[Danny McG]

Well hep cats, here's hoping you find this straight from the fridge

 

[wagtail]

Cool, man.

 

[Cat's Cradle]

Surf's up already - dang, that's an amazing first entry, Victoria, well done.

I have no idea where my creative mind will lead me on this one, but it should be fun. Interesting choices, Danny!

edit - another hep story, well done Ashleyne! I think I will have to stop reading these, and just think for a few days...

 

[Astro Pen]

Somewhere 45 heads are initially going: Volkswagen Camper Van!
44 of them are then saying "Nah" including mine.

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

Ashleyne grooves on mellow vibes.

 

[Marvin]

After reading the first couple, I might have to tap out.
Not having taken any illicit substances in my life, I feel at a distinct disadvantage. Not that l’m implying anything obviously!

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

Astro Pen trips with a groovy chick.

 

[Alex The G and T]

Whoa, hep cat, I see three incarnations of Sal Paradise pop up helter skelter.

I'm thinking more "Electric Cool-aid Acid Test" or Sean Penn in "Dazed and Confused."

Cowabunga!

 

[Karn's Return]

I am still contemplating strangling you with my broccoli pod hands, Danny! XD

 

[M. Robert Gibson]

Anyone remember when a bunch of space hippies hitched a ride on The Enterprise?

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

jd73 has a bummer of a bad trip.

 

[Calliopenjo]

Hi there everyone,
I know I've been away for a while. I had stuffs to take care of the last of which involved real life. I'm here now though and looking forward to the challenges. I trust those who celebrated Halloween had fun and stayed safe.

I don’t think it’s compulsory to interpret ’transportation’ as a drugs high, thank goodness, though it’s a natural jump when the theme is beatnik/hippy/surfer dude. I imagine that’s what @Danny McG had in mind when he set the challenge though, the devil!

 

[Danny McG]

No no no - I was thinking about, er (*long pause to think* aha! ) Camper vans, yes that's it, camper vans and beach buggies.

Phew!

 

[Bren G]

I'm in!

A tough one to be sure but it's great to stretch oneself. Nicely done Danny.

Mine is an irreverent take on a Mel Brooks classic!

 

[Bren G]

No no no - I was thinking about, er (*long pause to think* aha! ) Camper vans, yes that's it, camper vans and beach buggies.

Phew!

Don't fret. I'm in the gutter with you!

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

Bren G chills out with a cool buddy.

Abernovo hangs a perfect ten with a bitchen hot dog.

 

[Karn's Return]

I do hope that this never comes up again as a theme or a genre. XD Shudder to harken back to the days of Kipling. And Tudorpunk. (Which I never did come up with something for, goes to show. My boundless imagination and it came up with nothing that month.)

@Bren G .... The End Credits .... Yo, Tonto, when the end comes; chill out man.

@Abernovo .... The Wave-Sweeper .... Like ya know man, the wave sweeper is like, tubular!
