  • I find it odd that too often a story will say about somebody "they were never seen nor heard from again" and the very next folder will have us hearing or seeing them again.

  • to conduct their courting ritual (which consisted of Custer putting on a Punch-and-Judy-esque puppet show while Springy clipped his toenails)...they were soulmates for life!
  • Springy wondered briefly what it was about Punch-and-Judy that made Custer amorous. But it was only a lovers passing thought. Springt's thoughts turned to Buicks

    Woab, since you and I are from the same Universe, but still slightly opposite, I am typing this from The Opposite Side of the Other Side.

    So, which one of us is upside-down, Jimbeau? I think it's me. I feel a little woozy...

    Woab, we each take turns being upside-down; the problem is, when you are upside-down and feeling woozy, I'm right-side up and feeling halfway insane. My only respite is to follow your clever line with something equality as clever.

    ...that should be equally, not equality.

    We inspire and confuse each other with equality, here.

    We're forever linked through this time and moment. It is happening, of that I'm sure. Where it ends, we can't ignore.
