• Freak Out

    It might seem a tad-bit paranoid, but last night, my dogs did their best to scared me half-to-death. As I laid in bed later, I imagined their conversation going something like this: “I’m kinda bored,” thinks Yaeger, “Wanna freak the old man out?” “Yeah, but how?” Buddy asks in silence. “Jus’ follow my lead,” Yaeger…

  • Where the Sky is Always Dark

    The sky was a darker pallet of stars now, and he had no way of knowing how long he’d lain at the base of the hill. In fact, Bobby Davis was slow to recall how in the world he’s come to to be there in the first place. Reflecting as hard as he could, all…

  • Sound and Silence

    “Hey, the program for recording sound is on the fritz,” Tom told Chief-slacker. “Okay, I’ll be there in a few minutes,” Slacker said, hanging up the phone. Half-an-hour later Slacker arrived and went immediately to work to fix the problem. It took him two-hours and several reboots of the computer to finally get the system…
