Wow, this is the first and last time that I give you any story ideas...


I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

Now Philo is going to be a suicidal outcast, and he will be mirrored after me. :roll:

I write; therefore, I read.

On a serious note I am sorta confused as to what was happening there. Also we know what Philo did or said. We only know a little bit about what he thought-you may want to incorporate how some of this made Philo feel.

Of course how much time you spend on Philo depends on the rest of your story and what is going to be the focus of your story- characters-Philo has to travel to centuries to heal his marriage and his heart, an event-the time machine is going to destroy the world, or the world-look at all the cool places you can visit with the time machine. Of course you can do some of each of the categories but I work a lot better if I have a fairly verbose outline of the whole story.

You could have him go into the future and find that BYU has won 10 consecutive national championships in a row with Bronco now the President of the church.

so who is the new coach? I know the BBall coach will be Tyler Haws by then, but who could be the football coach? I think K-whit ends up joining the LES Events Staff so as to be close to a winning program.

The new coach would be Bronco's wife Holly. She got so interested watching football and listening to Bronco that she had all of the scheme down cold. Also she baked great cookies for the kids that she was recruiting. She won the last two NC's as the head coach.
