Inspired by Matt's Tiny Story about the history of the telephone: http://www.hitrecord.org/records/123201/forum - I thought it would be neat to have a little spin off to to the tiny stories project. The idea is to write a fake factual sounding history/description/definition for a place/animal/object/etc. (See the featured RECord below for an example,) It doesn't have to be limited to text RECords: film yourself in a mockumentary talking about the overly elaborate made up origins of the foxtrot, make vintage adverts advertising the first whipped cream made with real whips, or old fashioned newsreels telling how the city of Manchester was founded by a guy distinctly fond of the hair on his pecs! (The only thing to watch out for would be copyrighted trademarks - try to stick to more common every day generic items like rocking chairs or hats or somesuch.)
