  1. "God saved him. The cow helped." — Uncle of a two-year-old boy from Chelsea, MA. His nephew survived a sixteen-foot fall from a second-story window. The boy was bouncing on his bed and bounced right out the window. Lucky for the boy, he was holding on to a large stuffed cow that he safely landed on. The boy received only minor injuries for his misadventure.
  2. You are asking me to imagine a photograph that doesn't exist and for the purpose of comparing it to one that does exist and for the sole desire of a needless disquisition. I'll pass.
  3. I'm not sure I've ever had that effect on anyone, not that they've told me anyway. Thanks, Drew. Um, I think I'll leave pie in your domain.
  4. I do hope you didn't hurt anything. No guffaws here, but your comments definitely had me chuckling, Gary. Thanks a bunch!
  5. Thank you. I'm so glad that you liked my story, Defiance19.
  6. Thank you, Cia. Humor seemed the best direction to take and since my geometry skills are laughable...
  7. Thank you, Aditus. The story just seemed to magically, or was that maniacally, come to me. At your service dear, laughter is good for the soul. Thanks. I'm thrilled that you liked the story, Lyssa. But, I believe you meant to say that the story was Mathnificent! There, all better now.😜 Thank you, Dolores. Believe me, this story was a true surprise for me, too. I'll take that compliment, tim. Thank you Cool! Thanks, Northie. Ha, made you laugh. Thanks, Freerider. Thank you, BHopper2. I'd say this was more in the nature of a Loony Toons short, but on the secret, back channel not the kiddy one.

    My Champion

    Funny, you'd think there'd be a champion handbook: "Champion care - 101."; "What are a champions limits?"; and the always important chapter, "Host restrictions, what are they?" See, you did strike a reader's imagination, Cia.😉 I liked your short fiction, a lot!
  9. Who-hoo! What was that you said, Alcohol Bottle? Read it again? That was some loco story telling, Ganbrews. Groovy writing, man!

    Atop the Height

    Ah, the old switcharoo, put the beginning at the end. That was a good choice and it worked well for your short piece, Drew.

    Bradley's Morning

    Who knew fairies were so acid tongued? Nice imagery, Wayne.

    Courting Ruin

    Huh? What just happened? Oh, a cat joke!😏 Good one, tim. Now it all makes sense.👍🏻

    Davey Bishop

    That was interesting, Valkyrie. I liked the stalker misdirection.
  14. Ah, I have been misdirected (snickers)!

    Mystery Machine

    Somebody sure has a darn good imagination, and you put it to good use, too. I liked it.
  16. "This is what happened..." You wrote a really, really nice scene, Puppilull, that's what happened.

    False Flag

    I like space dramas and this was a good scene, Dolores. Sniff, sniff you did my two little nouns proud.👍🏻

    An Uncommon Daisy

    You had a nice little vignette going for you, Northie, you did. But did you stop there? No! You just had to go and add that last line and elevate this short story into something special.

    Radiated Love

    I liked it, imaginative and gritty (no pun intended [well, maybe a little pun was intended]).

    Cherry Pie Short

    Ooh, student teacher intrigue. Lots of graduation ceremonies going on in the greater Boston area—a story like this seems quite fitting at this time of year. I wonder if any cap snafus happened around here?
  21. Circle opened the front door and found a Loop. Circle stared, shocked, but then Circle remembered he had a value and… with certain Geometrics, a Loop is quite valuable. Not that Circle had any call for a Loop, not really, not with the attention he was receiving from Square. Still, Square was being sexually pushy and Circle wondered if he might have to give in and let Square do what he wished to do (and soon). Fortunately today wouldn’t be the day and because Loop was young and in need of care, C
  22. I was recently in Barnes and Noble (bookstore for those that don't know the name) and saw Tolkien's books made with some very fancy material (close to leatherette) for their covers. I liked the look and feel of the books.
  23. Back in the seventies and into the early eighties guys wore short shorts—yes, I did too—and they were fashionable and looked good. Gay men, of course, pushed the envelope and it wasn't all that surprising when something showed its head; supposedly that wasn't on purpose. Sure, and I have a bridge to sell ya.😉

    Why We Write Flash Fiction

    I actually managed to write a quick one hundred seventy-six word prompt (#332) story once. It's harder than people think to write something so brief, especially if you're a real talker out here in the world of spoken words and conversation.
  25. Private Romeo is Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet set in a young men's military academy with an all male cast. I enjoyed this movie a lot. The movie is available to buy and rent on Amazon (free to watch with Prime), and you can buy (maybe rent) it on iTunes.
