An on that happy note let us take a good look around us and see who is here with us today. Do I spy something blue? Maybe a bird. A blue bird of … ? "Oh, no, I'm a Scots. We paint

You thought I looked like a bird? Like a phoenix maybe? I can see that. I've had people tell me that I look like a phoenix. They're very convincing. I guess it depends on how much

When I say "I've had people", I mean that I commanded people to say or do whatever I've said I had them say or do. I'd rather you know I'm all business than have you think me vain

I understand why god's first act as god was to establish his own cheering squad. The seraphim. Angels who's sole job was to praise him. "Fuck the algorithm," God said. Mic drop.

It has come to my attention [a place where ideas go to die] that I, being me, that is, the one claiming First Voice here, I … might use the comma too frequently. Haphazardly maybe.

For instance, in that last two word sentence I I felt that it needed at least one comma. Make the case, then muddy the waters. That is the way I should have done it. I blame the

It is in the nature of the beast. It will happen often enough that you will know to avoid those stories. Not that that helps in any way. The blood shed will just happen to somebody

I get it. Sometimes your character is so damned real that you feel it when he or she dies because the next folder dropped them. That character's story arc is over. Then Kevn & Ai

He didn't know how he knew but Kevn knew Ai was in the ship's AI. She probably infiltrated his REM patterns to let him know she was there. Pure Ai for sure. Risky business that.

The AI was always looking for points where it might be infiltrated. How Ai got into the AI would blow the minds of robots with brains the size of planets. But it was a secret. None

It was in the best interest of everybody concerned to not look concerned or interested in any interesting concerns that might concern or interest them. Her ongoing concern drew his

"The new boyfriend? Simply put, I was whelmed. Flamboyant is so passé with her. She only needs his artwork after he's dead. Why prolong the torture? She doesn't inspire his work."

The video ended. The room remained quiet. Then Mitchell Brothers piped up. "Why did I look so disheveled in that last scene?" Miss Shipton pointed out, "You looked impeccable to me

The Bee King donned his apparatus. It made him look like a bug eyed monster. He liked that. He pressed a button on his belt and took a heroic pose. When nothing happened he pushed

I used to fantasize about being Walter Mitty imagining all the fun things he could do. I'd be Walter Mitty pretending to be MacArthur returning to the Philippines with a corn cobb

How many times did a shiny new 2nd lieutenant promise to be back up that hill and die trying? Their determination had no impact on the bullet that found them. That bullet impacted

"I Spake with a clear Voice and nothing happened. Only after I took to the booze and smokes could I really say Behold." God was having a Total Eclipse of the Heart, but how could I

One time, I think I was maybe 5, I kept annoying my mom who was breastfeeding my little sister. She tried to swat me away. She misjudged it and punched me hard. I lost my breath.

Samsa G. left the QuikMart & went around the corner to beat himself up for buying more than one lottery ticket. "You should've had more faith in your 1st ticket asshole." Bystander

Fyodor began to see how the lottery & a swearing in were the same lame game. Llamas knew it as well. An alpaca with maracas wrapped in Alaskan damask asked an aging apparatchik at
