also has a boutique organic produce farm. And he has a secret weapon...

I will continue to incorporate as much of the original suggestion list as I can, and post the results to my DeviantART gallery at http://rockie-squirrel.deviantart.com/
