Greedings
In conscience I cannot Send this To anyone. Sat 6 Ape 2524 Greedings, It’s muggy, still, and in the 70’s. Windows being open helps little; it’s 19:32 and not yet cooling. In the coming week, snow is forecast. More rain, … Continue reading

Small Changes
They had a clown standee filched from a theater one had worked at. It folded in half as if bowing. Easy to transport. When they wanted, they could open it, flash the clown, fold it, and be gone. They flashed … Continue reading
