In Other Words
The Buick
Well I see you’ve finally done it!
Yes, I have, my dear. I really couldn’t resist, she’s such a beauty!
A beauty maybe, but it doesn’t run, and you spent a lot having it towed here.
I think it only needs a battery, and small engine repairs. Remember when we’d cruise down to the lake, make love in the moonlight?
Why always do you talk about the past? Aren’t you happy with yourself now? It’s supposed to be the time of our lives.
Oh, June, dear, I can sit in this beauty once again and relive those memories of us together on those moonlit nights, don’t you remember?
June? My name is Betty!

Small sand stones
Grate against my legs
Watching always your return

FOWC: Cacophony
Snoring, coughing, wakening alarm, coffee maker last chugs, toaster popping, car horns, beeping blaring alarms, backup bells from utility vehicles, loading, unloading, train whistles, phone chimes, teenage car radio karaoke, tires screeching to a stop.
Quiet breathing, covers folded, stepping into sunlight, silent hmmm smelling coffee, smoothing butter on toast, slicing grapefruit, soft shower rain, sliding into the front seat, sheltered reflection in rolled up windows.
We all need choices, cacophony or silence.

Life awaits
Sure as the turtle
Homeward bound

Stopped
Plans are changed
This road leads nowhere
Typical path of my life
Map
Hopefully we sleep, rest, wake up to a warm sunny day, coffee or tea, good news heard from the radio or letter or phone call. Our life plan, a nice morning leading to a productive day with good health, job, retirement, and friends and family. We all wish this to be our life and if we have only small portions of each, we are lucky and usually satisfied. It is the unplanned twists and turns along the way that make our lives interesting, exciting, and rewarding.

One Liner Wednesday
Stuntmen and Women
I like action movies and stunts are my favorite. From old westerns with horses to new flying superheroes, crashing cars and martial arts, I love it all. The stunt women in “Wonder Woman” were amazing.
I came upon this article about Chris Brewster who has doubled for Captain America and Daredevil. The video shows a fight in a hallway–violent so be warned. The excerpt is from the article I read in “Variety”.

FFF#22 – Modern Times
There must be something wrong, Joe. There’s no workers here.
It’s not wrong, Mike. It’s these new drones. Much cheaper than actual people picking the cotton or even running cotton pickers or using chemicals. We can easily see when the cotton is ready to harvest, remotely. Then the drones dispense arms and bags simultaneously and load the cotton. They fly till they are fully loaded and then directly deposit it, all hands free so to speak!
