The Rise of the Dragon: The Chinese Balloon Invasion of America
Sure, I can expand on the story "The Rise of the Dragon" to reach 900 words. The summer of 2022 was a time of celebration in America, as people came out of lockdown and finally gathered together once again. Festivals and events were taking place all over the country, and it was at one of these gatherings that the first Chinese dragon balloon was spotted.

Your Place or Mine
Valentine's Day has forced many of us to mourn not only the sad state of our love lives, but the even sadder state of romantic comedies. After a clear shortage, the streamer-driven 90-minute avalanche of meet-cuties was certainly consistent, but consistently underwhelming. There is such laziness. These movies are pumped out by half-sleeping writers and directors and seem to focus on other things.

Lord Willing and Load Bearing
If walls could talk, ya’ll think fellers would still be in the carpentry trade? That they’d keep building houses, with walls asking about their hammer-swingin' and whatnot? Only women could hold conversation and make a home at the same time. Hell, these good old boys would never even unbutton their trousers again indoors if they heard what I had to say. They’d chatter amongst themselves: “Heard tell that the Hen House walls could talk the hide off a cow, so we don’t care how pretty them girls are. We’ll get our jollies in an open field.”

Franki was absolutely spot on about the Orion Portal spa. Not only did I get excellent rest and relief from my would be hangover, but I also woke up to find I’d received several other additional services. A mani/pedi cosmic style, nails on the fingers and toes matching in a lovely blue chrome with metallic glitter that seemed to swirl and move. A fresh haircut, not wildly different than what I came in with, but nicely trimmed, and with complimentary styling product that smelled absolutely divine. And unless I was much mistaken, my left collar bone, which in youth I had broken and without medical attention had healed with a bit of a notch in the middle, was now entirely notchless, as if I had never broken it at all. Considering this spa also followed the non-currency structure of many of the other establishments at the Orion Portal, that was one hell of a free spa treatment.

I can’t say with any amount of certainty what Paris, France is like in my own dimensional version of Earth. I have never been. But Paris in my dear friend Fabian’s dimension is quite a fine place to enjoy an evening of food, drink, consciousness enhancing substances and the sort of free love merriment folks in my reality would reserve for Woodstock.
