Think of the world of tomorrow, ten, twenty, one hundred years into the future. What will the world be like? How will the people act? What kind of stories would they tell? In this contest, you are to write the opening paragraphs to a story set in the near or far future. Remember, this is opening paragraphs, so leave the readers hanging (they hate and love that at the same time.)

The rules of the game are thus: Write the opening paragraphs to a futurist story. A 300 word limit will be strictly enforced. Keep in mind that profanity is not acceptable. As always, quality is a must, we will remove poor entries no matter how much we like you. You will have 7 days for this contest so make your submissions count.
