“Of course I’m pleased, Sara!” Foggie admired her reflection in the sea. “I enjoy being different. See all the ordinary lighthouses up and down the coast? Why would I want to look like everyone else? And this new spiky updo? You are the best! I also appreciate you coming to me, because of course I must remain stationery. Not everyone would be so accommodating.”

Foggie was just one of the appreciative lighthouse structures in the world. Sara had flown to remote locations to serve her loyal customers. One of the things she enjoyed most about these excursions was the gossip. As in any beauty parlor, there were always interesting stories related by the clientele.

“Well Foggie, I must be going now. I have to catch a red eye to New England. They really are not served well there, and hardly any difference between customers. But I’m gaining on them and soon they will each have their own personality. Toodleoo!”

I said to him, “Charlie, that’s no way to protest!” But you know Charlie, he’s such a “I’m king of the world” type, thinks he’s invincible, and everyone loves him. He figured the only way people would see that anyone should be accepted to join the military, was to make a spectacle of himself. Brazened tattoos, pink shirt, and all! Gotta love Charlie, right, Dad?

One-Liner Wednesday, August 5th – Do you ever?

And reading the latest interview T had Monday night isn’t all there is to laugh about. Here’s a guy from Twitter that struck me funny:

Joe was an extraordinary artist. Unfortunately, he was the only one that thought so. Using his inheritance, he traveled the world to see art concepts and artists’ works, ancient and new. Coming home he painted for days and decided to take his works to galleries to be sold. After two month’s time beseeching gallery owners to feature his works, he gave up. At midnight he gathered every type of paint and marker he owned, stepped outside his apartment, and what you see above is the result.

Beneath the surface of the night

Disturbing thoughts are revealed

Daily sunny humor fades

Reality looms in the darkness

Sleepless while words and thoughts previously hidden

Show themselves in vivid color.

August is a time to rest

Nature’s works of summer are complete

Each seedling raised to flower

Every tree full of fruit

All berry bushes laden

August is the time to revel in her work.

Lying underneath evanescent stars, he spoke softly, bringing more weight to his words. “I want to be forever in your arms, lost in hours with no break in your attention, and I could not sketch a more satisfying and lovely scene.”

With his acceptance of my verecund nature, I suddenly realized the patient faith to find my one desire was captured in that sentence. I no longer had an obfuscate picture of what I dreamed of, he was here, solider.
