: I changed interent services to a local company so I got a new e-mail address. The old one, jimradatz@runestone.net, will no longer work. The new one is:
: jlradatz@runestone.net
: Thank You.
: Also--Let me say right off the bat that this is in NO WAY trying to copy Telecam's "Indiana Jones and the Curse of Avator," a very interesting story so far, might I add. No, this is Indy fan fiction of my own making, and believe it or not, this idea of mine has been around for a long time, I just haven't totally comitted myself to it in the past.
: Anyway, this idea was all created as something to entertain my little sister. She reeeeaaally likes stories, so I made one up: Indiana Jones and the Curse of the Mummy's Eye. Basically, it's a lot like ToD, with Indy battling Thuggees and running around in an ancient temple--only this "temple" is actually a pyramid in the middle of the Egyptian desert! It starts out in India, with Indy coming across ANOTHER temple, deep underground. He doesn't know it yet, but it's a Thuggee mine. Anyway, a village shaman gives Indy a "Mind's Eye Pendandt"--a pendandt in the shape of an eye similar to the one that symbolizes the Egyptian Sun-God Ra. Of course the pendandt has magical properties. So Indy goes to Cairo to meet with Sallah. They find out about the Thuggee Pyramid in some back-alley bar, and head off to the pyramid.
: You'll see a lot of familiar ToD faces, and a few that you might not expect. Of course there's a female interest for Indy--a little more his "type" than people say Willie Scott was in Temple. It's heavy on the action, light on the dialouge, and more than a little familiar. But hey, it's something to tide me down until Indy IV! My lil' sister likes it, but then, she's easy to please... If I'm going to make it worth reading, I'll have to un-kiddy-ize it and beef it up with a little more story.
: But I've been thinking of typing it up anyway, so I figured I'd ask you guys if you're interested at all in this project. If y'ar, then post a follow up.

Story sounds cool. I'd love a copy when it's ready.
