The man had giant hands, but his figure wasn't large. Most likely he had the genetics of a large man, but grew up in a famished environment. Still he walked around with the air of a giant. Not a gentle giant who wouldn't swat a fly, but the kind who...

The  fat man wasn't actually that fat. Apparently  Homer Simpson was once considered morbidly  obese . But with changing standards he was no longer considered morbidly so. The fat man felt the same way. One day in his 30s he looked at one of his old suits that he wore...

Growing up Blue never imagined what it would be like to lose somebody. By the time it hit him, he had lost three.

I wandered aimlessly. Waiting to smoke my next  cigar . I already had a buzz going. So I'd hold off as long as possible before stopping in someplace for a  whiskey . You could make a buzz go long that way. The key was not to get into  beer too...

There were pseudo Native American artifacts everywhere. Denver knew they were fake, but he still wanted to buy some. "You want to get some of these?" Blue asked as if he were reading his mind. "No that's alright."

Blue furrowed his brow at him. A family of rotund Spanish speaking folk...

Zack had so many clients . They all wanted his hours. But he had only 24 to give them each day. Well actually he could only give them at most 14. Sleep, eating, and the occasional social event the cause. But 14 was burning him out. So he went down...
