3TC and Three Line Tales
Well there’s another paycheck loss you made. We traveled five hundred miles for this? When are you going to realize we aren’t made out of money? You need to smarten up, Joe. Everything you see on the boob tube isn’t real ya know!
It wasn’t on TV, it was on Twitter. It said you could earn money at Burning Man. Some members of Black Rock City create art and what we live in is art, admit it. We live in art! I thought we could sell this bus to a collector and buy a real home!
Martha just shook her head and sat back in her folding deck chair watching the big man burn.

Joni Mitchell
One of the albums I have, “Court and Spark” has so many great songs, but this one shows her unique voice very well. “People’s Parties”

What you are on the inside
The hard bones and
The soft heart
Let it all show
With compassion as a guide
We will feel.

FFftPP 2-12-20 – “There’s a Good Dog”
“What has he found now, George? I hope it’s nothing dangerous! Remember last week he brought a huge dead rat onto the front porch?”
“No worries my dear. This is an indestructible toy I bought at Pet Playthings, that new store, last week. Instead of a sharp possibly dangerous stick, you can throw this instead. He won’t know that it’s not a stick and retrieve it as such.”
Buddy the dog always wanted to please his master, George. Buddy longed for a good chew on a sapling branch or a hearty beef knuckle, but he would tolerate this foul tasting plastic device for a few more days. Then he will bury it somewhere it couldn’t be found, maybe alongside those plastic bones that are supposed to make his breath smell nice.

Noise Pollution or Comforting Sound?
What do you hear? At night when you are trying to sleep or during the day when you’re trying to read or write? I admit I love some of the familiar sounds such as the steam engine here in Cheyenne, chugging and whistling as it takes small tourist excursions. The intersection of two interstate highways is very close, less than a mile, so I hear traffic constantly. We are also a railroad hub, so regular trains heard.
I am used to it, semis, car horns, and I also have a fire station close by so the occasional siren and huge low horns as other drivers refuse to give way to emergency vehicles. A low flying helicopter just passed over, and I enjoy hearing them, and planes, since we have an Air Force base here. Many planes are tested here because of our high winds.
Last night a new sound, especially odd here in one of the driest states in the union, a fog horn. I have no idea if it was someone’s cell phone with a foghorn ring or what, but it was that distinct sound. There are no waterways near me. So, what could it be? Any ideas? It made me laugh even though I was trying to sleep.😊
