The Accidental Terrorist

Against the Storm. Content Warning.
The vast, unforgiving expanse of the open sea stretched endlessly in all directions, the horizon an unbroken line of darkness against the midnight sky. In the midst of this watery abyss, a small fishing boat, battered and frail, rode the colossal waves like a fragile leaf in a tempestuous storm.

Tears of redemption
Quite a long time ago in a modest community that could equal the appeal of any sitcom, there carried on with a man-kid named Jerry. Jerry was what you could call an adult blockhead. He wore confounded socks, had an inclination for horrendous plays on words, and would never oppose a messy father joke. His life was an unending stream of flummoxes, misjudged zingers, and unplanned incidents. Yet, in the midst of all the chuckling he caused, Jerry was likewise on a mission for something more profound — a journey for recovery.

What I Did Before My Summer Vacation...
It was all my fault. I saw her arm rise, bent and coming up fast, with the fingers tight in what looked like a claw more than a fist and her face was tense. It was like she knew what she had to do. I was happy about that because I thought that I deserved whatever she had to dish out. I had been a dumb-ass for most of the year. She was only responding with anger to my mistakes, doing what I may have done (shoe and the other foot). We had been together for a while... and at least we dated.

Welcome Home, Craig. Content Warning.
“Caledonia you’re calling me and now I’m coming home” – Caledonia by Dougie Maclean I had just boarded the last stage of my long trek home from New York to Glasgow at London Heathrow. Another hour or so and I would be on home turf again for the first time in a decade. Was I looking forward to it? In some ways, yes. Glasgow has always been my first love. It is where I grew up, got my education, where I met the love of my life before screwing it up beyond repair. There’s a line in the song Caledonia by Dougie Maclean “I have moved, and I’ve kept on moving, proved the points I needed proving.” That, at least in part, explains why I moved, despite loving Glasgow so much.

THE CASE OF THE MISCHIEVOUS MUFFIN BANDIT
The Case of the Mischievous Muffin Bandit Once upon a time in the quiet town of Crumbleville, there was a quaint little bakery called "Muffin Mania."

Crossroads
The midday sun hung heavy in the sky, casting long shadows across the quiet suburban street. I stood at the familiar crossroads, a place that had come to symbolize the turning points in my life. It was a small intersection, nothing particularly remarkable about it, but it held a special significance for me.
