My Top Five YouTube Channels
Maybe I am getting softer in my old age, but television and most movies do nothing for me now. Yes, I did see a few Hollywood films this past year – “Oppenheimer” and “Poor Things” – but I am more likely to rely on my own collection of DVDs and saved files that I have managed to compile and not betray by heading off to one of the online channels that gives you a taste of what’s out there, and then decides to remove them to make way for the next waste of time. I did this because I realized that someone was piggybacking onto my account, and that I preferred borrowing what I could from libraries and friends, or finding them at secondhand and surplus stores keeping the faith with us lovers of solid media.

The Very Last Star Wars Haiku
Note: Yes, I have been busy with quite a few other things with the approach of summer. I have still been dumping (sad word) books and trying to find a new place. A move might be on the docket, but I could not forget my Vocal fans, despite all the recent technical problems.

Versus I
Note: Again, I am in the middle of doing multiple things all at once. No luck on the househunting, but taxes are done, exams (first set) are marked (have time off to contemplate what my students do not know); I cleaned, swept, wiped and ran when I could. And it is a beautiful day to start sharing this particular idea.

Addiction - Chapter VI
Soon… Well, I promised you a story about the money, but I guess you want to know about that card now. My fault for jumping around like this, but I like these kinds of stories. You have to really pay attention to what’s going on; you gotta read the clues.

''60 seconds on the clock... Good luck.'' Well, he had to say it, didn't he? ''Good luck...'' If there was one thing that Gordon Roach did not want to hear with all the lights on him and that sing-song music playing all around them, it was that phrase. Why couldn't there be something else you said to someone in a moment like this; maybe ''Break a leg'' was a little too old?

Addiction - Chapter V
“…Real soon… Real soon.” “Sir?” I was back in the land of the living, so to speak. Well, sort of living. Another meeting with my board of directors and some talk about my health and my plans for the future. All led by that greasy Curtis. I wonder why I keep him around sometimes. I know more about him than I do about almost anyone else in the office, but he still makes me wonder…

The Guests
“Hey, should we tell some scary stories tonight?” I was looking out the window, not really paying attention to my brother or the rest of the family as the moon appeared. The snow was incredibly deep around our cabin, and there was not much else we could do. Quite a beautiful sight, really.
