It's quite the drive between the school where I work and my home. The majority of the 45 minute drive is spent on winding back roads. The only thing you can be sure of on these roads is that you can never be certain of what you might see. Once, a chicken literally crossed the … Continue reading On the Drive Home

Omelet Shoppe Confessions
The Omelet Shoppe. It's a magical place where the craziest things can happen after 2am. During the college years, the Omelet Shoppe was the place to go if you were hungry in the middle of the night.

A Fistful of Questions
I thought I was gonna have more participation with this thing. But, oh well. Two people asked plenty of questions and they will receive plenty of answers. Maybe I'll do this again someday.

What Would You Do With Immortality?
I kind of crashed a girls' night last night. As things went, it was never actually stated that what was happening was intended to be a girls' night.

Question of the Week #11
You are given the power to kill people simply by thinking of their deaths and twice repeating the word "good-bye." People would die a natural death and no one would suspect you. Are there any situations in which you would use this power? That's a horrible power. Unless you're some kind of super-villain. Personally, I … Continue reading Question of the Week #11
Karate Kid
I went to the mall once and ran into a karate instructor. I assume he was there trying to drum up business for a local dojo. That's what it's called, right? If watching The Karate Kid has taught me anything, it's that they used all the correct terminology in that movie. Anyway, this guy wasn't … Continue reading Karate Kid
We All Scream
Several years ago, I noticed something odd in my mother's neighborhood. During the summer, late in the afternoons, a strange sound would come from outside. The first time I heard the sound, I was immediately transported back to a more innocent time. A time when I was young. A time when you could chase a … Continue reading We All Scream
