Marc Love was surprised to learn that Drew had a phD from  Cambridge . Not because Drew didn't seem smart but because he was here now in America working as a cashier at a grocery store. Love wanted to ask how he came to do that but didn't want to...

Stoner pt 1

"I get drunk sometimes. But getting high's better" Kenny said.

What fascinates me now is for all the marijuana that Kenny talked, his descriptions now seem cartoonish. Maybe he had used general, vague descriptions because he knew I, being inexperienced, wouldn't have a clue what a bowl or bong was. But...

Streak City
Arrival

It was almost noon. Thick fog made it still feel like early morning to J. When he had first climbed on deck 30 minutes earlier, a sigh escaped as he imagined what it would've been like to have just flown instead. Somebody squinting his eyes and pointing towards the thick...

Thugs and Fighting

My favorite reaction to somebody crying over how nobody could ever be interested in what they have to offer is to bring up how big gangster rap had been in the late 90s and early 2000s. Without the music industry's creative portrayal of criminal, violent, drug dealers living in the...

Ken's new room

Just out of college I still believed that children cared for the same things as adults. If I hadn't washed my hair I'd be scared that the kid would find flakes in my hair and find me gross. Or if a kid found out I didn't have a job I...

Dan and Ken

Joan always used the phrase going into town whenever she went to Hastings. Often Dan and I would either be playing video games upstairs in our room or playing video games downstairs in Kenny's new bedroom so she would have to yell it up or down a stairwell. She also...

Documenting Adagia
Adagia after 14 weeks -- the first microphase

Another six weeks in the bag. Building is done. Now it's time to step back to clean and tidy up. And most importantly... reflect.

Here's what took place 👇


Entering these six weeks I had been tunnel-visioning the Tribes User interaction. This was because my goal was to help writers work on...

Snack City

The fridge always had at least one 2-liter pop, the pantry a wide selection of cereal, chips and other salty snacks, and sweets like Ding Dongs. I remember having to get used to Dan casually taking a bag and pouring himself a deep, wide bowl of salty potato chips. 

"You want...

Fat Dan

One thing Kenny excelled at besides football, wrestling, and weightlifting was pitting me and Dan against each other. I laugh lighthearted at his tactics now after all these years but back then I craved Ken's approval wherever I could snatch it. 

Even before I lived with them Ken constantly made fun...

Our very own Monday Night RAW pt 2

Dan was about an inch taller, but much larger. By this time, which was around 8th grade, I think he was around 200 pounds. Thankfully for me, he wasn't muscular like Kenny otherwise I wouldn't stand a chance.

Dan was also shirtlesg. Instead of blue jeans he wore basketball shorts. I...
