Hot Dirigible
Tallulah felt the thick braids of the whicker basket through the soles of her running shoes. She imagined it matched the thick braids in her long blond hair. She was not sure about getting into a hot air balloon when she first arrived at the field near the Fort Crittenden Dam Park. She almost chickened out, but once they were up in the air she found the view utterly breathtaking. She could see the entire valley from their height.

Thursdéjàvu
Yesterday was Thursday, April 25th. Today is Thursday, April 25th. Tomorrow will be Thursday, April 25th. I have woken up to the same April 25th so many times that I have lost count. My alarm goes off at 6:30am and I see the sun cresting through the curtains of my bedroom window. I listen to the birds’ chirp their familiar tune, “chirp chirp chirp chirp whoop whoop whoop trillllll…” then 27 seconds of calm before it repeats.

Skeptical Specter Spectacle
One of my favorite television moments growing up was watching a show called Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction hosted primarily by Jonathan Frakes. As the show started the announcer would proclaim, “Tonight your challenge is to separate what is true from what is false. Five stories, some real, some fake. Can you judge which are fact and which are fiction? To find out, you must enter a world of both truth and deception, a world that is beyond belief.”

Manager, Daily Routine
RE: RE re: Open position: Manager, Daily Routine JOB: # 6-21-311iT TO: Aschenputtel, Brecken FROM: Manresources, Hugh Below is a copy of the resignation letter you requested. You are allowed to discuss points from this letter with candidates, anonymously, if it is beneficial to the corporate goals, but to answer your question, no you may not provide copies of this letter. It would be highly unprofessional and I don’t recommend it. If you have to be called in, it will be to my office and I don't want that for either of us.

Lost Art of Atropos Radsla
“This next unit is the final unit of the day. Unit A09.4.01.003 in section TA98. You’ll have a thirty second preview of the contents and then the bidding will begin at three hundred and fifty dollars. If you cross the yellow line, you will be disqualified,” said Kooky Kevin of Kooky Kevin’s Storage Emporium. He twirled his el bandito mustache in one finger and started a timer as his mousy assistant slid open the unit.
