The Sunday Whirl

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
The mission was to label the seven cages as “for disposal only”. Joe wanted nothing to do with this. He felt the grief already, as the forced testing of animals for miracle solutions to cure a luckless person with a horrible disease ended up in hidden warehouses, unknown to the public. If they knew, would that be a soothing balm, color and guide their reactions, knowing the “necessary” testing might produce a cure? Joe stood, applying the labels, and realized no one wanted to know what price was paid for new medicinal cures.

Life vs Dreams

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

Joe sat in the movie theater, not really paying attention as it was the third time he’d seen the production. His mind drifted to the story of his life. As a young man, he had been on a journey to derive the mystery of his previous dream vocation, to become a minister, or at the very least, a social worker. Joe wanted to lead a crusade to help the less fortunate. He began at a seminary college, full of promise and expectations of what he might achieve. It was in reality, an impossible task and he was discouraged early on. All humanitarian efforts he involved himself in were temporary fixes. Gradually he lost incentive and moved back to the city where he grew up. Joe looked at the third set of boys sitting beside him in the theater, part of the big brothers program at his local church, looking forward to not visiting the cinema again soon. Being a superhero might not be the best example for children.

Possibly it’s red tape that has caused my internet to go blooey lately. This entire week my email and WP is haphazard at best. If you don’t see my likes or comments, I can only say sorry, not from lack of trying. I tried watching my granddaughter’s soccer games and the NFHS network’s cameras were not working—nothing new. They charge to be a member but their service is horrid.
Exasperating as it is, I did experience a good thing. My Roku had stopped working (just another annoyance lately) and when I thought I should move it out from my tv stand, I dropped it. All of a sudden the tv came on and the Roku has been working ever since. This was definitely in the twilight zone area since three family members and I had tried to get it to work previously.
I think it’s the internet service I have that is causing the tv to just go off without warning, slow charging of devices and other irritating issues. Or maybe it’s a secret recording tape by big brother listening in?? You never know😂

Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
“You’re not in Kansas anymore” with a crooked smile. He loved her reaction whenever he gave her that smile. He supported her through this new enterprise, even gave her start up money to complete her idea. Standing in the newly painted office space, a “come in” sign gleaming outside, it was still just the two of them. Her idea was a good one. “Maybe it’ll take a while to catch on”, he offered.

MLMM Saturday Mix

Welcome to the Saturday Mix – No Nonsense, 18 March 2023!
You will be given a nonsensical, made-up word. You will need to come up with your own definition and use it creatively and in context, in your response. It is your choice whether you write using poetry or prose. Your nonsense word this week is: “pitication”. Remember, define it; then use it!

***

The act of wanting to be pitied:

You are such a sorry sight

And I’ve tried with all my might

To ensure your happiness

But my dear you just digress

Into your own world, it’s a pity

You’re very charming, even witty

If you’d give only just one chance

And take a different hopeful stance

You’d be a happier girl I think

Step up and off that pitying brink

Try on a smile for a bit of cure

Certainly a better life it will ensure.

Rory’s Morning Dawdler

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
1. I love the outdoors but rarely get out much. 2. Sensation seeking? Is that a trick question?😂😂
3. Not really. I think we may want to think it’s luck but maybe it’s just good planning.

Thank you Rory and I followed you again with a different email, maybe it will work🙄
