The Timeless Dance of Destiny
In the heart of a bustling city, where the rhythm of life echoed through its streets, there lived a man named Samuel. Samuel was an unassuming clockmaker who owned a small shop on a quaint corner. His existence was marked by the ticking of countless timepieces that adorned his shop, each with its own unique tale to tell.

The Hunt for Sugar Mummies: A Comedy of Misconceptions
Johnson had a peculiar notion about Abuja— the city was said to be teeming with sugar mummies ready to lavish money on young men in exchange for companionship. But as he would soon find out, not everything was as it seemed in the bustling capital.

Fortune Favors the Bold
😜 I don't have a motto, but this one might suffice. "Fortune Favors the Bold". Of course, the bold may very well fail spectacularly, but at the very least we can get a good story out of it. They can tell it at my funeral. Presuming they ever find my body. "Can you believe that he actually TRIED that?"

He's so smart that..... Top Story - August 2023.
We are at the perfect time in history to plant the seeds for our individual immortality through AI mythology. The AI equivalent of human folklore handed down from human generation to human generation will happen so fast that we will wake up one day and suddenly everything will be changed. But we have a window of opportunity to recognize the potential and seize it before it happens.

Language Confusion
😜 The problem with being smart is that people eventually expect you to prove it. "So, I hear you speak 17 languages." Of course I don't speak 17 languages fluently. Or even modestly competently. I can manage English and... well... nod my head at the right times when presented with a few other languages.

I'm An Urban Legend
😜 You know what an urban legend is, don't you? One of those stories that people pass along, thinking that they're true, but aren't really. Things like alligators in the sewers of New York. Well, guess what. They're all true. And they're all about me. I'm not only an urban legend. I'm THE urban legend.

My Dogs Love Me, Honest!
Sometimes I worry about whether or not my dogs really love me. Okay, if you're a parent, you're probably saying "sometimes I worry about whether or not my kids really love me", but I didn't raise any children, so I worry about the next best thing. Of course, those of you with neither kids nor dogs are probably saying "sometimes I worry about whether or not Paul is sane." I worry about that too, sometimes.

Yucky Foods!
"Peaches! I hate peaches! Biting into a fuzzy peach is like biting into a fuzzy little kitten!" Everyone has food preferences. The first President Bush hated broccoli, calling them "little trees". My mother can't stand cooked spinach after my little brother and I commented on how algae-eating tropical fish would love boiled spinach. "See, mom, how much it looks like algae?"

What, Me Volunteer?. Top Story - June 2021.
😜 I've been told that there are 135 good reasons to give blood, but for the life of me, when the tech approached me with that big-bore, suck-your-liver-out needle, humming the Flight of the Valkyrie, I couldn't think of a single one.
