He is standing up in front of a bunch of government officials or legisl...

I am trying to find a story I read many years ago wherein, some time in the future, students wanted to put on a Shakespearean play but the censors found so many words had been banned and for disparate reasons, that the only words the students could use were "and" and "the". Does this sound famil...

I am currently searching for a book (could also be a web or light novel). I read the story about a year ago. Its about a girl who got transported to another world or perhaps the future.

Looking for a movie I saw in the mid-2000's. I think some of it was set in Florida. A kid is being chased by government ops. They're trying to catch him before he is reunited with his people. They think he's an alien but he's really from a higher dimension of earth. Scene at the end where the bar...
