FUZZ ORDAINED: Lilian and Schuyler

     Lilian’s eyes shifted left again, away from him.  She wished that just once she could walk somewhere without some guy deciding so small a woman would be easy to pick up.  And this was an especially unsavory specimen.  She shot him another quick look: he hadn’t shaved, he owned a potbelly which was puttingContinue reading “FUZZ ORDAINED: Lilian and Schuyler”

History Corner

     I have saved you time on research through the Interwebs several times now, and I shall do so again.  I need only make use of a magic phrase regularly beats all the search engines the computer savants can throw at you.      “Nobody really knows.”      This time around, I was inspired by makingContinue reading “History Corner”

FUZZ ORDAINED: Twos and Twos

     Unfirom was not quite able to shudder.  As he strode across the park, the thought of the phronik trying to handle their job one at a time, though, brought him fairly close.  An attempt to influence lovers by less than the full crew would bring on a rush of lopsided emotion.  He reassured himselfContinue reading “FUZZ ORDAINED: Twos and Twos”

Before Chips & Salsa

     Now, about ketchup.      As those of you around the globe who rush to read this blog will recall, I do NOT write a food blog.  In spite of which, we HAVE discussed ketchup before.  But I was wandering around the Interwebs and thought of a thing or two that need to be said.Continue reading “Before Chips & Salsa”

Get a Long Little

     We have, in this space, discussed what the postcard artists of days gone by thought of dogs or cats or chickens generally, but many parts of the animal world have sub-categories which had their own themes and jokes.  Among the many jokes about, say, Scottish terriers or bloodhounds, we have a significant number ofContinue reading “Get a Long Little”

FUZZ ORDAINED: How It’s Done. Or Not

     “They don’t LOOK like they’re in love,” said Meadow Saffron, flinging flower petals after the trio.      “They’re just pretending,” Sweet Pea assured her.  “You can tell.”      Rick turned.  “Who said ‘Remember me’?”      “I gave you a card,” Paula reminded him.      “It didn’t sound like you.”  He shrugged.  “Must have beenContinue reading “FUZZ ORDAINED: How It’s Done. Or Not”

FICTION FRIDAY: Faded Memory

     Matthew Melt glared along the cracked sidewalk.  “I remember the houses being whiter.”      “I suppose you remember the grass being greener,” replied the orange and black individual, without expression.      Matthew glared at Mohankle.  The parchment with the spell on it had not been inexpensive, the ingredients for a potion not easy toContinue reading “FICTION FRIDAY: Faded Memory”

Bunnies, bunnies, bunnies

     It seems to me that though we have done our due diligence in reporting o the behavior of dogs and cats (and chickens and storks and skunks) on postcards, we have been ignoring an only slightly less popular postcard mammal.  We have spoken very little on the activities of rabbits, bunnies, and bunny rabbits.Continue reading “Bunnies, bunnies, bunnies”

FUZZ ORDAINED: Once a Pun a Time

     Daring—very daring—to slide onto a bench which was already occupied.  But Paula thought the next bench looked dirty.  The air was cool, though, and the sky, if cloudy, was bright.  Anyone with an experience of movies knew murderous attacks took place on rainy nights or shadowy pathways.      She cast a wall-eyed glance atContinue reading “FUZZ ORDAINED: Once a Pun a Time”
