Collarworld: Soft Rains
Jackson, the Golden Retriever who crossed over from the Living World into the afterlife waystation of Collarworld, watched the sun set along the sparkling waters of the Shore of the Cedars. This tranquil portion of Collarworld, a place where beloved pets wait in the afterlife for the glorious reunion with their masters, offered spiritual and…

“No, I am not putting Mexican wrestling on the TV for you, Chuck!” I swear, this was what one of the waitstaff said to me the moment she saw me back at Graney’s Stout for my first Trivia Nights Live game in nearly six months. Oh boo hoo, one time I wanted to watch Lucha…
Read MoreThe Ugliest Fish and the Black Bubble
Yesterday I went to the retinal specialist, Dr. Templar (he’s a bit of a saint), for my second of what I hope will not be too many more vitreal eyeball injections. Ugh. So while I’m waiting in the doctor’s lobby, I notice that he has a fishtank with some very large fish in it. Okay,…

Read MoreSearching for Skeleton Flowers
Recently I caught a glimpse of a very special flower … one whose delicate white petals turn translucently clear after a rainstorm. The plant’s clinical name is Diphylleia Grayi, but it’s more colloquially known as the “Skeleton Flower.” The rare plant comes from marshy, shaded areas in China and in Japan, and they are quite…
Read MoreA Quarter Past 1886 O’Clock
A while back, I got my mitts on an old 1880’s-era stereocard – the kind you put in a special holder and, when you look through it, you can see what looks like real life stereoscopic images. In you don’t have a stereoviewer, you could simply relax your eyes until the two stereo pairs blend…
