Short Fiction: Quick, Is How You Should Leave.
In Places Like That. (cont.)
(Part 2.)
The layout was a narrow rectangle.
It was a room with three choices. Go left, sit at the bar. Go Right, there's a row of two-top's against the wall with clean plastic ashtrays waiting in their centers. Nobody ever… Read full post »
In Places Like That.
"You're so weird. What were you doing in a place like that?"
"What was I supposed to do, sit in the car by myself and freeze to death?"

We were standing side by side at the double vanity getting ourselves ready for dinner. I was nearly ready because, afterall, I had had all day. Kara was next to me but she didn't have her clothes on yet. She shadowed her… Read full post »
Picture of the Day

Cropped from a family reunion picture of 15 or so. She jumped into the lens.
A little pure optimism shared; in a world of front pages these days devoid of that precious commodity.

My Christmas Story - Can I Come Too?
Me and Tiger
It's been almost a week now since the richest man in sports, with the gigawatt smile and (apparently) the self-control of a Tibetan Monk, has be exposed for the lying scoundrel with all the morals of a starving alley cat, he really is. (Apologies to alley cats). Howeve… Read full post »
Another cold front’s uncurling across Florida and blowing hard; it’s licking up waves on the bay the size of manila envelopes and ripping open their papery tops. Same old shit. I cursed the ugly sight out-loud and returned back inside my condo, pulling the sliding glass do
