We’ve been plunged into darkness, the Lope and I. For reasons unknown, and without warning, our home internet connection went down at about 1:00 this afternoon, and we’ve been helpless ever since.
I restarted the computer; I restarted the wireless server; I even restarted the cable modem. Nothing. The green light simply would not blink. The [...]
From "Lightweight Unsupported Motorcycle Travel for Terminal Cases"
I’ve been on the lookout for distinctive writing (so if you’ve got any, do please point me in its direction, or vice versa) and today I found a doozy.

Read more >>My Favorite Color
I recently was asked to complete a writing assignment, detailing, in 250 words or less: – “how to make a delicious peanut butter and jelly sandwich”- “a small adventure during a child’s walk to school”- “your favorite color”or- “how you would encourage a room of people to donate to your favorite charity.”
