"What do you mean he left?" Danny said. He could feel his face getting hot, he'd been prepping all night. Didn't have time do deal with another fire. Recently that was all he was doing, is putting out fires.

"He, I don't know man, just took off. He ran. He,...

Ode to Rainbows

There is something about a rainbow. That I get caught totally off guard. Its so strange, a grey boring sky lit up, all of a sudden, by a arc of colors. I can't image what people must of thought back in the day. Like before they had fire, or even...

Chuck: WFH

Chuck woke up that day and checked his computer. He saw a friend from back home post "Your network is your networth". Lazily he checked the various apps, like leafing through a magazine, he appeared in 20 searches that week, and he was getting noticed. He laughed at the thought....

Ice Chips as reply to white collar

Juno had barely slept last night. It was hot, and hotter next to these grills. But he kept going, periodic relief came from a fan plugged in near the freezer, that every so often would blow cool air down his aisle. He was in charge of three things warm the...

Running Thoughts

Chuck

A screen booted on, just as the first coffee was coursing through his veins. Smooth jazz played in the back. It was like most mornings. The bosses check your mouse movements so you gotta get up in time, at least in time just to start everything and make it look...

Chris

Chris now has a kid I don't remember her name, but when we were in school together no one thought he could do that. Its not he was voted least likely to have a kid, or anyone said that specifically but just he wasn't destined for greatness or fatherhood or...

Improv

Back on that improv, been away for awhile. I know improve comedy is kind of lame.  But it has something very theoretically beautiful to it. Similar to Jazz but more approachable. Could be a less cool jazz. The acapella version of standup comedy. 

In it though the whole idea is...

Subtraction

On the way to work I had a thought about people, specifically this paper. Where researchers found that when trying to problem solve people tend to use addition rather than subtraction . Addition in the sense of adding variables to find a solution rather than subtracting. The authors give an...
